ABSTRACT
In a random environment, the external shocks may conduct different impacts on the component. Besides, the failure process of the component can also affect the occurrence and impact of the external shock. Under the combined effect of external shocks and natural degradation, the failure process of the component follows a complex competing-risk mode. This paper proposes a mode of two-stage failure process based on delay-time mode (DTM) with multiple modes of external shocks and provides the models of the reliability, expected availability and cost rate in limited duration. An iterative algorithm combining with discretization method is proposed for approximate calculation. On this basis, a policy optimization method of preventive maintenance (PM) is proposed. Two decision variables, first inspection time and inspection interval, are determined by maximizing availability or minimizing cost rate. Finally, a numerical example of the airplane landing gear demonstrates the practicality and feasibility of our method.
