This article considers a condition‐based maintenance for a system subject to deterioration. The deterioration is modeled by a non‐homogeneous gamma process, more precisely the gamma process and the preventive maintenance are imperfect or worse than old. The corrective maintenance actions are as good as new. The maintenance efficiency or non‐efficiency parameters as well as the deterioration parameters are considered to be unknown. The monitoring data under consideration give indirect information on the maintenance parameters. Therefore, an expected maximum algorithm is applied for parameter estimation.

Predicting the Remaining Useful Lifetime (RUL) of a system has become one of the primary goals of engineering and reliability researchers. RUL prediction is based on the measurement data collected from sensors (e.g. vibration data, temperature data). The collected data is may be inaccurate owing to sensor problems. These problems are often ignored or modeled by a Gaussian noise in most previous work. However, due to various operation circumstances and the aging impact, the sensor itself will ultimately deteriorate and its performance will deteriorate. The Gaussian noise with a constant mean is then not appropriate to fully capture the sensor degradation. In this context, this study focuses on predicting the RUL considering the sensor degradation. For this purpose, a joint model of sensor degradation and system degradation is firstly developed. In this model, the sensor degradation is modeled by Wiener and Gamma processes instead of Gaussian noise. Then, different estimation methods based on the particle filter, a popular model-based technique, were proposed to predict the RUL based on the joint degradation model. To study the performances of our methods, numerical analyzes were carried out. The obtained results confirm the performance and advantages of the proposed methods.

We consider a repairable system modeled by a semi-Markov process (SMP), where we include a geometric renewal process for system degradation upon repair, and replacement strategies for non-repairable failure or upon N repairs. First Pérez-Ocón and Torres-Castro studied this system (Pérez-Ocón and Torres-Castro in Appl Stoch Model Bus Ind 18(2):157–170, 2002) and proposed availability calculation using the Laplace Transform. In our work, we consider an extended state space for up and down times separately. This allows us to leverage the standard theory for SMP to obtain all reliability related measurements such as reliability, availability (point and steady-state), mean times and rate of occurrence of failures of the system with general initial law. We proceed with a convolution algebra, which allows us to obtain final closed form formulas for the above measurements. Finally, numerical examples are given to illustrate the methodology.

In this paper, the maintenance optimization problem of multi-component system is considered. It is assumed that the exact cause of system failure might be masked. That is, the exact cause of failure is unknown, and we only know that it belongs to a set called mask set. Both opportunistic perfect preventive maintenance (OPPM) and perfect corrective maintenance are considered. Threshold of OPPM and inter-inspection interval are considered as decision parameters which are optimized using long-run cost rate criteria. The applicability of the proposed maintenance policy is investigated using an illustrative example.

This paper proposes a maintenance policy for a k-out-of-n: F system operating to fulfil several jobs without interruptions. The system is replaced when the Nth job completes or at the kth failure, whichever occurs first. So, there are some non-failed components when a replacement is done. These components can be sold as secondhand products to continue working in other systems for a while. The price of them is also considered in the proposed maintenance policy. An optimal maintenance policy is studied to minimise long-run average cost under the constraint of relative mean operating time. Comprehensive numerical studies are done to assess the effect of the model parameters on the optimal solutions. Also, to demonstrate the applicability of the proposed plan, a data set related to wind turbine generator failures is considered as a case study.

Most of the stochastic models adopted to describe the evolution over time of degradation phenomena of technological units assume that their degradation level can increase indeterminately. However, these degradation phenomena are typically subjected to obvious bounds, if only because technological units have finite size. In fact, very often, this inconsistency does not significantly affect the effectiveness of unbounded degradation models, since degrading units are usually assumed to fail when their degradation level exceeds a failure threshold that is much smaller than the obvious bounds. Nevertheless, in some cases, due to the very nature of the underlying degradation mechanism, less obvious bounds could exist, which are not necessarily far from the failure thresholds. The question that arises is whether the use of a bounded degradation model, in this latter type of experimental situations, could be beneficial. For this purpose, since a bounded degradation process should necessarily have dependent increments, in this paper we investigate the potential of a new bounded transformed gamma (TG) process to adequately describe bounded degradation phenomena and predict their future evolution. Differently from other existing gamma process based bounded degradation models, here the upper bound is treated as an unknown parameter that has to be estimated from the available degradation data. A numerical example is presented where the parameters of the proposed model are estimated from simulated data. Then the model is applied to a set of wear measures of cylinder liners that equip a diesel engine for marine propulsion, which have also stimulated this study. Model parameters are estimated by using the maximum likelihood (ML) method. The fitting ability of the proposed new bounded process is compared to that of an unbounded gamma process, which was previously adopted to analyze the same liner wear data. Obtained results are critically discussed in the paper.

In this paper, a gradually deteriorating system with imperfect repair is considered. The deterioration is modeled by a stationary stochastic process. The system fails once the deterioration level exceeds a given threshold L. At failure, an imperfect repair is performed and the deterioration level is reduced to a fixed value r, say. The system can be repaired n − 1 times and will be replaced after the nth failure. The article aims to estimate the parameters of the proposed deterioration process based on the observed failures. To this end we consider the Wiener and Gamma processes which are the most common used stochastic process models. In Wiener process, an explicit expression for the estimators is obtained. Birnbaum-Saunders approximation is extended to estimate the parameters in Gamma process. An optimal replacement policy is also discussed. Finally, a Monte-Carlo simulation is conducted to investigate the performance of estimators.

This paper deals with statistical inference for lifetime data in presence of imperfect maintenance. For the maintenance model, the Sheu and Griffith model is considered. The lifetime distribution belongs to exponential distribution class. The maximum likelihood estimation procedure of the model parameters is discussed, and confidence intervals are provided using the asymptotic likelihood theory and bootstrap approach. Based on conjugate and discrete priors, Bayesian estimators of the model parameters are developed under symmetric and asymmetric loss functions. The proposed methodologies are applied to simulated data and sensitivity analysis to different parameters and data characteristics is carried out. The effect of model misspecification is also assessed within this class of distributions through a Monte Carlo simulation study. Finally, two datasets are analyzed for demonstrative aims.

This paper considers the degradation modelling of a non-monotonous health indicator. A Variance Gamma process is proposed for the degradation modelling and its calibration in presence of data is discussed. The remaining useful lifetime estimation based on this model is considered and its sensitivity to parameters estimates is analysed. The model is applied to real data of leakage rate of centrifugal pump. Eventually, an imperfect maintenance policy is proposed and optimized.

In this article, we consider a single-unit system that operates in a dynamic environment and is subject to shocks. Shocks only affect the system (nonlethal shock) and do not cause sudden failure, and arrive according to a counting process. Both homogeneous and nonhomogeneous Poisson processes are considered for shocks arrival modeling. In order to model the dynamic environment and consider shock effects, a multiplicative failure rate model is proposed. Both corrective maintenance and shock-based preventive maintenance are considered, and two policies are proposed. In the first proposed policy, the system is replaced by a new one upon a failure or based on the predetermined number of shocks, whichever comes first, while the second proposed policy extends the first one by considering an imperfect preventive repair at each inspection time. The inspection times are periodic and the interinspection interval is considered as a decision variable. The proposed policies are optimized according to long-run cost rate criteria. Numerical examples illustrate the applicability and efficiency of the proposed policies.
