Reliability and Maintenance of Multi-indenture Systems analyzes and discusses the optimization problems of the multi-indenture system, providing theoretical and practical insights for reliability and maintenance engineers and managers. The book combines computer simulation, operational research, reliability engineering and numerical optimization to solve practical reliability problems. After a thorough introduction to multi-indenture systems and the reliability problems associated with them, the general framework of the simulation system is proposed and explained, along with more detailed explanations of the applications.Complex hierarchical system structures have become more common in applications such as rail, aircraft and weaponry due to increasing requirements for flexibility and functionality. As a consequence, it has become increasingly difficult to use analytical methods to calculate and improve system reliability and availability of these large complex systems. However, recent research has provided proven methodologies for the application of simulation systems to tackle problems including redundancy optimization in the design phase, optimal maintenance, and spare parts provisioning in the operation phase, hence this book is an ideal contribution to the conversation.

The 2004 Asian International Workshop on Advanced Reliability Modeling is a symposium for the dissemination of state-of-the-art research and the presentation of practice in reliability engineering and related issues in Asia. It brings together researchers, scientists and practitioners from Asian countries to discuss the state of research and practice in dealing with reliability issues at the system design (modeling) level, and to jointly formulate an agenda for future research in this engineering area. The proceedings cover all the key topics in reliability, maintainability and safety engineering, providing an in-depth presentation of theory and practice.The proceedings have been selected for coverage in:• Index to Scientific & Technical Proceedings® (ISTP® / ISI Proceedings)• Index to Scientific & Technical Proceedings (ISTP CDROM version / ISI Proceedings)• CC Proceedings — Engineering & Physical Sciences
