Though a lot of work is currently being conducted to develop PHM systems for fuel cells, various challenges have been encountered including the self-healing effect after characterization as well as accelerated degradation due to dynamic loading, all which make RUL predictions a difficult task. In this study, a prognostic approach based on adaptive particle filter algorithm is proposed. The novelty of the proposed method lies in the introduction of a self-healing factor after each characterization and the adaption of the degradation model parameters to fit to the changing degradation trend. An ensemble of five different state models based on weighted mean is then developed. The results show that the method is effective in estimating the remaining useful life of PEM fuel cells, with majority of the predictions falling within 5\\% error. The method was employed in the IEEE 2014 PHM Data Challenge and led to our team emerging the winner of the RUL category of the challenge.","lang":"eng"}],"status":"public","_id":"9879","user_id":"55222","department":[{"_id":"151"}],"keyword":["ageing","particle filtering (numerical methods)","proton exchange membrane fuel cells","remaining life assessment","PEM fuel cell prognostics","PHM","RUL predictions","accelerated degradation","adaptive particle filter algorithm","dynamic loading","model parameter adaptation","prognostics and health management","proton exchange membrane fuel cells","remaining useful life estimation","self-healing effect","Adaptation models","Data models","Degradation","Estimation","Fuel cells","Mathematical model","Prognostics and health management"],"language":[{"iso":"eng"}],"year":"2014","citation":{"ama":"Kimotho JK, Meyer T, Sextro W.

The approach utilizes mutation analysis as the quality metric to steer an automated simulation data generation process. It leads to a simulation flow with two phases towards an enhanced mutation analysis result. First in a random simulation phase, an in-loop heuristics is deployed and adjusts dynamically the test probability distribution so as to improve the coverage efficiency. Next, for each remaining hard-to-kill mutant, a search heuristics on test input space is developed to iteratively locate a target test, using a specific objective cost function for the goal of killing HDL mutant.

In this work, we try to solve the problem of automatic simulation data generation targeting HDL mutation faults. We follow a search based approach and eliminate the need for symbolic execution and mathematical constraint solving from existing work. An objective cost function is defined on the test input space and serves the guidance of search for fault-detecting test data. This is done by first mapping the simulation traces under a test onto a control and data flow graph structure which is extracted from the design. Then the progress of fault detection can be measured quantitatively on this graph to be the cost value. By minimizing this cost we approach the target test data. The effectiveness of the cost function is investigated under an example neighborhood search scheme. Case study with a floating point arithmetic IP design has shown that the cost function is able to guide effectively the search procedure towards a fault-detecting test. The cost calculation time as the search overhead was also observed to be minor compared to the actual design simulation time."}],"type":"conference","publication":"Proceedings of Euromicro DSD 2011"},{"date_created":"2023-01-24T08:43:21Z","author":[{"full_name":"Groppe, Jinghua","last_name":"Groppe","first_name":"Jinghua"},{"first_name":"Wolfgang","last_name":"Müller","id":"16243","full_name":"Müller, Wolfgang"}],"publisher":"IEEE","date_updated":"2023-01-24T08:43:27Z","doi":"10.1109/DEXA.2005.156","conference":{"location":"Copenhagen, Denmark ","name":"16th International Workshop on Database and Expert Systems Applications (DEXA'05)"},"title":"Profile Management technology for Smart Customization in Private Home Applications","publication_identifier":{"isbn":["0-7695-2424-9"]},"citation":{"apa":"Groppe, J., &#38; Müller, W.
