Unsupervised condition change detection in large diesel engines

On-line Condition Monitoring and Remote Fault Diagnosis for Marine Diesel Engines Using Tribological Information

Literature review indicates that a large amount of failures are caused by abnormal wear of the diesel engine components. It is therefore essential to monitor the engine condition using the tribological information. Although the wear debris analysis has been proven to be effective for condition monitoring and fault diagnosis (CMFD) of diesel engines, limited work has been done to address the rem...

Model-Based Condition and State Monitoring of Large Marine Diesel Engines

Detection of Fuel Adulteration in Real Time Using Optical Fiber Sensor and Peripheral Interface Controller

Detection of fuel adulteration in real time is the most important need of the world as it generates the hazardous effects on the environment, living and nonliving things. Various automotive users and fuel providers may mix kerosene in petrol and diesel. Adulterated fuel increases air pollution, as well as reduces the performance of vehicle engines. Such a malpractice in fuel is prevailing becau...

A methodology for cracks identification in large crankshafts

Diesel engines used in power plants and marine propulsion are especially sensitive to outage events. Any advance in the early detection of failure will increase the reliability of the electricity supply and improve its productivity by reducing costly power outages. Fault detection and diagnosis is important technology in condition-based maintenance for diesel engines. This article presents a cl...

Combining of Magnitude and Direction of Change Indices to Unsupervised Change Detection in Multitemporal Multispectral Remote Sensing Images

In remote sensing, image-based change detection techniques, analyze two images acquired over the same area at different times t1 and t2 to identify the changes occurred on the Earth's surface. Change detection approaches are mainly categorized as supervised and unsupervised. Generating the change index is a key step for change detection in multi-temporal remote sensing images. Unsupervised chan...
