Performance of Continuous Wavelet Transform over Fourier Transform in Features Resolutions

This study presents a comparative analysis of two image enhancement techniques, Continuous Wavelet Transform (CWT) and Fast Fourier Transform (FFT), in the context of improving the clarity of high-quality 3D seismic data obtained from the Tano Basin in West Africa, Ghana. The research focuses on a comparative analysis of image clarity in seismic attribute analysis to facilitate the identification of reservoir features within the subsurface structures. The findings of the study indicate that CWT has a significant advantage over FFT in terms of image quality and identifying subsurface structures. The results demonstrate the superior performance of CWT in providing a better representation, making it more effective for seismic attribute analysis. The study highlights the importance of choosing the appropriate image enhancement technique based on the specific application needs and the broader context of the study. While CWT provides high-quality images and superior performance in identifying subsurface structures, the selection between these methods should be made judiciously, taking into account the objectives of the study and the characteristics of the signals being analyzed. The research provides valuable insights into the decision-making process for selecting image enhancement techniques in seismic data analysis, helping researchers and practitioners make informed choices that cater to the unique requirements of their studies. Ultimately, this study contributes to the advancement of the field of subsurface imaging and geological feature identification.

DETECTION OF INCIPIENT LOCALIZED GEAR FAULTS IN GEARBOX BY COMPLEX CONTINUOUS WAVELET TRANSFORM

As far as the vibration signal processing is concerned, composition ofvibration signal resulting from incipient localized faults in gearbox is too weak to be detected bytraditional detecting technology available now. The method, which includes two steps: vibrationsignal from gearbox is first processed by synchronous average sampling technique and then it isanalyzed by complex continuous wavelet transform to diagnose gear fault, is introduced. Twodifferent kinds of faults in the gearbox, i.e. shaft eccentricity and initial crack in tooth fillet,are detected and distinguished from each other successfully.

PARAMETERS OPTIMIZATION OF CONTINUOUS WAVELET TRANSFORM AND ITS APPLICATION IN ACOUSTIC EMISSION SIGNAL ANALYSIS OF ROLLING BEARING

Morlet wavelet is suitable to extract the impulse components of mechanical fault signals. And thus its continuous wavelet transform （CWT） has been successfully used in the field of fault diagnosis. The principle of scale selection in CWT is discussed. Based on genetic algorithm, an optimization strategy for the waveform parameters of the mother wavelet is proposed with wavelet entropy as the optimization target. Based on the optimized waveform parameters, the wavelet scalogram is used to analyze the simulated acoustic emission （AE） signal and real AE signal of rolling bearing. The results indicate that the proposed method is useful and efficient to improve the quality of CWT.

Study of the Functions of Wavelet Packet Transform （WPT） and Continues Wavelet Transform （CWT） in Recognizing the Damage Specification

Modem and efficient methods focus on signal analysis and have drawn researchers＇ attention to it in recent years. These methods mainly include Continuous Wavelet and Wavelet Packet transforms. The main advantage of the application of these Wavelets is their capacity to analyze the signal position in different occasions and places. However, in sites with high frequencies its resolution becomes much more difficult. Wavelet packet transform is a more advanced form of continuous wavelets and can make a perfect level by level resolution for each signal. Although very few studies have been done in the field. In order to do this, in the present study, f^st there was an attempt to do a modal analysis on the structure by the ANSYS finite elements software, then using MATLAB, the wavelet was investigated through a continuous wavelet analysis. Finally the results were displayed in 2-D location-coefficient figures. In the second form, transient-dynamic analysis was done on the structure to find out the characteristics of the damage and the wavelet packet energy rate index was suggested. The results indicate that suggested index in the second form is both practical and applicable, and also this index is sensitive to the intensity of the damage.

On Inversion of Continuous Wavelet Transform

This study deduces a general inversion of continuous wavelet transform (CWT) with timescale being real rather than positive. In conventional CWT inversion, wavelet’s dual is assumed to be a reconstruction wavelet or a localized function. This study finds that wavelet’s dual can be a harmonic which is not local. This finding leads to new CWT inversion formulas. It also justifies the concept of normal wavelet transform which is useful in time-frequency analysis and time-frequency filtering. This study also proves a law for CWT inversion: either wavelet or its dual must integrate to zero.

A new orthogonal property of mother wavelet in parameter space is revealed.

We consider a singular differential-difference operator Λ on R which includes as a particular case the one-dimensional Dunkl operator. By using harmonic analysis tools corresponding to Λ, we introduce and study a new continuous wavelet transform on R tied to Λ. Such a wavelet transform is exploited to invert an intertwining operator between Λ and the first derivative operator d/dx.

Natural frequencies and damping estimation based on continuous wavelet transform

The continuous wavelet transform(CWT)based method was improved for estimating the natural frequencies and damping ratios of a structural system in this paper.The appropriate scale of CWT was selected by means of the least squares method to identify the systems with closely spaced modes.The important issues related to estimation accuracy such as mode separation and end effect,were also investigated.These issues were associated with the parameter selection of wavelet function based on the fitting error of least squares.The efficiency of the method was confirmed by applying it to a simulated 3dof damped system with two close modes.

The Time-Frequency Energy Attenuation Factor and Its Application on the Basis of Gauss Linear Frequency-Modulated Continuous Wavelet Transform

Based on the Gauss linear frequency modulated wavelet transform, a new characteristic index is presented, namely time frequency energy attenuation factor which can reflect the difference features of waveform in earthquake focus mechanism, wave traveling path and its attenuation characteristics in focal area or near field. In order to test its validity, we select the natural earthquakes and explosion or collapse events whose focus mechanisms vary obviously,and some natural earthquakes located at the same site or in a very small area. The study indicates that the time frequency energy attenuation factors of the natural earthquakes are obviously different with that of explosion or collapse events, and the change of the time frequency energy attenuation factors is relatively stable for the earthquakes under the normal seismicity background. Using the above mentioned method, it is expected to offer a useful criterion for strong earthquake prediction by continuous earthquake observation.

基于CWT和CNN-BiLSTM的散绕同步电机定子绕组短路故障检测方法

近年来,基于脉冲频率响应法(impulse frequency response analysis,IFRA)的神经网络模型已被证实能够有效检测定子绕组故障。然而,这些模型普遍具有鲁棒性不强、抗噪能力差等特点,究其原因是大多数的模型采用简单的神经网络架构且常规的IFRA普遍采用快速傅里叶变换(fast Fourier transform,FFT)对暂态信号进行时频变换,而FFT并不适合处理暂态突变的非平稳信号。文中以散绕结构的同步电机定子绕组为检测对象,采用连续小波变换(continual wavelet transform,CWT)代替FFT处理IFRA的暂态信号,并基于一维卷积神经网络(convolutional neural networks,CNN)和双向长短时记忆网络(bi-directional long short-term memory,BiLSTM)构建CNN-BiLSTM模型对采用CWT变换之后的信号进行故障检测。实验结果表明:采用CWT处理后的频域序列作为该模型的输入,相较于其它结构单一的模型,其平均准确率最优且高达99.01%。噪声对比实验表明:采用CWT变换后的数据能使故障诊断模型的鲁棒性及泛化性更强。

Cylindrical Guided Wave Signals for Underground Pipe Inspection using Different Continuous Wavelet Mother Functions

Over the past decade, wavelets provided a powerful and flexible set of tools for handling fundamental problems in science and engineering. Wavelet analyses are being used for solving problems in different engineering areas like audio de-noising, signal compression, object detection, image decomposition, speech recognition etc. Wavelet analysis employs orthonormal as well as non-orthonornal functions.
