A Som-based Tool for Process State Monitoring and Optimization
نویسندگان
چکیده
Self-organizing maps (SOM) have been successfully applied in many fields of research. In this paper, we demonstrate the use of a neural-network-based tool for a data analysis in fluidized bed energy plants. The software is based on selforganizing maps. Reference vectors of SOMs can be classified by K-means algorithm into clusters, which represented different states of processes. The differences between reference vectors could further be used for determination of reasons of non-optimal process states. The results show that this method can also be successfully applied to process state monitoring and optimisation in fluidized bed energy plants.

Availability analysis of mechanical systems with condition-based maintenance using semi-Markov and evaluation of optimal condition monitoring interval
Maintenance helps to extend equipment life by improving its condition and avoiding catastrophic failures. Appropriate model or mechanism is, thus, needed to quantify system availability vis-a-vis a given maintenance strategy, which will assist in decision-making for optimal utilization of maintenance resources. This paper deals with semi-Markov process (SMP) modeling for steady state availabili...

متن کاملSIMULATION AND MONITORING OF THE MACHINING PROCESS VIA FUZZY LOGIC AND CUTTING FORCES
On time replacement of a cutting tool with a new one is an important task in Flexible Manufacturing Systems (FMS). A fuzzy logic-based approach was used in the present study to predict and simulate the tool wear progress in turning operation. Cutting parameters and cutting forces were considered as the input and the wear rate was regarded as the output data in the fuzzy logic for construct...
