IVHM-EVOLVE - Ecosystem of Intelligent Self-Organising Sensor Nodes for Helicopter Health Monitoring

EVOLVE项目将通过创建监测系统可以学习和适应被监测组件的健康状况的环境，从而导致现有IVHM的持续发展，并且还将有助于降低成本和安装影响，同时将IVHM的范围扩展到以前无法访问的组件。目标是将IVHM带入一个新时代，在这个时代，车载监测系统开始像人类一样思考和反应——在正确的时间和正确的区域采取正确的行动。该项目将推进为英国IVHM供应链创造竞争优势所需的核心技术，并为未来英国直升机销售提供明显的差异化优势。使用智能、自组织的传感器节点，可以根据飞机当前的健康状况调整系统的优先级，集中在异常存在的地方进行采集和处理，以及调整数据速率和特征提取算法，将显著提高健康监测技术的有效性和可靠性。由此产生的诊断将允许加强决策，实现有意义和及时的维护行动。

The EVOLVE project will result in continued evolution of existing IVHM by creating an environment in which monitoring systems can learn and adapt to the health of the components being monitored, and will also contribute to reduced cost and installation impact, whilst extending the reach of IVHM to previously-inaccessible components. The aim is to move IVHM into a new era, where on-board monitoring systems begin to think and respond more like humans – to take the right action, at the right time, and in the right area. This project will advance the core technologies required to create competitive advantage for the UK IVHM Supply Chain and provide a clear differentiator for future UK helicopter sales. Use of intelligent, self-organising, sensor nodes which can adapt and prioritise the system around the current health of the aircraft – focussing acquisition & processing where anomalies exist, as well as tuning data rates and feature extraction algorithms – will significantly enhance the effectiveness and reliability of health monitoring techniques. The resulting diagnostics will permit enhanced decision-making, enabling meaningful and timely maintenance actions.
