Abstract :
Nonstationary gearbox vibration signals are analysed using a time-frequency (TF) representation which is chosen with respect to its interpretability. With its help, a crack transient is examined in detail and decomposed into three physical parts. Following this analysis, a time-domain signal is synthesized. Its good phase fitting proves on one hand, the validity of the analysis and on the other hand, the good accuracy of the TF representation chosen
