Preventive Maintenance Policy

PurposeThe purpose of this study is to develop a joint production, maintenance and quality control strategy involving a periodic preventive maintenance policy.Design/methodology/approachThe proposed integrated policy is defined and modeled mathematically.FindingsThe paper focuses on finding simultaneously the optimal values of the preventive maintenance period, the buffer stock size, the sample size, the sampling interval and the control chart limits, such that the expected total cost per time unit is minimized.Practical implicationsThe paper attempts to integrate in a single model the three main aspects of any manufacturing system: production, maintenance and quality. The considered system consists of one machine subject to a degradation process that directly affects the quality of products. The process and product quality control is carried out using an “x-bar” control chart. In the proposed model, a preventive maintenance action is performed every α inspections of product quality in order to reduce the shift rate to the “out-of-control” state. A corrective maintenance action is undertaken once the control limits are exceeded. In order to palliate perturbations caused by the stopping of the machine to undergo maintenance actions, a buffer stock is built up to ensure the continuous supply of the subsequent machine. The main goal of this work is to develop a model that captures the underlying link between the preventive maintenance policy, the buffer stock size and the parameters of an “x-bar” control chart used to control the quality of the product. Numerical experiments and a study of the effects of the input parameters variation on the obtained results are performed.Originality/valueThe existing models that simultaneously consider maintenance, inventory and control charts consist of a condition-based maintenance (CBM) policy. Periodic preventive maintenance (PM) has not been considered in such models. The proposed integrated model is original, in that it links production through buffer stocks, quality through a control chart and maintenance through periodic preventive maintenance (different practical settings and modeling approach than when CBM is used). Hence, this paper addresses practical situations where, for economic or technical reasons, only systematic periodic preventive maintenance is possible.

Tabu Search Algorithm

Classification and regression are the major applications of machine learning algorithms which are widely used to solve problems in numerous domains of engineering and computer science. Different classifiers based on the optimization of the decision tree have been proposed, however, it is still evolving over time. This paper presents a novel and robust classifier based on a decision tree and tabu search algorithms, respectively. In the aim of improving performance, our proposed algorithm constructs multiple decision trees while employing a tabu search algorithm to consistently monitor the leaf and decision nodes in the corresponding decision trees. Additionally, the used tabu search algorithm is responsible to balance the entropy of the corresponding decision trees. For training the model, we used the clinical data of COVID-19 patients to predict whether a patient is suffering. The experimental results were obtained using our proposed classifier based on the built-in sci-kit learn library in Python. The extensive analysis for the performance comparison was presented using Big O and statistical analysis for conventional supervised machine learning algorithms. Moreover, the performance comparison to optimized state-of-the-art classifiers is also presented. The achieved accuracy of 98%, the required execution time of 55.6 ms and the area under receiver operating characteristic (AUROC) for proposed method of 0.95 reveals that the proposed classifier algorithm is convenient for large datasets.

Abstract Automated Incident Detection (AID) is an important part of Advanced Traffic Management and Information Systems (ATMISs). An automated incident detection system can effectively provide information on an incident, which can help initiate the required measure to reduce the influence of the incident. To accurately detect incidents in expressways, a Support Vector Machine (SVM) is used in this paper. Since the selection of optimal parameters for the SVM can improve prediction accuracy, the tabu search algorithm is employed to optimize the SVM parameters. The proposed model is evaluated with data for two freeways in China. The results show that the tabu search algorithm can effectively provide better parameter values for the SVM, and SVM models outperform Artificial Neural Networks (ANNs) in freeway incident detection.
