With the help of advanced digital technologies, product managers can use monitored mission cycles to sustain reliability. In this study, a random warranty model and replacement next (RRN) are designed through-life reliability with cycles. The warranty, called two-stage two-dimensional free repair (2DFRW), be carried out during stage. ‘whichever occurs first last’ is used distinguish coverage ra...

In this paper we study the distributional properties (mean, variance, characteristic function) of the discounted warranty cost (DWC) for general warranty programs including free replacement (FRW) pro rata (PRW) and FRW/PRW in the context of perfect repair. Since only failure times and types are needed in the derivation of these properties, the reliability of the systems is modeled according to ...

employing remanufactured and refurbished products are among the new strategies that companies used to raise their profits as well as protects environment. although used product equipment gives an opportunity to purchase latest technology, customers are doubtful about quality and reliability of these products. because of limitation that developing countries faces in buying new products, some cou...

Warranty is a powerful marketing tool for the manufacturer and a good protection for both the manufacturer and the customer. However, warranty always involves additional costs to the manufacturer, which depend on product reliability characteristics and warranty parameters. This paper presents an approach to optimisation of warranty parameters for known product failure distribution to reduce the...
