This paper presents a novel fault diagnosis method for analog circuits using ensemble empirical mode decomposition (EEMD), relative entropy, and extreme learning machine (ELM). First, nominal and faulty response waveforms of a circuit are measured, respectively, and then are decomposed into intrinsic mode functions (IMFs) with the EEMD method. Second, through comparing the nominal IMFs with the faulty IMFs, kurtosis and relative entropy are calculated for each IMF. Next, a feature vector is obtained for each faulty circuit. Finally, an ELM classifier is trained with these feature vectors for fault diagnosis. Via validating with two benchmark circuits, results show that the proposed method is applicable for analog fault diagnosis with acceptable levels of accuracy and time cost.

To address the problem that the faults in axial piston pumps are complex and difficult to effectively diagnose, an integrated hydraulic pump fault diagnosis method based on the modified ensemble empirical mode decomposition (MEEMD), autoregressive (AR) spectrum energy, and wavelet kernel extreme learning machine (WKELM) methods is presented in this paper. First, the non-linear and non-stationary hydraulic pump vibration signals are decomposed into several intrinsic mode function (IMF) components by the MEEMD method. Next, AR spectrum analysis is performed for each IMF component, in order to extract the AR spectrum energy of each component as fault characteristics. Then, a hydraulic pump fault diagnosis model based on WKELM is built, in order to extract the features and diagnose faults of hydraulic pump vibration signals, for which the recognition accuracy reached 100%. Finally, the fault diagnosis effect of the hydraulic pump fault diagnosis method proposed in this paper is compared with BP neural network, support vector machine (SVM), and extreme learning machine (ELM) methods. The hydraulic pump fault diagnosis method presented in this paper can diagnose faults of single slipper wear, single slipper loosing and center spring wear type with 100% accuracy, and the fault diagnosis time is only 0.002 s. The results demonstrate that the integrated hydraulic pump fault diagnosis method based on MEEMD, AR spectrum, and WKELM methods has higher fault recognition accuracy and faster speed than existing alternatives.

Ensemble empirical mode decomposition (EEMD) represents a valuable aid in empirical mode decomposition (EMD) and has been widely used in fault diagnosis of rolling element bearings. However, the intrinsic mode functions (IMFs) generated by EEMD often contain residual noise. In addition, adding different white Gaussian noise to the signal to be analyzed probably produces a different number of IMFs, and different number of IMFs makes difficult the averaging. To alleviate these two drawbacks, complete ensemble empirical mode decomposition with adaptive noise (CEEMDAN) was previously presented. Utilizing the advantages of CEEMDAN in extracting weak characteristics from noisy signals, a new fault diagnosis method of rolling element bearings based on CEEMDAN is proposed. With this method, a particular noise is added at each stage and after each IMF extraction, a unique residue is computed. In this way, this method solves the problem of the final averaging and obtains IMFs with less noise. A simulated signal is used to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed method, and the decomposition results show that the method obtains more accurate IMFs than the EEMD. To further demonstrate the proposed method, it is applied to fault diagnosis of locomotive rolling element bearings. The diagnosis results prove that the method based on CEEMDAN may reveal the fault characteristic information of rolling element bearings better.

In this paper, a new rotor fault diagnosis method was proposed based on rank-order morphological filter, ensemble empirical mode decomposition (EEMD), sample entropy and grey relation degree. Firstly, the sampled data was de-noised by rank-order morphological filter. Secondly, the de-noised signal was decomposed into a finite number of stationary intrinsic mode functions (IMFs). Thirdly, some IMFs containing the most dominant fault information were calculated the sample entropy for four rotor conditions. Finally, the grey relation degree between the symptom set and standard fault set was calculated as the identification evidence for fault diagnosis. The practical results show that this method is quite effective in rotor fault diagnosis. Its suitable for on-line monitoring and diagnosis of rotating machinery.

Bearing is a key component of satellite inertia actuators such as moment wheel assemblies (MWAs) and control moment gyros (CMGs), and its operating state is directly related to the performance and service life of satellites. However, because of the complexity of the vibration frequency components of satellite bearing assemblies and the small loading, normal running bearings normally present similar fault characteristics in long-term ground life experiments, which makes it difficult to judge the bearing fault status. This paper proposes an automatic fault diagnosis method for bearings based on a presented indicator called the characteristic frequency ratio. First, the vibration signals of various MWAs were picked up by the bearing vibration test. Then, the improved ensemble empirical mode decomposition (EEMD) method was introduced to demodulate the envelope of the bearing signals, and the fault characteristic frequencies of the vibration signals were acquired. Based on this, the characteristic frequency ratio for fault identification was defined, and a method for determining the threshold of fault judgment was further proposed. Finally, an automatic diagnosis process was proposed and verified by using different bearing fault data. The results show that the presented method is feasible and effective for automatic monitoring and diagnosis of bearing faults.

