In this paper, a fully convolutional data description (FCDD) model is applied to defect detection and its concurrent visualization for industrial products and materials. The authors’ propose a MATLAB application that enables users to efficientl...

After the publication of the paper, Endre Takacs from Clemson University contacted the corresponding author Alaa Saadah to ask for multiple individuals (Laszlo Fadgyas, Jason Henderson, Tibor Koroknai, Máté Koroknai, David Takacs, Peter...

To address the data imbalance issue in the process of collecting bearing fault data in industrial environments and to enhance the robustness and generalization ability of fault diagnosis, this paper proposes a bearing fault diagnosis method based on...

The hydraulic energy storage component (HESC) is the core component of hydraulic energy regeneration (HER) technologies in construction equipment, directly influencing the overall energy efficiency of the system. However, under complex practical oper...

Lightweight components can have structural integrity and reliability concerns, coming from dynamic airborne pressure fields. Hardly tuned numerical structural models may enter into vibro-acoustic simulations of the pressure fields radiated by vibrati...

The gear-transmission system plays a crucial role in power transmission for urban railway vehicles. However, it can experience abnormal meshing conditions due to wheel polygonization, which presents a potential safety hazard for vehicle operations. T...

During the maintenance of railway fasteners, there are issues with the current nut disassembly and assembly operation, including low efficiency, heavy reliance on manual labor, and high physical strain. A mechanical device has been designed to move a...

A reduction of forces acting between the railway track and the vehicle is one of the key issues in the design of modern rolling stock. Because the capabilities of reducing wheel–rail contact forces in track curves by conventional methods are en...

Accurate fault diagnosis remains a critical but unresolved issue in predictive maintenance, as industrial environments typically involve large amounts of electromagnetic interference and mechanical noise that can severely degrade the signal quality....

Misalignment faults in drive systems occur when the motor and load are not properly aligned, leading to deviations in the centerlines of the coupled shafts. These faults can cause significant damage to bearings, shafts, and couplings, making early de...
