Optimal non-periodic inspection scheme for a multi-component repairable system using A∗ search algorithm

► Optimal non-periodic inspection interval for a multi-component system is sought. ► Failures of the components are soft and increase system operating costs. ► The components are inspected at inspection times and are repaired if found failed. ► The obtained inspection scheme minimizes the system’s e...
