Dynamic effect of perfect preventive maintenance on system reliability and cost using HiP-HOPS (2010)
Journal Article
Nggada, S. H., Parker, D. J., & Papadopoulos, Y. I. (2010). Dynamic effect of perfect preventive maintenance on system reliability and cost using HiP-HOPS. IFAC Proceedings Volumes/ International Federation of Automatic Control, 43(17), 204-209. https://doi.org/10.3182/20100908-3-pt-3007.00039

The occurrence of failure in a safety critical engineering system can be reduced through the use of preventive maintenance (PM). Each time a component of the system is maintained its effective age is reduced; the extent of this age reduction depends...

Engineering failure analysis and design optimisation with HiP-HOPS (2010)
Journal Article
Papadopoulos, Y., Walker, M., Parker, D., Rüde, E., Hamann, R., Uhlig, A., …Lien, R. (2011). Engineering failure analysis and design optimisation with HiP-HOPS. Engineering Failure Analysis, 18(2), 590-608. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.engfailanal.2010.09.025

The scale and complexity of computer-based safety critical systems, like those used in the transport and manufacturing industries, pose significant challenges for failure analysis. Over the last decade, research has focused on automating this task. I... Read More about Engineering failure analysis and design optimisation with HiP-HOPS.

Extending HiP-HOPS with Capabilities of Planning Preventative Maintenance (2010)
Book Chapter
Parker, D., & Papadopoulos, Y. (2010). Extending HiP-HOPS with Capabilities of Planning Preventative Maintenance. In M. Sarrafzadeh, & P. Petratos (Eds.), Strategic Advantage of Computing Information Systems in Enterprise Management (231 - 245). ATINER

An effective preventive maintenance (PM) policy for components of an engineering system slows down the rate at which component fatigue accumulates, thereby minimising the occurrence of component failure. The benefit of PM at system level is improveme... Read More about Extending HiP-HOPS with Capabilities of Planning Preventative Maintenance.
