Abstract

A method for detecting a structural fault of an electric motor. The method includes: (i) acquiring a measurement signal of a physical parameter representative of the rotation of the electric motor, (ii) obtaining the high frequency component of the measurement signal, resulting in a corrected signal, (iii) applying a set of band-pass filters to the corrected signal resulting in a set of filtered corrected signals, (iv) determining a stator frequency and a rotor frequency, (v) computing a frequency signature vector, (vi) computing a temporal symptom vector from the frequency signature vector and the set of filtered corrected signals, and (vii) detecting a structural fault of the electric motor from the determined temporal symptom vector and from a classifier model.
