Notation

Description

\(i\)

Asset index

\(n\)

Total number of considered assets

\(r\)

Run index

\(k\)

Index of the iteration for each run \(r\)

\({t}_{i}^{k,r}\)

Time of execution of the maintenance of asset \(i\) in the sequence defined at iteration \(k\) of run \(r\)

\(\widetilde{k}\)

Number of iterations after which the parameter \(b\) changes its value

\(K\)

Maximum number of the considered iterations for each run \(r\)

\(R\)

Total number of runs

\({DD}_{i}^{\tau }\)

Due date of the maintenance intervention according to asset status

\({\pi }_{i}\)

Static asset criticality related to the type of asset

\({\pi p}_{i}^{\tau }\)

Asset criticality in the considered time horizon τ related to the passenger flow

\(p\left(k,r,i\right)\)

Position of asset \(i\) in the sequence at iteration \(k\) of run \(r\)

\({e}_{i}\)

Time penalty for postponing asset \(i\) in the sequence, that is, the average duration of maintenance execution

\({S}_{{j}_{\left(k-1\right),r}i}\)

Distance between the asset and the previous one at the iteration \(k-1\) of run \(r\)

\({S}_{{ih}_{\left(k-1\right),r}}\)

Distance between the asset and the following one at the iteration \(k-1\) of run \(r\)

\({\alpha }_{l}\)

Weights to be calibrated

\({t}_{i}^{k,r}-{DD}_{i}\)

Indication of asset degradation/status
