Augmented Reverse Engineering: A Holistic Approach for the Resilience of Complex Systems in the Face of Obsolescence

Year: 2025

Type: article

Abstract: Faced with the obsolescence of complex systems, ABMI offers an ”Augmented Reverse Engineering” approach, also known as ”Despecialization”. This innovative approach goes beyond traditional functional and dimensional specifications by incorporating materials, tools, treatments, manufacturing and maintenance processes, as well as applicable standards, regulations, and patents. This holistic method provides a comprehensive modeling of systems, taking into account environmental, technological, and regulatory constraints. By improving the understanding of components and processes, it extends the lifespan of systems and enhances their resilience to failures. A case study illustrates the effectiveness of this groundbreaking solution.
