Forecasting possible failure characteristics is very important in maintenance planning because it helps in predicting any future failures and determining the optimum replacement interval. This paper examines the time.to-failure distribution of the transfer gearbox of a J79 engine by using a probability plotting technique which is one of the most convenient techniques for reliability analysis. Various probability distributions are evaluated for determining the suitable probability distribution of the failure data of the transfer gearbox, and the resulting correlation coefficient indicates that failure data have a lognormal distribution. The expected number of unscheduled maintenance actions and the optimum replacement interval for various values of cost ratios are determined.

This survey was conducted to investigate the status of repair and maintenance of 4 wheel tractor for a basic reference to the improvement of quality and proper utilization of tractors. Thirty two counties from eight provinces, except Jeju, were covered in this study in order to investigate annual break-down and repair of tractor in 1980. The analyzed results are summarized as follows; 1. The average number of break-down of large size tractors(47ps) was 5.0 times in a year and it was about twice of that of small size tractors(19-23ps). The break-down frequency per 100 hours of use was 1.11 times in the large size and 0.65 times in the small size tractors. 2. 75.6 percent of total break-down was occured in main body of tractor and 24.4 percent in attachments. In particular, the break-down of plow and rotavator was more than 80 percent of total break-down of the small size tractor attachments. 3. The large size tractors which were occured more than one times of break-down a year was 75 percent and its rate of the small size tractor was 62 percent. But 9 percent of tractor surveyed had more than ten times of break-down in a year 4. The frequency of break-down had a peak in May, and it was directly proportional to the hours of use. 5. The causes of break-down were poor maintenance and operation by 29.8 precent, old parts by 30.2 percent, poor quality of parts by 20.6 percent, poor field condition by 16.3 percent and others by 3.1 percent. 6. Annual number of repair was 5.5 times and among them 55.6 percent was done by shop and 44.4 percent by operator. 7. Total required repair time was 30.6 hours a year in the large size tractor and 19.9 hours in the small size tractor. Average repair time was 3.62 hours a time. 8. Annual repair cost was 278 thousand won in the large size tractor and 70 thousand won in the small size tractor. The repair cost per hour of use was 621 won in the large size and 198 won in the small size tractor. 9. The repair cost rate of tractor(Y) was regulated with tractor age (X) as follow; Y=0.752X In case of the service life of tractor was 10 years, the total repair cost rate was 64 percent.

Three inspection-ordering policies of a part with three types of lead times, i. e., expedited lead time, special lead time and regular lead time are considered. Policy I : The original part is replaced by a spare immediately after delivery, even if the original part is still operating. Policy II : The delivered spare is put into inventory until the original part failes. Policy III : The original part is inspected once again immediately after the delivery of the spare. If it is in a good state, the original part is used up to its mean degradation time, then replaced. If it is in a degradation state, the original part is replaced by a spare. A cost effectiveness for each policy is analyzed. Optimal inspection-ordering policy which maximizes a cost effectiveness is obtained. Time to degradation distribution and time to failure distribution are assumed to be Weibull and exponential, respectively. Variations of policies are observed with respect to variations of associated costs.

생산시스템에 있어서 스케쥴링 문제에 관한 이론적 연구는 종래부터 많이 연구되어 왔지만, 그 대부분은 작업의 가공시간이 확정적(deterministic)인 경우의 평가척도(criterion)를 고려한 것이었다. 그러나 실제 노동집약형 산업이라든가 고장율이 높은 자동화 공장등에 있어서는 가공시간 또는 제조 리드타임이 확률적인 변동을 갖는 경우가 많다. 이러한 가공시간의 변동은 각 작업의 가공완료시각의 변동으로 되어 후공정의 작업계획에 중대한 영향을 미치게 된다. 따라서 가공시간이 확률적(probabilistic)인 경우의 생산 시스템을 대상으로 한 스케쥴링 문제에 관한 연구는 최근에 와서 연구되고 있는 실정이다. 본 연구에서는 종래의 단일 공정의 생산 시스템을 대상으로 n개의 작업이 확정적인 가공시간을 갖는 경우의 총체류시간(total flow time)과 납기(due date)의 평가척도에 관한 스케쥴링 문제를 가공시간이 확률적인 분포를 갖는 경우로 확장시킨 스케쥴링 문제를 제안한다. 그리고 납기에 있어서 평균 납기지연확률(mean probability of tardiness)을 최소화하는 스케쥴링 문제의 휴리스틱 해법을 제안하여 그 실용성을 검토하였다.

소프트웨어신뢰도의 일반적인 이론에서 소프트웨어의 고장율은 소프트웨어결함의 평균크기, 겉보기 결함밀도, 작업량의 곱인 것으로 제안한다. 고전적인 소프트웨어신뢰도모델들의 가정에 부합되는 이런 인자를 가진 모델들을 개발하였다. 선형, 기하학적, Rayleigh 모델들이 이에 해당된다. 선형신뢰도모델은 잔여결함의 평균크기와 작업량이 일정하고 겉보기 결함밀도가 실제 결함밀도와 동일하다는 가정 하에 유도된다. 기하학적모델은 결함을 수정함에 따라 평균결함크기가 기하학적으로 감소한다는 가정에 있어서 차이가 있다. 한편, Rayleigh 모델은 잔여 결함의 평균크기가 시간에 따라 선형적으로 감소한다는 가정에 있어서 차이가 있다. 본 논문에서는 소프트웨어의 신뢰도 요인의 거동을 가정하여 이러한 다양성을 수용하기 위한 모델링을 하였다.

Software efficiency is the probability of failure free use in operating environments, and is the most fundamental factor affecting software system stability. The malfunction of the computer system used in the information technology field may cause a significant loss in the related industry. Therefore, in this study, we analyze the attributes of software reliability models that depend on various hazard functions based on finite fault NHPP model with software failure time data. The hazard function pattern of proposed model is constant for the Goel-Okumoto model, and the Minimax and Rayleigh models follow the incremental pattern, but the hazard function increase value of the Minimax model is smaller than that of the Rayleigh model and the Goel-Okumoto model. Also, the Minimax model was relatively efficient because the true value error of the mean value function m(t) and the mean square error (MSE) of the Minimax model were smaller than those of the Rayleigh and Goel-Okumoto models. The results of this study are expected to be useful for software developers as basic information about the hazard function.
