Abstract: Due to the complexity of multi-component systems, components failure modes are intricate. The failure modes lead to maintenance behavior combinations, which lead to a series of maintenance strategies. However, the failure modes of components are mixed in multi-component systems. Few researchers provide component failure modes comprehensively in life cycle, and integrate them into life cycle maintenance strategies for the selection schemes of different phases. In this paper, a variable system cost methodology in life cycle is studied, and maintenance strategies are developed by identifying components failure modes from a life cycle perspective to improve system reliability. One of the keys is determining maintenance behaviors for components in each phase of life cycle. The proposed four failure modes cover all possible failure scenarios of the components in different phases. Then, a selection scheme is developed to determine maintenance behaviors in life cycle. At last, a case of Huaneng wind farm in China is given to demonstrate the proposed method by comparing with a baseline maintenance strategy.
