Modeling and decision-making of system lifecycle costs under Weibull distribution

System design optimization based on reliability is closely linked with economy. Under the conditions that the life of components follows Weibull distribution and group strategy is applied to preventive maintenance, design cost function, manufacturing cost function and maintenance cost function are presented respectively for a multi-unit system which is composed of identical units. And then, a lifecycle costs optimization model under reliability constraints is given. Reliability design value and group preventive maintenance policy in operation phase are comprehensively analyzed by the model. A decision method of equilibrium area for system design is put forward, which includes balanced lifecycle costs, required design reliability and group preventive maintenance period. Finally, an example analysis of switching systems of a large-scale scientific facility is shown to demonstrate its effectiveness and applicability. In the case, curves between optimal lifecycle costs and required reliability design value are obtained. The curve of optimal lifecycle costs with group preventive maintenance strategy is compared with no group preventive strategy, and the intrinsic relationship of reliability-based design, maintenance strategy and the optimal lifecycle costs are revealed by a utility curve altogether. The proposed decision method is helpful to get a new equilibrium area when key parameters are changed by technological advance. Therefore, it is of great significance for system engineers to carry out reliability-based design optimization by these provided solutions and methods.
