      Electrostatic discharge (ESD) can cause catastrophic mechanical damage and lower the life span of an asset if not detected early and rectified. Continuous discharge of static electricity can cause micro pitting of bearing ...
    • Ponnanna, Bopanna Pudiyokada; Yu, John J.; Drygin, Sergey; Peton, Nicolas; Schluter, Steven (Turbomachinery Laboratory, Texas A&M Engineering Experiment Station, 2022)
      This case study outlines how structural vibration was resolved using two different technologies and highlighting secondary issues that can arise due to continued vibration because of structural resonance. Continued high ...
