It can be seen that the obvious peak in frequency spectrum is 8.95 Hz, which is equal to the characteristic frequency of floating tile wear.
This paper analyzes the failure forms of rolling bearing, fault characteristic frequency and vibration mechanism and application of wavelet de-noising, wavelet packet energy extraction and support vector machine (SVM) and other technologies, using a rolling bearing fault intelligent diagnosis method based on support vector machine (SVM), verified by simulation experiments.
The Bode magnitude and phase plots depicted in Figures 3(b) and 3(c) clearly show increase of magnitude and decrease of characteristic frequency ([[omega].sub.max]) with the increase of [R.sub.ct].
The definition of characteristic frequency [f.sub.T] is the frequency f that the max SK [K.sub.max] is corresponding in the specific condition.
To obtain the characteristic frequency, the relative permittivity is needed at various frequencies.
Using RRM postulates, a computationally identified characteristic frequency for a protein functional group can be used to calculate the wavelength of applied irradiation [lambda] which assumingly would activate this protein sequence and modify its bioactivity
In an MRI machine, fluorine emits a strong signal with a characteristic frequency. Tuning the MRI equipment to that frequency creates a clear image of the tumor without showing surrounding tissues.
