Availability Information

We source books from suppliers in Australia and overseas. For books we don't currently have in stock, the time it takes to get them from our suppliers can vary widely - from a few days to a few months - so we check each book with each supplier to determine the expected time it will take to be supplied to us.

We then advise you accordingly. If the time taken to get any book is too long for you, you can let us know and we will cancel or adjust your order, and refund as required.

This book introduces the methods for predicting the future behavior of a system's health and the remaining useful life to determine an appropriate maintenance schedule. The authors introduce the history, industrial applications, algorithms, and benefits and challenges of PHM (Prognostics and Health Management) to help readers understand this highly interdisciplinary engineering approach that incorporates sensing technologies, physics of failure, machine learning, modern statistics, and reliability engineering. It is ideal for beginners because it introduces various prognostics algorithms and explains their attributes, pros and cons in terms of model definition, model parameter estimation, and ability to handle noise and bias in data, allowing readers to select the appropriate methods for their fields of application.

Among the many topics discussed in-depth are:
* Prognostics tutorials using least-squares
* Bayesian inference and parameter estimation
* Physics-based prognostics algorithms including nonlinear least squares, Bayesian method, and particle filter
* Data-driven prognostics algorithms including Gaussian process regression and neural network
* Comparison of different prognostics algorithms The authors also present several applications of prognostics in practical engineering systems, including wear in a revolute joint, fatigue crack growth in a panel, prognostics using accelerated life test data, fatigue damage in bearings, and more. Prognostics tutorials with a Matlab code using simple examples are provided, along with a companion website that presents Matlab programs for different algorithms as well as measurement data. Each chapter contains a comprehensive set of exercise problems, some of which require Matlab programs, making this an ideal book for graduate students in mechanical, civil, aerospace, electrical, and industrial engineering and engineering mechanics, as well as researchers and maintenance engineers in the above fields.

Dr. Nam-Ho Kim is Professor of Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering at the University of Florida. His research areas is structural design optimization, design sensitivity analysis, design under uncertainty, structural health monitoring, nonlinear structural mechanics, and structural-acoustics. He has published three books and more than hundred refereed journal and conference papers in the above areas. Dr. Dawn An received a Bachelor and Master of mechanical engineering from Korea Aerospace University in 2008 and 2010, respectively. She started a joint Ph.D. at Korea Aerospace University and the University of Florida in 2011, and received her Ph.D. in 2015 as a jointly conferred degree. She is now a postdoctoral associate at the University of Florida. Her current research is focused on enhancing prognostics methods for real damage data having limitation in terms of insufficient number of data and large noise in data without physical model. Joo Ho Choi is Professor in the School of Aerospace and Mechanical Engineering, Korea Aerospace University.
