The friction and imbalance of components in rotating machines are some of the most recurrent failures that significantly increase vibration levels, thus affecting the reliability of the devices, the shelf life of its elements, and the quality of the product. There are many publications related to the different techniques for the diagnosis of friction and imbalance. In this paper, an alternative and new phase-shift empirical mode decomposition integration (PSEMDI) method is proposed to transform the acceleration into its velocity and displacement in order to construct the phase plane and recurrence plot (RP) and analyze the friction. The focus of PSEMDI and RP is to analyze nonlinear failures in mechanical systems. In machinery fault diagnosis, the main reason for using RP is to solve the integration of acceleration, and this can be achieved by phase-shifting the intrinsic mode function (IMF) with the empirical mode decomposition (EMD). Although the highest IMFs contain some frequencies, most of them have very few; thus, by applying the phase shift identity, the integration can be carried out maintaining the nonlinearities. The proposed method is compared with Simpson’s integration and detrending with the EMD method (here referred to as SDEMDI). The experimental RP results show that the proposed method gives significantly more information about the velocity and displacement spectra and it is more stable and proportional than the SDEMDI method. The results of the proposed integration method are compared with vibration measurements obtained with an interferometer.

ABSTRACT. Seismic processing aims to provide an adequate image of the subsurface geology. During seismic processing, the filtering of signals considered noise is of utmost importance. Among these signals is the surface rolling noise, better known as ground-roll. Ground-roll occurs mainly in land seismic data, masking reflections, and this roll has the following main features: high amplitude, low frequency and low speed. The attenuation of this noise is generally performed through so-called conventional methods using 1-D or 2-D frequency filters in the fk domain. This study uses the empirical mode decomposition (EMD) method for ground-roll attenuation. The EMD method was implemented in the programming language FORTRAN 90 and applied in the time and frequency domains. The application of this method to the processing of land seismic line 204-RL-247 in Tacutu Basin resulted in stacked seismic sections that were of similar or sometimes better quality compared with those obtained using the fk and high-pass filtering methods.Keywords: seismic processing, empirical mode decomposition, seismic data filtering, ground-roll. RESUMO. O processamento sísmico tem como principal objetivo fornecer uma imagem adequada da geologia da subsuperfície. Nas etapas do processamento sísmico a filtragem de sinais considerados como ruídos é de fundamental importância. Dentre esses ruídos encontramos o ruído de rolamento superficial, mais conhecido como ground-roll . O ground-roll ocorre principalmente em dados sísmicos terrestres, mascarando as reflexões e possui como principais características: alta amplitude, baixa frequência e baixa velocidade. A atenuação desse ruído é geralmente realizada através de métodos de filtragem ditos convencionais, que utilizam filtros de frequência 1D ou filtro 2D no domínio fk. Este trabalho utiliza o método de Decomposição em Modos Empíricos (DME) para a atenuação do ground-roll. O método DME foi implementado em linguagem de programação FORTRAN 90, e foi aplicado no domínio do tempo e da frequência. Sua aplicação no processamento da linha sísmica terrestre 204-RL-247 da Bacia do Tacutu gerou como resultados, seções sísmicas empilhadas de qualidade semelhante e por vezes melhor, quando comparadas as obtidas com os métodos de filtragem fk e passa-alta.Palavras-chave: processamento sísmico, decomposição em modos empíricos, filtragem dados sísmicos, atenuação do ground-roll.

The output-only modal analysis for bridge structures based on improved empirical mode decomposition (EMD) is investigated in this study. First, a bandwidth restricted EMD is proposed for decomposing nonstationary output measurements with close frequency components. The advantage of bandwidth restricted EMD to standard EMD is illustrated by a numerical simulation. Next, the modal parameters are extracted from intrinsic mode function obtained from the improved EMD by both random decrement technique and stochastic subspace identification. Finally, output-only modal analysis of a railway bridge is presented. The study demonstrates the mode mixing issues of standard EMD can be restrained by introducing bandwidth restricted signal. Further, with the improved EMD method, band-pass filter is no longer needed for separating the closely spaced frequency components. The modal parameters extracted based on the improved EMD method show good agreement with those extracted by conventional modal identification algorithms.

