IVHM: A new technological paradigmAdapted from an article which previously appeared in Aerospace Engineering magazine
The aims of Integrated Vehicle Health Management (IVHM) include improved safety through the use of diagnostics and prognostics to fi x faults before they are an issue, as well as improved availability of fl eets through better maintenance scheduling.
In the past, OEMs and suppliers had very little say on how an airplane was used or maintained. That responsibility fell mostly on the shoulders of the operators. Parts were shipped according to the requirements and timing of the aircraft owner.
Today, operators—i.e., airlines—are moving away from such tasks, concentrating their attention on profi tably running the business of fl ying. OEMs and suppliers, on the other hand, are taking over the business of guaranteeing that the planes are ready and able to fl y as expected. That’s the new contract: availability, reliability, deep asset knowledge, and readiness. The cost of ownership is thus kept on budget, maximizing the potential for bigger margins. The impetus for the IVHM value proposition on the OEM side is a commercial one – the desire to increase or maintain revenue by moving into maintenance, or to compete in a market that is being eroded by low-cost component suppliers.
In 2011, the SAE IVHM Steering Group defi ned IVHM as the “unifi ed capability of a system of systems to assess the current or future state of the member system health, and integrate that picture of system health within a framework of available resources and operational demand.” In November 2010, the SAE committee HM-1, Integrated Vehicle Health Management was established to develop standards related to IVHM. The committee is part of SAE’s IVHM initiative, which also includes the IVHM Steering Group.
The technology of IVHM enables the collection of information on an object’s condition, performance, and location. It also facilitates the transmission of this information, often from hostile environments (e.g., inside a jet engine). In the end though, it is how maintainers use this information that will really make a difference. Although there are quite sophisticated tools both for diagnostics and prognostics, what will fundamentally matter are the business drivers that the data will be used to support.
IVHM offers organizations options for monitoring of the health of an asset. Decisions can then be made based on the information that is collected. Primarily, such decisions will enable the maintainer to better schedule maintenance based on actual performance and condition of an asset (the airplane itself, or any of its parts) rather than when a component fails or when regular maintenance is performed. Any event that leads to a plane malfunction in between these two parameters can be fl agged and addressed by consistently applying IVHM.
For passengers fl ying from New York to London (or anywhere else for that matter), this will be basically an invisible, behind-the-scenes situation. The good news is that airplanes will depart and arrive when they are supposed to with no untoward interruptions.

Airline/Maintenance/Regulation panel discussions held at IVHM and SHM committee meeting SAE International’s HM-1 Integrated Vehicle Health Management and G-11SHM Structural Health Monitoring and Management committees held a special panel session featuring representatives from airlines, maintenance organizations and regulatory agencies at their March meeting at the Lufthansa Aviation Center, at Frankfurt Airport. The panels featured representatives from the European Aviation Safety Agency (EASA), UK Military Aviation Authority (MAA), TAP Portugal, Lufthansa Technik, and All Nippon Airways.
SAE has dedicated technical committees and panels that are developing recommended practices and standards for propulsion systems, powerplants, structures, landing gears and other systems, as well as the integrated vehicle itself.
Simon Waite and Alastair Healy of EASA, and RAF Squadron Leader Sean Perkins spoke at the “Regulators Panel” portion of the meeting. Waite discussed the regulatory approach to structural integrity in the light of “ARP646: Guidelines on Structural Health Monitoring for Aerospace Applications,” a forthcoming recommended practice developed by SAE’s G-11SHM committee. He used examples of standards and regulations for detection and monitoring on rotorcraft and small fi xed wing aircraft, and urged early dialog between SHM (Structural Health Monitoring) stakeholders and regulators.
Healey discussed the legacy of vehicle health management for rotorcraft, and noted that the industry will drive innovation in IVHM which the regulator will address as required. He also noted the potential for IVHM to support safety, and described how the organization must maintain an acceptable, pre-defi ned level of airworthiness and safety through writing certifi cation and operating requirements, and ensuring compliance with regulators regarding the introduction of new maintenance practices. EASA is participating in the SAE HM-1 IVHM committee.
Perkins discussed the Military Aircraft Authority (MAA), which has been established to address airworthiness of military aircraft. Among the MAA’s goals, he said, are producing a mixture of mandated and good guidance materials, establishing maintenance credits, and providing a regulatory framework that enables evolution. Examples were provided of instances in which fi xed and rotary wing military aircraft currently utilize health monitoring systems
Participants in the “End Users Panel” were Nuno Goncalves Soares of TAP Maintenance and Engineering, Olaf Ronsdorf of Lufthansa Technik, and Katsuo Matsuura of ANA. Soares discussed how the airline has installed an aircraft health monitoring system with the goals of quickly trouble-shooting in-fl ight, performing maintenance more quickly, and reducing time on the ground. He noted that IVHM was important but that NFF (No Fault Found) was a key challenge.
Ronsdorf, the Lufthansa Technik representative on the SAE Aerospace Council, described how Lufthansa performs Engine Condition Monitoring on 1,520 engines, using their own or OEM developed algorithms. He discussed the desire for reliable condition based maintenance (CBM) for aircraft systems which can affect operations to reduce unscheduled groundings and maintenance and increase aircraft availability. He also noted the need for partnership between the OEM and the operator in identifying and using data and trending.
Matsuura, ANA Chief Engineer and a member of the SAE Aerospace Council, described the evolution of aircraft monitoring capabilities and the value to the airline, and noted the increase in the number of aircraft systems able to provide diagnostic and prognostic information. He discussed the aspiration for full aircraft health management and the need for increased availability. ARP6461 should pave the way to use SHM as an alternative means of compliance and help enable CBM. In addition, SHM outputs may be a key factor in the evolution of future, more effi cient airframe designs.
The insights from all panelists were appreciated by the audience and will help drive forward SAE standardization activities in all aspects of aircraft systems and vehicle health management.

