Integration von Verlässlichkeitsmodellen der Entwicklung in einen Digitalen Zwilling zur Umsetzung einer vorausschauenden Instandhaltung

Abstract

The development of mechatronic systems increasingly focuses on dependability aspects as reliability and functional safety. Model-based development of mechatronic systems enables for extensive dependability analysis at early design phases. During operation phase, state-of-the-art condition monitoring algorithms as well as methods of advanced control theory ensure an effective dependability investigation. The models used for development of mechatronic systems include substantial information about the architecture, behavior and dependability of the investigated system. Based on these models, a digital twin for use in predictive maintenance can be set up and combined with condition monitoring data of the real system. The integration of those models into a digital twin offers extensive potentials and supports its setup. The paper at hand describes and illustrates the integration of these models and shows the potentials that arise from the use of digital twins for predictive maintenance.
