Menyelesaikan pekerjaan-Nya ialah tugas setiap orang percaya dan hamba Tuhan yang melayani di ladang-Nya utamanya tugas untuk memberitakan Injil Kerajaan Allah. Tugas ini haruslah dipahami dengan baik dan dikerjakan sungguh-sungguh. Faktanya masih ada orang percaya dan hamba Tuhan yang mengerjakannya tanpa memiliki pemahaman yang benar serta motivasi yang salah, yaitu hanya untuk mengejar materi. Akibatnya beberapa hamba Tuhan ada yang mundur atau berhenti dari pelayanan karena alasan-alasan yang bersifat duniawi.

Tujuan penelitian ini ialah untuk mengetahui arti, cara dan otoritas dalam “menyelesaikan pekerjaan-Nya” menurut Yohanes 4:34, supaya melaluinya orang percaya dan hamba Tuhan memiliki pemahaman yang benar, pandangan yang benar serta mampu mengimplikasikannya dalam kehidupan nyata terkait dengan menyelesaikan pekerjaan-Nya.

Metode yang digunakan adalah metode deskriptif dengan kajian Pustaka melalui survei Literatur yang berkaitan dengan menyelesaikan pekerjaan-Nya. Peneliti memperoleh hasil penelitian yaitu: Pertama, Arti dari menyelesaikan pekerjaan-Nya yaitu suatu tindakan sempurna yang telah dilakukan oleh Tuhan Yesus, namun tidak berhenti sampai disitu saja, Yesus menginginkan agar pekerjaan-Nya ini dilakukan oleh setiap orang percaya dengan keyakinan dan kesungguhan, dengan sebuah harapan orang percaya dapat melakukannya. Kedua, Cara Menyelesaikan Pekerjaan-Nya. Cara Menyelesaikan Pekerjaan-Nya adalah Melakukan Kehendak Dia. Melakukan Kehendak Dia adalah membawa jiwa-jiwa kepada Tuhan. Ketiga, otoritas untuk menyelesaikan pekerjaan-Nya. Otoritas untuk menyelesaikan pekerjaan-Nya adalah dari Dia yang mengutus aku, yaitu dari Tuhan sendiri.

Authors: Sumiyati Sumiyati , Etnasari Anjaya Carolina
Published: April 2022

True doctrine contains real energy and events as a character-spirit changer of listeners. When the doctrine taught is not put into practice by the preacher then the doctrine is not real or virtual, because it does not impartation and is powerless to change. This study aims to describe the meaning of virtual doctrine based on a study of Matthew 23:13-33 and its impact on the development of the Christian faith. The research method uses a qualitative approach with literature study and interpretation of the biblical text. Data were also obtained through direct observation and interviews in the field. The results of the study conclude that the phenomenon of virtual doctrine can have a fatal impact on the development of the congregation's faith. Therefore, spiritual leaders need to reflect and change themselves so that they are able to live the teachings they convey and in the end can become living examples.

Published: April 2022

Mathematics is an absolute truth that has a definite value, and mathematics is a science that studies numbers, numbers, formulas, and calculation analyses. While the Bible is the living Word of God as a guide for Christian beliefs. One of the results of the development of mathematical philosophy of thought in the current era of disruption is that humans can experience the Bible in digital form. This writing uses the Literature Study method, and the results of this study show that the perspective of the philosophy of mathematics in the Bible shows the perfection of God in every calculation. It should be understood together that without realizing the results of the proof of every mathematical calculation in this paper is the result of the formulation of God's mathematical philosophy which has been applied to an object of Bible texts related to mathematics.
Mencintai Alam: Perspektif Agustinus Dari Hippo
Authors: Nassa Grace Son
Published: April 2022

