Remaining useful life (RUL) is a crucial indictor to measure the performance degradation of machine tools. It directly affects the accuracy of maintenance decision-making, thus affecting operational reliability of machine tools. Currently, most RUL prediction methods are for the parts. However, due to the interaction among the parts, even RUL of all the parts cannot reflect the real RUL of the whole machine. Therefore, an RUL prediction method for the whole machine is needed. To predict RUL of the whole machine, this paper proposes an RUL prediction method with dynamic prediction objects based on meta-action theory. Firstly, machine tools are decomposed into the meta-action unit chains (MUCs) to obtain suitable prediction objects. Secondly, the machining precision unqualified rate (MPUR) control chart is used to conduct an out of control early warning for machine tools’ performance. At last, the Markov model is introduced to determine the prediction objects in next prediction and the Wiener degradation model is established to predict RUL of machine tools. According to the practical application, feasibility and effectiveness of the method is proved.

Abstract As an important energy storage device, lithium-ion batteries have vast applications in daily production and life. Therefore, the remaining useful life prediction of such batteries is of great significance, which can maintain the efficacy and reliability of the system powered by lithium-ion batteries. For predicting remaining useful life of lithium-ion batteries accurately, an adaptive hybrid battery model and an improved particle filter are developed. Firstly, the adaptive hybrid model is constructed, which is a combination of empirical model and long-short term memory neural network model such that it could characterize battery capacity degradation trend more effectively. In addition, the adaptive adjustment of the parameters for hybrid model is realized via optimization technique. Then, the beetle antennae search based particle filter is applied to update the battery states offline constructed by the proposed adaptive hybrid model, which can improve the estimation accuracy. Finally, remaining useful life short-term prediction is realized online based on long short-term memory neural network rolling prediction combined historical capacity with online measurements and latest offline states and model parameters. The battery data set published by NASA is used to verify the effectiveness of proposed strategy. The experimental results indicate that the proposed adaptive hybrid model can well represent the battery degradation characteristics, and have a higher accuracy compared with other models. The short-term remaining useful life prediction results have good performance with the errors of 1 cycle, 3 cycles, and 1 cycle, above results indicate proposed scheme has a good performance on short-term remaining useful life prediction.

For bearing remaining useful life prediction problem, the traditional machine-learning-based methods are generally short of feature representation ability and incapable of adaptive feature extraction. Although deep-learning-based remaining useful life prediction methods proposed in recent years can effectively extract discriminative features for bearing fault, these methods tend to less consider temporal information of fault degradation process. To solve this problem, a new remaining useful life prediction approach based on deep feature representation and long short-term memory neural network is proposed in this article. First, a new criterion, named support vector data normalized correlation coefficient, is proposed to automatically divide the whole bearing life as normal state and fast degradation state. Second, deep features of bearing fault with good representation ability can be obtained from convolutional neural network by means of the marginal spectrum in Hilbert–Huang transform of raw vibration signals and health state label. Finally, by considering the temporal information of degradation process, these features are fed into a long short-term memory neural network to construct a remaining useful life prediction model. Experiments are conducted on bearing data sets of IEEE PHM Challenge 2012. The results show the significance of performance improvement of the proposed method in terms of predictive accuracy and numerical stability.
