There is described a process for predictive wear analysis of a component in use on a vehicle, comprising the steps of:
- initialization: parameters are provided identifying start and end of life characteristics of the component, and vehicle mission type and configuration coefficients;
- data acquisition: size measurements relative to the component in use are performed at regular and predetermined time intervals, which are statistically accumulated;
- updating and saving in statistical accumulators: storing of the measurements performed as events occurring at the times of detection within thresholds of predetermined values;
- projection and checking the residual life of the component: the residual life values, or their inverses the wear levels, are logged; a wear rate is calculated on the total of said values and an estimated value of the residual life of the component is obtained correlating it to residual operating values. |
