  • Abstract
    This paper presents a mathematical model to predict the number of units of equipment available in the future. The components of this equipment are subject to Poisson failures and replacements are obtained by cannibalization. A numerical example is presented, and some difficulties encountered in the practical application of this model are discussed.
