Title: | Investigating lubrication properties using pulse-echo ultrasound technique | Authors: | Imad, F. Nagi, F. Ahmed, S.K. |
Issue Date: | 2013 | Journal: | Proceedings - 2012 IEEE International Conference on Control System, Computing and Engineering, ICCSCE 2012 2013, Article number 6487135, Pages 166-170 | Abstract: | This paper presents a technique that utilizes ultrasonic puls-echo method to determine insufficient lubrication in static mechanical components and assemblies. Due to prolong static in-operation of such systems as spring actuated circuit breakers (CB) the lubricants/grease in the actuation mechanism dries up resulting in sluggish response. Since these systems remain static they don't emit any acoustic signals. Therefore active pulse-echo ultrasonic testing method is proposed to determine the lubricant condition. In the proposed method wavelet analysis is used to de-noise the signal and extract data about lubricant condition. The extracted features from different samples is be used to develop a fuzzy inference system to define the lubricant condition. © 2012 IEEE. | DOI: | 10.1109/ICCSCE.2012.6487135 |
