Barata, J. and Guedes Soares, C. (2001), “Evaluating the Availability of Maintained Systems with Monte Carlo Simulation”, Proceedings of the Safety and Reliability International Conference (KONBIN’01), 22-25 May, Szczyrk, Poland, pp. 9-17
The main purpose of this work is to model continuously-monitored deteriorating systems by using Monte Carlo simulation. The principles of the modelling are described for a non-repairable single component subjected to stochastic degradation. The modelling is then genralized to multi-component repairable systems. The effects of a preventive "on-condition" maintenance strategy are investigated through the study of some desired reliability/availability characteristics.
