This connectivity allows for the monitoring and analysis of large amount of sensor data from vehicles during their normal operations. In this paper, an approach is proposed for analyzing such data to determine a vehicle component\u2019s remaining useful life named time-to-failure (TTF). The collected data is first used to determine the type of performance degradation and then to train a regression model to predict the health condition and performance degradation rate of the component using a machine learning algorithm. When new data is collected later for the same component in a different system, the trained model can be used to estimate the time-to-failure of the component based on the predicted health condition and performance degradation rate. To validate the proposed approach, a quarter-car model is simulated, and a machine learning algorithm is applied to determine the time-to-failure of a failing shock absorber. The results show that a tap-delayed nonlinear autoregressive network with exogenous input (NARX) can accurately predict the health condition and degradation rate of the shock absorber and can estimate the component\u2019s time-to-failure. To the best of the authors\u2019 knowledge, this research is the first attempt to determine a component\u2019s time-to-failure using a machine learning algorithm.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1115\/1.4046818","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2020,4,1]],"date-time":"2020-04-01T16:28:13Z","timestamp":1585758493000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1115\/crossmarkpolicy-asme","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":5,"title":["Determination of Time-to-Failure for Automotive System Components Using Machine Learning"],"prefix":"10.1115","volume":"20","author":[{"given":"John","family":"O\u2019Donnell","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Mechanical Engineering, College of Engineering, The University of Alabama, Box 870276, Tuscaloosa, AL 35487-0276"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Hwan-Sik","family":"Yoon","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Mechanical Engineering, College of Engineering, The University of Alabama, Box 870276, Tuscaloosa, AL 35487-0276"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"33","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2020,5,26]]},"reference":[{"issue":"4","key":"2020071611253269500_CIT0001","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"289","DOI":"10.1109\/JIOT.2014.2327587","article-title":"Connected Vehicles: Solutions and Challenges","volume":"1","author":"Lu","year":"2014","journal-title":"IEEE Internet Things J."},{"key":"2020071611253269500_CIT0002","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"143","DOI":"10.1016\/j.trc.2016.07.007","article-title":"Influence of Connected and Autonomous Vehicles on Traffic Flow Stability and Throughput","volume":"71","author":"Talebpour","year":"2016","journal-title":"Transp.
