Overview
Term NFF points to the fact that real failure remains hidden during the general troubleshooting due to its random nature. Hence, the potential failure cannot be fixed by evaluating technicians; and of course, it profoundly adds to the maintenance costs.
Features
- The No Fault Found Resistant Control System student will have the opportunity to work with National Instruments products including Compact-Rio and Labview in developing control systems, fault injection and emulation, collaborating with experts in the prognostics, diagnostics and condition monitoring field, as well as being part of our active and dynamic research centre at Cranfield University.
Programme Structure
Curriculum:
- The Integrated Vehicle Health Management (IVHM) Centre is a major collaborative venture at Cranfield, started in 2008, with funding from the East of England Development Agency (EEDA). IVHM is a consortium of core industrial partners, (Boeing, BAE Systems, Rolls-Royce, Meggitt, Thales, MOD and Alstom); and from EPSRC.
- The investment, over the first five years of operation, was approaching £10M. We are now in our eighth year of exploitation, and the Centre has grown into other sectors (rail, energy, health and agriculture), and is financially self-sustaining; many of the partners (and others) are funding Applied Research projects, and there is a growing revenue from EPSRC, TSB and EU funded work.
