Abstract

This paper presents a dynamic grouping maintenance strategy for multi-component systems with positive economic dependence, which implies that combining maintenance activities is cheaper than performing maintenance on components separately. Preventive maintenance durations and occurrences of maintenance activities within the scheduling horizon are considered. Moreover, in presence of opportunities with limited durations in which some maintenance activities could be executed with reduced maintenance costs, the present paper proposes a new algorithm to optimally update online the grouping maintenance planning. A numerical example of a five components system is finally introduced to illustrate the proposed dynamic grouping maintenance strategy.
