Lesson Learned in the Research and Development of Specialized Vehicle Health Management System: A Hybrid Approach for Decision Support System

Abstract

The reality is that PHM is mostly a matter of the analytic method and process of building tailored and hybrid functional DSS to meet various requirements in field of maintenance and logistics support, not only creating models and algorithms in black box which is philosophical basis of so many PHM universal platforms, especially in the concept and design stage of systems. Some issues under discussions are presented firstly. Then, the critical cases analysis method is described, and the demonstration on the different level of specialized vehicle health management system is shown as human-computer interfaces. Lastly, the preliminary design approach to implement PHM system is presented. In addition, potential difficult points in practice are investigated for R&D of PHM.
