A high‐performance maintenance strategy for stochastic selective maintenance

Abstract

SummarySelective maintenance is often applied in many industrial environments where maintenance is performed between sequence missions. When the mission time is stochastic and there are multiple maintenance workers with different capacities, the system reliability of the next work mission can be maximized by using a stochastic model under the constraint of the limit maintenance time. The optimal maintenance strategy is obtained with an optimization algorithm. A simulation was performed to verify the validity and feasibility of the proposed model.