This research is motivated by an ecological crisis that cannot be separated from the spiritual crisis of mankind. This research is constructive and offers a way of loving nature based on the perspective of Augustine from Hippo. The method used is content analysis, which requires the author to analyze primary and secondary writings related to the topic and then draw important points, process and present them in the form of descriptions. This research shows that Augustine's perspective on loving nature is significant for the current ecological crisis because Augustine does not agree with the utilitarian point of view in looking at nature and even suggests throwing it away because it is very detrimental to nature. In addition, renewal of the senses, mind, and heart, and contemplating God in nature and nature in God becomes a necessary thing and a way that can be used in an effort to love nature. These three things can be a positive contribution to efforts to find ways to love nature which are currently critical.
Comparison of post-covid-19 multisystem inflammatory syndrome in children (MIS-C) and Kawasaki disease
Authors: Tran Kiem Hao
Published: April 2022

Post-covid-19 multisystem inflammatory syndrome in children (MIS-C) is a novel, life-threatening hyperinflammatory condition that develops in children a few weeks after infection with severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2). Its clinical features and laboratory characteristics are similar to those of Kawasaki disease (KD), KD shock syndrome, and toxic shock syndrome that present diagnostic and therapeutic challenges to the physician.

However, this new disorder has some distinct clinical features and laboratory characteristics. MIS-C presents with a greater variety of signs and symptoms and is more often characterized by gastrointestinal and neurologic symptoms. MIS-C more typically presents with ventricular dysfunction and shock (more than 50% in MIS-C versus 5–10% in KD). The development of coronary artery aneurysms in both disorders may increase diagnostic uncertainty. Children with MIS-C have lower absolute lymphocyte and platelet counts, higher ferritin and D-dimer levels, and a higher likelihood of having elevated troponin or ProBNP levels.

This review will compare and contrast MIS-C and KD in terms of clinical symptoms, blood markers, cardiac manifestations, diagnostic criteria, and treatment.

Published: May 2022

A comparative study of serum biochemical and hematological parameters from Andinoacara rivulatus and Ichthyoelephas humeralis in Los Ríos Province, Ecuador, was carried out. Two of the native species that are the most commercialized in Quevedo, Mocache and Fumisa, were identified; 60 specimens were captured in each area (180 total). A factorial design (3×2) was used: three habitat zones (Fumisa, Quevedo, and Mocache) and two species (A. rivulatus and I. humeralis). Sex, weight, length, serum biochemistry (total protein, albumin, globulin, albumin/globulin ratio, aspartate aminotransferase (AST), alanine aminotransferase (ALT), calcium, phosphorus, sodium, magnesium, and potassium), hematological parameters (hemoglobin, hematocrits, erythrocytes, mean corpuscular volume (MCV), mean corpuscular hemoglobin (MCH), mean corpuscular hemoglobin concentration (MCHC), total leukocytes, granulocytes leukocytes, and agranulocytes leukocytes) in fishes were determined. There was zone-species interaction for all indicators except MCH and MCHC (P < 0.05). For total proteins, albumins and ALT were for I. humeralis in Fumisa and Mocache zones (2.81, 1.57, and 326.67 g dL-1, respectively). In comparison, A. rivulatus was higher in Fumisa and Quevedo in globulins and the albumins/globulins ratio with 2.28 g dL-1 and 2.14, respectively. Electrolytes were found in low concentrations in the two species. For the hematological parameters, all presented significant differences (P < 0.05) except MCH and MCHC. For I. humeralis, its highest values were presented in hemoglobin with 13.37 g dL-1 in Fumisa, for MCV and total leukocytes (93.11 fL-1 and 8.03×103 μL-1) respectively, in the Mocache area. This study will provide essential tools in monitoring the health status of these fish species in particular and fish species in general.
Development of enriched Artemia and Moina in larviculture of fish and crustaceans: a review
Authors: Joshua Wizilla Janti , Kamarudin Mohd Salleh , Ikhsan Natrah , Md Yusoff Fatimah , Zulperi Zarirah
Published: May 2022

