Detecting Loosening of Bolt‐Flanged Pipe Using Smoothed Pseudo Wigner–Ville Distribution: Digital Twin‐Based Approach Using Convolution Neural Networks

International Journal of Mechanical System Dynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In this paper, an integrated digital twin‐based fault‐diagnosis framework is proposed to detect bolt loosening in flanged pipe connections. The approach combines finite element‐based numerical modeling, experimental modal analysis, and advanced signal processing‐assisted deep learning to achieve reliable loosening detection under operational ...

From Wind Turbine Blades to Recycled Glass Fibers: Analytical Modeling and Lab‐Scale Recycling Protocol

Polymer Composites, EarlyView.
Lab‐Scale Composite Dissolution Experiments were used for Prediction of Dissolution Duration. ABSTRACT Glass fiber‐reinforced thermosets are widely used in wind turbine blades. However, recycling these materials remains challenging because thermoset matrices cannot be remelted, and high‐temperature processes degrade glass fibers.
