Cement production is an energy-intensive process, so that the cement industry occupies a top position among other energy-consuming industries. Among the equipment used in cement industries, boilers are one of the energy-consuming equipment. Boilers are among the common heating equipment in industrial, commercial, and institutional facilities. In this paper, the performance of thermal oil bo...

The detection probability of visible light reconnaissance equipment is one of key indexes to assess the performance of the system. The detection probability is determined by many factors, such as atmospheric visibility, target-background contrast, target size and distance, solar elevation angle etc. Based on the detection probability model of the visible light reconnaissance equipment to gain t...

Abstract—The performance of the tightening equipment will decline with the working process in manufacturing system. The main manifestations are the randomness and discretization degree increasing of the tightening performance. To evaluate the degradation tendency of the tightening performance accurately, a complexity measurement approach based on Kolmogorov entropy is presented. At first, the s...
