- Description: Electrical power grids comprise a significantly large number of transformers that interconnect power generation, transmission and distribution. These transformers having different MVA ratings are critical assets that require proper maintenance to provide long and uninterrupted electrical service. The mineral oil, an essential component of any transformer, not only provides cooling but also acts as an insulating medium within the transformer. The quality and the key dissolved properties of insulating mineral oil for the transformer are critical with its proper and reliable operation. However, traditional chemical diagnostic methods are expensive and time-consuming. A transformer oil image analysis approach, based on the entropy value of oil, which is inexpensive, effective and quick. However, the inability of entropy to estimate the vital transformer oil properties such as equivalent age, Neutralization Number (NN), dissipation factor (tanδ) and power factor (PF); and many intuitively derived constants usage limit its estimation accuracy. To address this issue, in this paper, we introduce an innovative transformer oil analysis using two deep convolutional learning techniques such as Convolutional Neural Network (ConvNet) and Residual Neural Network (ResNet). These two deep neural networks are chosen for this project as they have superior performance in computer vision. After estimating the equivalent aging year of transformer oil from its image by our proposed method, NN, tanδ and PF are computed using that estimated age. Our deep learning based techniques can accurately predict the transformer oil equivalent age, leading to calculate NN, tanδ and PF more accurately. The root means square error of estimated equivalent age produced by entropy, ConvNet and ResNet based methods are 0.718, 0.122 and 0.065, respectively. ConvNet and ResNet based methods have reduced the error of the oil age estimation by 83% and 91%, respectively compared to that of the entropy method. Our proposed oil image analysis can calculate the equivalent age that is very close to the actual age for all images used in the experiment. © 2019 IEEE.

- Description: Technological changes have been happening in production facilities including food manufacturing industries in an ever-increasing rate. This includes advancement in data capture devices, signal processing, communication capabilities and automated process control systems such as Internet of Things. It is more challenging where production systems are highly reliant on automation and robotics. Remote performance monitoring and controls are becoming progressively vulnerable due to risks associated with cyber security and corporate espionage. May 2021 cyber-Attack forced JBS meats USA to pay 11m in ransom money to stop any further disruptions in services. This heavily impacted JBS global operations including JBS Australian food manufacturing facilities. Food production facilities in Australia have critical control points supported by smart technologies as part of their food safety management systems. Cyber-Attacks on production facilities could result in financial, operational, health and safety consequences. As survey by the Australian Cyber Security Centre in 2020 revealed that Australian small businesses are impacted by cybercime each year with a loss of 300m. To present the potential cyber security threats and their associated risk level, a case study is presented based on the processing and manufacture of meat products in Australia. From this case study, to protect the meat industries from attacks, we identify cyber security attacks and their possible mitigation strategies. This research shows cyber security attacks can severely affect Overall Equipment Effectiveness which motivate us to embed cyber security as an additional pillar in existing 8 pillars Total Productive Maintenance. If cyber security is added as additional pillar, it will improve the quality of end products and overall productivity of manufacturing industries. © 2021 IEEE.
