Abstract

This paper presents a decomposition method for analyzing assembly/disassembly manufacturing systems with continuous material, exponential repair and failure time distributions, and processing times that differ from machine to machine. Decomposition equations are derived, an algorithm is developed, special cases are explored, and numerical results are discussed. Copyright Kluwer Academic Publishers 2000
