This introductory textbook links theory with practice using real illustrative cases involving products, plants and infrastructures and exposes the student to the evolutionary trends in maintenance.
* Provides an interdisciplinary approach which links, engineering, science, technology, mathematical modelling, data collection and analysis, economics and management
* Blends theory with practice illustrated through examples relating to products, plants and infrastructures
* Focuses on concepts, tools and techniques
* Identifies the special management requirements of various engineered objects (products, plants, and infrastructures)