Inconsistencies in the nutritional values of live food such as Artemia and Moina are well-known issues. The enrichment of live food is necessary to obtain the optimum nutrients needed for the growth, survival, and immune competence of fish and crustaceans' larvae. The enhanced growth and survival of fish and crustaceans' larvae are vital to continuous aquaculture production. However, enriched live food could be species-specific as various aquatic larval species may respond differently to the enrichment diets. The enrichment of Artemia and Moina as the "bags of nutrients" has been widely studied and involved various enrichment diets such as commercial diets containing essential fatty acids, highly unsaturated fatty acids, and vitamin C. The use of natural enrichment diets such as yeast, microalgae, and herbal extract, including the common name Chinese chaste tree leaf (Vitex negundo), is becoming popular in aquaculture nutritional development. These natural enrichment diets are more economical and environmentally friendly than commercial diets. The compositions of Artemia and Moina are both affected by the enrichment diets that they consumed, hence directly affecting the growth of the larvae that fed on them. Hence, this review highlights the development of enriched Artemia and Moina and their effects on the growth performance and the immune competence of fish and crustaceans' larvae.
Identification in ascending auctions, with an application to digital rights management
Authors: Freyberger Joachim , Larsen Bradley J.
Published: May 2022

This study provides new identification and estimation results for ascending (traditional English or online) auctions with unobserved auction‐level heterogeneity and an unknown number of bidders. When the seller's reserve price and two order statistics of bids are observed, we derive conditions under which the distributions of buyer valuations, unobserved heterogeneity, and number of participants are point identified. We also derive conditions for point identification in cases where reserve prices are binding and present general conditions for partial identification. We propose a nonparametric maximum likelihood approach for estimation and inference. We apply our approach to the online market for used iPhones and analyze the effects of recent regulatory changes banning consumers from circumventing digital rights management technologies used to lock phones to service providers. We find that buyer valuations for unlocked phones dropped by 39% on average after the unlocking ban took effect, from $231.30 to $141.50.
Digitalization in Public Sector Procurement and Consequences From an Organizational Point of View in the EU
Authors: Garcia Maria Jesus Garcia
Published: May 2022

Public procurement is undergoing a digital transformation. The EU supports the process of rethinking public procurement process with digital technologies in mind. This goes beyond simply moving to electronic tools; it rethinks various pre-award and post-award phases. The aim is to make them simpler for businesses to participate in and for the public sector to manage. It also allows for the integration of data-based approaches at various stages of the procurement process. With digital tools, public spending should become more transparent, evidence-oriented, optimised, streamlined, and integrated with market conditions. This puts e-procurement at the heart of other changes introduced to public procurement in new EU directives.
An Analysis and Detection of Misleading Information on Social Media Using Machine Learning Techniques
Authors: Narayan Ritushree , Sinha Keshav , Upadhyay Devesh K.
Published: May 2022

The widespread adoption of user-generated material on social networking sites enables the gathering of individuals. The internet has grown in popularity based on multidisciplinary information sources. Nowadays, every individual has constantly bombarded the internet with information, and it is very challenging for every person to distinguish between factual and misleading information. Social networking sites mainly rely on content providers to filter the information. The chapter has focused on political news where the machine learning-based hybrid approach has been used to detect false statements. The work is to determine the information is deceptive or accurate. The authors investigate the link between publisher attitude and news stance, and the hyperpartisan media sources are more prone than other resources to propagate false information. Furthermore, they show that this is not required to examine news and information to recognize misleading headlines, but that utilizing variables such as publisher bias, user interactions, and news-related pictures may obtain equivalent results.
Barriers to Work Wellness Among Academic Staff in Higher Education Institutions
Authors: Aloka Peter J. O.
Published: May 2022

It is expected that academic staff should focus not only on the knowledge they are retaining, creating, and sharing, but also ensure their wellness is taken care of, as these multiple dimensions may affect their productivity. However, there is overwhelming evidence that higher education institutions no longer provide low-stress working environments and that academics throughout the world deal with a substantial amount of ongoing occupational stress. By adopting a conceptual framework, the study reviewed previous research. The study reported that barriers to work wellness among staff in higher education institutions include but are not limited to aspects such as personal barriers, environmental barriers, organizational barriers, and legal barriers. The study recommends that wellness programs should include the vision, mission, and values of the organization and that there should be enhanced transparency and staff consultation before implementation is done.

