B. WILLIAMS and R. S. HIRANIt (Received 17 November 1995) Abstract-The model described in this paper is one of a series, which determines the optimal multi-level inspection-maintenance policy for a stochastically deteriorating multi-state sub-system, using the delay-time concept. The sub-system deterioration is assumed to be a non-decreasing semi-Markov process, where states are self-announced and inspection detects the sign of pending failure. Emphasis is placed on constant availability and reduction of production losses, deterioration rate and subsequent sub-system failure. In this respect, inspection is scheduled in such a way that the risk of failure is a constant for each inspection interval. Two pairs of mathematical models and softwares have been developed, and the policy decisions taken have been based on two criteria for optimisation. These decisions have then been validated by carrying out a simulation exercise using the ProModel simulation package. 1997 Elsevier Science Ltd. 1. INTRODUCTION Production systems can be viewed as multi-state stochastically deteriorating complex sys- tems. Their parts, from a maintenance point of view, can be grouped into five characteristi- cally different sub-systems. Thus, separate optimum multi-level pseudo-control limit main- tenance policies have been proposed 1-5. This paper deals with a gradually deteriorating sub-system, whose present state is self-announced and inspection detects the sign of pend- ing failure, the transition state, its status and the time of transition. A delay-time concept, first introduced by Christer 6, regards the failure mechanism as a two-stage process. A fault initiates in a sub-system and becomes prominent at time y. This can be identified if inspection is carded out at the time. If the fault is not attended to, the faulty sub-system subsequently changes its state after some further interval h, which Christer called the failure delay time. Research has been carded out 7-10, 6, 11-18 using this concept in maintenance mod- elling for two-state single- or multi-component 7, 8, 18 systems, where inspection inter- vals for perfect and/or imperfect inspections are taken as constant or variable 11, and repair restores the system, taking into account subjective and objective 7, 8, 18 data. It would seem practically unreasonable to consider repair as a renewal of a system to its original condition 19 and constant inspection intervals may not have a constant risk of failure, which results in inconsistent availability, and hence a variable production rate and high inventory, labour and production costs 5. Thus, the concept of delay time is here extended to multi-level maintenance of a multi-state sub-system, where inspections are scheduled in such a way that the risk of failure is constant for each inspection interval 20, 21. 2. MATHEMATICAL MODEL Let the deterioration process of a sub-system be a semi-Markov process with state space = 1, 2 . ,L, where states are described by the level of deterioration and the nature of the process limits the occurrence of transitions to higher states. The present state of the sub-system is self-announcing, whereas inspection detects the sign of pending failure. The tSchool of Manufacturing and Mechanical Engineering, University of Birmingham, Birmingham B 15 2Tl, U.K. 823 824 G.B. Williams and R. S. Hirani maintenance policy selected is a pseudo-control limit policy 6(), where maintenance action is determined by the control state/3. Let N= 1, 2 . /3- 1 be a set of states which asks for no repair action if they are functional, and minimal repair when they are non- functional. Its complementary set R=/3, /3+1 . L is the set of states which calls for repair or replacement of a sub-system to some better state in set pCN. Whenever inspection detects pending failure before the next inspection, on-condition preventive maintenance (OCPM) is performed instantaneously. This OCPM does not change the present and tran- sition states and their transition time, but reduces the probability of transition to a non- functional state. Mathematically, such a pseudo-control limit policy 6(k.) (where k. rep- resents either functional state kf or non-functional state knf) can be expressed as: I i = k for k./3eN and ieN 8(k.) = ik. for k,-/3eN and ie_CN (1) Let the sub-system be entered in state i eC_N, at reference or lead time TL(i), and inherit manufacturing faults with a probability of Pi(i), or faults may arise later on during use with a probability of 1-Pi(i), and subsequently cause its transition to any higher state j e , with a probability of P(ij), where the transition state j may be functional with a probability of P), and non-functional with a probability of 1-Pj).

Let n number of inspections be carried out at an inspection time T(i,1), T(i,2) . and T(i,n), independent of the nature of the faults and transition states, given that process has started in state i (Fig. 1), where these inspections are scheduled in such a way that the expected risk of transition A(o) between any two consecutive inspections is constant.

S. Hirani Thus, for an initial state i 5, the expected total constant base interval risk of transition A(m), in any ruth interval irrespective of destination state and the nature of the fault, is: A(m) = P(i s(i,m) + A,(ij,m,l . (7) j=i+l 1=1 Let the condition or state of the sub-system be taken as a function of multiple parameters. Some of these parameters can be measured directly, whereas others cannot. Thus a fault already present or initiated is reflected in the parameter, which is the measure of its exist- ence with the probability of 7/. Imperfect inspection may, therefore, detect only the reflected fault with a probability of . Once a fault is detected, inspection detects the status of the transition state with a probability q, and its transition time with an accuracy of _+ in fraction of the width of the forthcoming inspection interval. Thus the upper and lower error limits, T,(i,m) and Tl(i,m) for the estimation of a transition time T(i,m)T-T(i,m+l), at the time of the ruth inspection (Fig. 2 and Fig. 3), are: T,(i,m) = T+ T(i,m + 1)-T(i,m) (8) and Tl(i,m) = T- T(i,m + 1)- T(i,m) (9) for l-m m and/or m n- i, i e Ig and ij n 1 -(m-O.2(ij,m) + 1 -.z(ij,m).4(ij,m)q 1 -Pf(j) + (1 -q)Pf(); for 1 = m = n-l, iel and ije 1 - m- 1).2(ij,m) + 1 -.l(id,rn) s4(id,m) + .5(i,m),(id,m) m 1-Pf() + (1-q)Pf(j);for 1 = mn-1, iEl and ije.

