Vibration analysis is one of the main effective ways for rolling bearing fault diagnosis, and achallenge is how to accurately separate the inner and outer race fault features from noisy compoundfaults signals. Therefore, a novel compound fault separation algorithm based on parallel dual-Qfactorsand improved maximum correlation kurtosis deconvolution (IMCKD) is proposed. First, thecompound fault signal is sparse-decomposed by the parallel dual-Q-factor, and the low-resonancecomponents of the signal (compound fault impact component and small amount of noise) are obtained,but it can only highlight the impact of compound faults, and failed to separate the inner and outerrace compound fault signal. Then, the MCKD is improved (IMCKD) by optimizing the selection ofparameters (the shift order M and the filter length L) based on the iterative calculation method withthe Teager envelope spectral kurtosis (TEK) index. Finally, after the composite fault signal is filteredand de-noised by the proposed method, the inner and outer race fault signals are obtained respectively.The fault characteristic frequency is consistent with the theoretical calculation value. The results showthat the proposed method can efficiently separate the mixed fault information and avoid the mutualinterference between the components of the compound fault.

This study presents a fault diagnosis method for rolling bearing based on multi-scale deep subdomain adaptation network (MSDSAN). The proposed MSDSAN, as improvement of deep subdomain adaptation network (DSAN), is an unsupervised transfer learning method. MSDSAN reduces the subdomain distribution discrepancy between domains rather than marginal distribution discrepancy, and so better domain invariant fault features are derived to avoid misalignment between domains. Aiming at avoiding fault information loss by fixed receptive fields feature extraction, selective kernel convolution module is introduced into feature extraction of MSDSAN, by which multiple receptive fields are applied to ensure an optimal receptive field for each working condition. Moreover, contribution rates are adaptively assigned to all receptive fields, and the disturbing information extracted by inappropriate receptive fields is further eliminated. As a result, more comprehensive and effective fault information is derived for bearing fault diagnosis. Fault diagnosis experiment of bearings is performed to verify the superiority of the proposed method, and the experimental results demonstrate that MSDSAN achieves better transfer effects and higher accuracy than SOTA methods under varying working conditions.

It is challenging to extract weak impulse features from vibration signals corrupted by strong noise in mechanical fault diagnosis. Due to its simple calculation, fast convergence and easy implementation, K-singular value decomposition (K-SVD) has been widely used in rolling bearing fault diagnosis. However, it fails to consider the influence of noise and harmonics on atoms learning from impulse characteristics, which results in many irrelevant atoms, and then increases the difficulty of extracting the impulse features in bearing fault signals. Therefore, a clustering K-SVD-based sparse representation method is proposed in this paper and it is combined with the particle swarm optimisation (PSO)-based time-varying filter empirical mode decomposition (TVF-EMD) for rolling bearing fault diagnosis. The PSO-based TVF-EMD is developed to automatically decompose the original signal to eliminate the impact of noise and harmonics on the impulses in the signal. Then, the clustering K-SVD method is applied to perform dictionary learning on the sensitive component containing impulses to obtain a redundant dictionary of atoms with obvious impulse patterns. Finally, the orthogonal matching pursuit (OMP) algorithm is introduced to extract the fault features from rolling bearing vibration signals. The experimental results show that the proposed method can improve the robustness of the dictionary atoms to noise and achieve the extraction of rolling bearing fault features.

Abstract Aiming at the problem that the existing compound defects model of rolling bearings under radial load is difficult to reflect the actual contact between rolling elements and defects. A new model is proposed to accurately reflect the simultaneous or sequential contact between inner and outer race defects and rolling elements. Considering the coupled excitation between shaft and bearing and pedestal, time-varying displacement excitation, and radial clearance, a four degree-of-freedom vibration model of rolling bearing with compound faults on both inner and outer races is built. The vibration equations are calculated by the method of numerical way, and the model is verified by experiment. The vibration response characteristics of the Defect-Ball-Defect model are studied, which renders a theoretical criterion for bearing fault diagnosis.

This paper proposes a new method to realize the quantitative trend diagnosis of bearings based on Protrugram and Lempel–Ziv. Firstly, the fault features of original fault signals of bearing inner and outer race with different severity are extracted using Protrugram algorithm, and the optimal analysis frequency band is selected which reflects the fault characteristic. Then, the Lempel–Ziv complexity of the frequency band is calculated. Finally, the relationship between Lempel–Ziv complexity and fault size is obtained. Analysis results show that the severity of fault is proportional to the Lempel–Ziv complexity index value under different fault types. The Lempel–Ziv complexity showed different trend rules, respectively, in the inner and outer race, which realized the quantitative trend diagnosis of bearing faults.

