Accelerating seismic energy release and evolution of event time and size statistics: Results from two heterogeneous cellular automaton models

The evolution of event time and size statistics in two heterogeneous cellular automaton models of earthquake behavior are studied and compared to the evolution of these quantities during observed periods of accelerating seismic energy release Drier to large earthquakes. The two automata have different nearest neighbor laws, one of which produces self-organized critical (SOC) behavior (PSD model) and the other which produces quasi-periodic large events (crack model). In the PSD model periods of accelerating energy release before large events are rare. In the crack model, many large events are preceded by periods of accelerating energy release. When compared to randomized event catalogs, accelerating energy release before large events occurs more often than random in the crack model but less often than random in the PSD model; it is easier to tell the crack and PSD model results apart from each other than to tell either model apart from a random catalog. The evolution of event sizes during the accelerating energy release sequences in all models is compared to that of observed sequences. The accelerating energy release sequences in the crack model consist of an increase in the rate of events of all sizes, consistent with observations from a small number of natural cases, however inconsistent with a larger number of cases in which there is an increase in the rate of only moderate-sized events. On average, no increase in the rate of events of any size is seen before large events in the PSD model.

Paineellisten rumpusuodinten kunnossapitostrategian kehittäminen ja implementointi

Tutkimuksen tavoitteena oli luoda UPM-Kymmene Oyj:n Kaukaan sellutehtaalle tuotannolliset näkökulmat huomioiva ja kunnossapitokustannukset optimoiva paineellisten rumpusuodinten kunnossapitostrategia. Paineelliset rumpusuotimet on sellutehtaan kuitulinjan keskeinen laiteryhmä, jonka vuosittaiset kunnossapitokustannukset ovat merkittävät. Tarkastelu työssä keskittyi paineellisen rumpusuotimen päätytiivistyksen kunnossapitostrategian kehittämiseen, koska päätytiivistys muodostaa laitteen vuosittaisista kustannuksista suurimman osan. Kunnossapitokustannusten optimointi suoritettiin strategisen johtamisen periaatteiden mukaisesti eri teknistaloudelliset näkökulmat huomioiden. Kunnossapidon toteutukselle määriteltiin tuotannon tavoitteet, jonka perusteella luotiin uusi kunnossapitostrategia. Työssä tehdyn tutkimuksen perusteella siirtymällä korjaavasta kunnossapidosta ehkäisevään kunnossapitoon, voidaan saavuttaa säästöjä kunnossapitokustannuksissa. Uuden strategian toteutumisen mahdollistamiseksi määriteltiin strategiset projektit, jotka käsittelivät muun muassa uusien tiivistemateriaalien käyttöönottoa, alajärjestelmien muutostöitä sekä toimintatapojen muutoksia. Strategian ja strategisten projektien toteutusta varten laadittiin kirjalliset dokumentit, joiden perusteella implementointi suoritetaan. Toimenpiteille määriteltiin vastuuhenkilöt ja toteutusajat, joiden mukaisesti eri organisaatiotasot toimivat. Strategia laadittiin seuraavalle kymmenelle vuodelle, mutta strategian toteutusta ja tuloksia on seurattava vuosittain. Muuttuvassa liiketoimintaympäristössä kunnossapidon optimitila ei ole staattinen, joten strategiaa on oltava valmis päivittämään. Aktiivisella ja suunnitelmallisella toiminnalla on mahdollista saavuttaa merkittäviä säästöjä tuotannon ja kunnossapidon näkökulmasta.
