The rapid expansion of wind farms has drawn attention to operations and maintenance issues. Condition monitoring solutions have been developed to detect and diagnose abnormalities of various wind turbine subsystems with the goal of reducing operations and maintenance costs. This paper explores fault data provided by the supervisory control and data acquisition system and offers fault prediction...

background : the data related to patients often have very useful information that can help us to resolve a lot of problems and difficulties in different areas. this study was performed to present a model-based data mining to predict lung cancer in 2014. methods : in this exploratory and modeling study, information was collected by two methods: library and field methods. all gathered variables w...

this paper presents a survey on soil pb concentration around sepahanshahr town located in vicinity of isfahan. due to the lack of regulation and environmental education and awareness, sepahanshahr is now a rapid growing residential area suffering from the considerable consequences of poorly regulated mining activities operating in its vicinity. the aim of this study is to explore the spatial st...

Metal mines mined using the sublevel caving method often exhibit various environmental problems on ground surface. This can affect safety of production process in mining area. A numerical model Universal Distinct Element Code has been established to investigate deformation failure giving rise this underground mining. The calculations are combined with in-situ monitoring data collected over a pe...

In this paper, we report a geospatial assessment of the selected mine sites in the Plateau State, Nigeria. The aim of this work is to determine the impact of mining on the terrain as well as the Land Use/Land Cover (LULC) of the host communities. The Shuttle Radar Topographic Mission (SRTM) is used for the terrain mapping. The derived impact of mining on LULC between 1975 and 2014 is determined...
