Complex Simulations made accessible

How CITRUS Works…

At the heart of CITRUS lies an innovative system of neural networks, trained extensively on the outcomes of finite element (FE) simulations. These simulations, known for their precision, predict a wide range of parameters such as internal stresses, damages, temperatures, and more, based on component-specific material properties and load cases.

Traditionally, FE simulations are renowned for their accuracy but are often impractical for real-time decision-making due to their long computational times.

CITRUS bridges this gap.

Our neural networks which are pre-trained on FE simulations can rapidly interpret incoming sensor data from components, transforming this data into actionable insights such as damage, stress levels, and estimated component lifetimes.

CITRUS Summary

  • Highly precise and accurate neural networks.

  • CITRUS can be used both on- or offline and be either onsite or cloud based.

The CITRUS Difference

In an era where the efficiency and reliability of industrial operations are paramount, CITRUS emerges as a groundbreaking solution that transforms how plant maintenance and operational integrity are approached. By harnessing the power of advanced AI techniques, CITRUS democratizes the access to sophisticated physics-based life assessment models, making them a practical tool for real-time decision-making in plant management. This innovative platform not only enhances the predictive maintenance capabilities of businesses but also significantly contributes to improved safety and compliance outcomes.

Below are the key features and unique selling points (USPs) that set CITRUS apart in the landscape of industrial maintenance and operational efficiency:

  • Accessible Physics-Based Models:

    CITRUS leverages advanced AI to make complex physics-based life assessment models accessible and usable in plant environments, enabling detailed insights into equipment health and lifespan.

  • Scalability Across Geometries:

    The platform can easily scale its predictions from one monitored geometry to others, allowing for a broadened monitoring coverage without added complexity, which is critical for comprehensive plant integrity management.

  • Emulation of Critical Material Volumes:

    CITRUS has the unique capability to emulate critical volumes of materials, such as through a welded joint, providing essential guidance on where, when, and how to inspect, thereby optimizing maintenance strategies.

  • Harmony with Conventional Inspections:

    It enhances safety and compliance outcomes, especially when used alongside findings from outages, emphasizing that CITRUS should operate in concert with traditional inspection methods.

  • Translating Alerts into Actionable Insights:

    Unlike conventional software that may only alert to unusual conditions, CITRUS translates these alerts into direct implications for component damage and lifespan reduction, offering a level of insight previously unavailable.

  • Custom-Tailored Neural Networks:

    The AI neural networks powering CITRUS are specifically designed for each type of component it monitors, ensuring predictions are highly accurate and reflective of real-world component behaviour under various conditions.

  • Independence from Historical Operational Data:

    A significant breakthrough of CITRUS is its ability to function effectively without relying on historical data, sidestepping common data quality issues and enabling immediate, valuable insights from day one.

Transform Your Operations with CITRUS

CITRUS not only provides information regarding component condition, but also empowers you to act decisively to enhance their reliability and longevity. By avoiding extremes and optimising operations based on CITRUS insights, component maintenance becomes less reactive and more proactive improving maintenance and operational efficiency. This proactive approach is enhanced by CITRUS’s unique scenario mode, which allows users to input anticipated future operational data showing how the components are expected to perform.

Moreover, CITRUS’s scenario mode enables users to determine how much their components can be pushed in terms of performance or how operations can be adjusted while maintaining high efficiency. This feature offers a dual advantage of maximising operational output without compromising component health and identifying opportunities to reduce operational intensity without losing efficiency. It allows for a fine-tuned balance between pushing for performance and conserving resources, ensuring that every decision is backed by comprehensive insights into potential impacts on component longevity and system efficiency.
