Availability assessment is one of the core processes in reliable systems. Downtime can be
reduced in many ways, from preventing errors through proper testing to reducing …

Effective maintenance management is essential to reduce the adverse effect of equipment
failure to operation. This can be accomplished by accurately predicting the equipment failure …

Time dependent availability is an important index used for evaluation of operational
performance of repairable industrial systems. Traditionally, Markov analysis procedures are …

Purpose–The purpose of this paper is to propose a novel hybrid approach called as Markov
System Dynamics (MSD) approach which combines the Markov approach with system …

Consideration effect of repair strategy on availability for non-redundant system using extended
Markov models Page 1 22 CADSM’2011, 23-25 February, 2011, Polyana-Svalyava …

In this paper, a novel Markov system dynamics (MSD) simulation frame work for the
availability modeling of a repairable system is developed. The proposed method combines …

Abstract System availability is considered to be an important measure of system
performance. This chapter deals with modeling and analysis of complex mechanical …

Condition Based Maintenance (CBM)) is a concept that has become more and more
important as the cost, size, and complexity of mechanical components has increased. As …

The focus of this paper is on the time dependent availability modeling and analysis of
repairable multi component systems. Analytical techniques become very complicated and …

The increasing level of system complexity in the current competitive market implies that
efficient asset management is of paramount importance, particularly for systems with costly …
