Fault detection in rotating machinery using acoustic emission

This thesis was submitted for the award of Doctor of Philosophy and was awarded by Brunel University LondonRotating machinery is a critical asset of industrial plants worldwide. Bearings and gearboxes are two of the most common components found in rotating machinery of industrial plants. The malfunction of bearings and gearboxes lead the machine to fail and often these failures occur catastrophically leading to personnel injuries. Therefore it is of high importance to identify the deterioration at an early stage. Among the techniques applied to detect damage in rotating machinery, acoustic emission has been a prevalent field of research for its potential to detect defects at an earlier stage than other more established techniques such as vibration analysis and oil analysis. However, to reliably detect the fault at an early stage de-noising techniques often must be applied to reduce the AE noise generated by neighbouring components and normal component operation. For this purpose a novel signal processing algorithm has been developed combining Wavelet Packets as a pre-processor, Hilbert Transform, Autocorrelation function and Fast Fourier transform. The combination of these techniques allows identification of g repetitive patterns in the AE signal that are attributable to bearing and gear damage. The enhancement for early stage defect detection in bearings and gears provided by this method is beneficial in planning maintenance in advance, reducing machinery down-time and consequently reducing the costs associated with bearing breakdown. The effectiveness of the proposed method has been investigated experimentally using seeded and naturally developed defects in gears and bearings. In addition, research into the optimal Wavelet Packet node that offers the best de-noising results has been performed showing that the 250-750 kHz band gives the best SNR results. The detection of shaft angular misalignment using Acoustic Emission has been investigated and compared with acceleration spectra. The results obtained show enhancements of AE in detection shaft angular misalignment over vibration analysis in SNR and stability with varying operational conditions

Discrete Wavelet Transforms

The discrete wavelet transform (DWT) algorithms have a firm position in processing of signals in several areas of research and industry. As DWT provides both octave-scale frequency and spatial timing of the analyzed signal, it is constantly used to solve and treat more and more advanced problems. The present book: Discrete Wavelet Transforms: Algorithms and Applications reviews the recent progress in discrete wavelet transform algorithms and applications. The book covers a wide range of methods (e.g. lifting, shift invariance, multi-scale analysis) for constructing DWTs. The book chapters are organized into four major parts. Part I describes the progress in hardware implementations of the DWT algorithms. Applications include multitone modulation for ADSL and equalization techniques, a scalable architecture for FPGA-implementation, lifting based algorithm for VLSI implementation, comparison between DWT and FFT based OFDM and modified SPIHT codec. Part II addresses image processing algorithms such as multiresolution approach for edge detection, low bit rate image compression, low complexity implementation of CQF wavelets and compression of multi-component images. Part III focuses watermaking DWT algorithms. Finally, Part IV describes shift invariant DWTs, DC lossless property, DWT based analysis and estimation of colored noise and an application of the wavelet Galerkin method. The chapters of the present book consist of both tutorial and highly advanced material. Therefore, the book is intended to be a reference text for graduate students and researchers to obtain state-of-the-art knowledge on specific applications

An enhanced Teager Huang transform technique for bearing fault detection

Rolling element bearings are widely used in rotating machinery. Bearing health condition monitoring plays a vital role in predictive maintenance to recognize bearing faults at an early stage to prevent machinery performance degradation, improve operation quality, and reduce maintenance costs. Although many signal processing techniques have been proposed in literature for bearing fault diagnosis, reliable bearing fault detection remains challenging. This study aims to develop an online condition monitoring system and a signal processing technique for bearing fault detection. Firstly, a Zigbee-based smart sensor data acquisition system is developed for wireless vibration signal collection. An enhanced Teager-Huang transform (eTHT) technique is proposed for bearing fault detection. The eTHT takes the several processing steps: Firstly, a generalized Teager-Kaiser spectrum analysis method is suggested to recognize the most representative intrinsic mode functions as a reference. Secondly, a characteristic relation function is constructed by using cross-correlation. Thirdly, a denoising filter is adopted to improve the signal-to-noise-ratio. Finally, the average generalized Teager-Kaiser spectrum analysis is undertaken to identify the bearing characteristic signatures for bearing fault detection. The effectiveness of the proposed eTHT technique is examined by experimental tests corresponding to different bearing conditions. Its robustness in bearing fault detection is examined by the use of the data sets from a different experimental setup

