Minimax surveillance schedules for replaceable units

Robert Roeloffs

Naval Research Logistics Quarterly, 1967, vol. 14, issue 4, 461-471

Abstract: An analysis is made of the problem of finding optimal schedules for checking an operating unit subject to random failure detectable only by inspection of the unit. It is assumed that only partial information, in the form of .a single percentile of the otherwise unknown life distribution of the unit, is available. In a previous paper [5] some results were given for the case with a finite time horizon. Tn this work it is assumed that tne unit is replaceable at will with a new, statistically identical unit, and the horizon is infinite.