Authors: Bedoui Sana , Essefi Elhoucine , Hamed Younes
Published: May 2022

The thermodynamic theoretical modeling of brines from the Chott Djerid, Southeastern Tunisia and Sebkha Bazer, Northeast Algeria between the initial solution and evaporation of 100% shows different geochemical evolutions and variable precipitated mineral species. This is due to different initial geochemical compositions, which are basically related to different geological and climatic contexts. A rigorous thermodynamic model has been presented for determining the crystallization sequence during the different stages of the evaporation process. A geochemical software program (PHREEQC) was used. Based on the analyses, PHREEQC appears the precipitation of a sequence of minerals. These results are confirmed by the mineralogical analyses (XRD results). The gradual evaporation process of brine showed that thenardite, gypsum, halite, and huntite are the feasible salts that could be extracted. Halite is the most abundant mineral along with the evaporation experiment of the two sebkhas.

Authors: Deb Swagata , Mukherjee Surjargha , Dongre Piyush , Giri Tapan Kumar
Published: April 2022

The goals of prosthodontic management of patients with cleft lip and palate (CLP) are the restoration of esthetics and improvement of speech and occlusion. Deficiency of bone volume, soft-tissue excess, or presence of oronasal fistula complicates the treatment planning. Though dental implants present a viable treatment option to replace missing teeth in the cleft region, the need for bone augmentation and surgical morbidity limits its application in some patients. A combination of fixed dental prosthesis, resin bonded bridges, removable prosthesis, and overdentures allows conservative management of such patients without causing further morbidity. This clinical report illustrates two patients with CLP managed with a resin-bonded Maryland Bridge and a tooth-supported overdenture.

Authors: Ahmed Faraz , Pathak Amit Kumar , Banerjee Sagnik , Jainer Rahul
Published: April 2022

Odontomas are the most frequent hamartomatous developmental abnormality. The condition is frequently associated with one or more unerupted teeth and is often detected through the failure of teeth to erupt at the expected time. Although most cases are found impacted within the jaw, there are instances where odontomas have erupted into the oral cavity. Majority of the odontomas are asymptomatic nonetheless these anomalies can cause delayed eruption, impaction, or even result in retention of primary teeth. Odontomas are atypical calcified conglomeration of dental tissues such as enamel, dentin, pulp, and cementum and emerge from odontogenic epithelium thus, they are mixed odontogenic tumor. According to the literature, its origin can be local trauma, infection, or genetic mutations, however, the exact cause is unknown. This case report presents a compound composite odontome in a 25-year-old patient along with its related clinical and radiological manifestations and the surgical management and emphasis on the early diagnosis and treatment planning.

Published: May 2022

Probabilistic volcanic hazard assessment is a standard methodology based on running a deterministic hazard quantification tool multiple times to explore the full range of uncertainty in the input parameters and boundary conditions, in order to probabilistically quantify the variability of outputs accounting for such uncertainties. Nowadays, different volcanic hazards are quantified by means of this approach. Among these, volcanic gas emission is particularly relevant given the threat posed to human health if concentrations and exposure times exceed certain thresholds. There are different types of gas emissions but two main scenarios can be recognized: hot buoyant gas emissions from fumaroles and the ground and dense gas emissions feeding density currents that can occur, e.g., in limnic eruptions. Simulation tools are available to model the evolution of critical gas concentrations over an area of interest. Moreover, in order to perform probabilistic hazard assessments of volcanic gases, simulations should account for the natural variability associated to aspects such as seasonal and daily wind conditions, localized or diffuse source locations, and gas fluxes. Here we present VIGIL (automatized probabilistic VolcanIc Gas dIspersion modeLling), a new Python tool designed for managing the entire simulation workflow involved in single and probabilistic applications of gas dispersion modelling. VIGIL is able to manage the whole process from meteorological data processing, needed to run gas dispersion in both the dilute and dense gas flow scenarios, to the post processing of models’ outputs. Two application examples are presented to show some of the modelling capabilities offered by VIGIL.

Cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) is a conventional tomography’s improvement, developed especially for the assessment of the maxillofacial region. CBCT produces three-dimensional images that allow its use in several areas of dentistry. The objective of this literature review is to show, based on the literature, the diversity of applications in the field of dentistry that such imaging has, highlighting its benefits and limitations in different dental specialties. The present study consists of exploratory research, carried out through a review of the narrative literature. The bibliographic survey was carried out by means of national and international journal articles, theses, dissertations and other publications, found in the digital library databases (Google Academic, BVS, Sciencedirect, Researchgate, Scielo, Wiley Online Library, Pubmed) from 2000 to 2020. The articles that precede these data were selected for their historical character on the proposed theme. It is concluded that dentists must be aware of the technological advances that occur in the field of dental imaging in order to manage diagnoses and treatments more efficiently, thus avoiding possible errors. CBCT demonstrates that it has multiple indications in different dental specialties, each case must be evaluated individually, analyzing the real need for its use. In cases where there is a need for its use, its cost-effectiveness is better than any disadvantage it may present.

Fingerprints are the marks left by the friction of human fingers. Fingerprint identification compares two friction skin impressions of human fingers or toes to resolve whether the impressions may have come from the same person. Fingerprint identification is one of the biometric identification technologies. Most mainstream fingerprint identification algorithms are based on artificially predefined traditional fingerprint features, such as orientation field and singular point. However, because these algorithms rely heavily on artificial predefined features, when the image noise is large, the artificial predefined features cannot be extracted effectively, resulting in poor identification accuracy. After 2012, some researchers used convolutional neural networks for fingerprint identification tasks and achieved higher accuracy. However, this paper believes that the fingerprint images have relatively special curves, so the traditional convolutional neural network algorithms cannot fully extract the characteristics of the curves. Therefore, this paper proposes the siamese rectangular convolutional neural networks (SRCNN) algorithm to solve this problem. This paper presents the detailed architecture of SRCNN and experiments on NIST Special Database 4. The experimental results show that the accuracy of SRCNN is 4% higher than that of traditional convolutional neural networks on the test set. That is to say, SRCNN performs better than traditional convolutional neural networks in fingerprint recognition tasks.

This study aims to optimize the operation of an air conditioning (AC) system by tracking situational changes due to outside temperature, number of people and computers, and other factors. Therefore, we studied the accurate estimation of system parameters of an AC unit during operation. We modeled the AC system using the first-order plus dead time model and discretized it using the autoregressive with exogenous input model. We developed a technique to estimate the system parameters using Bayesian optimization. Here, the system parameters are values that determine the physical characteristics of the combined air conditioning system and room. Therefore, we determined that there are cases where the characteristics deteriorate after repeated estimation. By solving this problem, we were able to establish a practical system.

Published: April 2022

Abstract— This article presents three control schemes: (i) feedback control method using LQR approach, (ii) inversionbased feedforward control method, and (iii) integration of the feedback control method with the feedforward control method, which is a control system that combines a feedback control method with a feedforward approach. Each control scheme is implemented to track two types of desired trajectories: triangle wave trajectory and sawtooth wave trajectory of the same frequency of 200 Hz and the same amplitude of 5 µm. The tracking is challenging in that the system is very fast, and the motion takes microscale amplitudes. The performance of tracking for each control method is evaluated by the quantifying tracking errors. The main contributions of this article are to show that: (i) the feedback control method cannot track the desired trajectories properly, and tracking errors are perhaps not acceptable in some applications, (ii) the feedforward method can substantially improve the performance of tracking as it is compared to that of the feedback approach, and (iii) integration of the feedback control scheme with the feedforward control scheme can further enhance the tracking of the trajectories and can achieve the best performance of tracking. The integration of the feedback control method with the feedforward control method can be effectively used in case good tracking is needed. Keywords— feedback control method, feedforward control method, LQR, reduced order inverse scheme, trajectory tracking, very fast microscale systems

