  • Publication number: 20210318207
    Abstract: One embodiment provides a method, including: receiving, from at least one sensor operatively coupled to a mechanical device, sensor data corresponding to a function of the mechanical device; accessing, from an environmental database, information regarding at least one environmental condition in proximity to a geographical location of the mechanical device; generating, using a processor, a correlative value for the mechanical device, wherein the correlative value identifies a correlation between the sensor data corresponding to a function of the mechanical device and the at least one environmental condition; assigning the correlative value as a baseline correlative value to the mechanical device; monitoring the sensor data corresponding to a function of the mechanical device and the at least one environmental condition and updating the correlative value; identifying, using a processor, the correlative value for the mechanical device has exceeded a predetermined threshold as compared to the baseline correlative

  • Publication number: 20180238773
    Abstract: One embodiment provides a method, including: identifying at least one similar mechanical device from a plurality of candidate mechanical devices, wherein the at least one similar mechanical device comprises a mechanical device having at least a subset of characteristics and at least a subset of geographical information similar to the mechanical device; receiving, from a sensor operatively coupled to the mechanical device, sensor data providing information regarding a characteristic related to a mechanical function of the mechanical device; comparing the sensor data of the mechanical device to sensor data of the at least one similar mechanical device; identifying an abnormal operating condition of the mechanical device, wherein the identifying the abnormal operating condition comprises determining the sensor data of the mechanical device is outside a predetermined range threshold; and notifying a user of the identified abnormal operating condition.
