Development of Maintenance METRICS to Forecast Resource Demands of Weapon Systems. (Analysis and Results of Metrics and Weightings). Revision A.

Abstract

This report describes the method and results of the eighth task to Develop Maintenance METRICS to Forecast Resource Demands of Weapon Systems. The purpose of this task was to perform simulation experiments with existing LCOM aircraft simulators using the newly developed maintenance metrics and weightings in order to validate the techniques and data developed during the course to this study. The findings indicate that the new maintenance metrics predictor equations can provide acceptable estimations of overall aircraft maintenance demand rates under a wide variety of equipment, operational, and environmental characteristics. These general models could be used for predicting equipment failure rates in many user situations such as LCOM analyses and new aircraft concept definition.
