This book was released on 2018-06-20 with total page 30 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The X-33 reusable launch vehicle demonstrator has identified the need to implement a vehicle health monitoring system that can acquire data that monitors system health and performance. Sanders, a Lockheed Martin Company, has designed and developed a COTS-based open architecture system that implements a number of technologies that have not been previously used in a flight environment. NASA Dryden Flight Research Center and Sanders teamed to demonstrate that the distributed remote health nodes, fiber optic distributed strain sensor, and fiber distributed data interface communications components of the X-33 vehicle health management (VHM) system could be successfully integrated and flown on a NASA F-18 aircraft. This paper briefly describes components of X-33 VHM architecture flown at Dryden and summarizes the integration and flight demonstration of these X-33 VHM components. Finally, it presents early results from the integration and flight efforts. Schweikhard, Keith A. and Richards, W.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: High-Reliability Autonomous Management Systems for Spacecraft updates on research on three levels of self-management, including: 1) Autonomous health management of spacecraft that covers how spacecraft can monitor their own state and autonomously detect, isolate and recover from faults; 2) Autonomous mission management of spacecraft where the spacecraft can directly receive the mission, formulate a reasonable plan according to the current state and working environment of the spacecraft, and convert the mission into a specific sequence of instructions; 3) Spacecraft autonomous data management where the spacecraft processes a large amount of raw data and extracts useful information, and autonomously executes or changes flights. The autonomous management of spacecraft uses modern control technologies such as artificial intelligence to establish a remote intelligent body on the spacecraft so that the spacecraft can complete its flight tasks by itself. Its goal is to accurately perceive its own state and external environment without relying on external information injection and control or rely on external control as little as possible. Divides the autonomous management level of spacecraft into two levels, autonomy and execution Covers the implementation of spacecraft autonomous management into three aspects, including autonomous health management of the spacecraft, mission management, and converting the mission into a specific sequence of instructions Discusses how these processes can take a large amount of raw data and extract useful information Covers the autonomous management model of the spacecraft, including compatibility

Download or read book Advanced Analytics and Artificial Intelligence Applications written by Ali Soofastaei and published by BoD – Books on Demand. This book was released on 2019-11-13 with total page 114 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Computers and machines were developed to reduce time consumption and manual human efforts to complete projects efficiently. With fast-growing technologies in the field, we have finally reached a stage where almost everyone in the world has access to these high technologies. However, this is just a starting phase because future development is taking a more advanced route in the shape of artificial intelligence (AI). Although AI is under the computer science umbrella, nowadays there is no field unaffected by this high technology. The overall aim of using intelligence learning methods is to train machines to think intelligently and make decisions in different situations the same as humans. Previously, machines were doing what they were programmed to do, but now with AI, devices can think and behave like a human being. This book aims to present the application of advanced analytics and AI in different industries as practical tools to develop prediction, optimization, and make decision models.

Download or read book Integrated Vehicle Health Management written by Timothy Wilmering and published by SAE International. This book was released on 2017-07-24 with total page 118 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Integrated Vehicle Health Management (IVHM) is the unified capability of a system of systems (SoS) to assess the current or future state of the member system health, and integrate it within a framework of available resources and operational demand. As systems complexities have increased, so have system support costs, driven by more frequent and often enigmatic subsystem failures. IVHM strategies can be used to mitigate these issues by taking a Systems of Systems view. Combined with advanced decision support methods, this approach can be used to more effectively predict, isolate, schedule, and repair failed subsystems, reducing platform support costs and minimizing platform down time. Integrated Vehicle Health Management- System of Systems Integration brings together ten seminal SAE technical papers addressing the challenges and solutions to maintaining highly complex vehicles. The strategy requires that the IVHM system must provide actionable decision support to operators and maintainers, informing platform operational capabilities and maintenance procedures. The goal is to prevent a given component from degrading to the point of failure or predictable impending failure. Specifications should also reflect a common means for communicating this information to other health- ready IVHM system components.
Download or read book Evaluation of the National Aerospace Initiative written by National Research Council and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2004-06-16 with total page 146 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The National Aerospace Initiative (NAI) was conceived as a joint effort between the Department of Defense (DOD) and the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to sustain the aerospace leadership of the United States through the acceleration of selected aerospace technologies: hypersonic flight, access to space, and space technologies. The Air Force became concerned about the NAI's possible consequences on Air Force programs and budget if NAI program decisions differed from Air Force priorities. To examine this issue, it asked the NRC for an independent review of the NAI. This report presents the results of that assessment. It focuses on three questions asked by the Air Force: is NAI technically feasible in the time frame laid out; is it financially feasible over that period; and is it operationally relevant.

Download or read book Integrated Vehicle Health Management written by Ian K Jennions and published by SAE International. This book was released on 2013-09-25 with total page 242 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Integrated Vehicle Health Management (IVHM) is a relatively new subject, with its roots back in the space sector of the early 1990s. Although many of the papers written around that time did not refer to it as IVHM, the fundamental principles of considering an integrated end-to-end system to monitor the overall health of the asset were clearly visible. As the subject of Integrated Vehicle Health Management (IVHM) and its associated technologies have grown up, businesses are making the transformation from selling a product to selling a service. This can be viewed as a positive disruption, as a relatively small technology breakthrough is being brought to market for a large business benefit. The sequence “sense—acquire—transfer—analyze—act “ feeds the information (processed data) on the asset’s health into the Operations or Management control center. Here, decisions can be made on maintenance actions with knowledge of the supply chain status, MRO loading, etc., provided by Maintenance and Logistics systems. Undoubtedly, a much more efficient and economical modus operandi. This book brings together a collection of twenty –two SAE International Technical papers on this very theme, organized according to specific areas of interest: • Engines • Airframes • Electrical Power Systems • Supporting Systems • Architecture They were selected by Dr. Ian K. Jennions, Director of IVHM Center at Cranfield University, in the UK. Dr. Jennions was also the editor of three other books on Integrated Vehicle Health Management, published by SAE International: • IVHM: Perspectives on an Emerging Field • IVHM: Business Case Theory and Practice • IVHM: The Technology

Download or read book Human Factor Considerations in the Implementation of IVHM written by HM-1 Integrated Vehicle Health Management Committee and published by . This book was released on 2020 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This SAE Aerospace Information Report (AIR) offers information on how human factors should be considered when developing and implementing IVHM capabilities for both military and civil fixed wing aircraft. These considerations will cover the perception, analysis, and action taken by the flight crew and the maintenance personnel in response to outputs from the IVHM system. These outputs would be onboard realtime for the flight crew and post flight for maintenance. This document is not intended to be a guideline; it is intended to provide information that should be considered when designing and implementing future IVHM systems. Integrated vehicle health management (IVHM) capabilities are increasingly being implemented, in whole or in part, on aerospace fixed-wing vehicles. These capabilities furnish diagnostic and prognostic information regarding the vehicle state. The information provided to the human in the loop should be unequivocal with clear instructions to avoid unexpected and potentially dangerous situations. This document provides information concerning human factors and safety considerations regarding future IVHM systems. The information in this SAE Aerospace Information Report (AIR) is also intended to be of assistance to IVHM design engineers by providing illustrative examples of real-life catastrophic events which could have been mitigated by elements of an IVHM capability.
