A hydraulic axial piston pump is the essential component of a hydraulic transmission system and plays a key role in modern industry. Considering varying working conditions and the implicity of frequent faults, it is difficult to accurately monitor the machinery faults in the actual operating process by using current fault diagnosis methods. Hence, it is urgent and significant to investigate effective and precise fault diagnosis approaches for pumps. Owing to the advantages of intelligent fault diagnosis methods in big data processing, methods based on deep learning have accomplished admirable performance for fault diagnosis of rotating machinery. The prevailing convolutional neural network (CNN) displays desirable automatic learning ability. Therefore, an integrated intelligent fault diagnosis method is proposed based on CNN and continuous wavelet transform (CWT), combining the feature extraction and classification. Firstly, CWT is used to convert the raw vibration signals into time-frequency representations and achieve the extraction of image features. Secondly, a new framework of deep CNN is established via designing the convolutional layers and sub-sampling layers. The learning process and results are visualized by t-distributed stochastic neighbor embedding (t-SNE). The results of the experiment present a higher classification accuracy compared with other models. It is demonstrated that the proposed approach is effective and stable for fault diagnosis of a hydraulic axial piston pump.

Rolling bearings are important in rotating machinery and equipment. This research proposes variational mode decomposition (VMD)-DenseNet to diagnose faults in bearings. The research feature involves analyzing the Hilbert spectrum through VMD whereby the vibration signal is converted into an image. Healthy and various faults show different characteristics on the image, thus there is no need to select features. Coupled with the lightweight network, DenseNet, for image classification and prediction. DenseNet is used to build a model of motor fault diagnosis; its structure is simple, and the calculation speed is fast. The method of using DenseNet for image feature learning can perform feature extraction on each image block of the image, providing full play to the advantages of deep learning to obtain accurate results. This research method is verified by the data of the time-varying bearing experimental device at the University of Ottawa. Through the four links of signal acquisition, feature extraction, fault identification, and prediction, a mechanical intelligent fault diagnosis system has established the state of bearing. The experimental results show that the method can accurately identify four common motor faults, with a VMD-DenseNet prediction accuracy rate of 92%. It provides a more effective method for bearing fault diagnosis and has a wide range of application prospects in fault diagnosis engineering. In the future, online and timely diagnosis can be achieved for intelligent fault diagnosis.

Correlation Information

Modern machinery becomes more precious with the advance of science, and fault diagnosis is vital for avoiding economical losses or casualties. Among massive diagnosis methods, deep learning algorithms stand out to open an era of intelligent fault diagnosis. Deep residual networks are the state-of-the-art deep learning models which can continuously improve performance by deepening the network structures. However, in vibration-based fault diagnosis, the transient property instability of vibration signal usually calls for time–frequency analysis methods, and the characters of time–frequency matrices are distinct from standard images, which brings some natural limitations for the diagnosis performance of deep learning algorithms. To handle this issue, an enhanced deep residual network named the multilevel correlation stack-deep residual network is proposed in this article. Wavelet packet transform is used to preprocess the sensor signal, and then the proposed multilevel correlation stack-deep residual network uses kernels with different shapes to fully dig various kinds of useful information from any local regions of the processed input. Experiments on two rolling bearing datasets are carried out. Test results show that the multilevel correlation stack-deep residual network exhibits a more satisfactory classification performance than original deep residual networks and other similar methods, revealing significant potentials for realistic fault diagnosis applications.

Recent convolutional neural network (CNN) models in image processing can be used as feature-extraction methods to achieve high accuracy as well as automatic processing in bearing fault diagnosis. The combination of deep learning methods with appropriate signal representation techniques has proven its efficiency compared with traditional algorithms. Vital electrical machines require a strict monitoring system, and the accuracy of these machines’ monitoring systems takes precedence over any other factors. In this paper, we propose a new method for diagnosing bearing faults under variable shaft speeds using acoustic emission (AE) signals. Our proposed method predicts not only bearing fault types but also the degradation level of bearings. In the proposed technique, AE signals acquired from bearings are represented by spectrograms to obtain as much information as possible in the time–frequency domain. Feature extraction and classification processes are performed by deep learning using EfficientNet and a stochastic line-search optimizer. According to our various experiments, the proposed method can provide high accuracy and robustness under noisy environments compared with existing AE-based bearing fault diagnosis methods.
