Detection And Diagnosis

Rolling element bearings find widespread domestic and industrial application. Defects in bearing unless detected in time may lead to malfunctioning of the machinery. Different methods are used for detection and diagnosis of the bearing defects. This paper is intended as a tutorial overview of bearing vibration signature analysis as a medium for fault detection. An explanation for the causes for the defects is discussed. Vibration measurement in both time domain and frequency domain is presented. Recent trends in research on the detection of the defects in bearings have been included.

Detection And Diagnosis

In this paper, we introduce a new bearing fault detection and diagnosis scheme based on hidden Markov modeling (HMM) of vibration signals. Features extracted from amplitude demodulated vibration signals from both normal and faulty bearings were used to train HMMs to represent various bearing conditions. The features were based on the reflection coefficients of the polynomial transfer function of an autoregressive model of the vibration signals. Faults can be detected online by monitoring the probabilities of the pretrained HMM for the normal case given the features extracted from the vibration signals. The new technique also allows for diagnosis of the type of bearing fault by selecting the HMM with the highest probability. The new scheme was also adapted to diagnose multiple bearing faults. In this adapted scheme, features were based on the selected node energies of a wavelet packet decomposition of the vibration signal. For each fault, a different set of nodes, which correlates with the fault, is chosen. Both schemes were tested with experimental data collected from an accelerometer measuring the vibration from the drive-end ball bearing of an induction motor (Reliance Electric 2 HP IQPreAlert) driven mechanical system and have proven to be very accurate.

Fault Feature Extraction

In vibration analysis, fault feature extraction from strong background noises is of great importance. Frequency band entropy based on short-time Fourier transform illustrates the complexity of every frequency component in the frequency domain, and it can be used to detect the periodical components hidden in the signal. This article shows how the frequency band entropy offers a robust way in detecting faults even when the signal is under strong masking noises. Furthermore, frequency band entropy provides a way of blindly designing optimal band-pass filters. The filtering signal combined with envelope analysis is helpful in fault diagnosis. The effectiveness of the proposed method is demonstrated on both simulated and actual data from rolling bearings.
