MuAMO: an Intelligent Maintenance Optimization Framework for Safety-Critical Systems
TS-073254 —
Industries operating safety‑critical and asset‑intensive systems struggle to leverage the full value of disparate maintenance data sources. Current maintenance management and optimization tools operate in silos, limiting real‑time decision‑making, automation, and scalability. No existing s…

Model-Based, Multi-Criteria Optimization for Sensor Placement and Selection
TS-073138 —
Designing online monitoring (OLM) for safety‑critical systems is constrained by scarce early‑stage operational data and by quantitative models that are slow to build, brittle across configurations, and costly to iterate. This creates expensive sensor networks with blind spots, poor diagnosabil…

BLIPS: Deductive Early‑Stage Failure Analysis for Complex Systems
TS-072984 —
Complex systems are entering the market faster while safety verification grows harder, especially when detailed designs or operational data don’t yet exist. Traditional tools (FMEA, FTA, PRA) either require finalized designs, focus on forward propagation, or struggle with partial failures and fu…

Propagation-Based Fault Detection and Sensor Optimization for Complex Industrial Systems
TS-072175 — The Need
Modern industrial and energy systems are increasingly complex, making timely fault detection and discrimination critical for safety, reliability, and cost control. Existing fault diagnosis methods often struggle with transient states, require extensive historical data, or lack interpretabil…
