Research on Integrated Simulation and Modeling of RMS

Correctly assessing the reliability, maintainability, and supportability (RMS) of a complex system is important for predicting its probability of success in performing a mission (i.e., mission success). In this paper, an integrated RMS simulation modeling method is proposed: the generation and propagation of faults are simulated by multi-agent simulation models and discrete event system simulation models are used to model the maintenance and support of faults. A multi-method simulation platform AnyLogic is used to implement the component agent model, the logical agent model, and the maintenance and support discrete event system model, respectively. The case shows that this integrated simulation model has low modeling difficulty, high simulation efficiency, and high adaptability compared with other types of simulation models. The research results represent a further step towards developing complex system simulations. © 2023, Chinese Society for Quality. All rights reserved.
