Prognostics and Health Management Short Course
The CALCE PHMC offers a short course that presents the concepts, methods and sample applications of health monitoring and prognostics.The course is a more practical version of the University of Maryland graduate course: ENME808A - Prognostics and Health Management.
The course presents the tools and techniques for development and implementation of prognostics and health monitoring in terms of novel methods for in-situ monitoring, approaches for resource efficient data collection, algorithms for data reduction and parameter extraction, software for damage assessment, methods for identifying and analyzing precursors based on failure mechanisms, and techniques for predictions that can be used for assisting maintenance and logistics decisions. Different approaches for prognostics are presented along with implementation case-studies.
Topics covered:
- Reliability and prognostics
- Needs and benefits of prognostics
- Approaches for prognostics
- Fuses and canaries
- Monitoring failure precursors
- Monitoring environmental and usage conditions
- In-situ monitoring techniques
- Making predictions
- Prognostics for electronic products
- Examples and case studies of prognostics and health management
Targeted training programs can also be arranged for your organization.
