This paper presents a novel approach to diagnosing faults in reciprocating compressor valves. Based on easily available vibration data, a transformation to a high-dimensional vector space is performed ...

There was once a glorious time in vehicular history when seemingly everyone was obsessed with gas turbines. These smooth engines promised lots of power in a smaller package when compared to piston ...

Piston rings are small, but they play an essential role in the performance of internal combustion engines, and their engineering is nothing short of brilliant. These cleverly designed components ...

Dozens of companies and awards programs recognize new product innovations. The following five stand out. All five competitions are global with equal access. Any size company can afford to enter ...

Direct-drive linear reciprocating compressors offer numerous advantages over conventional counterparts which are usually driven by a rotary induction motor via a crank shaft. However, to ensure ...
