A monitoring apparatus for a doctoring comprises a vibration sensor which is individual and is attached at a discrete location of a doctor blade arrangement, the at least one vibration sensor converting a mechanical vibration of the doctor blade arrangement to an electrical signal, the mechanical vibration being caused by the doctor blade in response to a scraping operation of a rotating roll which is in contact with a moving web. A data processing unit receives the electrical signal carrying information on the vibration, compares said vibration with a reference of at least one previous measurement of a same grade of the web, and start one or more preventive actions in order to avoid a drop-through in the case said vibration exceeds at least one boundary of the reference.

A method for automatic diagnosis of a mechanical system of a group of mechanical systems sharing mechanical characteristics includes obtaining data relating to a vibration. The vibration-related data is acquired by a portable communications device configured to communicate with a remote processor. The processor automatically diagnoses the mechanical system by applying a relationship to the obtained vibration-related data. The relationship is based on sets of vibration-related data previously obtained from the mechanical systems. Each set of vibration-related data relates to vibrations of a mechanical system. The relationship is further based on sets of operation data previously obtained for mechanical systems of the group. Each set of operation data indicates a previous state of operation of a mechanical system. Each of the previous states of operation is associated with at least one of the previously obtained sets of vibration-related data.

Provided are an analyzing device and the like capable of suppressing erroneous determination. This analyzing device is provided with: a cross correlation calculating unit that obtains a cross correlation function with respect to vibrations detected at two points contained in a measurement sector of a pipeline; an estimating unit that estimates a cause of the vibrations, on the basis of the continuity of peaks in the cross correlation function; and an analyzing unit that analyzes the actual generation location of the vibrations and cause of the vibrations on the basis of an estimated generation location of the vibrations and cause of the vibrations and information relating to the configuration of a pipeline network.

A vibration dose measurement apparatus 10 for an operator's hand 1 comprises a sensing assembly 20 connected to a control unit 25. The sensing assembly 20 comprises an accelerometer 21, gyroscope 22, and gripping force sensor 23 and may be packaged within a protective housing (not shown). By monitoring output of the sensor assembly 20, the vibration dose experienced by the hand 1 can be estimated. In the present invention, the provision of gripping force sensor 23 allows for vibration dose measurement to be adjusted based on the output of gripping force sensor 23. This can therefore take into account the force applied by an operator in gripping machinery, which can impact significantly on the effective vibration dose.

A system for an electro magnetic oscillator tube with enhanced isotopes is disclosed herein having at least one magnetron layer. Each layer has a first magnet, a conduction block, and a second magnet of opposite polarity. The conduction block is disposed in a plane about an emitter of isotopic particles, where an opposite electrical polarity relative to the emitter forms between the emitter and the conduction block.
