Using Simplified Models to Assist Fault Detection and Diagnosis in Large Hydrogenerators by Geraldo Carvalho Brito Junior, Roberto Dalledone Machado, Anselmo Chaves Neto

“…A first model estimates the influence of changes in bearing operating conditions in the bearing stiffnesses, considering only the hydrodynamic effects of an isoviscous oil film with linear thickness distribution. A second model simulates hydrogenerators dynamics using only 10 degrees of freedom, giving the monitored vibrations as outputs, under normal operating conditions or in the presence of a fault. …”

Effect of Ion Magnetron Sputtering Method on Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM)Images of Materials with Different Surface Properties by ZHANG Jie, ZOU Junwen, LIU Xueguang, LI Xiaoying

“…In order to investigate the effect of ion magnetron sputtering parameters on the scanning electron microscopy (SEM) images of nonconductive materials with different surface properties， the advantages and limitations of various ion magnetron sputtering conditions， including target material， sputtering time and sputtering cycles were studied， along with their applicable ranges.Results showed that the gold target exhibited good continuity with large grain nucleation of gold.Due to its high sputtering energy， it easily caused thermal loss on the sample surface， and the gold grains adhered to the surface.Therefore， gold targets were found to be suitable for low -magnification SEM imaging(<10 000) and materials with a certain surface hardness.In contrast， the platinum target showed poor continuity with small platinum grain nucleation and lower sputtering energy.It was more likely to embed into the sample surface， forming a morphological framework， making it suitable for high-magnification SEM imaging (>30 000) and most non-conductive materials.Using a method of fewer， multiple ion magnetron sputtering cycles， reducing the sputtering cycles appropriately not only weakened the effect of the gold film on the material’s morphology and structure but also helped conserve resources and protect the environment.This result provides experimental guidance for researchers to scientifically and accurately analyze SEM images of samples.…”
