abstract = "Currently, aerospace and automotive industries are developing
complexand/or highly integrated systems, whose services require
greater confidence to meet a set of specifications that are
increasingly demanding, such as successfully operating a
communications satellite, a commercial airplane, an automatic
automobile, and so on. To meet these requirements and
expectations, there is a growing need for fault treatment, up to
predict faults and monitor the health of the components,
equipment, subsystems or systems used. In the last decades, the
approaches of 1) Fault Prevention, 2) Fault Detection/Tolerance
and 3) Fault Detection/Correction have been widely studied and
explored. Now, also due to the increasing power of computation and
communication and their decreasing prices and lead times, the 4)
Fault Prognosis/Prediction and Health Monitoring Approach (PHM) is
a rising subject in the scientific and engineering community,
demanding methodologies that allow us to increase system
reliability, availability, maintainability (RAM), productivity,
mission autonomy and reduce operational delays and costs. So: This
paper presents a discussion on fault prognosis/prediction and
health monitoring techniques to improve the reliability of
aerospace and automotive systems. To do that, it: 1) reviews the
literature on the fields of fault prognosis/prediction and health
monitoring of aerospace and automotive systems; 2) summarize some
reports of cases, highlighting the tools and methodologies used;
3) briefly compare them with the other 3 approaches for fault
treatment; 4) include a list of published or on-going related
standards; 5) discuss their applicability to aerospace and
automotive systems, aiming to stimulate their application and
identify research and development opportunities in these fields.
Based on all this, we expect to show that the application of fault
prognosis/prediction and health monitoring techniques to
components, equipment, subsystems or systems can: 1) provide
significant gains in terms of analysis, decision-making and
anticipation of faults; 2) increase system reliability,
availability, maintainability (RAM), productivity, mission
autonomy and reduce operational delays and costs in the aerospace
and automotive industries;3) shortly and mainly, avoid system
failures. Positions and opinions advanced in this paper are those
of the author(s) and not necessarily those of SAE. The authors
