Several welding processes, or their variations, are used for the deposition of material on a surface, aiming at the recovery of worn parts or for the formation of a coating with special ...

Abstract: Advanced engineering systems possess a large number of components with complicated failure dependencies. To accurately assess the system reliability, the degradation models of components ...

Abstract: In this article, we introduce a novel mixture least squares (MLSs) algorithm to deal with the problems of simultaneous parameter/state and unknown input estimation. First, the MLSs algorithm ...
