Based on the big data theory and data mining of gas pipeline failure history, the key factors determining the safety of pipeline system are found out, such as probability, function, time and prescribed conditions. Based on the reliability principle,…
Building big data analytics (BDA) applications in the cloud introduces inevitable challenges, such as loss of control and uncertainty. To address the existing challenges, numerous efforts have been made on BDA application engineering to optimize the…
Liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) is commonly used for heating, cooking, automotive power, and various other uses worldwide. LPG is a particularly flammable gas, and LPG leaks cause significant incidents. The cause may arise from improper installation to…
The seven papers included in this special section focus on reliability, resilience, and prognostics modeling of complex engineering systems. This topic has become very challenging due to factors such as complex physical interdependence and functional…
As the risk associated with wildfires in the western United States increases every year, it becomes fundamental to research alternatives to both improve the resilience and reliability of engineering systems against those types of events, as well as…
Cloud computing becoming popular now day as, the world is moving towards vitalization and it provide resource to the users depending on their needs by using different resource allocation technique. Resilience and reliability is one of the major issue…
Continuous access to electricity has become a fundamental demand in the modern world. However, in many countries, the rural areas either have no access to electricity or have access through a weak distribution network with inadequate transmission and…
Power Quality is a crucial aspect of power systems as the technologies of electrical systems and loads became advanced and harder to control. The current and voltage signals efficiency is minimized due to harmonics and other factors. The use of…
The paper reviews application of real-time strain gauge analysis for locating defects via pulse control. Various diagnostics and defect detection methods used for condition monitoring have advantages and disadvantages. In this study, we suggest pulse…
This paper presents the feasibility and design of a Microgrid (MG) for Demand Response (DR), demand peak shaving, and energy arbitrage using a real-world test case, located in Texas. The real-world study MG consisted of natural gas generators and a…
Pipeline is a common transportation mode in oil and gas industry. Erosion wear is one of the important factors leading to pipeline failure. In order to better analyze the erosion of the inner wall of t-tee pipe, the erosion of gas-solid two-phase…
