An Analysis of an Inventory Problem for a Repairable System Considering the Ordering Policy of (s, s+1) Type
Summary :
This paper considers an availability analysis and an optimal inventory problem for a repairable 1-out-ofN:G system assuming an ordering policy of (s, s+1) type. The system consists of N identical subsystems which constitute 1-out-ofN:G, and each subsystem is a m units series system. Since the system is repairable, the exact evaluation of the system availability is extremely difficult. In this paper, the system availability is obtained by an approximation analysis. The results are reasonably accurate and are much easier than the exact evaluation. Then the optimal inventory problem is discussed. The numerical example shows that the solution is obtained relatively easily when the system consists of highly reliable units.
