ITER Operational Availability and Fluence Objectives
Fusion Engineering and Design, 2011Abstract The ITER availability objective is to reach for the machine operation in H phase an inherent availability of 60% and an operational availability of 32% assuming three 8 h plasma shifts operating mode and typically 8-month major shutdown after each 16-month experimental campaign.

Operational Availability Modeling and Simulation Evaluation
2012 Proceedings Annual Reliability and Maintainability Symposium, 2012In this paper, we first investigate the concept and measuring models of system operational availability, and their limitations. To overcome the limitations of the existing models, we present an instantaneous operational availability model and an average operational availability model, as well as a simulation-based method for evaluating those two models.

Being a mother and available for operations
Inflexions, 2011La féminisation des armées fait son chemin. Cela implique de prendre en compte l’incidence de la maternité dans la vie opérationnelle, notamment en termes de disponibilité. « Être mère » ne vient pas stigmatiser une position d’exception, mais un moment particulier, celui des premières années du développement de la relation avec le jeune enfant.

Operational Availability and Reliability Model
IEEE Transactions on Reliability, 1974The operational Availability and Reliability (OAR) model is designed to evaluate the availability and reliability of systems with components in any combination of series, parallel, and r-out-of-n:G combinations. In terms of the OAR model, systems are composed of Optimal Replaceable Units (ORUs).

Available energy analysis of a petroleum-refinery operation
Applied Energy, 1986Abstract An available energy analysis for a petroleum refinery (a significant energy consumer) involving separation processes, as well as heating and cooling processes, was carried out in order to pinpoint energy losses. Based on an availability efficiency expression, the overall availability efficiency of the refinery was predicted to be 5·9%.

Assessment of the Availability of Intraoperative Autotransfusion in Urological Operations
The Journal of Urology, 1997Intraoperative autotransfusion in urological operations has the risks of reinfusing urine constituents, bacteria and cancer cells. We assessed the efficacy of intraoperative autotransfusion and leukocyte removal filters to separate red blood cells from these constituents.Concentrated red blood cells were mixed with urine, bacteria (Escherichia coli ...

Operator Availability Management Methods
1984Management of operator availability represents a collection of procedures and information used to maintain cost-effective staffing levels. It addresses only the mechanics of matching operator supply with demand, aiming to minimize that component of operating costs.

Availability of operator manuals for used consumer products
Applied Ergonomics, 1998This research investigates the availability of operator manuals for used (second-hand or resold) consumer products. One hundred people were solicited at a shopping mall and asked various questions about 20 common consumer products (e.g. car, computer, power lawn mower, bicycle, etc.).

Operating system upgrade in high availability environment
2013 21st International Conference on Software, Telecommunications and Computer Networks - (SoftCOM 2013), 2013The high availability requirement for services does not allow for more than five minutes of down time per year including downtime scheduled for maintenance and upgrades. The upgrade of applications providing such services is challenging and has to be planned very carefully.

Availability, Operability, and Testability
2015Effective sustainment of systems and components during the operation and maintenance stages of the system life cycle require specific purposeful actions during the design stages of the system life cycle. The availability and testability of the system and its constituent components are essential to ensure that the systems continues to provide the ...
