Description
Summary:The aim of this paper is to diagnose the faults that occurred in rotating machinery. Pattern recognition technique was implemented using three main steps of fault diagnosis; feature extraction, dimensionality reduction and fault classification. This paper focuses on the faulty bearing which mainly caused by mass imbalance and axis misalignment. Vibration signal that obtained from the rotating machinery is extracted by using non-parametric or parametric method to get the power spectrum density (PSD). Principal Component Analysis (PCA) is then introduced to reduce the complexity as well as smooth the classification process. By analyzing the vibration signal obtained from the test rigs (rigs that are built to demonstrate the effect of faults in rotating machinery), it gives solid information concerning any faults within the rotating machinery.
