The transition towards Circular Economy is a crucial issue of European environmental policies. It requires a complete overhaul of production systems, in order to improve product lifecycles and to reduce the ecological footprint. In this context, maintenance is key to extend the products durability. This study addresses maintenance planning optimization within the Circular Economy framework.An original lot-sizing model for tactical maintenance planning on a single-machine with multiple components is presented. The main features of this model are the consideration of the component health index and the global budget on environmental impact. The computational limits of the model and the impact of the budget constraint are assessed through experimentations.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
