Fault Diagnosis and Prognosis of Critical Components

Description: Some critical components, such as bearings, gearboxes, and impellers, are widely used in machines. Their faults may accelerate failures of other components and finally result in machine breakdowns. To prevent any unexpected machine breakdowns and accidents, early faults of critical components should be detected as soon as possible. Once early faults of critical components are diagnosed, their performance degradation assessment and remaining useful life estimation should be conducted to maximize lifetime of critical components. This special issue mainly focuses on fault diagnosis and prognosis of critical components and enables researchers and engineers to share their most recent developments and ideas so as to improve technologies adopted in the research community of machine fault diagnosis and prognosis.
