.... Periodic cleaning, implemented as preventive maintenance, mitigates these losses; however, it also incurs costs. Minimizing total system cost therefore requires determining the optimal cleaning interval based on techno–economic considerations. This study develops a computational optimization framework...

...Uthman Said Purpose Preventive maintenance (PM) policies for repairable systems often assume constant effectiveness and uniform failure consequences. This paper integrates age-dependent PM effectiveness with severity-aware estimation to produce availability-optimizing PM schedules that are both...

...Uthman Said Purpose This paper develops and validates a preventive maintenance (PM) optimization framework that jointly accounts for (1) interval-dependent maintenance effectiveness and (2) heterogeneous failure severity in repairable systems. Design/methodology/approach This study extends...

...Youssef Sadraoui; Mohamed Er-Ratby; Moulay Saddik Kadiri; Abdessamad Kobi Purpose This study aims to evaluate and enhance maintenance strategies for wind turbines by transitioning from conventional fixed interval preventive maintenance to optimized and predictive maintenance approaches...

... maintenance strategies in recent years. Liu and Peng (2016) stated that common models often do not consider how repairs or preventive maintenance affect the condition of a structure. They suggested that analysis of baseline log-linear intensity functions would help make better maintenance plans...

...Mohamed Noomane Darghouth Purpose This study aims to investigate a two-unit cold standby system subject to practical operational factors, including operator fatigue, preventive maintenance and imperfect repairs. The system operates under a policy requiring the operator to rest after...

.... Condition-based maintenance (CBM) is a preventive maintenance strategy which considers information about the equipment condition to recommend appropriate maintenance actions. Its main objective is to prevent functional failures or the significant reduction of the equipment performance. Thus, the application...

...Farouq Alhourani; Jean Essila; Bernie Farkas Purpose The purpose of this paper is to develop an efficient and effective preventive maintenance (PM) plan that considers machines’ maintenance needs in addition to their reliability factor. Design/methodology/approach Similarity coefficient method...

...Abbas Al-Refaie; Hiba Almowas Purpose This research developed and examined a mathematical model for concurrent corrective and preventive maintenance policy of a system of series configuration. Design/methodology/approach A mathematical model was developed to maximize availability, and maximal...

...Samane Babaeimorad; Parviz Fattahi; Hamed Fazlollahtabar Purpose The purpose of this paper is to present an integrated strategy for inventory control and preventive maintenance planning for a single-machine production system with increasing failure rates. Design/methodology/approach...

E-maintenance is beneficial to semiconductor equipment...

... finding the optimal preventive maintenance (PM) cycle and planning horizon. Design/methodology/approach A model based on the mathematical theory of reliability is developed to minimize the total maintenance cost by jointly finding the optimal couple: PM cycle T* and planning horizon...

...Sunil Dutta; Narala Suresh Kumar Reddy Purpose Production schedules, if not met as per timelines may result in heavy losses to a company in terms of its standing and the overall profit. Production scheduling is generally planned by not taking preventive maintenance schedules into consideration...

... Manufacturing (WCM)-based tools, in order to obtain a model which can be used for preventive maintenance in different industrial contexts. Design/methodology/approach In this research, a conceptual framework of preventive maintenance was described and then it was evaluated through a qualitative study...

... Preventive maintenance Imperfect maintenance Corrective maintenance Most of the industrial systems (such as trains, nuclear power plants, planes, etc.) are maintained in operating condition through maintenance activities carried out to restore or retain the health of their deteriorating or failed...

... a decision model with environment-based preventive maintenance for the repairable redundant system. Referring to the k-out-of-n model and Proportional Hazard Model, the reliability analysis is completed for the redundant system affected by internal and external issues. Meanwhile, the maintenance cost...

... of failures. The countermeasures were drawn, and the preventive maintenance (PM) plan was revised and carried out. The total maintenance, the PaM and reactive maintenance workload, was obtained, and then the improvements were determined. The values of availability were also obtained. Findings Previously...
