Seal wear in hydraulic cylinders results in fluid leakage, and instability of the piston rod movement. Therefore, regular inspection of seals is required using automated approaches to improve productivity and to reduce ...

With the increased penetration of fluctuating renewables and growing population of contemporary loads such as electric vehicles, the uncertainties in the generation and demand in the electric power grids are increasing. ...

In this paper, we estimate the age-related performance degradation of a wind turbine working under Norwegian environment, based on a deep neural network model. Ten years of high-resolution operational data from a 2 MW wind ...

Local demagnetization is an irreparable failure mode in permanent magnet synchronous motors (PMSMs), resulting in reduced motor efficiency and high cogging torque. These effects are particularly disadvantageous to ...

Gearboxes are critical equipment in the vessel propulsion system. Lubrication contamination caused by water ingress or condensation is one of the major failure modes in marine gearboxes leading to accelerated aging of ...
