Reliability and Maintenance Optimization in Multi-indenture Systems

Reliability and Maintenance of Multi-indenture Systems analyzes and discusses the optimization problems of the multi-indenture system, providing theoretical and practical insights for reliability and maintenance engineers and managers. The book combines computer simulation, operational research, reliability engineering and numerical optimization to solve practical reliability problems. After a thorough introduction to multi-indenture systems and the reliability problems associated with them, the general framework of the simulation system is proposed and explained, along with more detailed explanations of the applications.Complex hierarchical system structures have become more common in applications such as rail, aircraft and weaponry due to increasing requirements for flexibility and functionality. As a consequence, it has become increasingly difficult to use analytical methods to calculate and improve system reliability and availability of these large complex systems. However, recent research has provided proven methodologies for the application of simulation systems to tackle problems including redundancy optimization in the design phase, optimal maintenance, and spare parts provisioning in the operation phase, hence this book is an ideal contribution to the conversation. Provides in-depth explanations on how to design and apply simulation systems to reliability and maintenance problemsDiscusses how to reduce system maintenance time by determining line replacement units (LRU) in multi-indenture systemsDescribes how to adopt preventive maintenance to effectively maintain the system while optimizing the system structure INDICE: 1.
