Track: Reliability and Maintenance
Abstract
This paper deals with a two-dimensional maintenance service contract (MSC) characterized by time and usage limits. We consider that an agent offers the two dimensional MSC and promises a high availability of the equipment. The subsequent preventive maintenance (PM) actions are carried out to ensure the availability target. The optimal non-periodic PM policy is obtained to maximize the availability. Numerical examples are presented to illustrate the subsequent PM intervals meeting the availability target.
