This research developed an approach to reliable team formation and supplier network design, focusing on a multi-objective model integrating fuzzy-set theory and social network analysis. The approach simultaneously focuses on reliable collaboration network, order allocation, capabilities (skills,...

The nature of electro-optical equipment in various industries and the pursuit of the goal of reducing costs demand high reliability on the part of electro-optical systems. In this respect, reliability improvement could be addressed through a reliability allocation problem. Subsystem reliability...

"This book provides instructions to enhance productivity and sustainability by using Quality Engineering Techniques (QET) in statistical and non-statistical projects. It presents an integrated format for better management of traditional processes in industrial factories"--

Purpose: The paper analyzes the relative performance of provincial gas distribution companies with different types of inputs and outputs. A data envelopment analysis (DEA)-based model is developed to construct an equilibrium efficient frontier in the presence of multi-type input/output...

Purpose: The purpose of this paper is to find the proper statistical distribution function, which can cover the failure time of a single machine or a group of machines. To this end, an innovative program is written in an Excel software, capable of assessing at least six statistical distribution...

Purpose: Decision-Making Grid (DMG) is used for determining maintenance tactics and is associated with the reliability and risk management of assets. In this grid, decision making is performed based on two indicators of Mean Time to Repair (MTTR) and frequency of failures. The purpose of this...
