Research on the method of merging and optimizing functional item with support equipment

Abstract

This paper proposes the support equipment function merging criterions based on the support function equivalent relationships and the optimization target parameter of different support equipment categories. First, the definition of equipment catalogue optimization target parameter (ECPM) is given. Then, the authors elaborate the support equipment categories merging optimization method on the base of support function equivalence relationship and ECPM. In the end, a numerical example is presented. In general, this paper provides a theoretical support for support equipment categories merging optimization and the method can be used during the materiel's development phase.
