In order to make the decision of preventive maintenance asphalt pavement, this paper analyses related research, and finds problems in evaluation index system maintenance. Based on characteristics pavement actual demand, is constructed.

The previous studies about the maintenance systems were dealt with defining the evaluation criteria, grouping them, and using different techniques for evaluating. The main problem is that maintenance subsystems and the relationship between and within them in order to a reliable evaluation have never been identified before.The contribution of this study is realizing the four maintenance su...

the present paper deals with development of a simulation model for the performance evaluation of feed water system of a thermal power plant using markov birth-death process and probabilistic approach. in present paper, the feed water system consists of four subsystems. after drawing transition diagram for feed water system, differential equations are developed and then solved recursively using ...

This paper proposes an opportunistic maintenance policy for the multi-unit series production system. This proposed maintenance policy is on the basis of the failure rate analysis, which is more realistic than age-based or time-based opportunistic replacement models. When a system halts for performing preventive maintenance or opportunistic maintenance, the alternative decision of replacement an...

the collaboration between actors is fundamentally in reality. In the industrial world, notably maintenance context many experts from diverse disciplines can be called to work all together on same breakdowns. The distance, experts’ availability, displacement difficulty, etc. constitutes serious problems which impede the success of collaborative work in companies. So, the collaborative virtual en...

preventive maintenance scheduling of generating units is addressed as a long-term scheduling in power system studies aiming to increase the reliability incorporating cost reduction. it consists of knowing which generating units should be shut down for regular safety inspection. in this paper, a new formulation of preventive maintenance scheduling associated with cost reduction index (cri) is pr...
