In this paper, a multivariate process monitoring scheme based on the rank‐energy statistics is proposed which is suitable for high‐dimensional applications such as sensorless drive diagnosis. The rank‐energy statistic is based on multivariate ranks that is grounded on the measure transportation theory. Univariate ranks could be interpreted as a solution to an optimisation problem involving a given set of observations of size and the set {}. Recently, attaining greater robustness than spatial sign or depth‐based ranks, multivariate ranks are proposed as solutions to such optimisation problem in multivariate settings (measure transportation problem). The proposed multivariate process monitoring scheme based on the rank‐energy statistic, subsequently, attains greater robustness than existing nonparametric multivariate process monitoring methods based on spatial sign or depth‐based ranks. The proposed method is also applicable to high‐dimensional data unlike some of the existing nonparametric multivariate process monitoring methods. A rigorous simulation study demonstrates its effective shift detection ability and other important features. A practical application of the proposed method is demonstrated with the sensorless drive diagnosis case study.

It is well known that process control index estimators are inflated when naively applied to positively autocorrelated data. The autocorrelation is a nuisance and not a feature that is captured in the process capability indices. This paper proposes exhaustive systematic sampling to create a pooled variance estimator that replaces the biased estimator of the process data standard deviation when data are autocorrelated. The proposed method is effective because the observations within a systematic sample are spread out in time and should be less correlated with each other as a result. It is similar to Bayesian thinning as a strategy for reducing the impact of autocorrelation except no observations are dropped. Properties of estimated process control indices are derived using quadratic forms and large sample theory that is nonparametric in the sense no distribution or time series model is assumed. Approximately unbiased estimates can be achieved for sufficiently large systematic sampling interval. The proposed method is compared to the time series method in a simulation study that demonstrates similar performance. The proposed method is applied to two examples that use because the target is not the midpoint of the specification limits and the mean differs from the target.

The prediction of remaining useful life (RUL) is a critical component of prognostic and health management for industrial systems. In recent decades, there has been a surge of interest in RUL prediction based on degradation data of a well‐defined degradation index (DI). However, in many real‐world applications, the DI may not be readily available and must be constructed from complex source data, rendering many existing methods inapplicable. Motivated by multivariate sensor data from industrial induction motors, this paper proposes a novel prognostic framework that develops a nonlinear DI, serving as an ensemble of representative features, and employs a similarity‐based method for RUL prediction. The proposed framework enables online prediction of RUL by dynamically updating information from the in‐service unit. Simulation studies and a case study on three‐phase industrial induction motors demonstrate that the proposed framework can effectively extract reliability information from various channels and predict RUL with high accuracy.

In this article, a modular model is proposed for the reliability modeling of phased mission systems (PMSs) with complicated system behaviors. By the modular method, the system is divided into several levels: system, subsystem, and components. At the component level, the shock effect, including self‐degradation, additional wear and damage caused by shocks, is considered and the component reliability is evaluated. Then, the reliability modeling method of the K/N system consisting of multiple K/N subsystems is proposed, by a mathematics reasoning method. The correctness of the proposed method is also verified by a Monte Carlo (MC) simulation procedure. At last, the modular method is applied at the system level, and the reliability of a practical engineering case, the attitude and orbit control system (AOCS), is evaluated for illustration. Meanwhile, the parameter sensitivity analysis is also carried out for implementation.

Inspections often perform imperfect outcomes during maintenance processes owing to human errors, management issues and other limitations. In particular, such imperfection affects the maintenance management of multistage deterioration significantly due to both false state identification and measurement errors, whose quantitative analysis, however, is seldom reported in the literature. To fill these gaps, this paper devises a condition‐based maintenance management strategy oriented to two‐stage continuous degradation under two‐dimensional inspection imperfection. Specifically, a threshold‐based replacement is executed under the normal‐working state if the detected degradation value exceeds the preset limit; additionally, preventive replacement is immediately performed once the defective state is identified. Notably, the detection outcome rather than the actual working condition decides how preventive maintenance operates. The long‐run cost rate is minimized via the optimization of the inspection cycle and replacement limit. Besides, numerical experiments conducted on train bogie bearing are provided, showing substantial superiorities over cost‐effectiveness promotion and performance improvement.

