This paper reports the results of an investigation in which a Prony model based method is developed. The method shows potential for analysing transient vibration signals. An example is included that shows how the procedure was employed to analyse the transient vibration signals created from faulty low speed rolling element bearings. Spectral plots generated by applying the procedure to very short data samples, as well as trending parameters based on these spectral estimations and Prony parameters, are presented. An equation was also derived to quantitatively determine the fault status. It is shown that application of the Prony model based method has the potential to be an effective as well as efficient machine condition monitoring and diagnostic tool where short duration transient vibration signals are being generated.

Vibration analysis has proven to be the most effective method for machine condition monitoring to date. Various effective signal analysis methods to analyze and extract fault signature that embedded in the raw vibration signals have been introduced in the past few decades such as fast Fourier transform (FFT), short time Fourier transform (STFT), wavelets analysis, empirical mode decomposition (EMD), Hilbert-Huang transform (HHT), etc. however, these is still a need for human to interpret vibration signature of faults and it is regarded as one of the major challenge in vibration condition monitoring. Thus, most recent researches in vibration condition monitoring revolved around using Artificial Intelligence (AI) techniques to automate machinery faults detection and diagnosis. The most recent literatures in this area show that researches are mainly focus on using machine learning techniques for data fusion, features fusion, and also decisions fusion in order to achieve a higher accuracy of decision making in vibration condition monitoring. This paper provides a review on the most recent development in vibration signal analysis methods as well as the AI techniques used for automated decision making in vibration condition monitoring in the past two years.

Acoustic Emission technique is a successful method in machinery condition monitoring and fault diagnosis due to its high sensitivity on locating micro cracks in high frequency domain. A recently developed method is by using artificial intelligence techniques as tools for routine maintenance. This paper presents a review of recent literature in the field of acoustic emission signal analysis through artificial intelligence in machine conditioning monitoring and fault diagnosis. Many different methods have been previously developed on the basis of intelligent systems such as artificial neural network, fuzzy logic system, Genetic Algorithms, and Support Vector Machine. However, the use of Acoustic Emission signal analysis and artificial intelligence techniques for machine condition monitoring and fault diagnosis is still rare. Although many papers have been written in area of artificial intelligence methods, this paper puts emphasis on Acoustic Emission signal analysis and limits the scope to artificial intelligence methods. In the future, the applications of artificial intelligence in machine condition monitoring and fault diagnosis still need more encouragement and attention due to the gap in the literature.
