In recent years, improvement has been achieved in vibration signal processing, using wavelet analysis for condition monitoring and fault diagnosis. The use of wavelet analysis has proven to be efficient to detect faults in vibration signals with nonstationary, transient characteristics/ components. An experimental data set is used to compare the diagnostic capability of the fast Fourier transfo...

Aiming at a large number construction of high-speed railway and elevated railway passenger station, make a dynamics simulation study on the law of platform vibration characteristics on the situation of high-speed train passing through. First, make a brief introduction on the theory of the interaction of the vehicle-elevated station structure in vertical and transverse directions. Secondly, on t...

Bone cells are deformed according to mechanical stimulation they receive and their mechanical characteristics. However, how osteoblasts are affected by mechanical vibration frequency and acceleration amplitude remains unclear. By developing 3D osteoblast finite element (FE) models, this study investigated the effect of cell shapes on vibration characteristics and effect of acceleration (vibrati...

The effects of various conditions, including temporary threshold shifts (TTS) induced by exposure to vibration on vibration sense thresholds, have been investigated. The vibration sense thresholds of five subjects were measured on the middle fingertip of the left hand. A contactor with a diameter of 7 mm was surrounded by three alternative plates with holes of different sizes. The contact force...

Rotor crack detection method by using multi-vibration signals gathered at the basements is presented in this paper. The finite element software ANSYS is applied for analyzing the vibration response characteristics of the basement to determine sensor configuration. Feature fusion for time-domain statistics of multiple sensors is performed by using the support vector machine to diagnose the depth...

Nanometer vibration analysis of a target has been demonstrated by a self-aligned optical feedback vibrometry technique that uses a laser-diode-pumped microchip solid-state laser. The laser output waveform, which was modulated through interference between a lasing field and an extremely weak (<- 100-dB) frequency-modulated (FM) feedback field, was analyzed by the Hilbert transformation to yield ...

We present a method for detecting anomalies in vibration signals of wind turbine components. The predominant characteristics of wind turbine vibration signals are extracted by applying a time-frequency feature extraction method based on Fourier local autocorrelation (FLAC) features. For anomaly detection, one-class classification based on an unsupervised clustering approach is applied in consid...

The railway vehicles are complex oscillator systems featuring specific vibration characteristics. The symmetrical and antisymmetrical vibration modes represent a property of the railway vehicle vibrations, due to its symmetry in construction. The paper describes the excitation mechanism of the symmetrical and antisymmetrical modes in a vertical plan of a railway vehicle on a track with irregula...

Seats have been newly developed with an anti-vibration suspension system for agricultural machinery. These seats were examined in a series of laboratory tests to determine their static and dynamic physical characteristics. These seats are specifically designed for the Japanese physique. An artificial track was constructed to simulate a farm field based on BSI (British Standard) and to examine v...
