Condition-Based Maintenance in Aviation: The History, The Business
and The Technology describes the history and practice of
Condition-Based Maintenance (CBM) systems by showcasing ten
technical papers from the archives of SAE International, stretching
from the dawn of the jet age down to the present times. By
scientifically understanding how different components degrade
during operations, it is possible to schedule inspections, repairs,
and overhauls at appropriate intervals so that any incipient
failure can be detected well in advance. Today, this includes more
sensors and analytics so that periodic inspections are replaced by
automated “continuous” inspections, and analytical methods that
detect imminent failures and predict degradation issues more
economically and efficiently. Similar concepts are also being
developed for delivering prognostics functions, such as tracking of
remaining useful life (RUL) of life-limited parts in aircraft
engines. The discipline within CBM that deals with this is called
prognostics and health management (PHM), which covers all aspects
of diagnostics and prognostics, including modeling of systems and
subsystems, sensing, data transmission, storage and retrieval,
analytical methods, and decision making. Traditionally,
nondestructive testing (NDT) methods have been employed during the
major airplane checks to assess structural damage. These techniques
are enhanced with in- situ sensing techniques that can continuously
monitor aircraft structures and report on their health. The move to
condition-based assessment of maintenance needs to be balanced by
the assurance that safety is not compromised, that initial cost of
new equipment is amortized by the savings, and that regulatory
authorities are on board with any modifications to the planned
maintenance schedule. The trend is clearly to include more CBM
functions into Maintenance, Repair and Overhaul (MRO) processes so
better cost control can be achieved without ever comprising
passenger safety.
