Abstract

Persistent oscillations are a common problem in process plants since they cause excessive variation in process variables and may compromise the product quality. This paper proposes a method for detecting oscillations in non-stationary time series based on the statistical properties of zero-crossings. The main development presented is a technique to remove a non-stationary trend component from a signal before applying an oscillation detection procedure. The properties and performance of the method are analyzed using simulation experiments, a comparative study using industrial benchmark data, and tests with paperboard machine data. Finally, the simulation and industrial results are analyzed and discussed.
