Research on Genetic Algorithm(GA) Based Aircraft Spare Parts Cost Optimization

Aircraft spare part costs directly affect aircraft spare part support probabilities;in turn,aircraft spare part support probabilities affect spare part delay time,thus having a significant influence on the maintenance support and aircraft readiness rate.Therefore,the efficient use of limited spare part cost is important for better readiness rates.In this paper,a function relationship between readiness rate and spare part cost is derived and the solution of a spare part cost optimization model is discussed using a genetic algorithm.
