Application of physical failure models to enable usage and load based maintenance
TL;DR: Two new maintenance concepts are proposed, that combine the benefits of traditional static concepts and condition based maintenance, that apply usage or load parameters that are monitored during service to perform a physical model-based assessment of the system condition.

Explicit results for wear processes in a Markovian environment
TL;DR: This work derives the failure time distribution and moments in terms of Laplace-Stieltjes transforms by analyzing the Markov additive process {(X(t),Z(t)):t>=0} and demonstrates its applicability on an example problem.

Reliability of Complex Devices in Random Environments.
E. Çinlar,Süleyman Özekici +1 more
TL;DR: The authors introduce intrinsic age processes, one for each component, to handle such dependence in multi-component devices because of their joint dependence on the environmental conditions.

Availability of periodically inspected systems with markovian wear and shocks
TL;DR: In this paper, a periodically inspected system with hidden failures is analyzed, where the rate of wear is modulated by a continuous-time Markov chain and additional damage is induced by a Poisson shock process.