This study considers the approach for the distribution of a limited number of combat means - unmanned aerial vehicles during preparation for their application at objects (targets) of impact, taking into account the importance of targets and the state of their protection (probability of defeat). The approach is based on one of the non-linear programming methods, but is reduced to an algorithm available for practical use among practitioners who prepare data for decision making in headquarters, control points, support services. It is noted that such an approach can be useful in case of limited quantity of combat means, when there is a need to direct them primarily to priority targets for implementing a general ultimate task set by the highest authority.

The growth of the bio-industry is establishing itself as a new growth engine in place of semiconductors, chemicals, and automobiles, the three major industries that have traditionally driven the Korean economy. While the ICT market, which was leading the rapid growth of the Korean economy, is maturing and the mid- to late-stage industry is stagnating, the bio industry is emerging as a next-generation growth engine. Issues in the bio sector due to continuous threats of infectious diseases such as COVID-19 and aging population not only incur direct financial costs but also lead to social problems, so it is time for active intervention by the state. As Korea's fast catch-up strategy, which has led to rapid growth in the 1980s, faces limitations due to the rise of China and other underdeveloped countries, it is necessary to foster key personnel for innovative economic growth. Although it has focused on simple technology development, it is shifting to strategic technology management, and the demand for professional technology management personnel necessary for this is continuously increasing. In this situation, the importance of strategic technology management is growing when technology-intensive such as the bio-industry field, the risk of R&D is high, and the intermediate performance of R&D stages is important. Therefore, this study reviewed previous studies to summarize the understanding of the bioindustry and the necessity of technology management. Accordingly, a demand survey was conducted on bio-related industries to establish industry-specific education necessary for fostering professional technology management personnel in the bio-industry. In addition, it is intended to provide implications by analyzing the results and presenting a plan to establish education below technical management personnel specializing in the bio-industry. Keywords— Bio-industry, Technology management personnel, Industry-specific education, Strengthen the bioindustr
Der Migration-Integration-Komplex: Wissenschaft und Politik in einem (Nicht-)Einwanderungsland, 1960-2010
Authors: Espahangizi Kijan
Published: May 2022

Eine Welt ohne Migration scheint kaum mehr vorstellbar. Und Auseinandersetzungen über Fragen der Integration prägen längst auch die Debatten in Einwanderungsländern, die keine sein wollen. Das Buch von Kijan Espahangizi setzt deswegen bei den Wörtern »Migration« und »Integration« an und geht am Beispiel der Schweiz der Frage nach, warum zwei sozialwissenschaftliche Fachbegriffe, die vor wenigen Jahrzehnten öffentlich kaum verwendet wurden, heute nicht mehr wegzudenken sind. Mit ihrem diskursiven Aufstieg hat sich unsere Sicht auf die moderne Gesellschaft grundlegend gewandelt. Ausgangspunkt des Buches ist die ›Entdeckung‹ der ungeplanten Einwanderung im Zuge der Ausländerbeschäftigung in den 1960er Jahren und die bis heute umstrittene Frage, wie Einwanderung zu gestalten und zu steuern ist. Seitdem hat sich nach und nach ein Komplex von Akteuren, Institutionen und Diskursen herausgebildet, der um die Begriffe Migration und Integration organisiert und zunehmend vom Rand ins Zentrum gesellschaftlicher Debatten gerückt ist. Kijan Espahangizi folgt den Begriffen deswegen ins Dickicht der sozialen Praxis: zu den Kirchen, Hilfswerken, Gewerkschaften, staatlichen Behörden, politischen Parteien, Ausländerorganisationen und sozialen Bewegungen. Warum und wann wurden in Gesellschaft und Politik Konzepte der Migrationsforschung aufgegriffen, wie haben sich die Vorstellungs- und Handlungsräume dabei verschoben und wie wurde umgekehrt die Wissenschaft von politischen Prozessen geprägt? Mit Antworten auf diese Fragen erschließt das Buch vier grundlegende Perspektivverschiebungen, die international zu beobachten sind: die soziologische Ausweitung der Einwanderungsdebatten auf die Gesamtgesellschaft ab den 1960er Jahren, ihre politische Aneignung in den 1970ern, die kulturelle Wende sowie schließlich eine Globalisierung der Migrationsfrage in den 1980er und 1990er Jahren.

