Abstract
The authors apply periodic replacement with minimal repair at failure to cumulative damage models: a unit is replaced at time T , at shock N , or at damage Z and undergoes minimal repair between replacements. The mean cost-rate is obtained, and each optimal T *, N *, and Z * to minimize the cost-rate is discussed. A numerical example is given for an exponential case
