Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

We are pleased to invite you to submit your papers to the Special Issue of Machines on “Machine Health Diagnosis and Prognosis by Advanced Sensing and Data Driven Techniques”. Over the last few decades, researchers have paid close attention to machine diagnosis and prognosis. A multifaceted strategy in terms of diagnostic and prognostic research themes can greatly increase the operational dependability of machine maintenance. In terms of fundamental and engineering applications, modern technologies such as as smart sensing, sophisticated data collection, and intelligent algorithms have made this subject more appealing to researchers. Machine health diagnosis and prognosis are widely used in industries such as aerospace, manufacturing, automotive, infrastructure, and transportation sectors. Given the present state-of-the-art methods in this fast-evolving research field, we are soliciting papers in all areas of machine-health diagnostic and prognostic operations. A comprehensive range of issues in the field of machine diagnostics and prognostics will be discussed, including novel theories, techniques, data gathering processes, optimization algorithms, sensor design, modelling, and so on.

Topics include but are not limited to the following:

(1) Development of dynamic modelling regarding fault inception mechanisms and the degradation of the machine health;

(2)  Signal processing relative to measured data;

(3) Remaining useful life prediction;

(4) Artificial intelligence-based algorithms for machine-health diagnosis and prognosis;

(5) Hybrid fault diagnosis techniques;

(6) Machine-health monitoring under non-stationary time-varying speed conditions;

(7) Structural health monitoring (SHM);

(8) Feature extraction from machine data;

(9) Non-destructive testing (NDT);

(10) Machine learning;

(11) Deep learning.

The diagnosis of misalignment plays a crucial role in the area of maintenance and repair since misalignment can lead to expensive downtime. To address this issue, several solutions have been developed, and both offline and online approaches are available. However, online strategies using a small number of sensors show a higher false positive rate than other approaches. The problem is a lack of knowledge regarding the interrelations of a fault, disturbances during the diagnosis process, and capable features and feature vectors. Knowledge discovery in database is a framework that allows extracting the missing knowledge. For technical systems, optimal results were achieved by aligning (partially) automated experiments with a data mining strategy, in this case classification. The results yield a greater understanding of the interrelations regarding parallel misalignment, i.e., feature vectors that show good results also with varying load and realistic fault levels. Moreover, the test data confirm a specificity (range 0 to 1) for classification between 0.87 and 1 with the found feature vectors. For angular misalignment, potential vectors were identified, but these need further validation with a modified experiment in future work. For the study, two induction motors with 1.1 kW and 7.5 kW were considered. Furthermore, the findings were compared with additional motors of the same rated power. The findings of this work can help to improve the implementation of sensorless diagnostics on machines and advance the research in this field. Full article

This paper presents a review of the recent trends and the current state of the art in the application of fiber optic fiber Bragg gratings (FBG) sensing technology to condition the monitoring (CM) and testing of practical electric machinery and the associated power equipment. FBG technology has received considerable interest in this field in recent years, with research demonstrating that the flexible, multi-physical, and electromagnetic interference (EMI) immune in situ sensing of a multitude of physical measurands of CM interest is possible and cannot be obtained through conventional sensing means. The unique FBG sensing ability has the potential to unlock many of the electric machine CM and design validation restrictions imposed by the limitations of conventional sensing techniques but needs further research to attain wider adoption. This paper first presents the fundamental principles of FBG sensing. This is followed by a description of recent FBG sensing techniques proposed for electric machinery and associated power equipment and a discussion of their individual benefits and limitations. Finally, an outlook for the further application of this technique is presented. The underlying intention is for the review to provide an up-to-date overview of the state of the art in this area and inform future developments in FBG sensing in electric machinery. Full article
