Applied System Innovation, Volume 9, Issue 6

2026 June - 26 articles

Cover Story: PdMDT, Predictive Maintenance Digital Twin, is an innovative cyber–physical tech reshaping industrial maintenance. Though popular, it lacks full infrastructure for phased development. Tools like RA, functional requirements, and MBSE aid structured design but fail stage-wise PdMDT construction. Key gaps persist: the conflation of PdMDT and PdM, a lack of a standardized PdMDT definition, inconsistent naming, unexpandable partial deployments. This paper systematically reviews the IEEE, Scopus, and Web of Science literature, with comparative PdM/PdMDT analysis to identify research deficits. Its core output is a nine-stage PdMDT lifecycle framework delivering unified terms, clarified deployments, and a formal PdMDT definition to enable full-scale industrial rollout. View this paper
