Electrical signals dataset from fixed-speed and variable-speed synchronous generators under healthy and faulty conditions.

Proper monitoring of rotating machines is responsible for the efficiency in detecting, diagnosing, or even prognosing failures. Effective monitoring can lead to increased economic viability of any equipment, as it may reduce costly repairs, decrease downtime, and increase safety. Knowing the behaviour of a machine promotes better monitoring of its operation and maintenance.

A rheological approach to identify efficient biopolymer producing bacteria.

This study investigates the relationship between collective motion and propulsion of bacterial consortia and their biopolymer production efficiency. Rheological tests were conducted for suspensions of two different methanotrophic bacterial consortia obtained after enrichment of sediment samples from mangrove sites in Brazil. We considered the linear viscoelasticity region and analyzed the values of storage and loss moduli as functions of days of cultivation, for different values of the volume fraction.
