description Knowing the importance of assuring their reliability and availability, prognosis and remaining useful life calculation (RUL) concepts are highly suggested to be applied in critical applications such as hybrid electric vehicles (HEV). In the electrical propulsion system of HEVs, the electrical machine is one of the most critical elements considering its cost and function. Most electrical machines used in HEVs are permanent magnet machines (PMM). Most severe faults in PMM that affect its normal operation are the result of demagnetization. However, applying prognosis to a real prototype to detect the presence of mechanical defects such as cracks in the magnet of PMM and calculating the RUL of this defective element are challenging. In this paper, we are going to take advantage of a finite element model already built for the PMM in the healthy state and the state where cracks of different depths are integrated into the magnet. After that, relevant vital parameters that are affected when this type of fault persists in the machine are collected. Then, prognosis is applied to detect the presence of the crack in one piece of magnet in the electrical machine. Following this, the RUL calculation is performed to predict the remaining time before the crack propagates and a total fracture occurs in the magnet. The method used to execute the prognosis is the hidden Markov model (HMM). The RUL calculation will be performed using Paris equation, being the most important equation that models the growth and propagation of cracks
