This paper presents an effective approach for aero-engine fault diagnosis with focus on rub-impact, through combination of improved local discriminant bases (LDB) with support vector machine (SVM). The improved LDB algorithm, using both the normalized energy difference and the relative entropy as quantification measures, is applied to choose the optimal set of orthogonal subspaces for wavelet packet transform- (WPT-) based signal decomposition. Then two optimal sets of orthogonal subspaces have been obtained and the energy features extracted from those subspaces appearing in both sets will be selected as input to a SVM classifier to diagnose aero-engine faults. Experiment studies conducted on an aero-engine rub-impact test system have verified the effectiveness of the proposed approach for classifying working conditions of aero-engines.

In the technology of motor fault diagnosis, current monitoring methods have become a new trend in motor fault diagnosis. This paper presents a motor fault diagnosis method based on Park vector and wavelet neural network. This method uses the stator current as the object of study. Firstly, it uses Park vector to deal with the stator current and filter out fundamental frequency component, thus the characteristics component of motor broken-bar will be separated from fundamental frequency component; Secondly, it uses five layers wavelet packet decomposition to pick up fault characteristic signal; Finally, we distinguish the fault by BP neural network, and use the simulation software of MATLAB to realize it. The test results show that: This method can detect the existence of motor broken-bar fault, and has a good value in engineering.

In order to improve the fault detection accuracy for rolling bearings, an automated fault diagnosis system is presented based on lifting wavelet packet transform (LWPT), sample entropy (SampEn), and classifier ensemble. Bearing vibration signals are firstly decomposed into different frequency subbands through a three-level LWPT, resulting in a total of 8 frequency-band signals throughout the third layers of the LWPT decomposition tree. The SampEns of all the 8 components are then calculated as feature vectors. Such a feature extraction paradigm is expected to depict complexity, irregularity, and nonstationarity of bearing vibrations. Moreover, a novel classifier ensemble is proposed to alleviate the effect of initial parameters on the performance of member classifiers and to improve classification effectiveness. Experiments were conducted on electric motor bearings considering various set of fault categories and fault severity levels. Experimental results demonstrate the proposed diagnosis system can effectively improve bearing fault recognition accuracy and stability in comparison with diagnosis methods based on a single classifier.

The key to fault diagnosis of rotating machinery is to extract fault features effectively and select the appropriate classification algorithm. As a common signal decomposition method, the effect of wavelet packet decomposition (WPD) largely depends on the applicability of the wavelet basis function (WBF). In this paper, a novel fault diagnosis approach for rotating machinery based on feature importance ranking and selection is proposed. Firstly, a two-step principle is proposed to select the most suitable WBF for the vibration signal, based on which an optimized WPD (OWPD) method is proposed to decompose the vibration signal and extract the fault information in the frequency domain. Secondly, FE is utilized to extract fault features of the decomposed subsignals of OWPD. Thirdly, the categorical boosting (CatBoost) algorithm is introduced to rank the fault features by a certain strategy, and the optimal feature set is further utilized to identify and diagnose the fault types. A hybrid dataset of bearing and rotor faults and an actual dataset of the one-stage reduction gearbox are utilized for experimental verification. Experimental results indicate that the proposed approach can achieve higher fault diagnosis accuracy using fewer features under complex working conditions.

The diagnosis of compound-fault is always a difficult point, and there is not an effective method in equipment diagnosis field, then a new method of compound-fault diagnosis was presented. The vibration signals at start-up in the gearbox are non-stationary signals, and traditional ways of diagnosis have low precision. Order tracking and wavelet packet and rough sets theory are introduced in the compound-fault diagnosis of bearing. First, the vibration signals at start-up were resampled using computer order tracking arithmetic and equal angle distributed vibration signals were obtained, and wavelet packet has been used for equal angle distributed vibration signals decomposition and reconstruction. Then, energy distribution of every frequency band can be calculated according to normalization process. A new feature vector can be obtained, then clear and concise decision rules can be obtained by rough sets theory. Finally, the result of compound-fault example proves that the proposed method has high validity and more amplitude appliance foreground.
