Abstract
A method for filling a gap of missing vibration data in a set of vibration data. At least one reference waveform on a first side of the gap is selected and at least one adjacent waveform on an opposing second side of the gap is selected. It is determined whether the gap is in a section of the vibration data where a frequency of the vibration data is one of increasing, decreasing, and steady state. Where the gap is in a section of the vibration data where the frequency of the vibration data is changing substantially linearly, an analytical method is applied to at least one of the at least one reference waveform and the at least one adjacent waveform to approximate the vibration data that is missing in the gap. Where the gap is in a section of the vibration data where the frequency of the vibration data is changing substantially exponentially, a numerical method is applied to at least one of the at least one reference waveform and the at least one adjacent waveform to approximate the vibration data that is missing in the gap. Where the gap is in a section of the vibration data where the frequency of the vibration data is substantially steady state, at least one of the at least one reference waveform and the at least one adjacent waveform is copied to approximate the vibration data that is missing in the gap. The approximated vibration data is presented to a user.
