Abstract: Impact Technologies and Montana State University propose to develop a Dynamic Prognostic and Health Management (PHM) modeling capability and related test, validation, and support toolsets that will enable standardized approaches to model representation, information exchange, and PHM system support, providing for improved integration, interoperability and reuse of developed and emerging capabilities for electronic system health management. Building on device, component, sub-system, and system level condition monitoring and failure progression modeling techniques from physics-based, data driven, and usage realms, and providing support to integrate multiple techniques across multiple levels of instantiation for improved coverage and reduced uncertainty, the Impact - MSU team will leverage existing failure progression data sets to demonstrate feasibility and validate the meta-modeling approach. Results will support the extension and development of industry standards to foster broader acceptance and implementation of open data exchange for system health management.
Benefits: Commercial opportunities for transition come from medical, aerospace, transportation, and information management realms. The need for condition monitoring a failure prediction of increasingly complex systems drives a desire to reduce PHM system complexity through standardization of model and information exchange and data management, Toolsets, supporting the life-cycle management of condition monitoring and PHM systems are required to foster broad adoption and reuse of prognostic technologies.