New recommended practice addresses quality and process improvement“SAE J2886, Design Review Based on Failure Modes (DRBFM),” developed by the SAE Automotive Quality and Process Improvement Committee, was published in March.
This Recommended Practice, the first standard addressing DRBFM, explains the process and its recommended steps. It includes examples of how to conduct the process and discusses how DRBFM can fit with activities such as product and process development, validation, production, and change management. DRBFM has been adopted by both automotive and non-automotive companies.
“There is a growing demand for DRBFM information due to the interest of companies from multiple industries and the expectation of the global supply base to utilize the process as well,” said Bill Haughey, Chairman of the J2886 DRBFM Task Force. “Companies tend to use slight variations of the process, which can cause complexity for suppliers that support multiple companies. Development of a recommended practice has been supported by users of DRBFM from both manufactures and suppliers.”
J2886 describes the basic principles and processes of DRBFM including planning, preparation, change point FMEA, design reviews, decisions based on actions completed, and feedback loops to other processes such as design and validation.
J2886 is intended for use by organizations whose product development processes currently use Failure Mode & Effects Analysis (FMEA) or DRBFM as a tool for assessing the potential risk and reliability of system elements (product or process) or as part of their product improvement processes. DRBFM is not intended to replace FMEA; however, companies interested in adopting DRBFM will benefit from the focus on specific change points and supporting engineering decisions based on detailed discussions.

The SAE Aerospace Standards Development program thanks these individuals for volunteering to lead these committees.
From the perspective of the operator, the result is having more planes in the air with a lot fewer unknowns on the ground (i.e., margin improvement and higher levels of customer satisfaction). It will not be acceptable for a plane to be delayed at the gate for a “cause unknown.” The situation will demand the unequivocal location of a faulty LRU (line replaceable unit), so it can be dealt with, getting the aircraft back on the runway. It will also require a movement from accurate diagnosis of a fault, with fault forwarding so that the aircraft can be repaired on the ground, to prognostics where the necessary repair is known for some time in advance, and maintenance booked when convenient.
The industry is in the midst of the dawn of a new technological paradigm in commercial aviation. In the next decade or so, the technology behind IVHM will be both an enabler of new processes and a disruption to old ones, with its value affecting safety, operations, and the financial aspects of the business.

The SAE A-21 Aircraft Noise Measurement and Aircraft Noise/Aviation Modeling Committee addresses all facets of aircraft noise measurement – processes, testing, modeling, and analysis. It is responsible for standards and engineering activities related to interior and exterior noise associated with aircraft and their environments. The group coordinates aircraft noise measurement efforts with a variety of organizations internationally, such as ICAO, AIRMOD, CAA, FAA, U.S. DOT, NASA, MIT, and U.S. and European rotorcraft forums.
The SAE E-33 In-Flight Propulsion Measurement Committee addresses all facets of in-flight thrust measurement and its uncertainty through the review of current industry methods and procedures, and determines whether the need for additional measures exists. The group is dedicated to creating, preparing, and maintaining all relevant specifications, standards and requirements for in-flight propulsion measurement.
If you are interested in participating in these or other SAE standards committees, visit http://www.sae.org/standardsdev/participateReq.htm, or contact Kerri Rohall at [email protected] or 1-724-772-7161.

Gain a competitive advantage. Impact your bottom line. Invest in standards.Standards. The workhorse documents that commonize practices, processes, and products throughout the aerospace industry are also paramount to the advancement of technology. Standards documents are more than the practices of today. They account for history and anticipate the future of technology, regulation, and business. The direct benefits of standards are simple in concept but extraordinary in their global impact toward ever-safer, cleaner, more efficient worldwide transportation.
Technical standards enable and enhance:• consistent and clear expectations for product performance and reliability• regulatory compliance• consistent product quality• compatibility and interoperability• more efficient procurement
Standardization also: • lowers trade barriers• lowers purchasing costs• decreases design time• promotes innovation• increases new technology speed to market
Because industry can rely on standards for globally harmonized solutions to common issues, individual companies can devote more time and resources to advance their proprietary technology. In this way, standards help foster competition, which advances the collective technology of industry and in turn, creates the need for new and revised standards. This has been the cycle for nearly a century of aerospace standards solutions.
And, at the heart of those solutions is SAE International, the world’s largest, most respected aerospace standards development organization (SDO). From design to build, operate, and maintain, SAE International works hand-in-hand with the global aerospace community to advance industry.
While participation in the standards development process helps the advancement of the industry it can also contribute to the advancement of your company and personal career.
Corporate Benefits• Input into the direction of the standards• Competitive intelligence through advance knowledge of standard direction• Advance warning of pending regulations and influence over the technical basis of the regulation• Product liability protections• Strong relationships with customers and suppliers• Association with the leading society for advancing mobility technology
Individual Benefits • Professional development from working contact with peers• Peer recognition for advancing your industry’s sectors technologies• Excellent networking and learning opportunities from product developers/users around the world• Discover emerging technologies• Contribute to the industry’s body of technical knowledge
To learn more about SAE Technical Standards Development—and for a schedule of TechnicalCommittee meetings—visit us on the web at www.sae.org/standardsdev
Become a better you. Volunteer for an SAE Standards Development Committee.
