Forthcoming articles have been peer-reviewed and accepted for publication but are pending final changes, are not yet published and may not appear here in their final order of publication until they are assigned to issues. Therefore, the content conforms to our standards but the presentation (e.g. typesetting and proof-reading) is not necessarily up to the Inderscience standard. Additionally, titles, authors, abstracts and keywords may change before publication. Articles will not be published until the final proofs are validated by their authors.

Forthcoming articles must be purchased for the purposes of research, teaching and private study only. These articles can be cited using the expression "in press". For example: Smith, J. (in press). Article Title. Journal Title.

  • Life cycle cost model of remanufacturing-oriented retired engine product under uncertain conditions   Order a copy of this article
    by Junli Shi, Fangli Shu, Zhongchi Lu, Mengmeng Ren, Huanhuan Xu 
    Abstract: The life cycle cost of retired engine product present highly uncertainty due to the different working conditions, service time and damage status. This study proposed a life cycle cost model for remanufacturing-oriented engine product under uncertain conditions based on the theory of life cycle cost (LCC). In this model, the system boundary of the life cycle is established firstly, then the quantitative damage level of used product is defined, and next the cost calculation model in each life cycle stage is introduced, finally the nonlinear function model of life cycle cost with service time and damage level is established. The connecting rod of a retired engine is taken as the case study, the results demonstrate the validity of the proposed model, and the results can provide decision support for engine remanufacturing from the whole society resource consumption.
    Keywords: remanufacturing; life cycle cost; LCC; uncertainty; damage level; service time; engine connecting rod.
