2. Prognosis and estimation of time to failure (RUL)
2.1 What? prognosis – definition and measurements
Many definitions of the term prognosis have been proposed, and there is no totally consensual one. However, one salient feature can be identified: prognosis is often equated with a predictive process (a future situation must be apprehended). Depending on the case, it refers to a process aimed at determining the remaining lifetime of a system, i.e. its DEFAD (duration of operation before failure), or the probability that the system will operate...
