Abstract
This paper considers the maintenance of an operational system consisting of a number of independent and identical units. These units are required to be in service at all times and are supported by a maintenance float. Reliability analysis is used to study the effect of preventive maintenance and repair on the float factor determination. Numerical examples have also been included to illustrate the mathematical findings.
