Inventor: PONCET ANDREAS
IPC: G01N3/00
Filed: 2004-01-27
Abstract: The present invention is concerned with the estimation of an irreversible ageing
behaviour as e.g. crack growth in components subject to mechanical load. As the
"consumed lifetime" of a specimen at a given time can be characterized in a valid manner
only by the entire probability distribution of its ageing quantity (e.g. crack size), the
evolution of the distribution is being monitored. In order to minimize the computational
load, this is done by recursively updating the distribution of the ageing quantity, taking into
account the solution of a deterministic ageing equation (e.g. crack growth dynamics).
Preferably, a parametric approximation of the ageing quantity's distribution is evaluated, at
the cost of a loss of accuracy. By means of a probabilistic approach, the invention
overcomes the deterministic predictions underlying existing lifetime monitoring products,
which ignore the empirically demonstrated significant scatter in experimental data. Again,
the task of solving a partial differential equation for the searched (time-varying)
distribution of the ageing quantity can be bypassed by the recursive parametric
approximation of the distribution.
