We study a single-unit deteriorating system under condition monitoring for which collected signals are only stochastically related to the actual level of degradation. Failure replacement is costlier than preventive replacement and there is a delay (lead time) between the initiation of the maintenance setup and the actual maintenance, which is closely related to the process of spare parts inventory and/or maintenance setup activities. We develop a dynamic control policy with a two-dimensional decision space, referred to as a warning-replacement policy, which jointly optimizes the replacement time and replacement setup initiation point (maintenance ordering time) using online condition monitoring data. The optimization criterion is the long-run expected average cost per unit of operation time. We develop the optimal structure of such a dynamic policy using a partially observable semi-Markov decision process and provide some important results with respect to optimality and monotone properties of the optimal policy. We also discuss how to find the optimal values of observation/inspection interval and lead time using historical condition monitoring data. Illustrative numerical examples are provided to show thatour joint policy outperforms conventional suboptimal policies commonly used in theliterature.

Formulation and solution of an optimal control problem for industrial project control
Schmidt, Klaus Verner (Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2019-09-15)
n this paper, we consider the monitoring and control of industrial projects that are performed by executing different activities within a given time duration. Hereby, it is desired to apply project control to each activity in order to avoid unexpected deviations in the project cost, respecting that the amount and cost of project control needs to be limited. We model the general setting of industrial project control as an optimal control problem with the goal of maximizing the cost reduction (savings) when a...
Mutual relevance of investor sentiment and finance by modeling coupled stochastic systems with MARS
Kalayci, Betul; Ozmen, Ayse; Weber, Gerhard Wilhelm (Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2020-08-01)
Stochastic differential equations (SDEs) rapidly become one of the most well-known formats in which to express such diverse mathematical models under uncertainty such as financial models, neural systems, behavioral and neural responses, human reactions and behaviors. They belong to the main methods to describe randomness of a dynamical model today. In a financial system, different kinds of SDEs have been elaborated to model various financial assets. On the other hand, economists have conducted research on s...
Anti-periodic solutions for state-dependent impulsive recurrent neural networks with time-varying and continuously distributed delays
Sayli, Mustafa; YILMAZ, ENES (Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2017-11-01)
In this paper, we address a new model of neural networks related to the impulsive phenomena which is called state-dependent impulsive recurrent neural networks with time-varying and continuously distributed delays. We investigate sufficient conditions on the existence and uniqueness of exponentially stable anti-periodic solution for these neural networks by employing method of coincide degree theory and an appropriate Lyapunov function. Moreover, we present an illustrative example to show the effectiveness ...
An approximation for kanban controlled assembly systems
TOPAN, Engin; Avşar, Zeynep Müge (Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2011-01-01)
An approximation is proposed to evaluate the steady-state performance of kanban controlled two-stage assembly systems. The development of the approximation is as follows. The considered continuous-time Markov chain is aggregated keeping the model exact, and this aggregate model is approximated replacing some state-dependent transition rates with constant rates. The approximate aggregate model is, then, decomposed into submodels and a product-form steady-state distribution is obtained for each submodel. Fina...
Analysis of pulse diversity in radar systems
Keçelioğlu, Umut; Koç, Seyit Sencer; Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering (2006)
In this thesis, the pulse diversity technique in radar systems in high clutter environments is investigated. In this technique, different pulse compression methods are used in each pulse in the transmitted burst to increase the unambiguous range. In pulse diversity, the design of filters used in the receiver is as important as designing the transmitted waveform. At the output of pulse-burst filter that processes pulse-by-pulse, as many channels as the pulses in the burst occur. Each of these channels is mat...
