The dataset includes vibration signatures from both healthy and faulty main journal bearings of an internal combustion engine, captured with a tri-axial accelerometer mounted on the bearings' housing. The engine was exposed to various climatic and operating conditions, including variations in temperature and humidity, and tested at different engine rotation speeds, following a standard, MIL-STD-810G. The data was collected in a state-of-the-art climatic and vibration chamber to simulate real-world environmental conditions.
