Trajectory Clustering for Vibration Detection in Aircraft Engines
نویسندگان
چکیده
The automatic detection of the vibration signature of rotating parts of an aircraft engine is considered. This paper introduces an algorithm that takes into account the variation over time of the level of detection of orders, i.e. vibrations ate multiples of the rotating speed. The detection level over time at a specific order are gathered in a socalled trajectory. It is shown that clustering the trajectories to classify them into detected and non-detected orders improves the robustness to noise and other external conditions, compared to a traditional statistical signal detection by an hypothesis test. The algorithms are illustrated in real aircraft engine data.

A Framework for Novelty Detection in Jet Engine Vibration Data
A novelty detection approach to condition monitoring of aerospace gas-turbine engines is presented, providing a consistent framework for onand off-line analysis, each with differing typical implementation constraints. On-line techniques are introduced for observing abnormality in engine behaviour during aircraft flights, and are shown to provide early warning of engine events in real-time. Off-...

Landing impact and runway unevenness have proximate consequence on performance of landing gear system and conduce to discomfort of passengers and reduction of the pilot’s capability to control aircraft. Finally, vibrations caused by them result in structure fatigue. Fuzzy logic controller is used frequently in different applications because of simplicity in design and implementation. In the pre...
متن کاملApplication of Combined Local Object Based Features and Cluster Fusion for the Behaviors Recognition and Detection of Abnormal Behaviors
In this paper, we propose a novel framework for behaviors recognition and detection of certain types of abnormal behaviors, capable of achieving high detection rates on a variety of real-life scenes. The new proposed approach here is a combination of the location based methods and the object based ones. First, a novel approach is formulated to use optical flow and binary motion video as the loc...
