Availability Optimization of a Cylinder Block in Cast Iron Manufacturing Plant using Markov Birth-Death Process

Abstract

In the current work, a cylinder block in cast iron plant has been beneath neath attention for its accessibility and optimization. The goal of the present paper is to optimize contribution variables of the cylinder block in cast iron plant, to maximize framework availability. Cast iron plant includes mainly, five subsystems linked in series configuration. For analysis, Repair & failure rates, and Transition rates of every subsystem is occupied from upkeep record sheets. Steady state availability is achieved by expending standardising condition. The optimization of framework availability is performed by Markov Process.
