The total life-cycle management of the building engineering system integrates all the elements (including goals, objects, processes, technology, etc.) of the engineering management in the dimension of the total life-cycle, thus achieving the overrall optimal goal of the engineering life-cycle system. For the realization of the engineering total life-cycle management, the engineering breakdown structure (EBS) is adopted: according to function and professional (technical) system, decomposing the engineering system into engineering subsystems with certain fineness. EBS can realize the whole-process integrated management of engineering planning, design, construction and operation, and technically support the total life-cycle management of all construction activities. Based on EBS, the total life-cycle management of the building engineering can ensure security, reliability and efficiency in the operation of the engineering total life cycle, focusing on the high-level goals of resource-saving, cost optimization, harmony with the environment, health and sustainable development.

Availability is one of the most used terms in maintainability engineering. This concept is used to denote: The quality of service of an engineering system, i.e., machines, weak points’ analysis, asset management, as well as making decisions in the process of life cycle management. Availability is an overall indicator and contains partial indicators that are oriented towards reliability, maintenance, and logistical support. Availability presents a variable value and changes in time and space. Usually, availability is shown as the coefficient of time use of the machine. This approach is not good enough because it does not go into the structure of the availability itself and requires a high level of IT support in system monitoring. In this sense, this paper will use the fuzzy theory and the corresponding analytic hierarchy process (AHP) multi-criteria analysis to present a conceptual and mathematical model for the assessment of availability based on expert judgment. The model will be shown in the case study (on the example) of bulldozers working in the open-pit lignite mine.

The life cycle management of navy vessels quality is presented, and the quality of various phases in the navy vessels life cycle is academically described. On the management of phase quality, taking shipbuilding as an example, the definition of the phase quality is provided, requirements of comprehensive quality management are discussed, which include the total-staff participation, the whole process of management, comprehensive approach and concept of quality. On the integrated quality management of the navy vessels life cycle, the mode that staffs participating in the various stages of life cycle, and integrated requirements of ship design, modeling & simulation environment are proposed. Technical support and realization of the quality management of navy vessels life cycle are presented, which has laid the foundation for the realization of the quality management of navy vessel.

This paper applies the total-life-cycle management theory to the construction and development of low-carbon buildings, and makes analysis of the implementation ways of low-carbon buildings in various stages of project development. So the low-carbon buildings in china can get sustainable development and the low-carbon economy can be realized rapidly.

The research which aimed at low integration and inefficiency of the management in the existing tool management of the machinery manufacturing enterprise (group) in our country, developed tool whole life cycle management system software. It based on the tool whole life cycle theory and adopted Microsoft Visual Basic 6.0 language and Access2003 database. The system could do a series of operation, such as, tool purchasing application, tool adding, tool modifying, tool inquiry, tool borrowing and return, tool breakage forecast. And it could make assembling and disassembling tool sheets according to techniques plan. The system could use network database to store the data and output the data by the form of sheet. And it achieved tool information inquiry, distribution and integrated management.

In recent times, there has been an increase in transport infrastructure failure. This increase is due to aging infrastructure, increased number of extreme weather events caused by climate change, and increased traffic loading. Accordingly, the need for planned and unplanned maintenance interventions is rising. Associated costs do not only involve direct maintenance or reconstruction costs, but also secondary effects experienced by users of the transport network as well as the environment and society in general. Infrastructure managers require tools for accurate quantification of infrastructure resilience that will enable rational adaptation investment strategies, so as to maintain high level of safety of transport networks. Through the development of a Global Safety Framework, at the core of which is a Multi-modal Network Decision Support Tool, the SAFE-10-T project (Safety of Transport Infrastructure on the TEN-T Network) is providing integrated solutions to issues related to infrastructure safety and planning. The paper presents a reliability-based whole life cycle model developed within this project enabling strategic investment decisions that maximize safety, minimize disruption, and environmental impacts and allow for the best use of limited resources. The model is applied on a case study of a bridge in the Port of Rotterdam in the Netherlands.

Abstract The building sector has a high level of energy consumption caused mainly by the buildings heating and cooling energy demands to satisfy indoor comfort requirements. Reducing both the amount of energy consumed and the life cycle cost is a main challenge for the construction of buildings. It is evident that sustainable materials have low environmental impacts and need low consumption of energetic resources in addition to their durability and recyclability. Therefore, this research aims to test different sustainable materials available in Egypt for the construction of building envelopes that include local stones “Marble and Limestone” and insulation materials “Polyurethane- expanded and Extruded polystyrene (XPS) foam” in order to achieve savings in energy and total life cycle cost. The simulation tests were conducted through Design Builder software. The results aim to provide solutions for building designers to achieve energy-efficiency and costeffective design. The proposed alternatives showed a significant reduction in energy consumption by up to 62% and the total life cycle costs significantly reduced by up to 45.8%.

Considering the problems of the current cutting tools, such as wide varieties, low management efficiency, high cost and selection difficulty, this paper builds a cutting tools total life cycle management system model, by using the total life cycle management concept the total life cycle management of the milling cutters from purchasing to the use and discarding is realized. In this paper, through researching on cutters selection law, rules for milling cutters selection is made and intelligent cutters selection system is established with rule reasoning method.
