Building vibration monitoring based on digital optical cameras

Abstract

The complex and process-critical conditions of machineries are needed to be continuously monitored in order for incipient breakdown to detect and ensure its high performance and operating safety. The change in the resonant frequency is focused by the spectrum analysis which is caused by the structural degradation and for health monitoring, useful information is produced. A test signal is required by the spectral analysis for health monitoring of structural condition. A test signal is the easiest way for structural spectral characteristics measurement but during every measurement, a structure vibration is impractical. Several techniques are presented for the condition of a machine depending on the application monitoring. The structure health would be able to be monitored if structural vibrations are utilized for spectral characteristics measurement due to wind and ground motion. The vision-based monitoring with the sources of errors are detailed and presented in this paper. Different parameters are observed for the different signals, unify the scale and can also be used to signals errors as compared with different levels of amplitudes. The PSNR and Structural Similarity are analyzed, the PSNR value is obtained in the range of 40 dB to 50 dB and the SSIM values are nearby to the 1 for all the signals. The MAPE and MAE values obtained by the presented technique are less for all the signal samples. The presented method outperforms the existed technique by 3.21 % to 44.02 % in form of MAPE. The presented method is 3.21 % to 44.02 % better than the previously existed technique in form of MAPE. The percentage improvement of the presented method outperforms by 33.93 % and 42.43 % in terms of MAE.
