Software development for remaining useful life prediction of bearings

Bearings are crucial components in various industries, such as power generation, aerospace, and oil and gas. Predicting a bearing’s Remaining Useful Life (RUL) is essential for Condition-Based Maintenance. To achieve accurate RUL predictions, an accurate Health Indicator (HI) that represents degradation patterns is necessary. However, existing HIs can be affected by time varying working conditions […]

Nature-based air purifier integrated with biochar-cellulose aerogels with long-term durability and multi-pollutant removal capacity

Indoor pollution sources (e.g., fuel-burning combustion appliances, building materials, and furnishings) are the primary cause of indoor air quality problems. Household air pollution was responsible for an estimated 3.2 million deaths per year in 2020, including over 237,000 deaths of children under the age of 5. To address this problem, we developed a nature-based air […]
