Summary
A novel intelligent prognostics platform for complex cyberphysical systems. This project aims to develop a novel data-driven dynamic reliability assessment platform to improve predictive maintenance ability in complex cyberphysical systems (CPSs). This will be achieved by identifying which degradation mechanism(s) are likely to cause an impending failure, and then highlighting the event to trigger for maintenance service or control operation. The expected outcomes are new methods and tools neede ....A novel intelligent prognostics platform for complex cyberphysical systems. This project aims to develop a novel data-driven dynamic reliability assessment platform to improve predictive maintenance ability in complex cyberphysical systems (CPSs). This will be achieved by identifying which degradation mechanism(s) are likely to cause an impending failure, and then highlighting the event to trigger for maintenance service or control operation. The expected outcomes are new methods and tools needed to leverage failure prognostics and prognostics-informed maintenance/control for making CPSs resilient with reduced levels of redundancy. This research will produce major advancements in extending core components’ life and durability in complex CPSs, bringing economic benefit for Australia industry.Read moreRead less
Enabling ambient intelligence for manufacturing processes through distributed camera networks. This project will develop methods to optimise and schedule networks of smart and traditional cameras in a manufacturing environment, enabling knowledge capture, manage performance and identify causes of quality degradation. This research will assist Australian manufacturers to stay competitive in the dynamic global market.
Adaptive scenario generation and performance evaluation for virtual training of helicopter pilots. Helicopters are widely used for operations such as remote transport, surveying, search and rescue and medical evacuation. 76 helicopter fatalities were recorded in Australia over the last decade. This project will develop effective pilot training methods, delivered through virtual simulation, to improve aviation safety.
