A Study on the Life Cycle Cost Calculation of the Maglev Vehicle Based on the maintenance information

초록

Life cycle costing is one of the most effective approaches for the cost analysis of long-life products such as the maglev vehicle. Life cycle costing includes the cost of concept design, development, manufacture, operation, maintenance and disposal. Especially, life cycle costing in the railroad industry has been focused on the maintenance cost even the maglev vehicle. In this paper, the standard, guide and maintenance information of railroad vehicle were investigated, and the unique corrective and preventive maintenance templates and software of maglev vehicle were proposed. Maintenance cost of a few major subsystems of maglev was predicted by using the proposed templates and software. It is expected that these templates and software can help maglev vehicle operators make maintenance strategies with consideration of the cost parameter.
