o:33278 TIME BETWEEN AIRCRAFT OVERHAULS OPTIMIZATION BY MAXIMIZING FLEET TOTAL FLYING HOURS en Abstract: The purpose of the work was to investigate the feasibility of determining when an aircraft should be overhauled in order to maximize the total flying hours of a fleet. It was assumed that the aircraft reliability parameters are known. Also, it was assumed that maintenance capacity is limited and constant. Analysis was based on a discreteevent simulation model using General Purpose Simulation System (GPSS), which estimates available and achieved flight hours of a military aircraft G-4 fleet throughout complete life cycle, under a certain maintenance scenario. The model also gives all necessary parameters to compute the total aircraft maintenance cost, linking reliability, operational tempo and maintenance scenario. Keywords: aircraft, overhaul, simulation, optimization. 1552100 978-86-7395-321-2 2024-03-26T09:38:03.335Z 44 no 46 Ivan Djokic Državni univerzitet u Novom Pazaru Ljubomir Lazic Državni univerzitet u Novom Pazaru person 0000-0001-9839-1238 Aleksandra Pavlovic Državni univerzitet u Novom Pazaru person Aldina Pljaskovic Državni univerzitet u Novom Pazaru person 0000-0003-4312-3839 application/pdf 505112 https://phaidrabg.bg.ac.rs/o:33278 no yes 1 70 92000001 20A01 1st Logistics International Conference Belgrade, Serbia 28 - 30 November 2013 55 59 2013
