To provide direction and advice for future research on Industry 4.0 maintenance, we
conducted a comprehensive analysis of 344 eligible journal papers published between …

The business world is continually changing. Dynamic environments, full of uncertainties,
complexities, and ambiguities, demand faster and more confident decisions. To compete in …

The great complexity of advanced manufacturing processes combined with the high
investment costs for manufacturing equipment makes the integration of maintenance …

Efficiently optimizing maintenance strategies is vital for the cost reduction of complex
equipment. Most of the current research in this domain primarily focuses on single-objective …

This article concerns a fuzzy sampled-data controller for nonlinear semi-Markovian jump
systems (SMJS) via the fuzzy dependent stochastic looped-Lyapunov functional (FSLF) …

This paper considers a continuous flow manufacturing system with two machines subjected
to condition-based preventive maintenance, and separated by an intermediate buffer of finite …

Discovering the optimal maintenance planning strategy can have a substantial impact on
production efficiency, yet this aspect is often overlooked in favor of production planning. This …

In a multi-state manufacturing system, preventive maintenance is performed on other
machines once the performance of a machine falls below a threshold state. Many …

This work attempted to propose an integrated approach for the joint control of production,
quality and maintenance where a single machine would produce one type of product. The …

Two-beam laser welding (TBLW) is an advanced process for precise, low distortion joining
of cylindrical miniature parts. The process is composed of a laser source, optics and various …
