โฆ Synopsis
this paper, we consider a different type of repair-cost limit replacement problem with imperfect repair from earlier models. We focus on the problem of determining the timing to stop repairing a unit after it fails, and propose a nonparametric method to estimate the optimal repair-cost limit which minimizes the total expected cost per unit time in the steady-state, by applying the total time on test (TTT) concept. Through a numerical example, the optimal policy is calculated from the repair-cost data directly, and the benefit of the proposed method is shown.

## A BSTRA CT A replacement policy with minimal repair cost limit is discussed. When a system fails, the repair cost is estimated by inspection and minimal repair is then undertaken if the estimated cost is less than a predetermined limit L; otherwise, the system is replaced. It is assumed that re

In this paper, we consider a replacement model with minimal repair based on a cumulative repair-cost limit policy, where the information of all repair costs is used to decide whether the system is repaired or replaced. As a failure occurs, the system experiences one of the two types of failures: a t
