A Comprehensive Review of Fault Diagnosis and Prognosis Strategies for Three-Phase Induction Motors: 2010–2025

Abstract

Fault diagnosis is an active research area in different industrial sectors, and as induction motors are the central drive in many of them, a considerable number of papers have been explicitly devoted to the diagnosis of induction motor faults. With the drift towards industry 4.0, where more smart systems are being involved, mere detection of fault is no longer sufficient. Instead, detailed information regarding the nature, location, and severity of the fault, as well as determining how long is left before the end of the machine’s life, which is known as the estimation of the Remaining Useful Life (RUL) in a prognostic process, has become the new concern. Hereby, this article is intended to review works in the related field, covering research papers from the past decade, accelerating the wheel of knowledge to enhance what exists and opening doors for deeper exploration in other aspects of this field.
