The economics of reducing the cost of energy by 13% revenuesSentient Science
At what “speed” is your digitalization effort? There is no dispute, digitalization will play a key role in improving the sustainability of renewable energy sources through efficiency. The question remains – Where are you? While the industry has embraced the importance, water cooler conversations continue - How to monetize the true value of the data from digitalization?
The webinar outlines:
• How digitalization is applied across all corporate business units: asset management, operations management, risk management and supply chain management to reduce the cost of energy by up to 13%
• An industry operator case study on monetizing your digitalization efforts and understand the true ROI
• A digitalization value statement to enable operations management can provide a short-term watch list from 0-12 months enabling early detection prior to consequential damage beyond an operator's current capabilities – attributes to 2-3% of cost avoidance or cost savings.

Over the past 15 years Potential Difference Inc. has been developing an innovation for electric vehicles (EVs) that will allow all EVs to recharge themselves as they drive. The innovation is called Regenerative Acceleration (ReGenX). Regenerative Acceleration is the exact opposite of regenerative braking which is currently used in EVs to recharge the EV’s batteries while decelerating the EV.

Investigating Microstructural Alterations Leading to White Etch Cracks (WEC's...Sentient Science
This webinar outlines Sentient's development on their White Etching Crack capabilities to current materials-based prognostics life prediction models to better predict wind turbine gearbox life.
The formation of white etching cracks (WEC's) in bearings are known to be one of the major failure modes associated with gearbox failure. WEC's can casue premature failures in rolling element bearings occuring as early as 1-20% of the calculated L10 life.
According to the National Renewable Energy Laboratory's (NREL) gearbox failure database, 64% of gearboxes failed due to bearings and 25% due to gear failures. These failures are causing increased downtime and costly repairs.
The webinar outlines microstructrual alterations detected in LSIS and HSIS bearings and how microstructural alterations impact damage in gearboxes.
Today, Wind Turbine OEMS utilize design load cases for the design and certification of wind turbines. These load cases are applied to ensure that turbines operate in a stochastic environment for at least 20 years.
However, reliability analysis should not stop at the design stage. Once a turbine is commissioned, consequent reliability analysis should also be conducted in order to understand how long a turbine will truly last at an installed location with the exposed environmental conditions.

http://sentientscience.com/resource-library/videos/webinar-recordings/wind-load-analysis-drivetrain-reliability/
According to a report by Windpower Engineering & Development, the cost to repair main bearings is one of the highest compared to other turbine systems ranging from $150,000 to $300,000. As fielded turbines age, the aggregated downtime has increased to more than 20,000 hours.
The presentation features:
- New capabilities in the DigitalClone Live software that predict early wear initiation in the main bearing raceways and rollers.
- How to understand the current health of the main bearing in a particular asset to mitigate damage prior to failure.
- How to reduce the cost of repair, currently ranging from $150K - $300K for each occurrence, and reduce the amount of downtime.

Demonstration on How to Extend the Life a 1.5MW Class GearboxSentient Science
Sentient Science demonstrate it’s computational prognostics and life extension solution for the GE 1.5MW class gearbox with a discussion regarding up-tower component replacement options, impact of up-rating on gearbox life, and general failure rates off warranty.
Utilizing Predictive Modeling for Bearing Supplier Decision MakingSentient Science
Machinery OEMs often have to choose between different bearing suppliers when designing a new device. Although the same bearing model from different suppliers may have the same external form factor and load rating, there are often differences in internal geometry, material quality, and surface treatment from one supplier to another that will cause the performance and expected life to vary in the field.
These slides will outline Sentient Science’s approach towards measuring and quantifying these hidden bearing parameters. We show how we combine material, geometry, and surface treatment metrics into high-fidelity predictive models which we use to help OEMs decide which bearing supplier to choose for their application.

Comparing Replacement Components to Extend the Life of GearboxesSentient Science
Making the right decisions on the sub-component gears and bearings in your gearbox bill of materials is critical to maximize life. However, operators, OEMs, and suppliers face uncertainty of the life extension benefits of one component versus another without heavy investment into hardware testing. This presentation will outline how Virtual Supplier Qualification can help determine the best cost/benefit between suppliers for gearbox component replacements by leveraging High Performance Computing, multi-physics prognostic models, and simulations and data analytics.

CFD Simulation of By-pass Flow in a HRSG module by R&R Consult.pptxR&R Consult
CFD analysis is incredibly effective at solving mysteries and improving the performance of complex systems!
Here's a great example: At a large natural gas-fired power plant, where they use waste heat to generate steam and energy, they were puzzled that their boiler wasn't producing as much steam as expected.
R&R and Tetra Engineering Group Inc. were asked to solve the issue with reduced steam production.
An inspection had shown that a significant amount of hot flue gas was bypassing the boiler tubes, where the heat was supposed to be transferred.
R&R Consult conducted a CFD analysis, which revealed that 6.3% of the flue gas was bypassing the boiler tubes without transferring heat. The analysis also showed that the flue gas was instead being directed along the sides of the boiler and between the modules that were supposed to capture the heat. This was the cause of the reduced performance.
Based on our results, Tetra Engineering installed covering plates to reduce the bypass flow. This improved the boiler's performance and increased electricity production.
It is always satisfying when we can help solve complex challenges like this. Do your systems also need a check-up or optimization? Give us a call!
Work done in cooperation with James Malloy and David Moelling from Tetra Engineering.

Immunizing Image Classifiers Against Localized Adversary Attacksgerogepatton
This paper addresses the vulnerability of deep learning models, particularly convolutional neural networks
(CNN)s, to adversarial attacks and presents a proactive training technique designed to counter them. We
introduce a novel volumization algorithm, which transforms 2D images into 3D volumetric representations.
When combined with 3D convolution and deep curriculum learning optimization (CLO), itsignificantly improves
the immunity of models against localized universal attacks by up to 40%. We evaluate our proposed approach
using contemporary CNN architectures and the modified Canadian Institute for Advanced Research (CIFAR-10
and CIFAR-100) and ImageNet Large Scale Visual Recognition Challenge (ILSVRC12) datasets, showcasing
accuracy improvements over previous techniques. The results indicate that the combination of the volumetric
input and curriculum learning holds significant promise for mitigating adversarial attacks without necessitating
adversary training.
