The selected aspects of determining the technical readiness of cars in a transport system scheduled to be operated

Abstract This paper is focused on determining the technical readiness of cars in a transport system scheduled to be operated. In this way, cars are used in natural or military disaster recovery systems. Determining the technical readiness according to the average number of defects without taking account of the intensity of using them and mileage at the beginning of operation prevents from making a detailed assessment of the technical readiness of particular cars up to date. This manuscript attempts to prove a thesis that determining the operational readiness of cars, especially those scheduled to be operated, including functional and task readiness, requires monitoring of damages in time separate for every car.
