In recent years, the internet of things (IoT) represents the main core of Industry 4.0 for cyber-physic systems (CPS) in order to improve the industrial environment. Accordingly, the application of IoT and CPS has been expanded in applied electrical systems and machines. However, cybersecurity represents the main challenge of the implementation of IoT against cyber-attacks. In this regard, this paper proposes a new IoT architecture based on utilizing machine learning techniques to suppress cyber-attacks for providing reliable and secure online monitoring for the induction motor status. In particular, advanced machine learning techniques are utilized here to detect cyber-attacks and motor status with high accuracy. The proposed infrastructure validates the motor status via communication channels and the internet connection with economical cost and less effort on connecting various networks. For this purpose, the CONTACT Element platform for IoT is adopted to visualize the processed data based on machine learning techniques through a graphical dashboard. Once the cyber-attacks signal has been detected, the proposed IoT platform based on machine learning will be visualized automatically as fake data on the dashboard of the IoT platform. Different experimental scenarios with data acquisition are carried out to emphasize the performance of the suggested IoT topology. The results confirm that the proposed IoT architecture based on the machine learning technique can effectively visualize all faults of the motor status as well as the cyber-attacks on the networks. Moreover, all faults of the motor status and the fake data, due to the cyber-attacks, are successfully recognized and visualized on the dashboard of the proposed IoT platform with high accuracy and more clarified visualization, thereby contributing to enhancing the decision-making about the motor status. Furthermore, the introduced IoT architecture with Random Forest algorithm provides an effective detection for the faults on motor due to the vibration under industrial conditions with excellent accuracy of 99.03% that is significantly greater than the other machine learning algorithms. Besides, the proposed IoT has low latency to recognize the motor faults and cyber-attacks to present them in the main dashboard of the IoT platform.

Induction motors are important equipment in modern industry. However, the occurrence of fatigue failure following an extended period of operation invariably results in a catastrophic failure. As a result, monitoring and diagnosing induction motors is critical to avoiding unplanned shutdowns caused by premature failures. This article aims to develop an effective method for motor fault detection using time–frequency contents of vibration signals and an attention-based convolutional neural network model. First, the vibration signals are collected and labeled into five different categories: normal condition, outer ring fault, inner ring fault, misalignment condition, and broken rotor bar. Then, using the Morlet function, continuous wavelet transform (CWT) converts the vibratory time-series signals to the scalogram feature images. The time–frequency feature images are created after downsampling and converting the measured vibration signals to the frequency domain. These images are then resized and fed into the proposed convolutional attention neural network (CANN) to identify various induction motor failures. The experimental results demonstrate that the suggested model can provide an excellent diagnosis accuracy of 99.43%, significantly better than the state-of-the-art deep learning approaches for fault diagnosis. Moreover, the developed model’s robustness is validated against adversarial attacks based on the fast gradient sign method (FGSM) by including white Gaussian noise.

This paper introduces a new intelligent integration between an IoT platform and deep learning neural network (DNN) algorithm for the online monitoring of computer numerical control (CNC) machines. The proposed infrastructure is utilized for monitoring the cutting process while maintaining the cutting stability of CNC machines in order to ensure effective cutting processes that can help to increase the quality of products. For this purpose, a force sensor is installed in the milling CNC machine center to measure the vibration conditions. Accordingly, an IoT architecture is designed to connect the sensor node and the cloud server to capture the real-time machine’s status via message queue telemetry transport (MQTT) protocol. To classify the different cutting conditions (i.e., stable cutting and unstable cuttings), an improved model of DNN is designed in order to maintain the healthy state of the CNC machine. As a result, the developed deep learning can accurately investigate if the transmitted data of the smart sensor via the internet is real cutting data or fake data caused by cyber-attacks or the inefficient reading of the sensor due to the environment temperature, humidity, and noise signals. The outstanding results are obtained from the proposed approach indicating that deep learning can outperform other traditional machine learning methods for vibration control. The Contact elements for IoT are utilized to display the cutting information on a graphical dashboard and monitor the cutting process in real-time. Experimental verifications are performed to conduct different cutting conditions of slot milling while implementing the proposed deep machine learning and IoT-based monitoring system. Diverse scenarios are presented to verify the effectiveness of the developed system, where it can disconnect immediately to secure the system automatically when detecting the cyber-attack and switch to the backup broker to continue the runtime operation.
