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"}],"author":[{"last_name":"Kimotho","full_name":"Kimotho, James Kuria ","first_name":"James Kuria "},{"first_name":"Tobias","full_name":"Meyer, Tobias","last_name":"Meyer"},{"full_name":"Sextro, Walter","last_name":"Sextro","id":"21220","first_name":"Walter"}],"status":"public","year":"2014","page":"1-6","publication":"Prognostics and Health Management (PHM), 2014 IEEE Conference on","type":"conference","date_updated":"2019-05-20T13:12:27Z","doi":"10.1109/ICPHM.2014.7036406","language":[{"iso":"eng"}]}
