Remaining life prediction for individual components from sparse data

Predicting the remaining life of individual aircraft, fleets of aircraft, aircraft components and subpopulations of these components. This is accomplished through the use of precomputed databases of response that are generated from a model for the nonlinear system behavior prior to the time that decisions need to be made concerning the disposition of the system. The database is calibrated with a few data points, to account for unmodeled system variables, and then used with an input variable to predict future system behavior. These methods also permit identification of the root causes for observed system behavior. The use of the response databases also permits rapid estimations of uncertainty estimates for the system behavior, such as remaining life estimates, particularly, when subsets of an input variable distribution are passed through the database and scaled appropriately to construct the output distribution. A specific example is the prediction of remaining life for an aircraft component where the model calculates damage evolution, input variables are a crack size and the number of cycles, and the predicted parameters are the actual stress on the component and the remaining life.

SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR WiFi POSITIONING

An aspect of the invention provides instantaneous Wi-Fi positioning that is robust to outliar APs using a recursive centroid method. It estimates user position and uncertainty based on the current list of scanned APs. Another aspect of the invention provides a Wi-Fi navigation solution that estimates good Wi-Fi positions even in the areas of low AP density and further improves robustness to outliar APs. Wi-Fi navigation solution improves the estimate of instantaneous Wi-Fi positioning by using a 4-state Kalman filter, which models user dynamics. As a result, the uncertainty estimate of the Wi-Fi positions is accurately estimated, thereby, making it suitable for blending with GNSS.

Uncertainty estimation of subsurface resistivity solutions

Method for estimating uncertainty in a physical property model generated by inverting measured geophysical data, for example a resistivity model inferred from electromagnetic field data. The method involves as few as one data inversion (32) coupled with a number of forward simulations (37). Alternative solutions (models) are generated (39) by probing a perturbation space (35) defined from a reduced model space (34), resulting from a principal component decomposition (33) of the inverted model, and selecting some of the larger components. Statistical analysis techniques may be applied (to those alternative solutions remaining after thresholding) to generate quantitative uncertainty estimates (42) applicable to the inverted model (32).
