Engineering assets need to be managed, monitored, and maintained effectively if they are to deliver the level of performance that is required. Condition monitoring (CM) is a broad-based technique for effectively managing many aspects of plant, components, transport vehicles, offshore installations, process equipment, and other engineering assets.

Condition Monitoring – Engineering the Practice brings together a wide range of engineering techniques including diagnostic, testing, inspection, analytical, and predictive methods. These combine to offer a valuable tool for those working in a range of different engineering settings.

Chapters focus on:

• •

  condition monitoring in relation to the overall maintenance function;

• •

  the science behind condition monitoring techniques;

• •

  aircraft fleets;

• •

  lubricant analysis in off-shore situations;

• •

  power generation;

• •

  process control in the pharmaceutical industry; and

• •

  residual life prediction.

The wealth of experience in these chapters forms a useful source of information for those considering using condition monitoring, as well as those engineers who are already using this fast-growing technique.
