“…ES utilize domain expert knowledge employing to emulate decision-making ability of a human, perform and exhibit reasoning for problem-solving, hence advancing maintenance support. ES has been used for LCM data interpretation as developed by [149,183] , to automate intelligently the classification process of wear particle [160] , estimate the quality of oil [184], to evolve EXCARE system for maintenance of lubricants in service [77] and in a lubricant monitoring and diagnostics case study using computer-aided wear particle analysis software [185]. In a study in conjunction with a different condition monitoring technique, ES was applied using data from wear debris from oil and vibrational analysis by [186].…”
