dc.description.abstract | Improvements in the aviation technologies have made the aircrafts more
reliable, more capable in terms of operational necessities and as a result more
technological. Today, Turkish Army Aviation units possess helicopters that are
equipped with the technologically up-to-date equipments. Those new generation
helicopters brought their advantages in terms of performance, speed, and reliability
as well as the disadvantages in terms of maintenance load, expensive parts and
required deep system knowledge. At this point, there is a trade off that takes place
between the development and the system integration and maintenance necessities of
these ultimate equipments. Helicopter systems turn out to be more interactive. Those developments make it easier to fly for the user pilots, but more difficult to perform
the maintenance necessities for the maintenance personnel.
New maintenance necessities of the developed equipments and interactive
systems make it more difficult to keep the helicopter fleets flying and operational.
Furthermore this situation increases the need for the domain experts. Number of
unexpected failures and the required time for fault isolation are increasing by the
acquisitions of developed helicopters.
Acquired experience is an important reference for the maintenance personnel
in solving the problems as well as the technical documents of the helicopters. In this
study, a decision support system in rule-based reasoning is formed in order to help
AS-532 COUGAR helicopters’ maintenance personnel. Extraordinary failures, their
possible causes, warning to users and recommended solution procedures are
presented in the design of “case”. Users can reach to these cases by following the
failure related attribute-value pairs. With the help of this decision support system, it
will be possible to share the expertise of the COUGAR experts with the
inexperienced personnel. As a result, the percentage of true “fault identification” will
increase and required time for fault isolation will decrease. This expertise can also be
used in training procedures. | en_US |
