APPLICATION OF WASPAS IN ENHANCING RELIABILITY CENTERED MAINTENANCE FOR SHIP SYSTEM MAINTENANCE

Аннотация

Reliability Centered Maintenance (RCM) is a widely used approach in the maintenance of complex systems, including ship systems. However, the traditional RCM process can be time-consuming and subjective, requiring expert judgment and extensive data analysis. In recent years, the Weighted Aggregated Sum Product Assessment (WASPAS) method has emerged as a decision-making tool that combines subjective and objective factors in a systematic and efficient manner. This study focuses on the application of WASPAS in enhancing Reliability Centered Maintenance for ship system maintenance. The objective is to demonstrate how WASPAS can improve the decision-making process by considering multiple criteria and providing a comprehensive ranking of maintenance strategies. The study utilizes case studies and simulations to assess the effectiveness and efficiency of applying WASPAS in ship system maintenance. The results highlight the advantages of using WASPAS, such as improved decision-making accuracy, reduced subjectivity, and enhanced overall maintenance performance. The findings contribute to the advancement of Reliability Centered Maintenance practices in the maritime industry.
