Funds are provided for a a small computing system optimized for                 artificial intelligence applications that will be used in research on           failure analysis of mechanical components.  The aim is an extensible            'expert system' that can diagnose the causes of failure (of bolts,              bearings, and similar components) and recommend corrective action.  The         system's knowledge base will contain knowledge from human                       diagnosticians as well as physical principles, and the system                   eventually  will have links to external analysis packages (e.g. for             finite-element analysis).  A small proof-of-concept system has been             programmed in FORTRAN and works well over a small domain.  The new              equipment will provide a host for a much more ambitious systems                 programmed in LISP that will be large enough to attack realistic                problems over reasonable domains.
