Publication number: 20230315084Abstract: Methods and systems for fault identification and mitigation in an engine system. A state observer obtains current state information from the engine system, and a feature calculator uses data obtained from the state observer to calculate one or more feature indicators, which are monitored by a health estimator for the occurrence of a change using one or more change probability models. When the health estimator identifies a change, a fault isolator determines a component of the engine system that is subject to fault or health deterioration.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 19, 2023Publication date: October 5, 2023Inventors: Tomas Poloni, Paul Dickinson, Jaroslav Pekar

Patent number: 11434843Abstract: Methods and systems for fault mitigation in an engine system. For ordinary operation, a set of control signals are generated after calculating airflows within the engine system using a set of flow models linked to components of the engine system, while underweighting or omitting an output of a sensor in the engine system. When a fault is identified, the set of flow models is analyzed differently by underweighting or omitting one or more flow models in favor of using the sensor output. By so doing, the engine system can continue to be operated without triggering an on-board diagnostic alert requiring cessation of operation.Type: GrantFiled: May 21, 2021Date of Patent: September 6, 2022Assignee: Garrett Transportation I Inc.Inventors: Lubomir Baramov, Jaroslav Pekar, Paul Dickinson, Tomas Poloni

Patent number: 10851415Abstract: Sepsis remains a leading cause of morbidity and mortality in neonates worldwide. There is also clinically a low threshold for suspicion of infection in neonates, in particular as presentation varies greatly from very subtle to catastrophic collapse. The lack of reliably sensitive tests and the potential life-threatening consequences of delayed treatment of infection results in the widespread use of empirical antibiotics exposing many infants without infection to broad-spectrum antibiotics. The present invention provides a series of patient-invariant biomarkers for screening neonates and other subjects for infection that predicts bacterial infection with high accuracy; and is further shown to have predictive value in identifying infection in suspected cases with blood-culture negative tests.Type: GrantFiled: April 7, 2015Date of Patent: December 1, 2020Assignee: University College Cardiff Consultants LimitedInventors: Peter Ghazal, Paul Dickinson, Thorsten Forster, Claire Smith, Ben Stenson, Mizan Khondoker
