Condition Monitoring of Variable Speed Machinery
Introduction
• Monitoring of machinery
  largely limited to constant
  conditions
• Changes in speed and load
  termed ‘nuisance
  parameters’
• Variable speed/load
  machinery ubiquitous          Ref: Stack

• Resonances/vibration
  power
Novelty Detection
• Limited data
  characterizing normal
  state
   – Little or no data for
     abnormal states
• Compute feature
  vectors of vibration
  (e.g. AR model)
• Methods
   – SVDD and Statistical
     Boundaries
Statistical Parameterization
• Vibration strongly tied to temp (speed)
• Advanced by Keith Worden (Structural health
  monitoring)
   – Segment feature vectors into small groups of modal value
   – Compute statistics for each group (bin)
   – Trend with regression or interpolation
• Suffers from
   – Double curse of dimensionality
      • Describe healthy state for all
        segments of modal parameter
   – Gaussian distribution
      • Good heuristic
Multi-Modal Novelty Detection
• Employ intuition from Statistical Parameterization
  –   Don’t flatten data into bins
  –   Add modal parameter (speed) to feature vector
  –   Use any novelty detection technique
  –   One parameter only
• Gaussian Distribution
  – eliminated
• Curse of dimensionality
  – Dependent on underlying
    novelty detection technique
Experimental Methodology
Experimental Methodology
•   Sensors
     –   2500 ppr Tach
     –   4 accel (10 kHz)
     –   AE
     –   Hall effect sensors
     –   Inline torque meter
•   Variable Speed/Fixed Load (10 Nm)
•   DAQ and Control
     – NI FPGA and Accel Card


•   Vibration data
     – Segmentation: 30 shaft rotations, 70% overlap, Gaussian window
     – Feature vectors: Auto-Regressive (AR) Models and Statistics
     – Training: 20% of data for training, 80% for validation
•   Faults
     – Gears (96:32 and 80:48): missing tooth, root crack, chipped pinion
     – Bearings: rough ball, outer race, inner race, chopped ball
Classification Results
• No speed adaptation (SVDD)
Classification Results
• Statistical Parameterization
Classification Results
Conclusions
• No speed adaptation = poor results
• Statistical Parameterization
  – Good results
  – Double Curse of Dimensionality
  – Gaussian Distribution
• Multi-Modal Novelty Detection
  – Comparable Results
  – More to come
Future Work
• Novelty Detection Augmented for Fault
  Detection with Variable Speed Machinery
  (MSSP)
• Multi-Modal Novelty Detection for Variable
  Load and Speed Machinery
• Other multi-modal novelty detection
  techniques
  – No modal sensors
