Simulation Governance is Critical for Reliable Condition-Based (Predictive) Maintenance
This webinar recording includes a case study in which the goal was the development of a mathematical model for supporting condition-based maintenance (CBM) decisions. The model was designed for estimating the remaining fatigue service life of high-value mechanical components, given their service history and that specific flaws (such as corrosion defects) have been discovered in them, thus enabling CBM to move damaged component removals from unscheduled to scheduled maintenance action.
