This paper discusses the use of Maximum Correlation kurtosis deconvolution (MCKD) method as a pre-processor in fast spectral kurtosis (FSK) method in order to find the compound fault characteristics of the bearing, by enhancing the vibration signals. FSK only extracts the resonance bands which have maximum kurtosis value, but sometimes it might possible that faults occur in the resonance bands which has low kurtosis value, also the faulty signals missed due to noise interference. In order to overcome these limitations FSK used with MCKD, MCKD extracts various faults present in different resonance frequency bands; also detect the weak impact component, as MCKD also dealt with strong background noise. By obtaining the MCKD parameters like, filter length & deconvolution period, we can extract the compound fault feature characteristics.

In actual engineering applications, inevitable noise seriously affects the accuracy of fault diagnosis for rotating machinery. To effectively identify the fault classes of rotating machinery under noise interference, an efficient fault diagnosis method without additional denoising procedures is proposed. First, a one-dimensional deep residual shrinkage network, which directly takes the raw vibration signals contaminated by noise as input, is developed to realize end-to-end fault diagnosis. Then, to further enhance the noise immunity of the diagnosis model, the first layer of the model is set to a wide convolution layer to extract short time features. Moreover, an adaptive batch normalization algorithm (AdaBN) is introduced into the diagnosis model to enhance the adaptability to noise. Experimental results illustrate that the fault diagnosis model for rotating machinery based on one-dimensional deep residual shrinkage network with a wide convolution layer (1D-WDRSN) can accurately identify the fault classes even under noise interference.

A combination of spectral kurtosis (SK), based on Choi–Williams distribution (CWD) and hidden Markov models (HMM), accurately identifies initial gearbox failures and diagnoses fault types of gearboxes. First, using the LMD algorithm, five types of gearbox vibration signals are collected and decomposed into several product function (PF) components and the multicomponent signals are decomposed into single-component signals. Then, the kurtosis value of each component is calculated, and the component with the largest kurtosis value is selected for the CWD-SK analysis. According to the calculated CWD-SK value, the characteristics of the initial failure of the gearbox are extracted. This method not only avoids the difficulty of selecting the window function, but also provides original eigenvalues for fault feature classification. In the end, from the CWD-SK characteristic parameters at each characteristic frequency, the characteristic sequence based on CWD-SK is obtained with HMM training and diagnosis. The experimental results show that this method can effectively identify the initial fault characteristics of the gearbox, and also accurately classify the fault characteristics of different degrees.

The condition diagnosis of rotating machinery depends largely on the feature analysis of vibration signals measured for the condition diagnosis. However, the signals measured from rotating machinery usually are nonstationary and nonlinear and contain noise. The useful fault features are hidden in the heavy background noise. In this paper, a novel fault diagnosis method for rotating machinery based on multiwavelet adaptive threshold denoising and mutation particle swarm optimization (MPSO) is proposed. Geronimo, Hardin, and Massopust (GHM) multiwavelet is employed for extracting weak fault features under background noise, and the method of adaptively selecting appropriate threshold for multiwavelet with energy ratio of multiwavelet coefficient is presented. The six nondimensional symptom parameters (SPs) in the frequency domain are defined to reflect the features of the vibration signals measured in each state. Detection index (DI) using statistical theory has been also defined to evaluate the sensitiveness of SP for condition diagnosis. MPSO algorithm with adaptive inertia weight adjustment and particle mutation is proposed for condition identification. MPSO algorithm effectively solves local optimum and premature convergence problems of conventional particle swarm optimization (PSO) algorithm. It can provide a more accurate estimate on fault diagnosis. Practical examples of fault diagnosis for rolling element bearings are given to verify the effectiveness of the proposed method.

Abstract Considering the vibration signals are easily contaminated by the strong and highly non-stationary noise, extracting more sensitive and effective features from the noised vibration signals is still a great challenge for intelligent fault diagnosis of rotating machinery. This paper proposed a multiscale kernel-based network with improved attention mechanism (IA-MKNet) to overcome this challenge. In the proposed method, an improved attention mechanism (IAM) for multiscale convolution is firstly developed to adaptively extract the meaningful fault features and automatically suppress noise. Then, due to the inherent multiple time characteristics of vibration signals, an adaptive multiscale kernel-based residual block (AMKRB) with IAM is designed to capture fault features in multi-time scales of vibration signals. Finally, a combination strategy based on an adaptive ensemble learner is proposed to increase the diversity of features by fusing the outputs of multiple IA-MKNets, which further improves diagnosis accuracy and stability. The experimental results, verified by two bearing datasets with noise interference, confirm that the proposed method improves the fault diagnosis accuracy of rotating machinery under noisy environment, which performance is superior to the other five benchmark methods.

