Bearing performance degradation assessment is of great significance for proactive maintenance and near-zero downtime. For this purpose, a novel assessment method is proposed based on lifting wavelet packet symbolic entropy (LWPSE) and support vector data description (SVDD). LWPSE is presented for feature extraction by jointing use of lifting wavelet packet transform and symbolic entropy. Firstly, the LWPSEs of bearing signals from normal bearing condition are extracted to train an SVDD model by fitting a tight hypersphere around normal samples. Then, the relative distance from the LWPSEs of testing signals to the hypersphere boundary is calculated as a quantitative index for bearing performance degradation assessment. The feasibility and efficiency of the proposed method were validated by the life-cycle data obtained from NASA’s prognostics data repository and the comparison with Hidden Markov Model (HMM). Finally, the assessment results were verified by the envelope spectrum analysis method based on empirical mode decomposition and Hilbert envelope demodulation.

A new monitoring and diagnostics method using support vector data description (SVDD) is proposed which only needs samples under healthy condition. The method is an ideal candidate for coping with the problem of a shortage of the unhealthy condition samples. We firstly select several nodes of the monitored structure, and decompose the signals from these nodes with wavelet packet transform (WPT). To monitoring structural health efficiently, we assemble a combine feature by using wavelet packet energy distributions of these nodes. The feature is then applied as the input of a developed SVDD classifier. Experiment shows that the SVDD classifier was able to distinguish the normal and abnormal condition ideally, and can be used as an automation approach for structural health monitoring.

Bearing performance degradation assessment is more effective than fault diagnosis to realize condition-based maintenance. In this article, a hybrid model is proposed for it based on a support vector data description (SVDD) and fuzzy c-means (FCM). SVDD, which holds excellent robustness to outliers, is used to obtain the clustering centre of normal state. The subjection of tested data to normal state is defined as a degradation indicator, which is computed by a FCM algorithm with final failure data. The results of applying this hybrid model to an accelerated bearing life test show that it can effectively assess bearing performance degradation. Furthermore, it is robust to the outliers in the training set and is not influenced by the Gaussian kernel parameter.

Aiming at the irregularity of the fault characteristics of the helicopter main reducer planetary gear, a fault diagnosis method based on support vector data description (SVDD) is proposed. The working condition of the helicopter is complex and changeable, and the fault characteristics of the planetary gear also show irregularity with the change of working conditions. It is impossible to diagnose the fault by the regularity of a single fault feature; so a method of SVDD based on Gaussian kernel function is used. By connecting the energy characteristics and fault characteristics of the helicopter main reducer running state signal and performing vector quantization, the planetary gear of the helicopter main reducer is characterized, and simultaneously couple the multi-channel information, which can accurately characterize the operational state of the planetary gear’s state.
