Abstract :
Prognostics and Health Management (PHM) attracts more and more attention. The PHM behavior of equipment could be classified into two major parts: Automated part and Human-in-Loop part, the challenge is to construct the Multi-Agent model for the Automated part. Firstly, the critical activities of maintenance process are described with several self-governed agents. Then, the mechanism of communication and interaction among the multiple agents is discussed. Thirdly, the Multi-Agent model for equipment PHM system is put forward. Finally, the task of Mission Planned Agent, Maintenance Decision-making Agent, Resources Management Agent and Learning Agent are analyzed.
