Maintenance, particularly preventive maintenance, is a crucial measure to ensure the operational reliability, availability, and profitability of complex industrial systems such as nuclear asset, wind turbines, railway trains, etc. Powered by continuous advancement sensor technology, condition-based group maintenance has become available enhance execution efficiency accuracy plans. The majority ...

General preventive maintenance model for the components of a system, which improves the reliability to ‘as good as new,’ was used to optimize the maintenance cost. The cost function of a maintenance policy was minimized under given availability constraint. On the other hand, in order to ensure appropriate reliability and availability, the development of the optimal maintenanc...

The paper deals with a development of the rolling horizon approach introduced recently for grouping maintenance strategies of multi-component systems by integrating two efficient optimization algorithms. The proposed approach can help to construct an optimal maintenance planning with a given availability constraint under limited repairmen. Thanks to the rolling horizon spirit, the maintenance p...
