The research is aimed at developing a mathematical model for determining the risks in railway transport during the diagnostics of axle boxes of freight cars, which will provide an assessment of traffic safety in the case of freight transportations. Methodology. To develop a mathematical model for determining the risks in railway transport, a continuous static model of the dependence of the level of individual approach of service personnel on the level of common interests (crew, shift) was used. Three types of dependencies were considered: optimistic, neutral, pessimistic. Findings. A

Abstract:
Mathematical optimization is very important for project decision in the Transportation Infrastructure Management System (TIMS). However, it has not been widely employed in TIMS due to poor performance of conventional optimization models in calculation speed and practical application. Therefore, it is necessary to improve the performance of optimization models. According to the process of decision-making in transportation management, a novel two-stage project optimization model, including budget allocation and project distribution, was proposed in this paper.

Maintenance and its associated costs have become a serious problem for nearly all military and civilian organizations using aircraft and other complex hardware. This paper describes extensions of development work designed to provide basic elemental task configuration versus strength data for tightening and loosening circular electrical connectors by proposing a mathematical formulation of the problem, showing a model relating hand torque strength to specific task variables and dimensions, and giving the results of predictive tests in which predicted hand torque strength was compared against va

This paper presents a mathematical programming model for optimal pavement rehabilitation planning. The model maximized the rehabilitation area through a newly developed permutation algorithm, based on the procedures outlined in the harmony search (HS) algorithm. Additionally, the proposed algorithm was based on an optimal solution method for the problem of multilocation rehabilitation activities on pavement structure, using empirical deterioration and rehabilitation effectiveness models, according to a limited maintenance budget. Thus, nonlinear pavement performance and rehabilitation activity

SUMMARYSnake robots have the potential to make substantial contributions in areas such as rescue missions, firefighting, and maintenance where it may either be too narrow or too dangerous for personnel to operate. During the last 10–15 years, the published literature on snake robots has increased significantly. The purpose of this paper is to give a survey of the various mathematical models and motion patterns presented for snake robots. Both purely kinematic models and models including dynamics are investigated. Moreover, the different approaches to biologically inspired locomotion and artifi

Abstract:
Background Rabies is a fatal yet vaccine-preventable disease. In the last two decades, domestic dog populations have been shown to constitute the predominant reservoir of rabies in developing countries, causing 99% of human rabies cases. Despite substantial control efforts, dog rabies is still widely endemic and is spreading across previously rabies-free areas. Developing a detailed understanding of dog rabies dynamics and the impact of vaccination is essential to optimize existing control strategies and developing new ones.

The paper considers the theoretical explanation and construction of some mathematical models of the aircraft operational process in reference to maintenance organizations preferred by aviation experts and aircraft operators. The uncertainty of such operational multi-alternativeness is evaluated on the basis of subjective entropy of preferences demonstrated by aircraft operators and aviation experts. When applying the maximum principle of subjective entropy, the optimal distributions of the preferences are obtained. The proposed concept allows finding the optimal distribution of the aircraft fl

This feature requires a more subtle approach to the organization and planning maintenance in the course of their operation. The problem is that in the development of such facilities, all issues related to maintainability and maintenance should be addressed already at the early stages of facility design. If y

In this study, we integrate deteriorate jobs with repair&maintenance activity on a single machine scheduling subject to total completion time. This work has more than one motivation. First, jobs are assigned to machines in an automated production line. Later, to schedule the maintenance activities, if needed, to prevent machinery from breaking down later. There are some important mathematical models to solve this combination. However, due to the complexity of the problem which is Np-hard, a polynomial algorithm should be needed for solving large problems. Therefore, this article introduces

A large number of products are now being sold with long-term warranty policies. This is mainly due to fierce competition in the market and customer demand. Offering long-term warranty results in additional complexities in estimating costs associated with warranty servicing due to the uncertainties associated with usage, preventive maintenance and warranty servicing strategies. This paper reviews various long-term warranty policies and mathematical models for estimation of warranty servicing costs.

The dependability assessment is a crucial activity for determining the availability, safety and maintainability of a system and establishing the best mitigation measures to prevent serious flaws and process interruptions. One of the most promising methodologies for the analysis of complex systems is Dynamic Reliability (also known as DPRA) with models that define explicitly the interactions between components and variables. Among the mathematical techniques of DPRA, Stochastic Hybrid Automaton (SHA) has been used to model systems characterized by continuous and discrete variables. Recently, a
