It has been shown that ultrasonic techniques work well for online measuring of circumferential oil film thickness profile in journal bearings; unfortunately, they can be limited by their measuring range and unable to capture details of the film all around the bearing circumference.

This work aims to address this variability by defining a general model for the frequency response functions of the blades, called a form, using mixtures of Gaussian processes.
