Abstract

A generalized model for determining minimum-cost preventive maintenance schedules of a maintained reliability system is presented. Through balancing the cost of system failure during operation against the cost of planned maintenance, an optimal policy is established which minimizes the expected cost rate. A simple equation to determine the optimal period between maintenances for a system with the known failure distribution is acquired, and the calculation for the system with Gamma failure distribution is given.
