In this paper we discuss the state of the art in applications of maint
enance optimisation models. After giving a short introduction to the a
rea, we consider several ways in which models may be used to optimise
maintenance, such as case studies, operational and strategic decision
support systems, and give examples of each of them. Next we discuss se
veral areas where the models have been applied successfully. These inc
lude civil structure and aeroplane maintenance. From a comparative poi
nt of view, we discuss future prospects. (C) 1998 Elsevier Science Lim
