The operation and maintenance of buildings has seen several advances in recent years. Multiple information and communication technology (ICT) solutions have been introduced to better manage building maintenance. However, maintenance practices in buildings remain less efficient and lead to significant energy waste. In this paper, a predictive maintenance framework based on machine learning techniques is proposed. This framework aims to provide guidelines to implement predictive maintenance for building installations. The framework is organised into five steps: data collection, data processing, model development, fault notification and model improvement. A sport facility was selected as a case study in this work to demonstrate the framework. Data were collected from different heating ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) installations using Internet of Things (IoT) devices and a building automation system (BAS). Then, a deep learning model was used to predict failures. The case study showed the potential of this framework to predict failures. However, multiple obstacles and barriers were observed related to data availability and feedback collection. The overall results of this paper can help to provide guidelines for scientists and practitioners to implement predictive maintenance approaches in buildings.

In recent years, the demands of Maintenance, Repair and Overhaul (MRO) customers to provide resource-efficient after market services have grown increasingly. One way to meet these requirements is by making use of predictive maintenance methods. These are ideas that involve the derivation of workscoping guidance by assessing and processing previously unused or undocumented service data. In this context a novel approach on predictive maintenance is presented in form of a performance-based classification method for high pressure compressor (HPC) airfoils. The procedure features machine learning algorithms that establish a relation between the airfoil geometry and the associated aerodynamic behavior and is hereby able to divide individual operating characteristics into a finite number of distinct aero-classes. By this means the introduced method not only provides a fast and simple way to assess piece part performance through geometrical data, but also facilitates the consideration of stage matching (axial as well as circumferential) in a simplified manner. It thus serves as prerequisite for an improved customary HPC performance workscope as well as for an automated optimization process for compressor buildup with used or repaired material that would be applicable in an MRO environment. The methods of machine learning that are used in the present work enable the formation of distinct groups of similar aero-performance by unsupervised (step 1) and supervised learning (step 2). The application of the overall classification procedure is shown exemplary on an artificially generated dataset based on real characteristics of a front and a rear rotor of a 10-stage axial compressor that contains both geometry as well as aerodynamic information. In step 1 of the investigation only the aerodynamic quantities in terms of multivariate functional data are used in order to benchmark different clustering algorithms and generate a foundation for a geometry-based aero-classification. Corresponding classifiers are created in step 2 by means of both, the k Nearest Neighbor and the linear Support Vector Machine algorithms. The methods’ fidelities are brought to the test with the attempt to recover the aero-based similarity classes solely by using normalized and reduced geometry data. This results in high classification probabilities of up to 96 % which is proven by using stratified k-fold cross-validation.

The consequences of failures and unscheduled maintenance are the reasons why engineers have been trying to increase the reliability of industrial equipment for years. In modern solutions, predictive maintenance is a frequently used method. It allows to forecast failures and alert about their possibility. This paper presents a summary of the machine learning algorithms that can be used in predictive maintenance and comparison of their performance. The analysis was made on the basis of data set from Microsoft Azure AI Gallery. The paper presents a comprehensive approach to the issue including feature engineering, preprocessing, dimensionality reduction techniques, as well as tuning of model parameters in order to obtain the highest possible performance. The conducted research allowed to conclude that in the analysed case , the best algorithm achieved 99.92% accuracy out of over 122 thousand test data records. In conclusion, predictive maintenance based on machine learning represents the future of machine reliability in industry.

Dieser Beitrag beschreibt eine Herangehensweise für eine Predictive Maintenance-Lösung, bei der die Bauteilabnutzung technischer Systeme mithilfe eines Sensorik-Toolkits erfasst und mittels eines Prognosetools überwacht wird. Die Sensorik als auch das Prognosetool müssen flexibel ausgelegt sein, damit sie zielführend an unterschiedlichen technischen Systemen einsetzbar sind. Die Zustandsbestimmung der Bauteile erfolgt dabei nicht kontinuierlich, sondern basierend auf zeitdiskreten Messungen. Anhand der aufgenommenen Daten wird über ein Prognosemodell die wahrscheinliche Restnutzungsdauer der Bauteile prognostiziert. Für die Erstellung der Prognose dient ein Machine Learning Tool, welches mit historischen Abnutzungsverläufen trainiert wird. Die Trainingsdaten werden durch statistische Versuche erfasst, in denen die Einflussgrößen und charakteristische Verläufe verschiedener Abnutzungsarten identifiziert werden. Als Grundlage für diesen Beitrag dienen Untersuchungen an einem Rolltor, die im Rahmen des „LongLife“ Projekts durchgeführt wurden, das vom Bundesministerium für Bildung und Forschung gefördert wird. Das Forschungsvorhaben ist der Fördermaßnahme „Ressourceneffiziente Kreislaufwirtschaft – Innovative Produktkreisläufe“ (ReziProK) zugeordnet und hat eine Laufzeit von 36 Monaten.
