Predicting faults in diesel engines with kernel machines regression techniques
摘要
Predictive maintenance has become a vital tool in minimizing expenses and operational setbacks while proactively averting potential failures. Its scope extends across various sectors, encompassing critical component upkeep crucial for ensuring public safety. Addressing the challenge of preempting catastrophic failures in diesel engines, this study uses a simulated dataset featuring 3500 realistic failure scenarios considering the engine cylinder, coupled with a crankshaft torsional vibration model. The research proposes employing artificial intelligence regression techniques, specifically support vector regression and Gaussian processes, to forecast diesel engine faults. This methodology is applied in conjunction with an engine simulator to evaluate its efficacy and precision. Notably, the Gaussian process regressor exhibits superior performance, achieving an RMSE value of 0.015 ± 0.001%.
