An approach to articulating expert system rule basesA rule-base generation procedure is developed for expert systems used to diagnose anomalies in the performance of mechanical plants and similar engineering systems. The method is based on construction of a failure-mode information-propagation model (FIPM). Details of the FIPM procedure are discussed and illustrated with diagrams; reference is made to a sample application involving the turbopump of the high-pressure oxidizer for the Space Shuttle main engine.
