In these policies, tests or repairs or both can be minimal or perfect renewals. Arbitrary 27 January 2015 distributions are allowed to times to failure as well as to repair and renewal durations. Major preventive Accepted 30 January 2015 maintenance is done periodically or at random times, e.g. when a true demand occurs. In the third Available online 11 February 2015 option process renewal is done if a true demand occurs or when a certain mission time has expired since Keywords: the previous maintenance, whichever occurs first. A practical feature is that even if a repair can renew Maintenance the unit, it does not generally ren
