Prediction of further Operation based on vehicle Tribo data

The paper deals with application of selected analytical methods for analysing field data from heavy off-road military vehicles. The information from the engine oil are interpreted in form of polluting particles like particles from wear process (e.g. Fe, Pb, Cu, etc.) and particles from oil deterioration itself (like Mn, Si, Zn, etc.). These pieces of information have good technical and analytical potential which has not been explored well yet. There is available reasonable set of vehicles and their oil data from in-field-operation. Based on the data we assume it will be possible to determine some changes in the system. This may help to change e.g. the system maintenance policy, may estimate system operation and help in mission planning.
