Abstract

In the field of condition monitoring the availability of a real test-bench is not so common. Furthermore, the early validation of a new diagnostic technique on a proper simulated signal is crucial and a fundamental step in order to provide a feedback to the researcher and to increase the chances of getting a positive result in the real case. In this context, the aim of this paper is to detail a step-by-step analytical model of faulted bearing that the reader could freely and immediately use to simulate different faults and different operating conditions. The vision of the project is a set of tools accepted by the community of researchers on condition monitoring, for the preliminary validation of new diagnostics techniques. The tool proposed in this paper is focused on ball bearing, and it is based on the well-known model published by Antoni in 2007. The features available are the following: selection of the location of the fault, stage of the fault, cyclostationarity of the signal, random contributions, deterministic contributions, effects of resonances in the machine and working conditions (stationary and non-stationary). The script is provided for the open-source Octave environment. The output signal is finally analysed to prove the expected features.
