For the discrete-time periodic replacement policy, a product is preventively replaced at pre-specified operation cycles N, 2N, 3N, \u2026 (N = 1, 2, \u2026). When the product fails, a minimal repair is performed at the time of failure and the failure rate is not disturbed by each repair. From the customer's perspective, the cost models are developed for both a warranted and a nonwarranted product, and the corresponding optimal periodic replacement policies are derived such that the long-run expected cost rates are minimized. Under the assumption of the discrete time increasing failure rate (IFR), the existence and uniqueness of the optimal N* are shown, and the impacts of a FMRW on the optimal replacement policies are investigated analytically. We found that the optimal N* for a warranted product should be adjusted toward the end of the warranty period. <\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1142\/s0217595912400209","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2012,6,11]],"date-time":"2012-06-11T12:22:08Z","timestamp":1339417328000},"page":"1240020","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":1,"title":["OPTIMAL DISCRETE-TIME PERIODIC REPLACEMENT POLICY FOR REPAIRABLE PRODUCTS UNDER FREE MINIMAL REPAIR WARRANTY"],"prefix":"10.1142","volume":"29","author":[{"given":"FU-MIN","family":"CHANG","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Finance, Chaoyang University of Technology, No. 168, Jifong E.
