The aim of the work deals with the problem of develop and implement a software based tool to monitor thermal and mechanical aspects and detect load severity on journal bearings deciding the property action in Marine Diesel Engines, using advanced aspects of functional and hardware redundancy applied on fault detection, fault isolation, decision making and system recovery without applying on-line vibration monitoring of main and crankshaft bearings. To achieve such objectives, functional redundant back-propagation neutral networks are used as universal functional approximation devices in combination with rule based strategies to find specific variables and process parameter changes useful in decision-making.