Design techniques for smart and energy-efficient wireless body sensor networks

Tesis inédita de la Universidad Complutense de Madrid, Facultad de Informática, Departamento de Arquitectura de Computadores y Automática, leída el 26/10/2012Las redes inalámbricas de sensores corporales (en inglés: "wireless body sensor networks" o WBSNs) para monitorización, diagnóstico y detección de emergencias, están ganando popularidad y están llamadas a cambiar profundamente la asistencia sanitaria en los próximos años. El uso de estas redes permite una supervisión continua, contribuyendo a la prevención y el diagnóstico precoz de enfermedades, al tiempo que mejora la autonomía del paciente con respecto a otros sistemas de monitorización actuales. Valiéndose de esta tecnología, esta tesis propone el desarrollo de un sistema de monitorización de electrocardiograma (ECG), que no sólo muestre continuamente el ECG del paciente, sino que además lo analice en tiempo real y sea capaz de dar información sobre el estado del corazón a través de un dispositivo móvil. Esta información también puede ser enviada al personal médico en tiempo real. Si ocurre un evento peligroso, el sistema lo detectará automáticamente e informará de inmediato al paciente y al personal médico, posibilitando una rápida reacción en caso de emergencia. Para conseguir la implementación de dicho sistema, se desarrollan y optimizan distintos algoritmos de procesamiento de ECG en tiempo real, que incluyen filtrado, detección de puntos característicos y clasificación de arritmias. Esta tesis también aborda la mejora de la eficiencia energética de la red de sensores, cumpliendo con los requisitos de fidelidad y rendimiento de la aplicación. Para ello se proponen técnicas de diseño para reducir el consumo de energía, que permitan buscar un compromiso óptimo entre el tamaño de la batería y su tiempo de vida. Si el consumo de energía puede reducirse lo suficiente, sería posible desarrollar una red que funcione permanentemente. Por lo tanto, el muestreo, procesamiento, almacenamiento y transmisión inalámbrica tienen que hacerse de manera que se suministren todos los datos relevantes, pero con el menor consumo posible de energía, minimizando así el tamaño de la batería (que condiciona el tamaño total del nodo) y la frecuencia de recarga de la batería (otro factor clave para su usabilidad). Por lo tanto, para lograr una mejora en la eficiencia energética del sistema de monitorización y análisis de ECG propuesto en esta tesis, se estudian varias soluciones a nivel de control de acceso al medio y sistema operativo.Depto. de Arquitectura de Computadores y AutomáticaFac. de InformáticaTRUEunpu

Runtime Hardware Reconfiguration in Wireless Sensor Networks for Condition Monitoring

The integration of miniaturized heterogeneous electronic components has enabled the deployment of tiny sensing platforms empowered by wireless connectivity known as wireless sensor networks. Thanks to an optimized duty-cycled activity, the energy consumption of these battery-powered devices can be reduced to a level where several years of operation is possible. However, the processing capability of currently available wireless sensor nodes does not scale well with the observation of phenomena requiring a high sampling resolution. The large amount of data generated by the sensors cannot be handled efficiently by low-power wireless communication protocols without a preliminary filtering of the information relevant for the application. For this purpose, energy-efficient, flexible, fast and accurate processing units are required to extract important features from the sensor data and relieve the operating system from computationally demanding tasks. Reconfigurable hardware is identified as a suitable technology to fulfill these requirements, balancing implementation flexibility with performance and energy-efficiency. While both static and dynamic power consumption of field programmable gate arrays has often been pointed out as prohibitive for very-low-power applications, recent programmable logic chips based on non-volatile memory appear as a potential solution overcoming this constraint. This thesis first verifies this assumption with the help of a modular sensor node built around a field programmable gate array based on Flash technology. Short and autonomous duty-cycled operation combined with hardware acceleration efficiently drop the energy consumption of the device in the considered context. However, Flash-based devices suffer from restrictions such as long configuration times and limited resources, which reduce their suitability for complex processing tasks. A template of a dynamically reconfigurable architecture built around coarse-grained reconfigurable function units is proposed in a second part of this work to overcome these issues. The module is conceived as an overlay of the sensor node FPGA increasing the implementation flexibility and introducing a standardized programming model. Mechanisms for virtual reconfiguration tailored for resource-constrained systems are introduced to minimize the overhead induced by this genericity. The definition of this template architecture leaves room for design space exploration and application- specific customization. Nevertheless, this aspect must be supported by appropriate design tools which facilitate and automate the generation of low-level design files. For this purpose, a software tool is introduced to graphically configure the architecture and operation of the hardware accelerator. A middleware service is further integrated into the wireless sensor network operating system to bridge the gap between the hardware and the design tools, enabling remote reprogramming and scheduling of the hardware functionality at runtime. At last, this hardware and software toolchain is applied to real-world wireless sensor network deployments in the domain of condition monitoring. This category of applications often require the complex analysis of signals in the considered range of sampling frequencies such as vibrations or electrical currents, making the proposed system ideally suited for the implementation. The flexibility of the approach is demonstrated by taking examples with heterogeneous algorithmic specifications. Different data processing tasks executed by the sensor node hardware accelerator are modified at runtime according to application requests