In this study, we define a series system with non‐independent and non‐identical components using a shock model with sources of fatal shocks. Here, it is assumed that the shocks happen randomly and independently, following a Weibull distribution with various scale and shape parameters. A dependability model with unknown parameters is produced by this process. Making statistical conclusions about the model parameters is the main objective of this research. We apply the maximum likelihood and Bayes approaches to determine the model parameters' point and interval estimates. We shall demonstrate that no analytical solutions to the likelihood equations must be solved to obtain the parameters' maximum likelihood estimates. As a result, we will use the R program to approximate the parameter point and interval estimates. Additionally, we will use the bootstrap‐t and bootstrap‐p methods to approximate the confidence intervals. About the Bayesian approach, we presume that each model parameter is independent and follows a gamma prior distribution with a range of attached hyperparameter values. The model parameters' posterior distribution does not take a practical form. We are unable to derive the Bayes estimates in closed forms as a result. To solve this issue, we use the Gibbs sampler from the Metropolis‐Hasting algorithm based on the Markov chain Monte Carlo method to condense the posterior distribution. To demonstrate the relevance of this research, a real data set application is detailed.

This paper presents a consecutive ‐out‐of‐: balance system in a shock environment, where the state transition of component is induced by external shocks. If a predetermined threshold number of effective shocks are applied to component in a critical state, the component will fail. The state of the system is defined by the number of consecutive failing component groups in the system, which leads to system failure when a critical number of consecutive failing components is reached. To minimize maintenance costs, we propose a preventive maintenance method with an optimization model. We use finite Markov chain imbedding and Phase‐type distribution to calculate component group failure rates and associated probability functions in discrete and continuous time, respectively. The validity and accuracy of the model are confirmed by numerical examples and Monte Carlo simulations.

The reliability modeling and optimization of performance sharing systems (PSSs) are of vital importance due to their wide applications. Existing research mainly focuses on evaluating and maximizing the reliability of PSSs. However, in many practical systems, decision‐makers tend to prioritize the average cost of the system over its reliability. This paper studies the resource allocation optimization in common bus PSSs. In such systems, each unit has binary‐state random performance to satisfy the multi‐state random demand. The surplus performance can be shared via a common bus with transmission loss between the common bus and the unit. The performance allocation, performance transmission, and unsupplied demand incur costs. Resource allocation strategies are determined by optimization models considering different objective functions and constraints. Additionally, transmission loss between the common bus and the unit is considered. A genetic algorithm is employed to efficiently find the optimal allocation strategies. Numerical examples prove the effectiveness of the proposed models in improving system reliability and reducing system costs.

Imperfect repairs (IRs) are widely applicable in reliability engineering since most equipment is not completely replaced after failure. In this sense, it is necessary to develop methodologies that can describe failure processes and predict the reliability of systems under this type of repair. One of the challenges in this context is to establish reliability models for multiple repairable systems considering unobserved heterogeneity associated with systems failure times and their failure intensity after performing IRs. Thus, in this work, frailty models are proposed to identify unobserved heterogeneity in these failure processes. In this context, we consider the arithmetic reduction of age (ARA) and arithmetic reduction of intensity (ARI) classes of IR models, with constant repair efficiency and a power‐law process distribution to model failure times and a univariate Gamma distributed frailty by all systems failure times. Classical inferential methods are used to estimate the parameters and reliability predictors of systems under IRs. An extensive simulation study is carried out under different scenarios to investigate the suitability of the models and the asymptotic consistency and efficiency properties of the maximum likelihood estimators. Finally, we illustrate the practical relevance of the proposed models on two real data sets.
不完全修复(IRs)广泛应用于可靠性工程,因为大多数设备在发生故障后不会被完全替换。从这个意义上说,有必要开发能够描述故障过程并预测系统在此类维修下的可靠性的方法。这方面的挑战之一是为多个可修复系统建立可靠性模型,同时考虑到与系统故障时间相关的未观察到的异质性以及执行 IR 后的故障强度。因此,在这项工作中,我们提出了虚弱模型来识别这些故障过程中未观察到的异质性。在此背景下,我们考虑了年龄算术缩减(ARA)和强度算术缩减(ARI)类 IR 模型,用恒定维修效率和幂律过程分布来模拟故障时间,并用单变量伽马分布虚弱来模拟所有系统的故障时间。经典推理方法用于估算 IR 条件下系统的参数和可靠性预测因子。我们在不同场景下进行了广泛的模拟研究,以考察模型的适用性以及最大似然估计值的渐近一致性和效率特性。最后,我们在两个真实数据集上说明了所提模型的实用性。
