IEEE Transactions on Reliability:  Special Issue on Prognostics and Health Management (PHM)

Following the success of the IEEE PHM-2008 Conference in Denver and the IEEE PHM-2010 Conference in Macau, over 350 papers on PHM technologies, methods, and applications are available in the IEEE Xplore (http://ieeexplore.ieee.org/Xplore/guesthome.jsp).  Furthermore, the selected best papers from these conferences were expanded and enhanced for special issues in the IEEE Transactions on Reliability.  Great thanks goes to Professor Michael Pecht and his associates, Dr. Ile Dolev and Dr. Wenbin Wang, for their efforts in putting these special sections together. 

The June 2009 and March 2011 issues of the IEEE Transactions on Reliability contain the PHM special sections.  Note:  In addition, there is a planned PHM article section to be added within the Reliability Society Newsletter.

With the PHM-2011 Conference in Shenzhen, China (May 24-25, 2011, http://www.cityu.edu.hk/phmc/PHM2011.htm) and the PHM-2011 Conference in Denver (June 20-23, 2011, http://www.phmconf.org/), we will be publishing our annual special section on PHM in the IEEE Transaction on Reliability.  We again expect over 350 papers for the IEEE PHM-2011 Conferences with the very best being selected to be expanded and enhanced for the special PHM section in a 2012 IEEE Transaction on Reliability.
