Marine current turbines (MCTs) has progressively attracted wider interest from the industry
and many research initiatives due to its potential as a novel world energy resource …

Blade tip timing (BTT) methods have been increasingly implemented for blade health
monitoring (BHM). However, there are two drawbacks of current signal analysis methods …

Experimentally investigating the vibration characteristics of a pump-jet propulsor in water is
challenging. In this study, the characteristics of flow-induced vibration and acoustic radiation …

The mechanical properties of tissues and cells are increasingly recognized as an important
feature for the understanding of pathological processes and as a diagnostic tool in …

Video cameras are capable to collect high-density spatial data as each pixel is a sensor. An
issue is that the video data is difficult to convert into the motion information, such as …

Cameras can be used as noncontact sensors to measure target vibration conveniently.
Recently, spatial phase-based methods have been developed to detect small vibrations with …

In this paper, the flow-induced vibrations of marine propellers in cyclic inflows are
investigated both experimentally and numerically. A Laser-Doppler velocimetry (LDV) …

Improved efficiency as well as increased lifetime of turbines and compressors are important
goals in turbomachinery development. A significant enhancement to accomplish these aims …

In this paper, a system for the measurement of the instantaneous speed of rotating parts in
turbines is proposed and modeled. The system is based on traditional and widely used …

This paper explores the notion and efficacy of harnessing the advantages of position
sensitive detector (PSD) in the paradigm of noncontact vibration measurements. The study …
