Abstract
Bayesian estimation techniques are finding application domains in machinery fault diagnosis and prognosis of the remaining useful life of a failing component/subsystem. This paper introduces a methodology for accurate and precise prediction of a failing component based on particle filtering and learning strategies. This novel approach employs a state dynamic model and a measurement model to predict the posterior probability density function of the state, i.e., to predict the time evolution of a fault or fatigue damage. It avoids the linearity and Gaussian noise assumption of Kalman filtering and provides a robust framework for long-term prognosis while accounting effectively for uncertainties. Correction terms are estimated in a learning paradigm to improve the accuracy and precision of the algorithm for long-term prediction. The proposed approach is applied to a crack fault and the results support its robustness and superiority. Copyright © 2005 by ASME.
