Description
Summary:Abstract Deep Groove Ball Bearings (DGBBs) serve multipurpose and are used for the propeller shaft movement and applications based on revolving. They have great applications in industry related to axial and radial loads. The major risk factors are faults in bearings. Data analyzed for faults in the DGBBs help us conclude that there are 4 types of bearing faults. For instance, Excluding HB- Healthy Bearing, there are CF- Case Fault, BF- Ball Fault, IRF- Inner Ring Fault, and ORF- Outer Ring Fault. The input parameters are represented by using 14 features in the evaluation. Next, a feature ranking method is established to classify the bearing fault and contribution of each of the features is used as input conditions. It displays the involvement value for each of the 14 parameters. Automatic fault classification has been done by Artificial Neural Networks (ANN). Training on various algorithms is performed, noting and storing the probability of correct prediction for comparison. The probability of correct predictions decreases as the number of samples representing faults increases. A high efficiency of around 97.9% has been achieved for the Resnet50 algorithm. The classifier learner achieved an accuracy of 97% using the neural network, followed by the decision tree and discriminant analysis.
