Integrated condition monitoring is required to monitor effectively the machine conditions since machine failures could not be monitored accurately by any single measurement parameter. Application of various condition monitoring techniques is therefore preferred in many cases in order to diagnosis the machine condition. However it inevitably requires lots of maintenance cost and sometimes it could be proved to over-maintenance unnecessarily. This could happen especially when one measurement parameter closely correlates to another. Therefore correlation analysis of various monitoring parameters has to be performed to improve the reliability of diagnosis. In this work, Pearson correlation coefficient was used to analyze the correlation between condition monitoring parameters of an over-loaded machine system where the vibration, wear and temperature were monitored simultaneously. The result showed that Pearson correlation coefficient could be regarded as a good measure for evaluating the availability of condition monitoring technology.

This study was planned to develop monitoring system of cable force to resolve cable force of cable-stayed bridge efficiently in a long-term plan. In the proposed monitoring system, firstly data are sampled from real-time acceleration record, secondly these sampled data are frequency analyzed by using the FFT(Fast Fourier Transform) algorism and lastly the analyzed results are averaged and generalized. For evaluating the applicability of this monitoring system, field loading test has performed in real cable-stayed bridge. In comparison with cable force by field manual calculation and cable force of monitoring system by semi-automatic calculation, the difference of calculated cable forces has within 1% error range and it is acceptable range. Additionally within negligible 5% error range of difference has occur between field manual calculation and monitoring system by automatic calculation. so monitoring system in this study has been verified to be reliable.

An elevator maintenance company maintains many types of elevators from many manufactures. So, they want to use manufacture- or type-independent elevator remote monitoring system. To do this, data logger, that receives elevator operating state data from sensor module installed in elevator and transfers the data to database, is required. In this paper, we design and implement data logger of elevator remote monitoring system for providing elevator operation state information to elevator maintenance company. Data logger receives elevator operation state data from sensor module installed in elevator, decodes data, and converts to API data for transferring elevator operation state data to server. In this paper, we describe the implementation of data logger using python, and show that our implementation of data logger is successfully operating in a real elevator operating environment via log message displayed at screen.

Factory monitoring systems are gaining importance in wide areas of industry. Especially, there have been many efforts in implementation of vibration measurement and analysis for monitoring the status of rotating machines. In this paper, a digital signal processor (DSP) based monitoring system dedicated to the vibration monitoring and analysis on rotating machines is discussed. Vibration signals are acquired and processed for the continuous monitoring of the machine status. Time domain signals and fast Fourier transform (FFT) are used for vibration analysis. All of the signal processing procedures are done in the DSP to reduce the production and maintenance cost. The developed system could also provide remote and mobile monitoring capabilities to operator via internet connection. This paper describes the overview of the functional blocks of the implemented system. Test results based on signals from small-size single phase motors are discussed for monitoring and defect diagnosis of the machine status.

Turnout is one of railroad track components. The turnout is used to change train routes to near other sections when keeping the train speed. There are many accidents in the section including the turnout. The number of accidents and errors is 363 for ten years in the section including the turnout and annual average is 36.3. To ensure safety of the turnout, it is necessary to install monitoring systems. By using the monitoring systems, it is able to accumulate related information, develop maintenance and take a step for accidents in advance. Hence, The number of accidents and errors is decreased in the section including the turnout. So, when new turnout is installed, it is needed to use monitoring systems. Therefore, combined turnout management system is needed in Korea. It is possible to perform efficient maintenance because real-time monitoring system by using sensors and data-base management system. In this paper, accidents in the section including domestic turnout are analyzed and foreign combined turnout management system is presented. Hence, articles for installing the combined turnout management system in Korea are proposed.

We did the blooth module test as a pre-test of wireless sensor monitoring system, which for the improving of on-condition maintenance reliability, on the train. In this test, we examined the communication environment of wireless sensor monitoring system by the acceleration date and frequency date in the real train structure during the operation. Also based on this results, we did the experimental verification of the sensor power system which use piezoelectric energy conversion technology by the theoretical modeling for the applying on the train on-condition maintenance.

A RCM approach to maintenance of the catenary system of electric railway is proposed. The proposed RCM approach provides a maintenance-oriented FMECA procedure to derive critical failure modes by analyzing failure effects and a RCM decision logic tree to suggest optimal maintenance works for the derived failure modes. By applying the proposed RCM procedures to the catenary system of high speed railway, it is suggested that strand breaks of dropper and voltage equalizing wire, and trolly wire wear-out are the critical failure modes for whom maintenance works based on condition monitoring should be applied instead of conventional time-based preventive maintenance. It is also proposed by reliability analysis that replacement time of dropper can be reduced from 18 years to 10 years. These results show that the proposed RCM approach can optimize the maintenance procedures of catenary system.