Rolling bearing plays an important role in the overall operation of the mechanical system; therefore, it is necessary to monitor and diagnose the bearings. Kurtosis is an important index to measure impulses. Fast Kurtogram method can be applied to the fault diagnosis of rolling bearings by extracting maximum kurtosis component. However, the final result may disperse the effective fault information to different frequency bands or find wrong frequency band, resulting in inaccurate frequency band selection or misdiagnosis. In order to find the maximum component of kurtosis accurately, an algorithm of frequency band multidivisional and overlapped based on EWT (MDO-EWT) is proposed in this paper. This algorithm changes the traditional Fast Kurtogram frequency bands division method and filtering method. It builds the EWT boundaries based on the maximum kurtosis component in each iteration and finally obtains the maximum kurtosis component. Through the simulation signal and the rolling bearing inner and outer ring fault signals verification, it is proved that the proposed method has a good performance on accuracy and effectiveness.

One rolling bearing fault diagnosis method based on minimum entropy deconvolution (MED) and morphological filtering is proposed. Firstly, the strong background noise of rolling bearings is decreased by the MED method, then the morphological filtering which have different length of structure elements is designed and applied to the de-noised signal. Subsequently, bearing’s fault characteristic frequency is extracted by the amplitude spectrum analysis to the best morphological filtering component which have the maximum kurtosis. This method is used to analyze both a simulated bearing signal and an experimental inner ring fault signal, and the good result validated the effectiveness of this method.

Aiming at the problem that the weak faults of rolling bearing are difficult to recognize accurately, an approach on the basis of swarm decomposition (SWD), morphology envelope dispersion entropy (MEDE), and random forest (RF) is proposed to realize effective detection and intelligent recognition of weak faults in rolling bearings. The proposed approach is based on the idea of signal denoising, feature extraction and pattern classification. Firstly, the raw signal is divided into a group of oscillatory components through SWD algorithm. The first component has the richest fault information and perceived as the principal oscillatory component (POC). Secondly, the MEDE value of the POC is calculated and used to describe the characteristics of signal. Ultimately, the obtained MEDE values of various states are trained and recognized by being input as the feature vectors into the RF classifier to achieve the automatic identification of rolling bearing fault under different operation states. The dataset of Case Western Reserve University is conducted, the proposed approach achieves recognition accuracy rate of 100%. In summary, the proposed approach is efficient and robust, which can be used as a supplement to the rolling bearing fault diagnosis methods.

The condition monitoring of rotating machinery is always a focus of intelligent fault diagnosis. In view of the traditional methods’ excessive dependence on prior knowledge to manually extract features, their limited capacity to learn complex nonlinear relations in fault signals and the mixing of the collected signals with environmental noise in the course of the work of rotating machines, this article proposes a novel approach for detecting the bearing fault, which is based on deep learning. To effectively detect, locate, and identify faults in rolling bearings, a stacked noise reduction autoencoder is utilized for abstracting characteristic from the original vibration of signals, and then, the characteristic is provided as input for backpropagation (BP) network classifier. The results output by this classifier represent different fault categories. Experimental results obtained on rolling bearing datasets show that this method can be used to effectively diagnose bearing faults based on original time-domain signals.

Abstract Blind deconvolution (BD) is an effective algorithm for enhancing the impulsive signature of rolling bearings. As a convex optimization problem, the existing BDs have poor optimization performance and cannot effectively enhance the impulsive signature excited by weak faults. Moreover, the existing BDs require manual derivation of the calculation process, which brings great inconvenience to the researcher's personalized design of the maximization criterion. A new BD algorithm based on backward automatic differentiation (BAD) is proposed, which is named BADBD. The calculation process does not require manual derivation so a general solution of BDs based on different maximization criteria is realized. BADBD constructs multiple cascaded filters to filter the raw vibration signal, which makes up for the deficiency of single filter performance. The filter coefficients are determined by Adam algorithm, which improves the optimization performance of the proposed BADBD. BADBD is compared with classic BDs by synthesized and real vibration signals. The results reveal superior capability of BADBD to enhance the impulsive signature and the fault diagnosis performance is significantly better than the classic BDs.

In the early fault diagnosis of rolling bearing, the vibration signal is mixed with a lot of noise, resulting in the difficulties in analysis of early weak fault signal. This article introduces resonance-based signal sparse decomposition (RSSD) into rolling bearing fault diagnosis, and studies the fault information contained in high resonance component and low resonance component. This article compares the effect of the two resonance components to extract rolling bearing fault information in four aspects: the amount of fault information, frequency resolution of subbands, sensitivity to noise and immunity to autocorrelation processing. We find that the high resonance component has greater advantage in extraction of rolling bearing fault information, and it is able to indicate rolling bearing failure accurately.
