IVHM
Integrated Vehicle Health Management
IVHM – Integrated Vehicle Health Management encompasses all of the capabilities that allow for the improved management of the health of a vehicle, such as an aircraft or space vehicle, to be achieved. IVHM capabilities include operational data, structural health monitoring (SHM – see ‘What the Hec?!’, October 2010), prognostics (PHM – see ‘What the Hec?!’, November 2015) and condition monitoring (CM – see ‘What the Hec?!’, October 2011).
IVHM is used to improve safety and reliability by ensuring cost-effective operation without unexpected failures. It has two parts: the equipment and sensors for the collection of data and the use of the data to plan operations and maintenance.
