Sommario/riassunto

As engineering processes are automated and manpower is reduced, condition monitoring of engineering plants has increased in importance. This is a first edition of this book, written by Taver & Penman was published in 1987. The economics of industry has now changed, as a result of the privatization and deregulation of the energy industry, placing far more emphasis on the importance of the reliable operation of a plant, throughout the whole life-cycle, regardless of first



cost. The availability of advanced electronics and software in powerful instrumentation, computers and Digital Signal Process
