Abstract

Constructing a simulable model of a production line is crucial to ensure adequate maintenance, but it is nonetheless too complex due to the presence of highly heterogeneous components. In this perspective, Verilog-AMS is a promising solution, as it allows to cover different levels of details, from transistor-level and digital components to multi-physical dynamics. This paper shows how Verilog-AMS can be used to model production line components by exploiting multiple disciplines effectively. Furthermore, we will prove that Verilog-AMS allows efficient modeling of faults by inserting saboteurs and mutants in multi-physics descriptions. This methodology allows the definition of a multi-discipline fault injection technique that can be used to generate valuable data to support any analysis based on faulty temporal series, like predictive maintenance.
