Abstract

Modern production management patterns, in which multi-unit (e.g. an aircraft fleet) are managed in a holistic manner, have brought new challenges for multi-unit maintenance decision-making. To schedule a good maintenance plan, not only does the individual aircraft maintenance have to be considered, but also the maintenance of the other aircraft in fleet have to be taken into account. Condition-based maintenance (CBM) is a maintenance scheme which recommends maintenance decisions according to equipment status collected by condition monitor over a period of time. Evaluating risk is necessary for scheduling appropriate maintenance, avoiding aircraft losses and maintaining the repairable components at a high-reliable state. In this paper, a novel two-models-fusion framework is proposed to predict the reliability of aircraft structures subjected to fatigue loads. Furthermore, we established a fleet maintenance decision-making model based on CBM for the maintenance of fatigue structures. The model concentrates on both minimising fleet maintenance cost and maximising fleet availability, overcoming the shortcomings of traditional fleet CBM research, which has simply focused on one or the other of these parameters. Finally, a case study regarding a fleet of 10 aircraft is conducted, and the results indicated that the proposed model efficiently generates outcomes that meet the schedule requirements.
