Disruptive events in complex manufacturing systems (CMS), characterised by labour-intensive processes and repetitive activities, render these vulnerable. In order to tackle this challenge, an approach for resilience-based system design optimisation is proposed. The approach: (i) introduces a dynamic multi-dimensional resilience metric; (ii) formulates the as multi-objective problem improve CMSs...

Reliability optimization is an important step in industrial systems design. In order to develop a reliable system, designers may introduce different redundant technologies with the same functionality in parallel. In this paper, each technology is assumed to be composed of series components. The obtained configuration belongs to the series-parallel systems. The presented tool is for the design o...

Nowadays, large-scale systems perform various missions with multiple functions during life cycles for satisfying the customer’s various needs. Therefore, we should develop the robust and attractive systems and be accurately evaluated prior to development of the system. System availability is often considered to represent the performance of the repairable systems and can be increased through imp...
