Load-dependent machine failures in production network models

Probability 2019-12-13 v1

Abstract

In this paper, a production model based on (hyperbolic) differential equations with stochastic and load-dependent machine failures is introduced. We derive the model on the base of a well-established deterministic model and show its well-posedness. To do so, we make use of the theory of piecewise deterministic Markov processes and fuse it with the theory of the underlying deterministic production model. Finally, we compare the load-dependent model to the already established load-independent model and highlight the new properties in numerical examples.