A gear transmission system is a complex nonstationary and nonlinear time-varying coupling system. When faults occur on gear system, it is difficult to extract the fault feature. In this paper, a novel fault diagnosis method based on ensemble empirical mode decomposition (EEMD) and Deep Briefs Network (DBN) is proposed to treat the vibration signals measured from gearbox. The original data is decomposed into a set of intrinsic mode functions (IMFs) using EEMD, and then main IMFs were chosen for reconstructed signal to suppress abnormal interference from noise. The reconstructed signals were regarded as input of DBN to identify gearbox working states and fault types. To verify the effectiveness of the EEMD-DBN in detecting the faults, a series of gear fault simulate experiments at different states were carried out. Results showed that the proposed method which coupled EEMD and DBN can improve the accuracy of gear fault identification and it is capable of applying to fault diagnosis in practical application.

In this paper, a novel fault diagnosis method for gear was approached based on morphological filter, ensemble empirical mode decomposition (EEMD), sample entropy and grey incidence. Firstly, in order to eliminate the influence of noises, the line structure element was selected for morphological filter to denoise the original signal. Secondly, denoised vibration signals were decomposed into a finite number of stationary intrinsic mode functions (IMF) and some containing the most dominant fault information were calculated the sample entropy. Finally, these sample entropies could serve as the feature vectors, the grey incidence of different gear vibration signals was calculated to identify the fault pattern and condition. Practical results show that this method can be used in gear fault diagnosis effectively.

Sensitive and accurate fault features from the vibration signals of planetary gearboxes are essential for fault diagnosis, in which extreme learning machine (ELM) techniques have been widely adopted. To increase the sensitivity of extracted features fed in ELM, a novel feature extraction method is put forward, which takes advantage of the transient dynamics and the reconstructed high-dimensional data from the original vibration signal. First, based on fast kurtosis analysis, the range of transient dynamics of a vibration signal is located. Next, with the extracted kurtosis information, with variational mode decomposition, a series of intrinsic mode functions are decomposed; the ones that fall into the obtained ranges are selected as transient features, corresponding to maximum kurtosis value. Fed by the transient features, a hierarchical ELM model is well-trained for fault classification. Furthermore, a denoising auto-encoder is used to optimize input weight and threshold of implicit learning node of ELM, satisfying orthogonal condition to realize the layering of its hidden layers. Finally, a numerical case and an experiment are conducted to verify the performance of the proposed method. In comparison with its counterparts, the proposed method has a better classification accuracy in the aiding of transient features.

This paper presents an improved gearbox fault diagnosis approach by integrating complementary ensemble empirical mode decomposition (CEEMD) with permutation entropy (PE). The presented approach identifies faults appearing in a gearbox system based on PE values calculated from selected intrinsic mode functions (IMFs) of vibration signals decomposed by CEEMD. Specifically, CEEMD is first used to decompose vibration signals characterizing various defect severities into a series of IMFs. Then, filtered vibration signals are obtained from appropriate selection of IMFs, and correlation coefficients between the filtered signal and each IMF are used as the basis for useful IMFs selection. Subsequently, PE values of those selected IMFs are utilized as input features to a support vector machine (SVM) classifier for characterizing the defect severity of a gearbox. Case study conducted on a gearbox system indicates the effectiveness of the proposed approach for identifying the gearbox faults.

A novel fault diagnosis method, named CPS, is proposed based on the combination of CEEMDAN (complete ensemble empirical mode decomposition with adaptive noise), PSM (periodic segment matrix), and SVD (singular value decomposition). Firstly, the collected vibration signals are decomposed into a set of IMFs using CEEMDAN. Secondly, the PSM of the selected IMFs is constructed. Thirdly, singular values are obtained by SVD conducted on the space of PSM. Fourthly, the impulse components are enhanced by the singular value reconstruction with the first maximal singular value. Finally, the squared envelope spectra of the reconstructed signals are used to diagnose the wheelset bearing faults. The effectiveness of the proposed CPS has been verified by simulations and experiments. Compared to the well-known Hankel-based SVD, the proposed CPS performs better at extracting the weak periodic impulse responses from the measured signals with strong noise and interferences.

This study presents a comprehensive fault diagnosis method for rolling bearings. The method includes two parts: the fault detection and the fault classification. In the stage of fault detection, a threshold based on refined composite multiscale dispersion entropy (RCMDE) at a local maximum scale is defined to judge the health state of rolling bearings. If the bearing is in fault, a generalized multi-scale feature extraction method is developed to fully extract fault information by combining fast ensemble empirical mode decomposition (FEEMD) and RCMDE. Firstly, the fault vibration signals are decomposed into a set of intrinsic mode functions (IMFs) by FEEMD. Secondly, the RCMDE value of multiple IMFs is calculated to generate a candidate feature pool. Then, the maximum-relevance and minimum-redundancy (mRMR) approach is employed to select the sensitive features from the candidate feature pool to construct the final feature vectors, and the final feature vectors are fed into random forest (RF) classifier to identify different fault working conditions. Finally, experiments and comparative research are carried out to verify the performance of the proposed method. The results show that the proposed method can detect faults effectively. Meanwhile, it has a more robust and excellent ability to identify different fault types and severity compared with other conventional approaches.
