Zusammenfassung:Certain embodiments of the invention may include systems, methods, and apparatus for detecting failure in gas turbine hardware. According to an example embodiment of the invention, a method 400 for detecting a failure in a gas turbine is provided. The method can include monitoring 402 a parameter associated with the turbine, wherein the monitored parameter comprises at least one turbine bucket temperature, detecting an event 404 associated with operation of the turbine, wherein the event is based at least in part on the monitored parameter, and initiating shutdown 406 of the turbine upon detection of the event wherein the monitored parameter is above a predetermined value for at least a predetermined time duration.
