    Cardiac health diagnosis using wavelet transformation and phase space plots
    (2005) Acharya, A.U.; Subbanna Bhat, P.; Kannathal, N.; Lim, C.M.; Laxminarayan, S.
    Analysis of heart rate variation (HRV) has become a popular noninvasive tool for assessing the activities of the autonomic nervous system (ANS). HRV analysis is based on the concept that fast fluctuations may specifically reflect changes of sympathetic and vagal activity. It shows that the structure generating the signal is not simply linear, but also involves nonlinear contributions. These signals are essentially nonstationary; may contain indicators of current disease, or even warnings about impending diseases. The indicators may be present at all times or may occur at random in the time scale. However, to study and pinpoint abnormalities in voluminous data collected over several hours is strenuous and time consuming. This paper presents the continuous time wavelet analysis of heart rate variability signal for disease identification. Phase space plots of heart rate signal for a chosen embedding dimension are compared with the wavelet analysis patterns. © 2005 IEEE.

    Ball bearing fault diagnosis based on vibration signals of two stroke ic engine using continuous wavelet transform
    (Springer Science and Business Media Deutschland GmbH info@springer-sbm.com, 2020) Ravikumar, K.N.; Madhusudana, C.K.; Kumar, H.; Gangadharan, K.V.
    Ball bearings are used in the different critical fields of engineering applications such as IC engine, centrifugal pump and fans. In IC engine, the ball bearing is one of the critical components and it takes various types of dynamic loads and stresses. Condition monitoring of such ball bearing is very significant to avoid the catastrophic failure of rotating components in IC Engine. This article describes the fault detection of roller ball bearing of an IC engine gearbox with the use of signal processing technique such as spectrum analysis and Continuous Wavelet Transform (CWT) analysis. Vibration signals of IC engine are used to identify the fault in the ball bearing and to detect the healthy and fault bearing conditions. © Springer Nature Singapore Pte Ltd 2020.
