Abstract

This study develops an analytic framework for joint modeling of age-based preventive maintenance and (s, Q) spare component provisioning policy for k-out-of-n:G systems with i.i.d. nonrepairable components. We assume that during system maintenance, instead of discarding the whole system, only failed components are replaced by spares if the on-handspares are sufficient. The objective is to determine a proper preventive maintenance interval and the ordering parameters to minimize the undiscounted long run average cost under a system availability constraint. Our study sheds light on the lumpy demand scenario in the problems of joint modeling of preventive maintenance and spare provisioning.
