  • Publication number: 20230354789
    Abstract: An indirect selective breeding method of high-collagen meat geese includes : (1) obtaining a curve equation y=0.017x+0.026; (2) rearing goslings to young geese; (3) measuring the length, width, and height values of the knobs of the geese, and calculating to give the collagen content according to the curve equation obtained in step (1); (4) sorting the geese in descending order according to the collagen content and keeping the geese with collagen content ranked top 50% as breeding geese; (5) after the geese lay eggs, hatching the goose eggs into goslings; and (6) repeating steps (2)-(5) for selective breeding over generations. The indirect selective breeding method is simple and easy to implement. A new strain of meat geese with high collagen content can be obtained from selective breeding simply by measuring the length, width, and height of the knobs of geese of each generation.

  • Publication number: 20230168641
    Abstract: An electronic control module (ECM) on-board a machine executes a reduced-order model configured to generate virtual sensor data associated with a machine component based on sensor data measured by actual sensors. The ECM can also execute a machine learning model configured to generate offset data for the sensor data and/or the virtual sensor data, based on operating conditions, an age of the machine component, and/or other factors that the reduced-order model may not consider. The sensor data and/or the virtual sensor data, adjusted based on the offset data, can indicate whether the machine component has failed or is predicted to fail at a future point in time, and/or a remaining usable life of the machine component.

  • Patent number: 11619670
    Abstract: A detection system for detecting winding faults, such as inter-turn winding faults in the stator and/or rotor of an electrical generator utilizes one or more vibration sensors that can be located on a generator housing. The vibration sensors make mechanical vibration measurements and transmit them to a fault analyzer. The fault analyzer can compare the measured vibrations with a threshold to determine if a winding is occurring. In an embodiment, the fault analyzer can convert the mechanical vibration measurements from the time domain to a frequency domain to facilitate analysis.

  • Patent number: 11428704
    Abstract: A system and method for protecting a genset from pole slip is disclosed. The system may comprise a generator, a prime mover and a controller. The generator includes a stator and a rotor. The prime mover is configured to drive rotation of the rotor. The controller may be configured to: determine mechanical status of the generator based on data associated with a translational displacement of the rotor; determine electrical status of the generator based on (a) a load angle or (b) the load angle and a rate of change of the load angle associated with rotation of the rotor in the stator; determine an operating condition of the generator based on fusion of the mechanical status and the electrical status; if the operating condition is a pole-slip-warning, activate an output member to display or emit a warning; and, if the operating condition is a pole-slip, activate a protective action.
