...Scott A. Miers; Glen L. Barna; Carl L. Anderson; Jason R. Blough; M. Koray Inal; Stephen A. Ciatti Wireless microwave telemetry addresses the difficult issue of obtaining transducer outputs from reciprocating and rotating components through the use of advanced electronic components. This eliminates...

... for this purpose. The rig is equipped with six electromagnetic actuators and different types of sensors (eddy-current displacement transducers, acceleration transducers, and strain gages) with the aim of monitoring and controlling shaft and blade vibration levels. Two different actively controlled rotor-blade...

...J. J. Yu; D. E. Bently; P. Goldman; K. P. Dayton; B. G. Van Slyke This paper introduces the methodology of rolling element bearing defect detection using high-gain displacement transducers. The nature of defect influence on the outer race deflection in the vicinity of the transducer tip in time...
