Development of Event-Based Data Acquisition for Acoustic Emission Monitoring of the Structural Integrity of Wind Turbine Blades [Slides]

DOE Alignment: Reduce the cost of floating offshore wind energy in deep waters to $45/MWh by 2035 from today’s estimated $150/MWh20 by: Developing operations and maintenance strategies and increasing wind turbine reliability to reduce periods of non-operation and reduce labor at sea through remote system health monitoring, inspection, and maintenance capabilities incorporating artificial intelligence and predictive maintenance.

Commissioning of the Mu2e Data AcQuisition System and the Vertical Slice Test of the Straw Tracker

The report discusses the commissioning of the DAQ system of the Mu2e experiment. We studied how the tracker works and especially the tracker readout. We used a generator to send pulses and we tried to understand the output and non-output of the DTC, in order to validate the event and run format and all the failure modes. In section one, we describe Charged Lepton Flavour Violation, the main purpose of Mu2e, in section two we describe Mu2e experiment. Section three presents the tracker description and readout, meanwhile section four the DAQ system and event building. In section five, we start explaining the analysis we have done on events and all the failure modes we discovered. In section six, we have done an analysis of the logger and boardreader rate, we validated the generator frequency in section seven and studied the number of hits in function of the channel number in section eight. To conclude we investigated the channel to channel time differences in section nine and in section ten we explain our Monte Carlo simulation, reproducing ROCs readout.

Software and Hardware Development for the Mu2e Trigger and Data Acquisition System

The Mu2e experiment at Fermilab will be 10,000 times more sensitive than previous experiments looking for muon-to-electron conversion. This precise and complex experimental apparatus will produce 200 million billion muons per year. The accelerator complex repurposes elements of the infrastructure that produced high energy proton and anti-protons beams for the Tevatron experiments to produce the high-intensity muon beams necessary for Mu2e and the Muon (g-2) experiments.

Estimation of Large-Scale Wind Field Characteristics Using Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition Measurements

As the wind energy industry continues to push for increased power production and lower cost of energy, the focus of research has expanded from individual turbines to entire wind farms. Among a host of interesting problems to be solved when considering the wind farm as a whole, we consider the challenge of scalar field estimation, based on information already collected at the individual turbine level. We aim to estimate the large-scale, low-frequency characteristics of the wind field, such as the mean wind direction and the overall decrease in wind speed across the farm, and employ a Kalman filter that models the wind field using a polynomial function. We compare the proposed method’s performance to both a simple averaging technique and filtering of individual turbine measurements. The method presented is not limited to wind turbines and is applicable in other situations where multiple remote agents are used to estimate a scalar field.
