- Advanced Methodologies Applied in a Dynamic Maintenance ContextPublication . Lampreia, S.; Lobo, Victor; Vairinhos, V.Maintaining military systems in a dynamic context presents unique challenges that require advanced methodologies to ensure the operational readiness and effectiveness of the Armed Forces. This article analyses and discusses advanced methodologies applied in the maintenance of military technology, highlighting their contributions to the optimization of the maintenance process in constantly evolving operational environments. Initially, we address the importance of predictive maintenance, which uses techniques such as real-time data analysis, condition monitoring and machine learning algorithms to predict failures and proactively schedule maintenance interventions. This approach minimizes downtime, and costs associated with corrective maintenance, significantly increasing the availability of military systems. Additionally, we explore the application of emerging technologies, databases and the use of smart sensors integrated into military equipment. These technologies enable the continuous collection of performance and condition data, enabling a more comprehensive understanding of the state of each component and system. This not only facilitates early detection of anomalies, but also supports data driven decision making, resulting in more efficient and accurate maintenance. The use of condition-based maintenance approaches is also discussed in this article. These methodologies consider not only the age or time of use of the equipment, but also its actual state of operation. By continuously monitoring operating conditions, it is possible to extend the life of systs, reduce unnecessary wear and tear, and plan maintenance interventions more effectively. Finally, we highlight the importance of integrating computer-aided maintenance management systems and decision support systems. The combination of these tools provides a comprehensive environment for planning, executing and analysing maintenance activities, enabling more efficient resource management and a more agile response to operational demands. In short, this article demonstrates how the adoption of advanced methodologies in the maintenance of military technology is fundamental to ensuring the operational readiness and effectiveness of the Armed Forces in a dynamic and constantly evolving context.
