General-purpose tool for the simulation and analysis of maintenance data. In VI Congresso Ibero-Americano de Empreendedorismo, Energia, Meio Ambiente e Tecnologia. Instituto Politécnico de Bragança978-972-745-285-9http://hdl.handle.net/10198/28218This paper covers general mathematical and simulation models for the reliability and availability analysis of repairable systems along with estimation methods and model selection criterion. A combined mathematical and simulation model is proposed, based on the trend-renewal process. This model is then integrated into a generalpurpose tool, for automated modelling of repairable systems. Estimators for different performance measures of the systems are presented. Furthermore, a preliminary quantitative study is conducted on real data from the food industry together with a presentation of the implemented tool functionalities.porRepairable systemsTrend-renewal processSimulationReliability analysisAvailabilityconference object