The extraction of the vibration impulse signal plays a crucial role in the fault diagnosis of rolling element bearing. However, the detection of weak fault signals generally suffers the strong background noise. To solve this problem, a new adaptive multiscale enhanced combination gradient morphological filter (MECGMF) is proposed for the fault diagnosis of rolling element bearing. In this method, according to the filtering ability of four basic morphological filter operators, an enhanced combination gradient morphological operation (ECGMF) is first proposed. This design enhances the ability of MECGMF to extract impulse signals from strong background noise. And accordingly, a new adaptive selection strategy named kurtosis fault feature ratio (KFFR) is proposed to select an optimal structuring element (SE) scale. Subsequently, the optimal SE scale is the largest measure of multiscale morphological filtering for extracting bearing fault information. In the meanwhile, the effectiveness of the proposed method is verified by simulation and experiment. Finally, the experimental results demonstrate that MECGMF can effectively restrain the noise interference and extract fault characteristic signals of rolling element bearing from strong background noise. Moreover, comparative tests show that the proposed method is more effective in detecting wind turbine bearing failures.

The evolutionary periodogram has been introduced to mechanical fault diagnosis and relationship between the evolutionary periodogram and time-frequency spectrogram has been investigated. The evolutionary periodogram is unveiled as an especially windowed spectrogram, and is applied to gearbox fault diagnosis. It has been shown that the window used in the evolutionary periodogram is not a single function but a combination of a set of functions. Two cases of gearbox diagnosis are presented as examples of application. Vibration signals and a synchronous signal are collected for the analysis. The time synchronous averaging is used to reduce background noise or random transients to enhance the periodicity of a specific gear rotation. The performance of the evolutionary periodogram has been compared with the spectrogram for gear diagnosis, showing that the evolutionary periodogram is an alternative technique in time-frequency analysis for fault detection and better resolution can be obtained as more choices are offered by the way of constructing the window.

The safety of electric power networks depends on the health of the transformer. However, once a variety of transformer failure occurs, it will not only reduce the reliability of the power system but also cause major accidents and huge economic losses. Until now, many diagnosis methods have been proposed to monitor the operation of the transformer. Most of these methods cannot be detected and diagnosed online and are prone to noise interference and high maintenance cost that will cause obstacles to the real-time monitoring system of the transformer. This paper presents a full-time online fault monitoring system for cast-resin transformer and proposes an overheating fault diagnosis method based on infrared thermography (IRT) images. First, the normal and fault IRT images of the cast-resin transformer are collected by the proposed thermal camera monitoring system. Next is the model training for the Wasserstein Autoencoder Reconstruction (WAR) model and the Differential Image Classification (DIC) model. The differential image can be acquired by the calculation of pixel-wise absolute difference between real images and regenerated images. Finally, in the test phase, the well-trained WAR and DIC models are connected in series to form a module for fault diagnosis. Compared with the existing deep learning algorithms, the experimental results demonstrate the great advantages of the proposed model, which can obtain the comprehensive performance with lightweight, small storage size, rapid inference time and adequate diagnostic accuracy.

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.

Diagnosis Model

To achieve a more desirable fault diagnosis accuracy by applying multi-domain features of vibration signals, it is significative and challenging to refine the most representative and intrinsic feature components from the original high dimensional feature space. A novel dimensionality reduction method for fault diagnosis is proposed based on local Fisher discriminant analysis (LFDA) which takes both label information and local geometric structure of the high dimensional features into consideration. Multi-kernel trick is introduced into the LFDA to improve its performance in dealing with the nonlinearity of mapping high dimensional feature space into a lower one. To obtain an optimal diagnosis accuracy by the reduced features of low dimensionality, binary particle swarm optimization (BPSO) algorithm is utilized to search for the most appropriate parameters of kernels and K-nearest neighbor (kNN) recognition model. Samples with labels are used to train the optimal multi-kernel LFDA and kNN (OMKLFDA-kNN) fault diagnosis model to obtain the optimal transformation matrix. Consequently, the trained fault diagnosis model implements the recognition of machinery health condition with the most representative feature space of vibration signals. A bearing fault diagnosis experiment is conducted to verify the effectiveness of proposed diagnostic approach. Performance comparison with some other methods are investigated, and the improvement for fault diagnosis of the proposed method are confirmed in different aspects.
