A method for creating and using a fault model representative of a system, the fault model comprising one or more fault model components is provided. The method creates a reusable fault model component; associates one or more algorithms to the reusable fault model component, the one or more algorithms describing behavior of the reusable fault model component; incorporates the reusable fault model component and the one or more algorithms into the fault model; tunes the reusable fault model component, using available data associated with the fault model; and predicts occurrence of degradation of the system, based on the tuning.

Methods and apparatus for the creation and use of reusable fault model components in fault modeling and complex system prognostics

An embodiment of a method for generating a binary file includes receiving information defining an entity that forms a portion of loadable diagnostics information, generating metadata defining a location within a binary file where the entity is to be located, and generating the binary file to include the metadata and the entity stored at the location. Additional embodiments include an aircraft diagnostic system and a method for the diagnostics system to access information within a binary file. The diagnostics system includes data storage and an accessor module. The data storage is configured to store the binary file, which includes metadata and an entity stored at a location within the binary file, where the metadata defines the location of the entity. The accessor module is configured to evaluate the metadata to make a determination of the location, and to access the entity within the binary file based on the determination.
