Prognostics Framework The US Army contract is
funding a Phase III Small Business Innovative Research (SBIR) through NASA that
is for the development and application of a Prognostics Framework. The Prognostics Framework is an expansion of
the Diagnostician into Prognostics. Here, the Diagnostician reads parametric
sensor and Built-in Test (BIT) data over time, and based upon either historical
data, engineering correlations (algorithms) related to degradation, or inputs
from a prognostic mechanism, such as a neural network, provides indications of
when a failure is likely to occur. Here, we are expanding the model-base and
associated reasoning to incorporate parametric analysis of sensor, BIT, and
other data to provide prognostic reasoning across major Army platforms. This is
integrated with diagnostic reasoning to provide a "health management
subsystem" that provides key mission readiness and maintenance requirement
information to 1) battlefield commanders, 2) system operators/crew and 3)
maintenance technicians. The Prognostics Framework is generically applicable to
any system. Go To Prognostics Framework Product Description
