IVHM: A new technological paradigmAdapted from an article which previously appeared in Aerospace Engineering magazine

The aims of Integrated Vehicle Health Management (IVHM) include improved safety through the useof diagnostics and prognostics to x faults before they are an issue, as well as improved availability ofeets through better maintenance scheduling.In the past, OEMs and suppliers had very little say on how an airplane was used or maintained. Thatresponsibility fell mostly on the shoulders of the operators. Parts were shipped according to therequirements and timing of the aircraft owner.Today, operators—i.e., airlines—are moving away from such tasks, concentrating their attention onprotably running the business of ying. OEMs and suppliers, on the other hand, are taking over thebusiness of guaranteeing that the planes are ready and able to y as expected. That’s the new contract:availability, reliability, deep asset knowledge, and readiness. The cost of ownership is thus kept on budget,maximizing the potential for bigger margins. The impetus for the IVHM value proposition on the OEMside is a commercial one – the desire to increase or maintain revenue by moving into maintenance, or tocompete in a market that is being eroded by low-cost component suppliers.

In 2011, theSAE IVHM Steering Group dened IVHM as the “unied capability of a system of systems toassess the current or future state of the member system health, and integrate that picture of system healthwithin a framework of available resources and operational demand.” In November 2010,the SAE committeeHM-1, Integrated Vehicle Health Management was established to develop standards related to IVHM.The committee is part of SAE’s IVHM initiative, which also includes the IVHM Steering Group.

The technology of IVHM enables the collection of information on an object’s condition, performance,and location. It also facilitates the transmission of this information, often from hostile environments(e.g., inside a jet engine). In the end though, it is how maintainers use this information that will reallymake a difference. Although there are quite sophisticated tools both for diagnostics and prognostics,what will fundamentally matter are the business drivers that the data will be used to support.IVHM offers organizations options for monitoring of the health of an asset. Decisions can then bemade based on the information that is collected. Primarily, such decisions will enable the maintainerto better schedule maintenance based on actual performance and condition of an asset (theairplane itself, or any of its parts) rather than when a component fails or when regular maintenanceis performed. Any event that leads to a plane malfunction in between these two parameters can beagged and addressed by consistently applying IVHM.For passengers ying from New York to London (or anywhere else for that matter), this will be basicallyan invisible, behind-the-scenes situation. The good news is that airplanes will depart and arrive whenthey are supposed to with no untoward interruptions.

Airline/Maintenance/Regulation panel discussionsheld at IVHM and SHM committee meetingSAE International’sHM-1 Integrated Vehicle Health Management and G-11SHMStructural Health Monitoring and Managementc ommittees held a special panel sessionfeaturing representatives from airlines, maintenance organizations and regulatory agencies attheir March meeting at the Lufthansa Aviation Center, at Frankfurt Airport. The panels featuredrepresentatives from the European Aviation Safety Agency (EASA), UK Military Aviation Authority(MAA), TAP Portugal, Lufthansa Technik, and All Nippon Airways.SAE has dedicated technical committees and panels that are developing recommended practicesand standards for propulsion systems, powerplants, structures, landing gears and other systems, aswell as the integrated vehicle itself.Simon Waite and Alastair Healy of EASA, and RAF Squadron Leader Sean Perkins spoke at the“Regulators Panel” portion of the meeting. Waite discussed the regulatory approach to structuralintegrity in the light of “ARP646: Guidelines on Structural Health Monitoring for AerospaceApplications,” a forthcoming recommended practice developed by SAE’s G-11SHM committee.He used examples of standards and regulations for detection and monitoring on rotorcraft andsmall xed wing aircraft, and urged early dialog between SHM (Structural Health Monitoring)stakeholders and regulators.Healey discussed the legacy of vehicle health management for rotorcraft, and noted that theindustry will drive innovation in IVHM which the regulator will address as required. He also notedthe potential for IVHM to support safety, and described how the organization must maintainan acceptable, pre-dened level of airworthiness and safety through writing certication andoperating requirements, and ensuring compliance with regulators regarding the introduction of newmaintenance practices. EASA is participating in the SAE HM-1 IVHM committee.Perkins discussed the Military Aircraft Authority (MAA), which has been established to addressairworthiness of military aircraf t. Among the MAA’s goals, he said, are producing a mixtureof mandated and good guidance materials, establishing maintenance credits, and providing aregulatory framework that enables evolution. Examples were provided of instances in which xedand rotary wing military aircraft currently utilize health monitoring systemsParticipants in the “End Users Panel” were Nuno Goncalves Soares of TAP Maintenance andEngineering,Olaf Ronsdorf of Lufthansa Technik, andKatsuo Matsuura of ANA. Soaresdiscussed how the airline has installed an aircraft health monitoring system with the goals of quicklytrouble-shooting in-ight, performing maintenance more quickly, and reducing time on the ground.He noted that IVHM was important but that NFF (No Fault Found) was a key challenge.Ronsdorf, the Lufthansa Technik representative on the SAE Aerospace Council ,described how Lufthansa performs Engine Condition Monitoring on 1,520 engines, using their ownor OEM developed algorithms. He discussed the desire for reliable condition based maintenance(CBM) for aircraft systems which can affect operations to reduce unscheduled groundings andmaintenance and increase aircraft availability. He also noted the need for partnership between theOEM and the operator in identifying and using data and trending.Matsuura, ANA Chief Engineer and a member of the SAE Aerospace Council , describedthe evolution of aircraft monitoring capabilities and the value to the airline, and noted the increase inthe number of aircraft systems able to provide diagnostic and prognostic information. He discussedthe aspiration for full aircraft health management and the need for increased availability. ARP6461should pave the way to use SHM as an alternative means of compliance and help enable CBM.In addition, SHM outputs may be a key factor in the evolution of future, more efcient airframedesigns.The insights from all panelists were appreciated by the audience and will help drive forward SAEstandardization activities in all aspects of aircraft systems and vehicle health management.

