Predicting well site failure modes and times using machine learning analytics and dynacard classifications
Systems and methods for real-time monitoring and control of well operations at a well site use machine learning (ML) based analytics at the well site. The systems and methods perform ML-based analytics on data from the well site via an edge device directly at the well site to detect operations that fall outside expected norms and automatically respond to such abnormal operations. The edge device can issue alerts regarding the abnormal operations and take predefined steps to reduce potential damage resulting from such abnormal operations. The edge device can also anticipate failures and a time to failure by performing ML-based analytics on operations data from the well site using normal operations data. This can help decrease downtime and minimize lost productivity and cost as well as reduce health and safety risks for field personnel.
Diagnostic method for localizing technical faults in a motion system
A diagnostic method localizes technical faults in a motion system that includes a base adapted to receive a motion stage for equipment, a machine frame resting on the floor, dampers adapted to support the base, and an active isolation system arranged between the base and the machine frame. The active isolation system and the base form a mechanical system. The active isolation system includes actuators, adapted to impart six degree-of-freedom (DOF) motion to the base in a reference frame, and inertial sensors adapted to provide a six DOF measurement of the base's motion. The method includes: i) applying a control signal for actuating or contributing to the actuation of the actuators of the active isolation system to impart a motion to the base; ii) obtaining, with the inertial sensors, a six DOF measurement of the base's motion relative to a reference point; iii) creating a measured process sensitivity matrix of the mechanical system using the six DOF measurement; and iv) determining, based on the measured process sensitivity matrix, whether all the actuators and sensors of the active isolation system are working as expected and/or whether there is a pivot point impeding the movement of the base.
Vehicle fault diagnostic method and on-board diagnostic apparatus
A vehicle diagnostics technology is provided. Further, a vehicle fault diagnostic method, an on-board diagnostic apparatus, and a related system that are used for advanced intelligent driving are provided. In an example method, a first diagnostic module monitors and records first fault information, and a second diagnostic module monitors and records second fault information. The second diagnostic module sends the second fault information to the first diagnostic module. The example method further includes the first diagnostic module communicating with a master computer through a first communication interface and the second diagnostic module communicating with the master computer through a second communication interface.
AUTONOMOUS LANDSCAPING SYSTEM
A method for operating a landscaping device is disclosed. The method includes receiving by a landscaping device controller a task assignment for a landscaping task to be performed at a job site. Also, receiving at the landscaping device a task pattern for operation of the landscaping task, where the task pattern comprises a plurality of waypoints at the job site and one or more control signals for operation of the landscaping device. The method further includes controlling one or more motors based on the one or more control signals to complete the landscaping task.
