Abstract:
Abstract In the case of a high-valuable asset, the Operation and Maintenance (O&M) phase requires heavy charges and more efforts than the installation (construction) phase, because it has long usage life and any accident of an asset during this period causes catastrophic damage to an industry. Recently, with the advent of emerging Information Communication Technologies (ICTs), we can get the visibility of asset status information during its usage period. It gives us new challenging issues for improving the efficiency of asset operations. One issue is to implement the Condition-Based Mainte

Abstract:
The optimal predictive, preventive, corrective and opportunistic maintenance policies play an important role in the success of sustainable maintenance operations. This study discusses a new energy efficiency-related maintenance policy optimization method, which is based on failure data and status information from both the physical system and the digital twin-based discrete event simulation. The study presents the functional model, the mathematical model and the solution algorithm. The maintenance optimization method proposed in this paper is made up of four main phases: computation of energy c

Abstract:
Driven by digital technologies, it is possible that high-tech equipment management personnel use monitored job cycles to ensure products’ operation and maintenance over their life cycle. By means of monitored job cycles, this paper designs two categories of random maintenance policies: a two-stage two-dimensional free repair warranty (2DFRW) policy and a random hybrid periodic replacement (RHPR) policy. The 2DFRW policy is performed to ensure the product’s operation and maintenance over the warranty stage. Under such a policy, a product is minimally repaired at each failure, and regions of the

Abstract:
We consider a system with heterogeneous unreliable components that requires only one component to be turned on in order for it to operate. Repair workers may have different skills and may be unavailable for random periods of time. The problem is to determine a usage and repair policy to maximize system availability. We give conditions under which the optimal usage policy is to always use, or turn on, the component with the shortest repair time, and the optimal repair policy is to always repair the most reliable component (with the smallest failure rate).

Abstract:
The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) owns or operates 236 locks at 191 sites (HQUSACE 2016). Although the locks at these sites generally perform reliably, more than half of these structures have surpassed their 50-year economic design life and as such, there are increasing concerns about their continued safe, reliable operation. This work was undertaken to review lock operating equipment, maintenance practices, records pertaining to accidents and equipment failures, and lighting systems; to identify alternative improvements to equipment and equipment maintenance practices; and to analyze a

In the year 2000, United Nations Security Council Resolution 1325 on Women, Peace and Security stressed the importance of the full and equal participation of women in all efforts towards the maintenance and promotion of peace and security, including UN peace operations. Following the resolution, organizations and member states involved in multilateral peace operations affirmed their commitment to increase women’s participation in these activities. More than 20 years after the adoption of the resolution, some progress has been achieved in enhancing women’s representation in multilateral peace o

Abstract:
The country's irrigation systems have had a long history of recovering maintenance cost from farmers. The Free Irrigation Service Act (FISA) of 2018 was a radical departure from this policy. Based on examining secondary data, and primary information from key informant interviews and focus group discussions, this study conducts a preliminary assessment of the policy change. The assessment finds that the main benefit to farmers from free irrigation is the savings from paying the irrigation service fee in the case of national irrigation systems (NIS); and the subsidy for operations and maintenanc

Abstract:
California faces unprecedented uncertainty about how much revenue the state will raise from a package of taxes on motor fuels and annual registration fees on light-duty vehicles that was established in 2017 by Senate Bill 1 (SB 1). The SB 1 taxes are by far the largest source of revenue that the State of California generates to support maintenance, operations, and improvements for state highways, and the funds also contribute substantially to local transportation and public transit budgets. To help policymakers navigate the uncertainty about future SB 1 transportation revenue, this study used

Abstract:
Army policy calls for each installation to install a building automation system (aka utility monitoring and control system [UMCS]) to provide for centralized monitoring of buildings and utilities to reduce energy and water commodity and maintenance costs. Typically, the UMCS, including building control systems (BCS), is installed and expanded in piecemeal fashion resulting in intersystem incompatibilities. The integration of multivendor BCSs into a single basewide UMCS, and subsequent UMCS operation, can present technical and administrative challenges due to its complexity and cybersecurity re
