Ramdin, Shiv (author)Engine maintenance needs to be planned timely and strategically. This can only be done if the health of the engine can be predicted, which requires an accurate engine performance model. Developing such a model is becoming increasingly challenging, due to the reduced number of sensors in modern gas turbines. Besides this, a lot of data is...master thesis 2022
