Sensors, Vol. 18, Pages 3159: Feature Extraction from Indirect Monitoring in Marine Oil Separation Systems Sensors doi: 10.3390/s18093159 Authors: Graciliano Nicolás Marichal Deivis Ávila Ángela Hernández Isidro Padrón Cristina Castejón In this article, a study of characteristic vibrations of marine oils separation system is presented. Vibrations analysis allows for the extraction of representative features that could be related to the lifetime of their pieces. Actual measurements were carried out on these systems on Ro-Pax vessels to transport passengers and freight. The vibrations obtained were processed in the frequency domain and following this, they were used in a Genetic Neuro-Fuzzy System in order to design new predictive maintenance strategies. The obtained results show that these techniques as a promising strategy can be utilized to determine incipient faults.
