Abstract: | A generalized model for determining optimal number of minimal repairs before replacement is introduced which incorporates minimal repair, replacement , and general random repair cost. The expected cost rate is obtained. It is shown that the optimal number n* which minimizes the cost rate is given by a unique solution of the equation under certain conditions. Various special cases are considered. |
