Ensuring a consistent, continuous, and efficient spare parts supply is critical issue that must be addressed in the equipment support system. In order to effectively improve coverage level handle common asymmetry information present practical applications, transport vehicle routing scheduling model was further optimized. We integrated supportability requirements uncertainty theory into better d...

Unexpected system failures pose significant problems in power industry and most manufacturing companies. In some cases, a critical component failure can incur catastrophic events and huge economic loss. To maintain machines at high level of reliability, some companies perform time-based preventive maintenance or age-based preventive maintenance to avoid sudden failure of machines. Usually, prev...

In this study we use a flexible policy of spare part management in the context of airports corrective maintenance activities and provide a new approach for mathematically evaluate the performances of systems with lateral transshipments in case of one-for-one ordering policies, transfer times and peaked demand. This study deals with the spare optimization of a large logistics company, in charge ...

Purpose – An aircraft manufacturer faces the problem of allocating inventory to a set of distributed warehouses in response to random, nonstationary demands. There is particular interest in managing high value, low volume spare parts which must be available to respond to low-frequency demands in the form of random failures of major components. The aircraft fleet is young and in expansion. In ad...
