Quality control of textile products is an important stage in textile industries. To this end, the conventional method in fault detection is human inspection. In the present work, Wavelet transform was applied on images of simple circular knitted fabrics to diagnose five regular defects. The results showed that the method applied was accurate and fast in addition to being capable of determining ...

In this paper, we propose an algorithm to efficiently diagnose large-scale clustered failures. The algorithm, Cluster-MAX-COVERAGE (CMC), is based on greedy approach. We address the challenge of determining faults with incomplete symptoms. CMC makes novel use of both positive and negative symptoms to output a hypothesis list with a low number of false negatives and false positives quickly. CMC ...

This paper presents a method to diagnose faults in FPGA interconnection resources. A single fault model is given. Under the given model, a diagnosing method is proposed. At most five programming steps in the proposed method is required if adaptive testing scheme is used. For non-adaptive test, eight programming steps is required to diagnose all the possible faults under the given single fault m...

How do professional software engineers debug computer programs? In an experiment with 27 real bugs that existed in several widely used programs, we invited 12 professional software engineers, who together spent one month on localizing, explaining, and fixing these bugs. This did not only allow us to study the various tools and strategies used to debug the same set of errors. We could also deter...

To further enhance the early diagnose precision and efficiency for rotor crack under condition of strongly noise, AE signals is applied to extract fault feature of early rotor cracks with the advantages of strong anti-noise ability, clear fault feature. Based on the Pseudo Wigner-Ville Distribution (PWVD), the amplitude and frequency as feature vector are extracted from the AE signal in this pa...

A methodology is proposed to diagnose faults from a detection system that allows to express uncertainty with intervals in parameters and measurements. A fault is detected by comparing current measurements with computed external and internal approximations of behavior. The results are applied to diagnose faults. A qualitative data set is obtained in order to create fault rules. A fault library i...

Induction motors are a critical component of many industrial processes and are frequently integrated in commercially available equipment and industrial processes. The studies of induction motor behavior during abnormal conditions, and the possibility to diagnose different types of faults have been a challenging topic for many electrical machine researchers. The Motor Current Signature Analysis ...

Ocean economy plays a crucial role in the strengthening maritime safety industry and in the welfare of human beings. Electric Submersible Pumps (ESP) have been widely used in floating platforms on the sea to provide oil for machines. However, the ESP fault may lead to ocean environment pollution, on the other hand, a timely fault diagnosis of ESP can improve the ocean economy. In order to meet ...

in this paper, a fault diagnosis system based on discrete wavelet transform (dwt) and artificial neural networks (anns) is designed to diagnose different types of fault in gears. dwt is an advanced signal-processing technique for fault detection and identification. five features of wavelet transform rms, crest factor, kurtosis, standard deviation and skewness of discrete wavelet coefficients of...