Günümüzde her geçen gün daha da zorlaşan rekabet şartları büyümeyi sağlamak isteyen şirketleri, faaliyetlerini etkili ve verimli şekilde yapmaya zorlamaktadır. Artan maliyetler ve pazarda gerçekleşen rekabetçi fiyat stratejisi; şirketleri, ürüne müşteri açısından hiçbir değer katmayan fakat müşterinin satış fiyatı içerisinde maliyetine katlanmak zorunda olduğu kayıp/israf olarak nitelendirilen tüm faaliyetleri önlemeye yöneltmektedir. Düşen kârlılık oranları ile bu kayıp ve israf noktaları daha da önemli hale gelmektedir. Bu israf ve kayıplar içerisinde ise kullanıcı, çevresel veya üretim şartlarındaki değişkenliklerden kaynaklanabilen müşteriden şikâyet veya iade olarak geri dönen ürünler önemli bir yer tutmaktadır. Yapılan çalışmanın temel amacı, tüm üreticiler içerisinde 99%’luk bölümü oluşturan küçük veya orta ölçekteki şirketlerin ihtiyaçlarına yönelik olarak satış sonrası hizmet süreçlerinde güvenilirlik mühendisliği uygulamalarını, bu çalışmanın ilgili bölümlerinde açıklanan yetersiz veri yapısı durumunda düşük maliyetler ile gerçekleştirebilmelerini sağlamak, böylece de uygulanabilir bir güvenirlilik mühendisliği süreci oluşturmaktır. Bu süreç operasyonel mükemmelliğe katkı sağlayacaktır. Operasyonel mükemmellik seviyesi; işgücü, teknolojisi ve tedarikçisi birbirine benzer üreticiler içerisinde rekabet üstünlüğünde belirleyici olmaktadır. Önerilen güvenilirlik analizi yaklaşımı mobilya sektöründe faaliyet gösteren bir firmada mobilya ünitelerinde uygulanmıştır. Uygulama sonucunda ilgili tasarım özelliğinde robustluğun 17% arttırılması ile ürünlerin garanti kapsamında hata yapma olasılığı 31,3%’ten 17%’ye düşürülmüştür.

A Review on Application of Condition Indicators for Fault Detection in Rolling Machine Elements
Authors: Tiwari Rahul , Gakare Abhishek , Baghel Anand
Published: April 2022

Condition monitoring and fault detection of rolling machine elements is considered a key aspect as it ensures continuously decreased cost, unplanned downtime, and unexpected breakdown. The application of condition indicators is considered one of the most effective and popular methods for the detection of faults in machine elements. Condition indicators play a vital role in fault diagnosis because of their ability to quantify the changes in the vibration signals and thus provide key information about the state of various rolling machinery elements at subsequent levels of a fault i.e. from the initial level of a fault to its substantial level. However, the articles quoting condition indicators for the detection of faults in various rolling machinery elements are still less in number. So, there is a need for more work on the application of condition indicators for fault detection in machine elements. In this paper, various condition indicators are discussed domain-wise along with their mathematical expression & characteristics and then after the various application of the condition indictors to fault diagnosis are also briefed. The goal of the paper is to put forward a comprehensive review on the application of condition indicators for fault detection in machine elements to provide the researchers with a good and wide set of references for their future research works. This paper immensely reviews and classifies important papers and articles on conditional indicators on the basis of adopted methodologies. Finally, open problems are stated and future research prospects are also pointed out.
