MODEL FOR COMPARING PERFORMANCE OF VARIOUS TRANSIT MAINTENANCE REPAIR POLICIES

The formulation is described of a simulation model which may be used to test variations of exogenus and endogenous factors that influence the performance of a maintenance system. The application of the model is detailed, and case studies are described. The model is capable of evaluating the marginal impacts of either changes in maintenance planning and scheduling policies or changes in the conditions of the fleet or the maintenance system.
