A statistical vibration-based damage identification algorithm to assess the stability of the measurement data, detect and locate damage in civil structures, where variability in response and modal parameters due to measurement noise and environmental influence is often inevitable, is presented in this paper. The method exploits the regression analysis of peak values of the magnitudes of frequen...

The nondestructive determination of the maturity of durian is an important process for quality control. Since durian has specific properties, such as the thickness of peel, non-uniformity of shape, roughness of prickle skin, largeness of size etc., the nondestructive determination of the maturity is hard to perform. This paper proposes two approaches for determining maturity of durian by using ...

The vibration signal carries the signature of the fault in most rotating equipments, and early fault detection of a fault is possible by analyzing the signal using different signal processing techniques. In this paper we consider gearboxes as a typical representation of a rotating or cyclo-stationary process. Faults in gearboxes leave their signature on the vibration signal with an increased pr...

Varying speed machinery condition detection and fault diagnosis are more difficult due to non-stationary machine dynamics and vibration. Therefore, most conventional signal processing methods based on time invariant carried out in constant time interval are frequently unable to provide meaningful results. This paper deals with the detection of bearing faults in gearbox under non-stationary run-...

Steam-induced vibration is a kind of self-excited vibration which is one of the most important issues affecting the operation reliability of steam turbines. A lot of actual cases of steam-induced vibration of steam turbine were collected in this work. And steam-induced vibration fault was statistical and classified by fault reason, happened time, occurrence load and fault severity. The statisti...
