Preventive maintenance of technical systems as part of risk management
(AGH University of Science and Technology Press, 2008) Okulewicz, Józef; Salamonowicz, Tadeusz
Technical objects used in logistics systems should not only be reliable, but also pose low risk arising from potential failures. Results of damage to or failure of complex objects depend on time of the failure duration and thus on the time of repairs, as well as on reliability structure and reliability characteristics of object elements. The risk connected with complex objects with serial reliability structure, both reparable and unreparable ones, was specified and analysed in the paper. The risk was mitigated by preventive replacements of object elements on the basis of statistical diagnosing. A computer simulation model was used to confirm a feasibility of minimising overall costs of preventive maintenance and failure effects.