A photoacoustic (PA) signal of an ideal optical absorbing particle is a single N-shape wave. PA signals are a combination of several individual N-shape waves. However, the N-shape wave basis leads to aliasing between adjacent micro-structures, which deteriorates the quality of final PA images. In this paper, we propose an image optimization method by processing raw PA signals with deconvolution and empirical mode decomposition (EMD). During the deconvolution procedure, the raw PA signals are de-convolved with a system dependent deconvolution kernel, which is measured in advance. EMD is subsequently adopted to further process the PA signals adaptively with two restrictive conditions: positive polarity and spectrum consistency. With this method, signal aliasing is alleviated, and the micro-structures and detail information, previously buried in the reconstructing images, can now be revealed. To validate our proposed method, numerical simulations and phantom studies are implemented, and reconstructed images are used for illustration.

Using a combination of the pole placement and online empirical mode decomposition (EMD) methods, a new algorithm is proposed for adaptive active control of structural vibration. The EMD method is a time-frequency domain analysis method that can be used for nonstationary and nonlinear problems. Combining the EMD method and Hilbert transform, which is called Hilbert–Huang transform, achieves a method that can be implemented to extract instantaneous properties of signals such as structural response dominant instantaneous frequencies. In the proposed algorithm, these estimated instantaneous properties are utilized to improve the pole-placement method as an adaptive active control technique. The required active control gains are obtained using a genetic algorithm scheme, and optimal gains are calculated corresponding to preselected excitation frequencies. An algorithm is also introduced to choose excitation frequencies based on online EMD method resolution. In order to investigate the efficiency of the proposed method, some case studies that include a discrete model, continuous samples of beam and plate structures, and experimental cantilevered beam are carried out, and the results of the proposed method are compared with the preset (nonadaptive) optimal gains conditions.

The bonding quality of composite materials have a critical influence on the quality of the product in modern industry, while the current technology can only make judgments on bonding and de-bonding instead of quantitative evaluation of different de-bonding degrees. We present HHT method to extract features of echo signals used for quantitative recognition of bonding quality of thin plates. For the non-stationary characteristic of the ultrasonic echo signal, empirical mode decomposition(EMD) and ensemble empirical mode decomposition(EEMD) are put forward to decompose the signal and calculate its energy torque. The HHT method highlights the time-frequency performance of echo signals effectively. The simulated signals verify that EEMD has more excellent decomposition performance than EMD, that is, EEMD diminishes the mode mixing to some extent generated from EMD decomposition.

This article describes and analyses multistep algorithms for evaluating of the wave field phase in interferometric measurements using the phase shifting technique. New phase shifting algorithms are proposed, with a constant but arbitrary phase shift between captured frames of the intensity of the interference field. The phase evaluation process then does not depend on linear phase shift errors. A big advantage of the described algorithms is their ability to determine the phase shift value at every point of the detector plane. A detailed analysis of these algorithms with respect to main factors that affect interferometric measurements is then carried out. The dependency of these algorithms on phase shift values is also studied several phase calculation algorithms are proposed. These are compared with respect to the resulting phase errors.

<p><strong>Abstract.</strong> Denoising is a key pre-processing step for many airborne LiDAR point cloud applications. However, the previous algorithms have a number of problems, which affect the quality of point cloud post-processing, such as DTM generation. In this paper, a novel automated denoising algorithm is proposed based on empirical mode decomposition to remove outliers from airborne LiDAR point cloud. Comparing with traditional point cloud denoising algorithms, the proposed method can detect outliers from a signal processing perspective. Firstly, airborne LiDAR point clouds are decomposed into a series of intrinsic mode functions with the help of morphological operations, which would significantly decrease the computational complexity. By applying OTSU algorithm to these intrinsic mode functions, noise-dominant components can be detected and filtered. Finally, outliers are detected automatically by comparing observed elevations and reconstructed elevations. Three datasets located at three different cities in China were used to verify the validity and robustness of the proposed method. The experimental results demonstrate that the proposed method removes both high and low outliers effectively with various terrain features while preserving useful ground details.</p>

In this paper, we propose a variant of the Empirical Mode Decomposition method to decompose multiscale data into their intrinsic mode functions. Under the assumption that the multiscale data satisfy certain scale separation property, we show that the proposed method can extract the intrinsic mode functions accurately and uniquely.
