An age-replacement policy may be used to minimize the cost of replacement and repair of a system whose rate of repairable failures increases with age. In this paper we model the failure times before replacement of one such system-a pump used on a submarine-by a non-homogeneous Poisson process having
In each of the two case studies described in this paper a vessel containing a pressurised fluid failed by the phenomenon of external-pressure buckling. In the first case study a jacketed reactor vessel developed an inward-facing bulge because the heat-transfer oil in the jacket had expanded during a
