Carl Byington at The PHM Society



“Professional Engineer Carl Byington became president and chief officer of PHM Design, LLC after working as a principal investigator at Sikorsky Aircraft. Carl Byington has made many contributions to the engineering industry as part of the American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), SAE International (formerly the Society of Automotive Engineers), Machinery Failure Prevention Technology (MFPT), and more significantly the Prognostics and Health Management Society (PHM Society). Carl Byington served numerous roles in the PHM Society over the last decade including Tutorials Development, Technical Program Chair, General Conference Chair for multiple years, and on the Board of Directors.

The PHM Society is a non-profit organization dedicated to the advancement of PHM as an engineering discipline using a unique approach. As provided on their website, the PHM Society is founded on three basic principles:

To provide free and unrestricted access to PHM knowledge;
To promote interdisciplinary and international collaboration in PHM;
To lead the advancement of PHM as an engineering discipline.
In order to accomplish these principles, the Society has adopted a Creative Commons license policy that allows authors to retain copyright while allowing the Society to distribute their work broadly through modern media. This solution provides timely and free dissemination of research results, articles, opinions, news, and notices pertaining to PHM research and applications.

The flagship publication of the PHM Society is an open online journal entitled the International Journal of Prognostics and Health Management (IJPHM). The Journal has established a fast-paced, yet rigorous peer-review policy, which provides scientific journal-level quality to the publication. The Journal publishes online and at a cadence much faster (and environmentally friendly) than what is achieved with traditional printed journals.

The PHM Society accomplishes its interdisciplinary collaboration through its Annual Conference, typically in held various locations in the USA, Europe, and in some years the Asia-Pacific region. In this time of Covid-19 concerns though, the Society is evaluating virtual and better socially distanced ways of achieving its interactive mission.

While this situation will likely continue to be a challenge for all-conference organizing societies, the PHM Society web site still provides industry-leading capabilities for community collaboration through forums, wikis, blogs, and other Web 2.0 capabilities. This website is accessible to its entire user base without restrictions, fees, or membership requirements.”
