When a production system comes to the end of its life, a decision needs to be made what to do with it. Usually it needs to be removed from the site very quickly to make room for a new one. This paper proposes a recovery planning method (RPM) that could be used to determine a suitable End-of-Life (EoL) scenario for a production system. Making the recovery process planning more systematic can improve...
This paper provides a connection between an industrial problem of the maximization of aircraft utilization and maintenance cost savings. A more flexible structure is proposed to perform the maintenance not only during scheduled periodic checks but also whenever the aircraft is on the ground for any reason.
