Abstract
In previous papers [1], [2] the authors developed a maintenance policy for a single life-limited part. Using an opportunistic replacement approach a scheme was devised which utilized early replacement of equipment to offset more costly future expenditures. This paper will extend the results to the multicomponent case. Examples are given illustrating the benefits of this new technique.
