Abstract: A system may include a device. The device may be configured to receive machine vibration data identifying a measure of vibration of a machine. The vibration, of the machine, may be caused by a combination of first vibration caused by a motion of components of an undercarriage of the machine and second vibration that is unrelated to the first vibration. The device may be configured to identify a segment, of the machine vibration data, corresponding to the first vibration; transform the segment, using a Fast Fourier Transform (FFT), into a signal in a frequency domain; and analyze the signal to identify a signature spectrum associated with the motion of components. The device may be configured to predict, based on the signature spectrum, an amount of wear of the components. The device may be configured to cause an action to be performed based on the amount of wear of the components.

Abstract: Segmented echo planar nuclear magnetic resonance imaging is performed using an iterative correction method that corrects or suppresses geometric distortion in the image domain caused by off-resonance phase discontinuities in the phase encoding direction. The iterative correction method can be performed in a single scan by providing extra gradients in the pulse sequence to generate an extra transverse magnetization echo from the pulse. Additionally, the iterative correction method can be performed using a separate non-segmented double-echo scan in combination with data obtained using a conventional segmented echo planar imaging pulse sequence.

Abstract: A method of complex image reconstruction from partially acquired data in two or more dimensions is presented. This method uses an iterative multidimensional transformation to reconstruct a magnetic resonance image. The method of this invention abandons the theory that complex conjugation is necessary to reconstruct a complex image from partially acquired data and, instead, utilizes a phase constraint to make the solution determinable using a multidimensional transformation technique. This method of image reconstruction allows magnetic resonance images to be reconstructed by acquiring only one-half of the k-space data.
