Abstract
According to one embodiment, a diagnostic method includes changing a position of a mechanical structure to be diagnosed with a drive unit based on an acceleration command, the acceleration command being generated based on a log swept sine (LOGSS) signal, calculating an impulse response based on the acceleration command and measured acceleration of the mechanical structure, the measured acceleration being measured by an accelerometer, analyzing at least one of a linear characteristic and a nonlinear characteristic relating to the mechanical structure based on the impulse response, and diagnosing the mechanical structure based on the at least one of the linear characteristic and the nonlinear characteristic relating to the mechanical structure.
