The special issue (SI) Numerical Modeling in Technical Diagnostics and Predictive Maintenance is aimed at recent advances in computational approaches applied to engineering systems with a focus on reliability, safety, and efficiency. Numerical modeling has become an essential tool in technical diagnostics, enabling engineers and researchers to simulate degradation processes, identify potential failures, and assess structural integrity under various operational conditions. In predictive maintenance, modeling techniques ranging from finite element analysis and signal processing to artificial intelligence and digital twins support proactive strategies for minimizing failures, extending equipment life cycles, and optimizing maintenance schedules.
This SI welcomes contributions that bridge theory and practice, covering applications in mechanical, civil, electrical, and materials engineering. Emphasis is placed on integrating data-driven approaches with physics-based models, which provides robust diagnostic frameworks and enhances decision-making processes. The SI aims to foster interdisciplinary exchange between researchers, practitioners, and industry stakeholders interested in computational modeling for condition monitoring and maintenance planning, combining advanced simulation techniques with predictive analytics, shaping the future of engineering diagnostics and sustainable asset management.
