Abstract

The integration of Sensing Machine Elements (SME) is a promising approach to obtain reliable data about relevant process and state variables of technical systems. However, the quality and reliability of the provided data strongly depends on the corresponding calculation model of the SME and the therein included uncertainty. Consequently, in this contribution, the calculation model of a sensory utilized rolling bearing, as exemplary SME, is systematically analyzed using existing methods and tools to identify uncertainty that critically affects the quality and reliability of the data provided.

Keywords: uncertainty, systematic approach, design methodology, sensing machine elements, sensory utilised rolling bearing
