In this paper, we propose an FDI(fault detection and isolation) method using neural network-based multi-fault models to detect and isolate faults in nonlinear systems. When a change in the system occurs, the errors between the system output and the neural network nominal system output cross a threshold, and once a fault in the system is detected, the fault classifier statistically isolates the fault by using the error between each neural network-based fault model output and the system output. From the computer simulation results, it is verified that the proposed fault diagonal method can be performed successfully to detect and isolate faults in a nonlinear system.

국내 원전에 신뢰도 기반 정비(RCM : Reliability Centered Maintenance) 기법을 도입하기 위해 수행하고 있는 영광 1,2호기 시법계통 RCM 분석에서 관련 기기의 고장데이터를 RCM 분석 방법론에 따라 분석하였다. 본 논문에서는 작업의뢰서와 작업보고서 기록내용을 토대로 지배적인 고장모드 및 다빈도 고장발생 기기를 파악하여 고장원인을 분석하였으며, 기기 유형으로 분류하여 고장들을 분석하였다. 분석결과 지배적인 고장모드는 EPRI에서 분류한 고장모드에 모두 포함되었으며, 고장빈도가 높은 기기의 고장원인은 운전환경, 사용유체, 운전형태, 기기 형식 등에 따라 고장메커니즘이 다르게 나타나는 것으로 분석되었다. 기기 유형으로 분류하여 고장모드별로 고장율을 분석한 결과 미국의 Generic Data(IEEE Std 500-1984)와 근소한 차이를 보이거나 약간 낮은 것으로 분석되었으며, 고장율이 높은 기기 유형을 단위 기기별로 세분화하여 분석한 결과 공기구동 조절벨브의 외부누설 고장율은 1.10E-06 이지만 충전유량 조절밸브의 고장율은 1.70E-05로서 약 10배 정도로 고장율이 높은 것으로 분석되었다. 기기별로 세분화한 고장을 분석 결과는 시범계통 RCM 분석시 고장모드 영향분석(FMEA. Failure Mode and Effective Analysis) 단계에서 필수기기를 선정하는 하나의 인자로 활용하였으며, 고장율의 역수로 구한 고장간 평균시간(MTBF:Mean Time Between Failure)은 정비주기 선정시 기초데이터로 활용된다.

본 논문에서는 PCA에 의한 특징추출과 k-NN과 SVM에 기반을 계층구조의 분류기에 의한 유도전동기의 고장진단 알고리즘을 제안한다. 제안된 방법은 k-NN에 의해 선형적으로 분류 가능한 고장패턴을 분류한 후, 분류가 되지 않는 부분을 커널 함수에 의해 고차원 공간으로 입력패턴을 매핑한 후 SVM에 의해 고장을 진단하는 계층구조를 갖는다. 실험장치를 구축한 후, 다양한 부하에 대하여 몇몇의 전기적 고장과 기계적 고장 하에서 획득한 데이터를 이용하여 제안된 방법의 타당성을 검증한다.

This paper presents a fault diagnosis method using neural network-based multi-fault models and statistical method to detect and isolate faults in nonlinear systems. In the proposed method, faults are detected when the errors between the system output and the neural network nominal system output cross a predetermined threshold. Once a fault in the system is detected, the fault classifier statistically isolates the fault by using the error between each neural network-based fault model output and the system output. From the computer simulation results, it is verified that the proposed fault diagonal method can be performed successfully to detect and isolate faults in a nonlinear system.

This paper proposes a 3-stage (preprocessing, feature extraction, and classification) fault detection and classification algorithm for induction motors. In the first stage, a low-pass filter is used to remove noise components in the fault signal. In the second stage, a discrete cosine transform (DCT) and a statistical method are used to extract features of the fault signal. Finally, a back propagation neural network (BPNN) method is applied to classify the fault signal. To evaluate the performance of the proposed algorithm, we used one second long normal/abnormal vibration signals of an induction motor sampled at 8kHz. Experimental results showed that the proposed algorithm achieves about 100% accuracy in fault classification, and it provides 50% improved accuracy when compared to the existing fault detection algorithm using a cross-covariance method. In a real-world data acquisition environment, unnecessary noise components are usually included to the real signal. Thus, we conducted an additional simulation to evaluate how well the proposed algorithm classifies the fault signals in a circumstance where a white Gaussian noise is inserted into the fault signals. The simulation results showed that the proposed algorithm achieves over 98% accuracy in fault classification. Moreover, we developed a testbed system including a TI's DSP (digital signal processor) to implement and verify the functionality of the proposed algorithm.

Open-phase fault in a Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motor (PMSM) occurs due to disconnection of phases of motor windings or inverter switch failures. When an open-phase occurs, it leads to the generation of torque ripples and vibrations in the motor, which can have a critical impact on the safety of the vehicle (including aircraft) using a PMSM as an actuator. Therefore, rapid fault detection and classification are essential. This paper proposes a classification method for detecting open-phase faults and locating fault positions in a PMSM used in aircraft applications. The proposed approach uses an Extended Kalman Filter for fault diagnosis, and it subsequently classifies faults using a Multiple Model filter.

Neural networks-based fault diagnosis algorithm to detect and isolate faults in the nonlinear systems is proposed. In the proposed method, the fault is detected when the errors between the system output and the multilayer neural network-based nominal model output cross a Predetermined threshold. Once a fault in the system is detected, the system outputs are transferred to the fault classifier by nultilayer/ART2 NN (adaptive resonance theory 2 neural network) for fault isolation. From the computer simulation results, it is verified that the proposed fault diagonal method can be performed successfully to detect and isolate faults in a nonlinear system.

As it is the most important to make sure security and reliability for nuclear Power Plant, it's considered the most crucial issues to develop a fault detective and diagnostic system in spite of multiple hardware redundancy in itself. To develop an algorithm for a fault diagnosis in the nuclear PWR steam generator, this paper proposes a method based on ART2(adaptive resonance theory 2) neural network that senses and classifies troubles occurred in the system. The fault diagnosis system consists of fault detective part to sense occurred troubles, parameter estimation part to identify changed system parameters and fault classification part to understand types of troubles occurred. The fault classification part Is composed of a fault classifier that uses ART2 neural network. The Performance of the proposed fault diagnosis a18orithm was corroborated by applying in the steam generator.

본 논문에서는, 주성분분석기법과 다층신경망에 기반을 둔 유도전동기의 고장진단기법을 제안하고자 한다. 입력의 수가 많을 경우 다층신경망만을 이용하여 분류하는 데는 한계가 있다. 이러한 문제점을 해결하기 위해 주성분분석기법에 의해 입력특징의 수를 축약한 후, 비선형분류기인 다층신경망을 적용하였다. 또한, 주성분 분석기법에 추출된 특징벡터가 고장상태별로 비선형성특성을 보일 경우 기존의 거리척도 기반에 의한 분류방법으로는 정확한 진단을 하는데 어려움이 있다. 이를 위해 비선형 분류기인 MLP를 적용함으로써 효과적인 고장진단을 하고자 한다. 제안된 기법은 다양한 실험을 통해 기존의 선형분류기에 비해 우수한 결과를 보임을 나타내고자 한다.

In this paper, we propose fault diagnosis of induction motor based on PCA and MLP. To resolve the main drawback of MLP, we calculate the reduced features by PCA in advance. Finally, we develop the diagnosis system based on nonlinear classifier by MLP rather than linear classifier by conventional k-NN. By various experiments, we obtained better classification performance in comparison to the results produced by linear classifier by k-NN.
