For the fault diagnosis of a mechanical system, pattern recognition methods have being used frequently in recent research. Hidden Markov model(HMM) and artificial neural network(ANN) are typical examples of pattern recognition methods employed for the fault diagnosis of a mechanical system. In this paper, a hybrid method that combines HMM and ANN for the fault diagnosis of a mechanical system is introduced. A rotating blade which is used for a wind turbine is employed for the fault diagnosis. Using the HMM/ANN hybrid model along with the numerical model of the rotating blade, the location and depth of a crack as well as its presence are identified. Also the effect of signal to noise ratio, crack location and crack size on the success rate of the identification is investigated.

Purpose: McKenzie is a widely-used and conventional clinical therapeutic exercise for patients with mechanical lower back pain. It is a well-designed assessment and classification system for the spine. Main issue: Patients with mechanical lower back pain are classified into one of three mechanical syndromes (posture, dysfunction, or derangement syndrome) by mechanical loading strategies. These methods evaluate symptomatic and mechanical responses during repeated end-range movement and sustained postures. The goal of McKenzie mechanical syndrome diagnosis is to determine directional preferences. Directional preference is a phenomenon of preference for posture or movement in one direction, which reduces or centralizes pain. However, in Korea, there is a lack of awareness of basic McKenzie mechanical syndromes diagnostic concepts. Koreans tend to think of the McKenzie method as a simple lumbar extension exercise. However, an accurate diagnosis of a mechanical syndrome must precede the application of McKenzie exercise. Conclusions: Thus, in this study, I present a classification method of McKenzie mechanical syndrome diagnosis and clinical characteristics of each mechanical syndrome.

Support vector machines (SVMs) have become one of the most popular approaches to learning from examples and have many potential applications in science and engineering. However, their applications in fault diagnosis of rotating machinery are rather limited. Most of the published papers focus on some special fault diagnoses. This study covers the overall diagnosis procedures on most of the faults experienced in rotating machinery and examines the performance of different SVMs strategies. The excellent characteristics of SVMs are demonstrated by comparing the results obtained by artificial neural networks (ANNs) using vibration signals of a fault simulator.

The metal processing system usually consists of various components such as motors, work rolls, backup rolls, idle rolls, sensors, etc. Even a simple fault in a single component in the system may cause a serious damage on the final product. It is, therefore, necessary to diagnose the faults of the components to detect and prevent a system failure. Especially, the defects in a work roll are critical to the quality of strip. In this study, a new 3-D diagnosis method was developed for roll shape defects in rolling processes. The new method was induced from analyzing the rolling mechanism by using a rolling force model, a tension model, the Hitchcock's equation, and measurement of the strip thickness, etc. Computer simulation shows that the proposed method is very useful in the diagnosis of the 3-D roll shape.

By using image recognition technology, this paper presents a new fault diagnosis method for rotating machinery with artificial immune algorithm. This method focuses on the vibration state parameter image. The main contribution of this paper is as follows: firstly, 3-D spectrum is created with raw vibrating signals. Secondly, feature information in the state parameter image of rotating machinery is extracted by using Wavelet Packet transformation. Finally, artificial immune algorithm is adopted to diagnose rotating machinery fault. On the modeling of 600MW turbine experimental bench, rotor's normal rate, fault of unbalance, misalignment and bearing pedestal looseness are being examined. It's demonstrated from the diagnosis example of rotating machinery that the proposed method can improve the accuracy rate and diagnosis system robust quality effectively.

The metal processing system usually consists of various components such like motors, work rolls, backup rolls, idle rolls, sensors, etc. Even a simple fault in a single component in the system may cause a serious damage on the final product. It is therefore necessary to diagnose the faults of the components to detect and prevent system failure. Especially, the defects in a work roll are critical to the quality of strip. It is especially difficult to detect faults of a roll by using the existing frequency analysis method if the speed of the roll is changing. In this study, a new diagnosis method for roll eccentricity under the roll speed changes was developed. The new method was induced from analyzing the rolling mechanism by using rolling force models, radius-speed relationship, and measured rolling force, etc. Simulation results by using the field data show that the proposed method is very useful.

In this paper, a new condition diagnosis algorithm for the lens injection molding process using various features extracted from cavity pressure, nozzle pressure and screw position signals is developed with the aid of probability neural network (PNN) method. A new feature extraction method is developed for identifying five (5), seven (7) and two (2) critical features from cavity pressure, nozzle pressure and screw position signals, respectively. The node energies extracted from cavity and nozzle pressure signals are also considered based on wavelet packet decomposition (WPD). The PNN method is introduced to build the condition diagnosis model by considering the extracted features and node energies. A series of the lens injection molding experiments are conducted to validate the model, and it is demonstrated that the proposed condition diagnosis model is useful with high diagnosis accuracy.

Fault detection and diagnosis is the most important technology in condition-based maintenance(CBM) system that usually begins from collecting signatures of running machines using multiple sensors for subsequent accurate analysis. With the quick development in industry, there is an increasing requirement of selecting special sensors that are cheap, robust, and easy-installation. This paper experimentally investigated performances of four types of sensors used in induction motors faults diagnosis, which are vibration, current, voltage and flux. In addition, diagnostic effects of five popular classifiers also were evaluated. First, the raw signals from the four types of sensors are collected at the same time. Then the features are calculated from collected signals. Next, these features are classified through five classifiers using artificial intelligence techniques. Finally, conclusions are given based on the experiment results.
