The composite plate is epoxy-bonded to the tension flange of the beam to increase its stiffness and strength. Seven rectangular and one T-beam, retrofitted with composite plates, were tested to failure under symmetrical 4-point bending. The load versus deflection and the load versus strain in the composite plate, steel rebar and the extreme compression fiber of concrete were measured and plotted for the midspan section throughout the entire range of

Abstract:

Different approaches have been suggested for determining the optimal mix of repair projects for a pavement network. These methods range from random selection to sophisticated mathematical optimization models. This paper presents an analysis of several questions regarding the effectiveness of three possible selection methods. First, the performance of three separate single year project selection methods on different size networks is assessed over a broad funding spectrum. The results indicate that as funding levels increase, the benefit obtained by different selection methods converge.

Abstract:

There has been growth in the costs of maintenance over the last 40 years. This can be linked directly to the changes in production technology over that period of time. However. there has also been growth in the field of management science and operations research. Many models have been developed to assist the maintenance function in its decisions. However. it would appear from engineering journals and shop floor practice that these models are not well used. For this research the method of inspection and repair maintenance has been chosen.

Abstract:

Farm machinery management data were collected in Burkina Faso, for the prediction of repair and maintenance costs. Equations were developed to predict repair and maintenance costs of tractors, cane loaders, generators and motorpumps. The analysis of data revealed that tractor repair and maintenance appears a greater burden than predicted by the American and Australian data. Tractor trade-in was not prescribed by the rule of minimum total cost per unit tractor use. Farm machinery and power units were operated more than twice as long as in the United States.

Abstract:

An appropriate maintenance policy is essential to reduce expenses and risks related to repairable systems failures. The usual assumptions of minimal or perfect repair at failures are not suitable for many real systems, requiring the application of Imperfect Repair models. In this work, the classes Arithmetic Reduction of Age and Arithmetic Reduction of Intensity, proposed by Doyen and Gaudoin (2004) are explored. Likelihood functions for such models are derived, and the parameters are estimated, allowing to compute reliability indicators to forecast the future behavior of the failure process.

Abstract:

The behavior of repairable equipment is often modeled under assumptions such as perfect repair, minimal repair, or negligible repair. However the majority of equipment behavior does not fall into any of these categories. Rather, repair actions do take time and the condition of equipment following repair is not strictly "as good as new" or "as bad as it was" prior to repair. Non-homogeneous processes that reflect this type of behavior are not studied nearly as much as the minimal repair case, but they far more realistic in many situations. For this reason, the quasi-renewal process provides
