Surge control in a centrifugal air compressor is crucial to ensure the reliable operation of a
fuel cell system, but few studies have reported on compressor surges in fuel cell systems …

In this review paper, the anti-surge control (ASC) of the compressors and fault-tolerant
control (FTC) systems are described from the perspective of integration for reliability …

Dependability analyses in the design phase are common in IEC 60300 standards to assess
the reliability, risk, maintainability, and maintenance supportability of specific physical …

This work presents the development of an advanced control strategy using Model Predictive
Control (MPC) for controlling the gas compression system of an offshore platform. It includes …

In this paper, the Greitzer surge model was systematically analysed with the model
compressor duct length Lc as the tuning parameter. The surge phenomenon is known to …

In practice, model-based fault diagnosis methods are essential to improve availability with
reduced operating costs and good operational reliability of industrial systems. This is based …

Long-term reliable condition monitoring (CM) of blast furnace blowers is essential to avoid
catastrophic failure. Due to variable working conditions, the predefined thresholds in current …

The diagnosis of faults and failures in industrial systems is becoming increasingly essential.
This work proposes the development of a fault diagnostics system based on artificial …

In industrial practice, the representation of the dynamics of nonlinear systems by models
linking their different operating variables requires an identification procedure to characterize …

Jet engines are nowadays one of the most popular ways of propulsion for aircraft. This type
of propulsion is widely used also in other sectors of industry. The main challenging task for …
