VIBRATION ANALYSIS
Vibration analysis of industrial machinery
has been around for many decades, but gained prominence
with the introduction and widespread use of the personal
computer.
Vibration Analysis refers to the process of
measuring the vibration levels and frequencies of industrial
machinery, and using that information to determine the
“health” of the machine, and its components.
When an industrial machine (such as a
fan or pump) is operated, it generates vibration. This
vibration can be measured, using a device called an
accelerometer.
An accelerometer generates a voltage
signal, proportional to the amount of vibration, as well as
the frequency of vibration, or how many time per second or
minutes the vibration takes place.
This voltage signal from the
accelerometer is fed into a data collector, which records this
signal as either a time waveform (amplitude vs. time), as a
Fast Fourier Transform (amplitude vs. frequency), or as
both. This signal can then be analyzed by a trained
vibration analyst, or by the use of a “smart” computer
program algorithm.
The analyzed data is then used to
determine the “health” of the machine, and identify any
impending problems in the machine, such as misalignment,
unbalance, a bearing or lubrication problem, looseness,
and more.

DATA REDUCTION
Data reduction is the transformation of
numerical or alphabetical digital information derived
empirically or experimentally into a corrected, ordered, and
simplified form.
The basic concept is the reduction of
multitudinous amounts of data down to the meaningful
parts.
When information is derived from
instrument readings there may also be a transformation
from analog to digital form.
When the data are already in digital form
the 'reduction' of the data typically involves some
editing, scaling, encoding, sorting, collating, and producing
tabular summaries.
When the observations are discrete but
the underlying phenomenon is continuous
then smoothing and interpolation are often needed. Often
the data reduction is undertaken in the presence of reading
or measurement errors. Some idea of the nature of these
errors is needed before the most likely value may be
determined.
An example in astronomy is the data
reduction in the Kepler satellite. This satellite records 95-
megapixel images once every six seconds, generating tens
of megabytes of data per second, which is orders of
magnitudes more than the downlink bandwidth of 550
KBps.
The on-board data reduction
encompasses co-adding the raw frames for thirty minutes,
