Summary
The optimization of maintenance strategies has become a key issue in the railway
industry but also in most industrial fields. To address this challenge, many studies
dealt with the estimation of optimal maintenance parameters. But what commonly
happens when the degradation process suddenly changes? The operator has to face
an unexpected, increasing number of severe defects (and then a strong drop of its
availability). These changes are generally due to either: a new component,
introduced in the system for obsolescence reasons; or changing operating conditions.
Based on the dynamic Bayesian networks (DBN), formalism that has been proved
relevant to perform reliability analysis can easily represent complex system
behaviors. This paper introduces a dynamic maintenance strategy, able to detect
these drifts and to evaluate their impacts on the rolling stock doors system's
behavior.
