    Approximate Calculations of Maintenance Policies for Weibull Distribution Using Exponential Distribution

    It is always easy to get analytical formulas of optimal maintenance policies with exponential failure times in reliability theory, however, it might be difficult sometimes to discuss them theoretically with a ...

    Replacement Policies with Independent Damages

    In general, an operating unit degrades gradually with additive damage cumulated by shocks in a stochastic way.

    Other Maintenance Models

    In order to conduct safe and economical maintenance strategy, modeling and analysis of the damage due to shocks in an analytical way plays an important role in reliability theory and engineering.

    Replacement Overtime and Middle Policies

    Originally, replacement last was discussed to replace an operating unit without stop** successive working cycles by Zhao and Nakagawa (Eur J Oper Res 223:141–149, 2012, [7]); however, the approach of replacing ...

    Replacement Policies with Maintenances

    Maintenance actions, such as preventive and corrective maintenances [1], minor and major maintenances [39], routine and non-routine maintenances [40, 41], etc., have been proposed in pairs in literatures.

    Replacement Policies with Repairs

    In real situation, the damaged unit has probabilities of minor failures (or malfunctions) at shock times, in which case, minimal repairs that cost less are always considered to resume quickly the operation of ...
