Provided are embodiments for method and system for performing an integrated ice protection with prognostics and health management using fiber optic sensors. Embodiments can include reading a signal from each sensor of an array of sensors installed on a surface of a structure or equipment, wherein each sensor is a fiber optic sensor, and generating a map based on reading the signal from each sensor, wherein the map monitors a condition of the surface detected by each sensor. Embodiments can also include determining at least one of an abnormal condition or a failure based at least in part on reading the signal from each sensor; and performing at least one of adjusting power control for the structure or equipment or communicating the abnormal condition or failure of the structure or equipment.

A vacuum heat insulating container that can be easily subjected to inspection work is provided. A vacuum heat insulating container (1) includes: a container main body (100) including an opening (40a) and an accommodating space (40b); and a lid body (101). The container main body (100) includes a heat insulating container body (40) including: a first outer covering member (41) which is a molded body made of a nonmetal material and has a gas barrier property and a double wall structure; a first core member (42); and a pressure sensor (43). The lid body (101) includes: a heat insulating lid body (50) including a second outer covering member (51) having a sack shape formed by a flexible film which includes a metal layer and has a gas barrier property and a second core member (52); and a window (61) by which a surface of the second outer covering member (51) is visually confirmable.
