Abstract
An engine includes a gearbox coupled to a first element and a second element. The engine may include a first speed sensor positioned on an input side of the gearbox, the first speed sensor operable to detect a first speed of the first element. The engine may further include a second speed sensor positioned on an output side of the gearbox, the second speed sensor operable to detect a second speed of the second element. The engine includes a controller comprising a processor and a memory coupled to the processor. The processor may be configured to receive data from the first speed sensor and the second speed sensor. The processor is also configured to detect a trigger event based on the data from the first speed sensor and the data from the second speed sensor. Upon detecting the trigger event, the processor communicates a command to an engine operational system.
