Rijkswaterstaat’s Storm Surge Barriers are expensive assets providing economic value with the expectation of future returns. The maintenance is executed by the asset management department, which aims at maximizing operability without sacrificing safety and reliability. However, regular maintenance becomes more stringent as circumstances change,...

Highly-loaded low-speed roller bearings are frequently used in equipment offshore e.g. slew bearings in crane, sheave bearings and FPSO turret bearings. Reducing maintenance costs, increasing productivity, ensuring safety of people and structural integrity and longevity assurance of equipment can be achieved by the condition monitoring of highly...

Aircraft maintenance methods are shifting from conservative maintenance approaches such as a periodic maintenance approach towards predictive maintenance approaches, leading to a reduction of costs, less unexpected aircraft-on-ground events and less wasted useful life of components. In this paper, we propose a new remaining useful life...

With the increasing availability of sensor data to monitor the health of systems and components, maintenance is encountering a shift from the traditional preventive and corrective methodologies to a predictive approach. Given that maintenance, repair and overhaul are a significant operational cost to organizations, it is imperative that the...

In this thesis, a simulation cost model is presented that can be used to assess the cost-effectiveness of a selection of PdM programs. The proposed model combines a discrete event simulation (DES) model with a cost model. It is specifically designed to analyse the PdM programs for the vacuum compressor pumps at Duyvis. All the PdM programs...

This thesis evaluates standard statistical and machine learning models for early fault detection for Valve Regulated Lead-Acid (VRLA) batteries in uninterruptible power supply (UPS) units. Unexpected battery failures in emergency support systems throughout CERN can endanger working personnel. Thus the minimization of downtime of such battery...

Wind power is the fastest-growing energy source and the offshore wind industry is expected to grow by over 80 GW through 2024. There is a need to reduce all associated costs to be competitive in a market that might be fully subsidy-free soon. Adapting a predictive or condition-based maintenance strategy can help in reducing O&amp;M costs, as it...

Global and local aviation traffic is growing while economic and performance pressures on the industry are increasing. As a consequence, airlines try to maximise their fleet utilization. Airline operators and Maintenance, Repair and Overhaul (MRO) providers therefore require as much insight as possible in factors affecting component reliability...

In this day and age, failure of railway switches is managed using preventive and corrective maintenance, not predictive maintenance. These maintenance methods may allow for failure, where such a feailure could have been predicted. To combat this issue, this paper proposes a real-time predictive maintenance framework, which can identify the...

This study examines Gas Path Analysis (GPA) as a method for the predictive maintenance of the Honeywell 331-500 Auxiliary Power Unit (APU). The 331-500 is used on the Boeing 777 and is susceptible to a sudden failure during operation due to the release of a first stage turbine blade. Investigations found the failure mechanisms of the blade...

Modern refineries typically use a high number of sensors that generate an enormous amount of data about the condition of the plants. This generated data can be used to perform predictive maintenance, an approach to predict impending failures and mitigate downtime in refineries. This research analyzes the scalability of machine learning methods...

The newest generation of aircraft has seen a strong increase in sensor data generated on-board. The available data has the potential to indicate the health state of individual components based on which their maintenance requirements can be determined, a maintenance strategy called Condition Based Maintenance. Predictive Maintenance is a specific...
