The greater warranty coverage results in a higher product competitiveness, but that will increase the warranty cost to the manufacturer for servicing the warranty. This becomes a major interest to the manufacturer to reduce the warranty cost. An appropriate servicing strategy involving replacement or imperfect repair can reduce the warranty cost significantly. A variety of such servicing strategies has been studied in the literature, but most of them deal with one dimensional warranties. In this paper, we study servicing strategies which allows preventive maintenance and more then one imperfect repairs for the case of two dimensional warranties. Numerical examples are presented to illustrate the optimal solution (in term of the optimal parameter values of the servicing strategies studied and the corresponding expected warranty costs) and then compare the results with those of the servicing strategy with only two imperfect repair.[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title=”Author keywords” size=”size-sm” text_align=”text-left”][vc_column_text]Imperfect repair,Optimal parameter,Optimal solutions,Product competitiveness,Servicing strategy,Two-dimensional warranty,Warranty costs,Warranty coverage[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title=”Indexed keywords” size=”size-sm” text_align=”text-left”][vc_column_text]Expected warranty cost,Imperfect repair,Servicing strategy,Two-dimensional warranty[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title=”Funding details” size=”size-sm” text_align=”text-left”][vc_column_text][/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title=”DOI” size=”size-sm” text_align=”text-left”][vc_column_text][/vc_column_text][/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1/4″][vc_column_text]Widget Plumx[/vc_column_text][/vc_column_inner][/vc_row_inner][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][/vc_column][/vc_row]
