Time-frequency distributions for crack detection in rotors - a fundamental note

Abstract This correspondence gives insight into properties of Wigner–Ville time–frequency power spectral analysis and also suggests better time–frequency power spectral tools to study cracks in rotors. Simulation results show that Choi–Williams and hyperbolic distributions can be effectively used for crack detection in rotors.
