In internal combustion engine vibration modeling, it is typically assumed that the vibratory state of the engine does not influence the loads transmitted to the engine block from its moving internal components. This one-way-coupling assumption leads to energy conservation problems and does not account for Coriolis and gyroscopic interactions between the engine block and its rotating and reciprocating internal components. A new seven-degree-of-freedom engine vibration model has been developed that does not utilize this assumption and properly conserves energy. This paper presents time and frequency-domain comparisons of this model to experimental measurements made on an inline six-cylinder heavy-duty Diesel engine running at full load at peak-torque (1200 rpm) and rated (2100 rpm) speeds. The model successfully predicts the overall features of the engine’s vibratory output with model-experiment correlation coefficients as high as 70 percent for vibration frequencies up through third engine order. The results are robust to variations in the model parameters. Predictions are less successful at the detail level and at higher frequencies because of uncertainties in the actual imperfections of the test engine, and because of the influence of unmodeled engine components.

For the limitations of HHT of the internal combustion engine vibration signal analysis, and the problem of WVD cross-term suppression methods existing aggregation and cross-term component suppression conflicting, the time-frequency analysis method based on EMD white noise energy density distribution characteristics of the internal combustion engine vibration is proposed. First, the internal combustion engine vibration signal was decomposed into the independent series intrinsic mode function (IMF) with different characteristic time scales by using EMD decomposition method. Then, based on the energy density distribution characteristics of the white noise in EMD decomposition, used the distribution interval estimation curve of the IMFs energy density logarithm of white noise with the same length of the original signal as cordon for false pattern component, identified and eliminated false mode component of vibration signal IMFs component, analysised of each IMF with Wigner-Ville. Finally, the Wigner-Ville analysis results of each IMF were linear superposed in order to reconstruct the original signal time-frequency distribution. Simulation and engine vibration time-frequency analysis results show that this method has an excellent time-frequency characteristics, and can successfully extract feature information of the internal combustion engine cylinder head vibration signal.

Internal combustion engines are among the most commonly used propulsion units for drive systems in various industries such as land transportation, maritime transportation, and power generation. Their operation involves a continuous change of technical condition as a result of not only the combustion process but also their operation under conditions of variable load or ambient impact. It is therefore important to monitor the technical condition of internal combustion engines to ensure high performance and reliability over their lifetime. The article presents the test results obtained from incorrect operation of an internal combustion engine as a result of forced failures of the ignition and injection system. On this basis, a multicriteria comparison of the signal analysis of engine block vibrations was made, after the transformation of the signal from the time domain to the frequency domain, by using the induction technique obtained from the operation of decision tree algorithms. For this purpose, the amplitude spectrum in the frequency domain, scaled to absolute values of discretization for which teaching and testing data tables were created for successive harmonics, was determined for the engine block vibration signal being tested. On the basis of the developed algorithm using decision trees, a multicriteria data table was analyzed for which a compatibility path for the analyzed engine block vibration signal is created. In this way, it is confirmed with a specified degree of effectiveness, depending on the point of operation of the engine resulting from its crankshaft speed, that there is a possibility of detecting a preset ignition or injection system malfunction in the technical condition of the internal combustion engine with a probability up to about 72%.
