Item 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.Item Fault diagnosis of single-point cutting tool using vibration signal by rotation forest algorithm(Springer Nature, 2019) Aralikatti, S.S.; Ravikumar, K.N.; Kumar, H.In various machining operations, the tool condition monitoring (TCM) is highly necessary to avoid uncertain downtime in production. TCM provides continuously the condition of cutting tool by noticing various parameters such as temperature, acoustic emission and vibration. One of the best ways to monitor the condition of cutting tools for unmanned machining is by observing tool vibration signature. In the present work, vibration signals are acquired from the cutting tool. One healthy state and three faulty conditions of tools are considered for the study. The faulty tools considered in the current study are worn flank, broken tool and extended overhang. The vibration signals of these faulty tool conditions are used to train the machine learning algorithm. Statistical features are extracted from the vibration signal to feed as input to the J48 decision tree. The classifier algorithm used in the current study is rotation forest algorithm. The algorithm uses only significant features which are selected from a decision tree. The algorithm is validated with test dataset to recognize the faulty or healthy state of the tool. It was found that the algorithm could classify the tool condition with 95.00% classification accuracy. © 2019, Springer Nature Switzerland AG.Item Fault diagnosis of antifriction bearing in internal combustion engine gearbox using data mining techniques(Springer, 2022) Ravikumar, K.N.; Aralikatti, S.S.; Kumar, H.; Kumar, G.N.; Gangadharan, K.V.Ball bearing failure are most common failure in rotating machinery, which can be catastrophic. Hence obtaining early failure warning along with precise fault detection technique is at most important. Early detection and timely intervention are the key in condition monitoring for long term endurance of machine components. The early research has used signal processing and spectral analysis extensively for fault detection however data mining with machine learning is most effective in fault diagnosis, the same is presented in this paper. The vibration signals are acquired for an output shaft antifriction bearing in a two-wheeler gearbox operated at various loading conditions with healthy and fault conditions. Data mining is employed for these acquired signals. Statistical, discrete wavelet and empirical mode decomposition are employed for feature extraction process and J48 decision tree for feature selection. Classification is carried out using K*, Random forest and support vector machine algorithm. The classifiers are trained and tested using tenfold cross validation method to diagnose the bearing fault. A comparative study of feature extraction and classifiers are done to evaluate the classification accuracy. The results obtained from K* classifier with wavelet feature yielded better accuracy than rest other classifiers with classification accuracy 92.5% for bearing fault diagnosis. © 2021, The Society for Reliability Engineering, Quality and Operations Management (SREQOM), India and The Division of Operation and Maintenance, Lulea University of Technology, Sweden.
