Imperfect inspection of a system with unrevealed failure and an unrevealed defective state [PDF]
This paper proposes a model of inspection of a protection system in which the inspection outcome provides imperfect information of the state of the system. The system itself is required to operate on demand typically in emergency situations.

Optimizing the integrated economic production quantity for a stochastically deteriorating production system under condition-based maintenance [PDF]
This paper proposes a new integrated economic production quantity (EPQ) and condition-based maintenance (CBM) model for a stochastically deteriorating production system. Inspections are performed periodically to measure the real time degradation.

Reliability and Availability Analysis of a Two-Unit Cold Standby System with Imperfect Switching
This paper presents a stochastic analysis of a two-unit cold standby system incorporating imperfect switching mechanisms. Each unit operates in one of three states: normal, partial failure, or total failure.

In this paper, a periodic maintenance model is formulated assumingcontinuous monitoring, imperfect preventive maintenance (PM) and perfect correctivemaintenance (CM) using three decision variables, (I, N, Z). The model is derived in aninfinite horizon context where the mean cost per unit time is modelled.
