dc.description.abstractThis MS thesis studies the effect of uncertainty in the demand of finished products, supply of raw materials, and maintenance resources availability on the maintenance schedule of a manufacturing facility. A simulation model is formulated in order to realistically model manufacturing systems of various complexities, consisting of multiple interacting machines that degrade and fail over time, and are repaired using imperfectly available maintenance crews and resources. A design of experiments (DOE) based sensitivity study is conducted to find the system parameters that mostly affected the maintenance decisions and corresponding profits.en