The inspection cost ci(i) per inspection is paid in agi(i) instalments, where the instalment is equal to pi(v,i), a fraction of q(i). This is paid at time Y(v,i) from the time of the inspection. Thus the net present value (NPV) of the expected single step costs of the inspection plus penalty paid during the time of the inspection Ti, Ci(i), is: Ci(i ) = t. -lIs(ij ) A(ij 1) i + P(iJ)m- 1 ,m + l ,m, j= 1 -1 l=1 = 1 E ci(i)pi(P,i)(VIV2) trL(i) + r(i,K)-I-(K-,;.1 + YI vi) k= l v= l + cl(i)Ti(ViV2)trL(i) + i,)+ (,-0.5)Ti (12) for i e and j e , where V V2 are the annual time value or discount factor and the annual net inflation factor, respectively 7. Let the OCPM cost co(i), be paid in Oo(i) instalments, where the instalment is equal to po(v,i) a fraction of co(i), which is paid at time Yo(v,i) from the time when pending failure is detected. Thus, the NPV of the expected single step costs of OCPM, plus penalty during the time required for OCPM To(i), regardless of transition state Co(i), is: Co(i) = L n-1 P(ij) Po(ij,m) + Po(ij,m,l) j=i+l m=l l=l i_ i c(i)O(Pi)(VI V2)TL(i) + T(im) + mTi + + cl(i)To(i)(Vs V2) trt.( + r(i.m) + mT i + 0.5To(i) (13) 828 G.B.

This is paid in at time Y,(vj) from the expected time of transition to a non-functional state, plus time taken by inspec- tion.

If the sub-system in state i makes a transition to any non-functional state j, or to any functional state jc, after OCPM, before the warranty period Tw(i), warranty recovery at the agreed rate is charged from the supplier/manufacturer 5. Let the NPV of such a single step expected warranty charge recovered be Cw(i); therefore, the net expected single step inspection cost, plus OCPM cost, plus on-failure minimal repair cost, minus warranty recovery Cs(i), is: Cs(i) = Ci(i) + Co(i) + Cm(i)-Cw(i). (16) Therefore, the total expected single-step time taken by inspection, OCPM, and minimal repair, plus the time utilised for production, irrespective of the transition state and nature of the fault, given that the initial state is state i, is: T(ij) = ,m) + o ,m, 1 I=l (P,.(ij ) P (ij l)Tm(i) + ,l + m ,m, l=1 + l(ij,m) + Al(ij,m,l mTi + Sgl(ij,m)Tl(ij,m) I=l m 0 + A,(ij,m,1)T,(ij,m, . 1=1 (17) The NPV of the cumulative expected cost of inspection, expected cost of OCPM, expected cost of on-failure minimal repair, minus warranty recovery until the sub-system is in set , is: /3-i /3-2 B- C(i) = C(i) + P(ij)C,(j)(VIV2)tL (J) + P(ij)P(j,k)C j=i+l jfil kffij+l (k)(VlV2)T,(id) + r(i,k) + E E E P(ij)P(j,k)P(k,l)C, j=i+lk=j+l l=k+l (I)(V1V2) tL(i) + rs(Jk) + Ts(kl) + . + P(ij)P(j,k).P(3-2,3-1)C(/3-1) (VV2)tr,) + . + r,(/3-2./3-,1 (18) for ioC_jl. n-l, iRandijE f t(1-7) + 7711- + */1-gl(-l(1-,)M,(i,j,m) + /1-1 (-1), K= K=I s,(id,m)sd4(id,m) 1-Pf(j)for mn - 1, il and i m and/or m n- 1, illV and ij (1-71) + 71 1-m-lA(ij,m,l) 1-PRO) for/= m-n-1, i and ij(1-l)+B1-, (m-l) + 1-(-I-l)(1-q)Al(id,m,l) t=l+ l + 1-(-t-1)e.Al(id,m,l)A4(id,m,l)1-Pf(J) K=I+I for lm-n- 1, i E and ij (24) Since OCPM reduces the probability of transition to any non-functional state without changing the time of transition and the transition state, thus the net effective probabilities of transition of the sub-system in state i as a result of OCPM to any non-functional and functional states knf and kerry, are: P(i,k.f) = P.(id)P(i,k)m_ ,k,m) t rn ,k,m, J =l -1 1=1 (25) and ,(i,kf) = .P,(id)P(i,k)m_ 1- ,k,m)+ Pm(j,k,m,l J =l -1 1=1 (26) for i oC_, j E N and k.f and kf So.

An industrial setup was modelled using the ProModel simulation package. To facilitate decision making, user-defined sub-routines were written in Turbo Pascal. The ProModel simulation was then run and identical results were obtained; this confirms the validity of the model and the supporting software. Capital recovery for a production system is taken to be equal to the drop in value considering inflation or deflation, which enables mature as well as premature replacement by the same or its alternative without additional investment.
