Description: This book presents a detailed and up-to-date exposition of fault monitoring methods in industrial processes and structures. The following approaches are explained in considerable detail: Model-based methods (simple tests, analytical redundancy, parameter estimation); knowledge-based methods; artificial neural network methods; and nondestructive testing, etc. Each approach is complemented by specific case studies from various industrial sectors (aerospace, chemical, nuclear, etc.), thus bridging theory and practice. This volume will be a valuable tool in the hands of professional and academic engineers. It can also be recommended as a supplementary postgraduate textbook. For scientists whose work involves automatic process control and supervision, statistical process control, applied statistics, quality control, computer-assisted predictive maintenance and plant monitoring, and structural reliability and safety.
