Efficient harmony search optimization for preventive-maintenance-planning for nuclear power systems

This paper combines the universal generating function UGF with harmony search (HSO) meta-heuristic optimization method to solve a preventive maintenance (PM) problem for series-parallel system. In this work, we consider the situation where system and its components have several ranges of performance...
