The discipline that connects prognostics and system lifecycle management is often referred to as prognostics and health management (PHM). Though prognostics is one of the main parts of PHM, it is the least mature. This paper is based on the past work of data driven prognostics applied in the field of power electronics modules and primarily concerned with the data driven prognostics methods that take advantage of measured characteristics of individual systems or components in order to predict the remaining useful life (RUL).

This paper presents the development of LC sensor comprised of a movable inductor and a fixed inductor-capacitor resonant circuit, thereby causing the sensor resonant frequency to be displacement dependent. The sensor has been fabricated in PCB (Printed Circuit Board) technology and experimentally characterized. Experimentally obtained results are compared with an electrical model. Good agreement between measured results and parameters estimated by analytical calculations are obtained.

The paper presented is dedicated to developing an underground train tilting control system acting over the secondary suspension while negotiating curves. The goal is to improve the ride quality while passing curves at relatively high speeds. The system changes the parameters of the secondary suspension depending on the lateral acceleration of the wagon body, running speed and bogie rotation, all measured by means of sensors.

Investigation deals with problems of computer-aided design of wide-band antireflection (AR) coatings for semiconductor photosensitive devices (discrete photo receivers, CCD-cameras, modern security systems and others) for spectral region 0.9 μm - 1.7 μm. In practice during deposition of multilayer coatings some deviations of desired coatings' thicknesses always occurs which worsens antireflection properties of the coatings. It is important to know how the phase thickness deviations influence on transmission spectrum of the system: substrate - AR coating. As a result of the analysis it is shown that six-layer structure possesses the lowest reflection and high stability when phase thickness deviations' occurs.

This paper presents a research focused on development of low-cost manufacturing process which enables fabrication of accurate organic humidity sensors, where only screen printing is used for all layers deposition. It means that not only the interdigital structures with 50 μm line and space, but also phatolocynine sensing film and protective polymer layer are screen printed. The interdigital structures are printed by advanced screen printing in order to replace complex an expensive vacuum processes. In the frame of this research a novel screen printing technique for deposition of low viscose organic sensing film was also developed, where non-standard precise stainless steel Beta mesh was used for screens.

The main idea behind of this paper is aimed to improve PM (Project Management) in the field of product design, concretely in the branch of packaging with employing a Model Based (in other words Model Driven) approach. We propose a modern and innovative project management framework covering entire life cycle of manufacturing project. This original approach, a novelty of the Authors, contributes to more efficient project management of manufacturing process. It also increases quality, reliability and testing-capability of particular project process. Further, the Authors describe selected software and methodical tools suitable for the support of the process. Finally, a brief description of Model Based Project Management Framework (MBPMF) is set and some future directions of further research are indicated.

This paper compares chromatic white light (CWL) and interference microscope measurements aiming to find a proper non-contact method for a thickness determination of thin soft organic films. Standard samples with vacuum deposited aluminum films of different thicknesses in the range of 50-1000 nm were prepared and measured by both methods. It was found that the CWL technique is proper for a measurement of thin soft organic films with higher than 40-50 nm film thicknesses. As a complementary feature of the method 2D and 3D surface morphology imaging of the films could be recorded and the surface film roughness could be calculated. In a case of optical inhomogeneity the method requires covering with a uniform high reflective coating. The interference microscopy method results in a relatively lower film thickness with a higher standard deviation and a higher standard relative error. It could be connected with the resolution of the interferograms measured.
