In this article, a fault diagnosis approach for a pantograph is developed with collected vibration data from a test rig. Ensemble empirical mode decomposition is used to decompose the signals to get intrinsic mode function, and four kinds of entropies (permu1tation entropy, approximate entropy, sample entropy, and fuzzy entropy) reflecting the working state are extracted as the inputs of the support vector machine based on particle swarm optimization algorithm support vector machine. The effect of data length, embedded dimension, and other parameters on calculation of the entropy value has also been studied. Multiple feature ranking criteria are used to select the useful features and improve the fault diagnosis accuracy of certain measurement points. Experimental results on pantograph vibration analysis have then confirmed that the proposed method provides an effective measure for pantograph diagnosis.

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.

Mode Decomposition

During the operation process of the high voltage circuit breaker, the changes of vibration signals can reflect the machinery states of the circuit breaker. The extraction of the vibration signal feature will directly influence the accuracy and practicability of fault diagnosis. This paper presents an extraction method based on ensemble empirical mode decomposition (EEMD). Firstly, the original vibration signals are decomposed into a finite number of stationary intrinsic mode functions (IMFs). Secondly, calculating the envelope of each IMF and separating the envelope by equal-time segment and then forming equal-time segment energy entropy to reflect the change of vibration signal are performed. At last, the energy entropies could serve as input vectors of support vector machine (SVM) to identify the working state and fault pattern of the circuit breaker. Practical examples show that this diagnosis approach can identify effectively fault patterns of HV circuit breaker.

Rolling bearings are fundamental elements that play a crucial role in the functioning of rotating machines; thus, fault diagnosis of rolling bearings is of great significance to reduce catastrophic failures and heavy economic loss. However, the vibration signals of rolling bearings are often nonlinear and nonstationary, resulting in difficulty for feature extraction and fault recognition. In this paper, a hybrid method for multiple fault diagnosis of rolling bearings is presented. The bearing vibration signals are decomposed with the improved complete ensemble empirical mode decomposition with adaptive noise (ICEEMDAN) to denoise and extract nonlinear entropy features. The nonlinear entropy features are further processed to select the more discriminative fault features and to reduce feature dimension. Then a multi-class intelligent recognition model based on ensemble support vector machine (ESVM) is constructed to diagnose different bearing fault modes as well as fault severities. The effectiveness of the proposed method is assessed via experimental case studies of rolling bearings under multiple operational conditions (i.e., speeds and loads). The results show that our method gives better diagnosis results as compared to some existing approaches.

Diagnosis Method

During the operation process of a gearbox, the vibration signals can reflect the dynamic states of the gearbox. The feature extraction of the vibration signal will directly influence the accuracy and effectiveness of fault diagnosis. One major challenge associated with the extraction process is the mode mixing, especially under such circumstance of intensive frequency. A novel fault diagnosis method based on frequency-modulated empirical mode decomposition is proposed in this paper. Firstly, several stationary intrinsic mode functions can be obtained after the initial vibration signal is processed using frequency-modulated empirical mode decomposition method. Using the method, the vibration signal feature can be extracted in unworkable region of the empirical mode decomposition. The method has the ability to separate such close frequency components, which overcomes the major drawback of the conventional methods. Numerical simulation results showed the validity of the developed signal processing method. Secondly, energy entropy was calculated to reflect the changes in vibration signals in relation to faults. At last, the energy distribution could serve as eigenvector of support vector machine to recognize the dynamic state and fault type of the gearbox. The analysis results from the gearbox signals demonstrate the effectiveness and veracity of the diagnosis approach.
