Predictive Maintenance Advanced Technology
Abstract
This Project matures and demonstrates artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) tools and capabilities to predict and analyze maintenance status for emerging and legacy aviation and ground platforms. Will extract maintenance data from databases and sensor data and make inferences of missing data via virtual simulations and improve and provide AI data capture and other AI tools for enterprise maintenance resource planning for military aviation and ground vehicles. Platforms of focus will be prioritized by cost and value to Army missions and include the UH60, AH64, CH47, Stryker, and Abrams. Each platform will be sequentially evaluated both at the appropriate component (i.e. engine health) and fleet level. This Project matures and demonstrates the use of predictive maintenance to increase fleet operational readiness through reduced downtime by preventing critical failure during missions, maximizing availability to combatant commands. Results from the Project will also be used to inform a robust Army wide predicative maintenance platform that will accelerate the pace of innovation for this problem set. This platform includes data engineering, pipelines, AI development eco-system, and application delivery. All outcomes will be used to inform requirements and technical architectures for modernization efforts of next generation aviation and ground systems both manned and unmanned. The cited research is consistent with Under Secretary of Defense for Research and Engineering priority focus areas and the Army Modernization Strategy. Research in this Project supports the Army Science and Technology Ground Portfolio and the Joint Artificial Intelligence Center (JAIC). Research in this Project is performed by the United States (US) Army Futures Command.
