Using simulation, data mining, and knowledge discovery techniques for optimized aircraft engine fleet management Conference Paper uri icon

abstract

  • This paper presents an innovative methodology that combines simulation, data mining, and knowledge-based techniques to determine the near- and long-term impacts of candidate aircraft engine maintenance decisions, particularly in terms of life-cycle cost (LCC) and operational availability. Simulation output is subjected to data mining analysis to understand system behavior in terms of subsystem interactions and the factors influencing life-cycle metrics. The insights obtained through this exercise are then encapsulated as policies and guidelines supporting better life-cycle asset ownership decision-making. 2006 IEEE.