New recommended practice addresses quality andprocess improvement“SAE J2886, Design Review Based on Failure Modes (DRBFM),” developed by theSAE

Automotive Quality and Process Improvement Committee , was published in March.This Recommended Practice, the rst standard addressing DRBFM, explains the process and itsrecommended steps. It includes examples of how to conduct the process and discusses how DRBFMcan t with activities such as product and process development, validation, production, and changemanagement. DRBFM has been adopted by both automotive and non-automotive companies.“There is a growing demand for DRBFM information due to the interest of companies from multipleindustries and the expectation of the global supply base to utilize the process as well,” saidBillHaughey, Chairman of the J2886 DRBFM Task Force . “Companies tend to use slightvariations of the process, which can cause complexity for suppliers that support multiple companies.Development of a recommended practice has been supported by users of DRBFM from bothmanufactures and suppliers.”J2886 describes the basic principles and processes of DRBFM including planning, preparation,change point FMEA, design reviews, decisions based on actions completed, and feedback loops toother processes such as design and validation.

J2886 is intended for use by organizations whose product development processes currently useFailure Mode & Effects Analysis (FMEA) or DRBFM as a tool for assessing the potential riskand reliability of system elements (product or process) or as part of their product improvementprocesses. DRBFM is not intended to replace FMEA; however, companies interested in adoptingDRBFM will benet from the focus on specic change points and supporting engineering decisionsbased on detailed discussions.

New committee, working group chairs namedJim Ide of Nexans in Elm City, North Carolina, has been named the new system group chair ofthe Aerospace Electronics and Electrical Systems Group. He is also chair of the AE-8 AerospaceElectrical/Electronic Distribution Systems committee.Professor Fu-Kuo Chang of Stanford University andChris Carella of UTAS have been namedChair and Co-Chair respectively of the new Rotorcraft group of the G-11SHM Structural HealthMonitoring and Management committee.The SAE Aerospace Standards Development program thanks these individuals for volunteering tolead these committees.

From the perspective of the operator, the result is having more planes in the air with a lot fewerunknowns on the ground (i.e., margin improvement and higher levels of customer satisfaction). Itwill not be acceptable for a plane to be delayed at the gate for a “cause unknown.” The situationwill demand the unequivocal location of a faulty LRU (line replaceable unit), so it can be dealt with,getting the aircraft back on the runway. It will also require a movement from accurate diagnosis of afault, with fault forwarding so that the aircraft can be repaired on the ground, to prognostics wherethe necessary repair is known for some time in advance, and maintenance booked when convenient.The industry is in the midst of the dawn of a new technological paradigm in commercial aviation. Inthe next decade or so, the technology behind IVHM will be both an enabler of new processes and adisruption to old ones, with its value affecting safety, operations, and the nancial aspects of the business .

The SAE A-21 Aircraft Noise Measurement and Aircraft Noise/Aviation Modeling

Committee addresses all facets of aircraft noise measurement – processes, testing, modeling,and analysis. It is responsible for standards and engineering activities related to interior andexterior noise associated with aircraft and their environments. The group coordinates aircraft noisemeasurement efforts with a variety of organizations internationally, such as ICAO, AIRMOD, CAA,FAA, U.S. DOT, NASA, MIT, and U.S. and European rotorcraft forums.The SAE E-33 In-Flight Propulsion Measurement Committee addresses all facets ofin-ight thrust measurement and its uncertainty through the review of current industry methodsand procedures, and determines whether the need for additional measures exists. The groupis dedicated to creating, preparing, and maintaining all relevant specications, standards andrequirements for in-ight propulsion measurement.If you are interested in participating in these or other SAE standards committees, visit http://www.sae.org/standardsdev/participateReq.htm, or contact Kerri Rohall at [email protected] or 1-724-772-7161.

Gain a competitive advantage. Impact your bottom line.Invest in standards.Standards. The workhorse documents that commonize practices, processes, and products throughoutthe aerospace industry are also paramount to the advancement of technology. Standards documentsare more than the practices of today. They account for history and anticipate the future of technology,regulation, and business. The direct benets of standards are simple in concept but extraordinary intheir global impact toward ever-safer, cleaner, more efcient worldwide transportation.

Technical standards enable and enhance:• consistent and clear expectations for product performance and reliability• regulatory compliance• consistent product quality• compatibility and interoperability• more ef cient procurement

Standardization also:• lowers trade barriers• lowers purchasing costs• decreases design time• promotes innovation• increases new technology speed to market

Because industry can rely on standards for globally harmonized solutions to common issues,individual companies can devote more time and resources to advance their proprietary technology. Inthis way, standards help foster competition, which advances the collective technology of industry andin turn, creates the need for new and revised standards. This has been the cycle for nearly a centuryof aerospace standards solutions.And, at the heart of those solutions is SAE International, the world’s largest, most respectedaerospace standards development organization (SDO). From design to build, operate, and maintain,SAE International works hand-in-hand with the global aerospace community to advance industry.While participation in the standards development process helps the advancement of the industry itcan also contribute to the advancement of your company and personal career.

Corporate Benets• Input into the direction of the standards• Competitive intelligence through advance knowledge of standard direction• Advance warning of pending regulations and in uence over the technical basis of the regulation• Product liability protections• Strong relationships with customers and suppliers

• Association with the leading society for advancing mobility technology

Individual Benets• Professional development from working contact with peers• Peer recognition for advancing your industry’s sectors technologies• Excellent networking and learning opportunities from product developers/users around the world• Discover emerging technologies• Contribute to the industry’s body of technical knowledge
