Physics-informed Online Engine Abnormal-Noise Detection
Acoustic-physical fusion for online detection and isolation of engine/bearing abnormal noise; patents granted in the US, Germany, and China

Project Overview
A barely audible noise can be the earliest signal of bearing failure. This project detects, isolates, and prognoses abnormal noise of vehicle bearings and engines acoustically.
Research Objectives
Acoustic-based wheel-bearing fault isolation and prognosis
Physics-data fused abnormal-noise judgment
On-vehicle online deployment
Methodology
Acoustic feature extraction fused with physical mechanism models for online detection, source isolation, and degradation prognosis.
