Advanced Computational Methods for Optimization of Non-Periodic Inspection Intervals for Aging Infrastructure

Abstract

This report for the project titled 'Advanced Computational Methods for Optimization of Non-Periodic Inspection Intervals for Aging Infrastructure' proposes an approach for optimization of non-periodic inspection scheme on a finite time horizon for a multi-component safety critical system. The system consists of several components, each of which is subjected to soft failure due to the failure tolerance design. The non-periodic inspection scheme give a guaranteed level of reliability throughout the life of the system and at the same time reduces the inspection cost.
