The research objective of this Grant Opportunity for Academic Liaison with Industry (GOALI) award is to use real-time performance-/condition-based sensor signals to characterize component-to-component degradation interactions in multi-component systems, and use this characterization to improve sensor-based prognostics of complex engineering systems. The general approach used for modeling component interdependencies within a given system has traditionally focused on investigating the effects that a component's failure has on the remaining surviving components. In contrast, this project's approach addresses this challenge at a much more fundamental level by focusing on the effects of gradual and partial degradation of system components rather than the effects of their failures. This will be achieved through a combined stochastic and statistical modeling framework, which will be used to develop adaptive prognostic models for components with interdependent degradation processes. Deliverables for this project include a software with prognostic algorithms, documentation of research results, validation on industrial platform, and engineering student education. The success of this project will have a direct impact on improving human safety, and reducing maintenance and warranty costs of the American automotive industry. Specifically, this GOALI project is conducted in close collaboration with General Motors. It aims to apply the prognostic methods on key components of the Vehicular Electric Power Generation and Storage (EPGS) system. Findings of this research will also benefit many other industrial sectors, including the airline industry, the power generation industry, manufacturing sector, and domains of the service sector. The research agenda will serve as the foundation for the doctoral dissertations of two Ph.D. students, providing them with a rich training experience that combines theoretical and industrial work as well as internship opportunities. Research findings will be incorporated in a Prognostics graduate course. Dissemination will include conference presentations to the academic communities as well as industrial seminars and workshops.

该学术与工业联络机会 (GOALI) 奖项的研究目标是使用实时性能/基于条件的传感器信号来表征多组件系统中组件之间的退化相互作用，并使用此表征来改进复杂工程系统的基于传感器的预测。 用于对给定系统内的组件相互依赖性进行建模的一般方法传统上侧重于研究组件故障对其余幸存组件的影响。 相比之下，该项目的方法通过关注系统组件逐渐和部分退化的影响而不是其故障的影响，从更根本的层面解决了这一挑战。 这将通过随机和统计相结合的建模框架来实现，该框架将用于为具有相互依赖的退化过程的组件开发自适应预测模型。 该项目的交付成果包括具有预测算法的软件、研究结果文档、工业平台验证以及工程学生教育。该项目的成功将对提高人类安全、降低美国汽车行业的维护和保修成本产生直接影响。 具体来说，这个 GOALI 项目是与通用汽车密切合作进行的。 它旨在将预测方法应用于车辆发电和存储（EPGS）系统的关键部件。 这项研究的结果还将惠及许多其他工业部门，包括航空业、发电业、制造业和服务业领域。 研究议程将作为两位博士论文的基础。学生，为他们提供丰富的理论与工业工作相结合的培训经验以及实习机会。 研究结果将纳入预测学研究生课程。 传播将包括向学术界的会议演讲以及工业研讨会和讲习班。
