This paper proposes two condition-based opportunistic maintenance policies with two-
phase inspections for continuously degraded systems with real-time monitoring and periodic …

This article offers an extensive historical review of condition-based maintenance (CBM)
models, focusing on the impact of imperfect inspections. It examines the progression and …

Maintenance strategies play a crucial role in ensuring the reliability and performance of
complex systems. Imperfect inspections, characterized by the probabilities of false positives …

This paper proposes a new maintenance policy for protection systems which fail due to
competing causes: internal deterioration and fatal external shocks. The study is motivated by …

This study proposes a model that integrates the schedule of a sequence of resumable jobs
and inspection policy in a critical single-component system, following a deterioration …

This paper presents a Deep Reinforcement Learning (DRL)-based optimization approach
for determining the optimal inspection and maintenance planning of a scrap-based steel …

Delay time models (DTM) for series systems divide the failure of a system into the
appearance of defects and the delay until the breakdown. During this work, we developed …

This paper proposes a condition-based maintenance policy for the two-phase Wiener
degradation process components. The main contribution of this article is to provide the time …

The pantograph was invented in 1879 by Walter Reichel, an engineer at Siemens & Halske
of Germany (Rotoli et al., 2016). The pantograph, during the 20th century, gradually …

In the era of the fourth industrial revolution, technological trends are characterizing all
sectors of society including the digital skills. In this scenario, the working sphere is changing …
