Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This Special Issue on the "Fault Diagnosis of Equipment in the Process Industry" seeks to present the latest innovations and trends in fault detection, diagnosis, and predictive maintenance techniques for industrial processes. With the growing complexity and automation of modern industrial systems, effective fault diagnosis has become essential for ensuring operational safety, reliability, and efficiency. This Special Issue will focus on novel approaches and methodologies aimed at improving fault detection accuracy, reducing downtime, and enhancing the overall reliability of process equipment.
We welcome submissions that address both theoretical advancements and practical applications, particularly in areas involving intelligent algorithms, real-time monitoring, and the integration of fault diagnosis technologies within industrial systems. Researchers and practitioners from academia and industry are encouraged to contribute their latest work on fault diagnosis systems, predictive maintenance, and machine learning applications. With a focus on the fault diagnosis of equipment in the process industry, this Special Issue will encompass a wide range of topics, including, but not limited to, the following:
- Data-driven and model-based fault diagnosis techniques.
- Intelligent algorithms and machine learning for condition monitoring.
- AI and big data analytics in fault diagnosis for process equipment.
- Anomaly detection and location in the process industry.
- Remaining useful life prediction for key equipment.
- Small data challenges in PHM.
- Predictive maintenance and health management in the process industry.
- Fault diagnosis and prognosis systems and applications in the process industry.
- Reliability and safety assessment in complex systems.
