Abstract

Long-duration logistical wargames within the Air domain are complex and highly dynamic events that are driven by aircraft availability. In order to gain insight into the impact of aircraft use, this research developed a simulation tool that uses a stepwise approach for adjudication and provides the user many capabilities including, but not limited to, the ability to have multiple bases and types of aircraft. Daily aircraft availability and missions accomplished are two critical metrics of interest. Within the simulation, the user has the ability to control types of part failures, control parts availability, control maintenance capabilities, and control number of mission scheduled. Finally, the user can account for the possibility of attrition along with the effects of numerous major events present in real-life scenarios. This tool is validated through application of a space covering design along with regression modeling and shows that the tool is well-behaved, functions as expected, and can quickly provide meaningful insights into operational scenarios.

飞机使用和可用维修备件对飞机出动次数的影响:一种长时间后勤战推演模拟工具

空域内的长时间后勤演习是由飞机可用性驱动的复杂且高度动态的事件。为了深入了解飞机使用的影响，本研究开发了一种模拟工具，该工具使用逐步的方法进行裁决，并为用户提供许多功能，包括但不限于拥有多个基地和飞机类型的能力。每日可用的飞机和完成的任务是两个重要的指标。在仿真中，用户能够控制部件故障的类型、控制部件的可用性、控制维护能力和控制计划任务的数量。最后，用户可以考虑在现实生活场景中出现的许多重大事件的影响下可能出现的损耗。该工具通过空间覆盖设计和回归建模的应用程序进行验证，并显示该工具表现良好，功能符合预期，并且可以快速提供对操作场景的有意义的见解。

期刊介绍： Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance. Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
