Rotating machinery usually suffers from a type of fault, where the fault feature extracted in the frequency domain is significant, while the fault feature extracted in the time domain is insignificant. For this type of fault, a deep learning-based fault diagnosis method developed in the frequency domain can reach high accuracy performance without real-time performance, whereas a deep learning-based fault diagnosis method developed in the time domain obtains real-time diagnosis with lower diagnosis accuracy. In this paper, a multimodal feature fusion-based deep learning method for accurate and real-time online diagnosis of rotating machinery is proposed. The proposed method can directly extract the potential frequency of abnormal features involved in the time domain data. Firstly, multimodal features corresponding to the original data, the slope data, and the curvature data are firstly extracted by three separate deep neural networks. Then, a multimodal feature fusion is developed to obtain a new fused feature that can characterize the potential frequency feature involved in the time domain data. Lastly, the fused new feature is used as the input of the Softmax classifier to achieve a real-time online diagnosis result from the frequency-type fault data. A simulation experiment and a case study of the bearing fault diagnosis confirm the high efficiency of the method proposed in this paper.

This paper simulated the unbalance vibration conditions by the vibration test platform, measuring some common characteristic parameters of unbalance vibration fault diagnosis. This paper chose the time-domain analysis method, processing the characteristic parameters of the test, so as to achieve the purpose of vibration diagnosis. Through a large number of experimental data, this paper verified the feasibility and the effectiveness of the proposed approach to the unbalance fault diagnosis. The method proposed in this paper not only can be applied to unbalance fault diagnosis, but also can be promoted to apply to the fault diagnosis of other rotating machinery.

Generally, the health conditions of rotating machinery are complicated and changeable. Meanwhile, its fault labeled information is mostly unknown. Therefore, it is man-sized to automatically capture the useful fault labeled information from the monitoring raw vibration signals. That is to say, the intelligent unsupervised learning approach has a significant influence on fault diagnosis of rotating machinery. In this study, a span-new unsupervised deep learning network can be constructed based on the proposed feature extractor (L12 sparse filtering (L12SF)) and the designed clustering extractor (Weighted Euclidean Affinity Propagation) for resolving the issue that the acquisition of fault sample labeled information is burdensome, yet costly. Naturally, the novel intelligent fault diagnosis method of rotating machinery based on unsupervised deep learning network is first presented in this study. Thereinto, the proposed unsupervised deep learning network consists of two layers of unsupervised feature extractor (L12SF) and one layer of unsupervised clustering (Weighted Euclidean Affinity Propagation). L12SF can improve the regularization performance of sparse filtering, and Weighted Euclidean Affinity Propagation can get rid of the traditional Euclidean distance in affinity propagation that cannot highlight the contribution of different features in fault clustering. To make a long story short, the frequency spectrum signals are first entered into the constructed unsupervised deep learning network for fault feature representation; afterward, the unsupervised feature learning and unsupervised fault classification of rotating machinery can be implemented. The superiority of the proposed algorithms and method is validated by two cases of rolling bearing fault dataset. Ultimately, the proposed unsupervised fault diagnosis method can provide a theoretical basis for the development of intelligent unsupervised fault diagnosis technology for rotating machinery.

A convolutional neural network (CNN) has been used to successfully realize end-to-end bearing fault diagnosis due to its powerful feature extraction ability. However, the CNN is prone to focus on local information, ignoring the relationship between the whole and the part of the signal due to its unique structure. In addition, it extracts some fault features with poor robustness under noisy environment. A novel diagnosis model based on feature fusion and feature selection, GL-mRMR-SVM, is proposed to address this problem in this paper. First, the model combines the global features in the time-domain and frequency-domain of the raw data with the local features extracted by CNN to make full use of the signal information and overcome the weakness of traditional CNNs neglecting the overall signal. Then, the max-relevance min-redundancy (mRMR) algorithm is used to automatically extract the discriminative features from the fused features without any prior knowledge. Finally, the extracted discriminative features are input into the SVM for training and output the fault recognition results. The proposed GL-mRMR-SVM model was evaluated through experiments on bearing data of Case Western Reserve University (CWRU) and CUT-2 platform. The experimental results show that the proposed method is more effective than other intelligent diagnosis methods.

Gearbox is an important structure of rotating machinery, and the accurate fault diagnosis of gearboxes is of great significance for ensuring efficient and safe operation of rotating machinery. Aiming at the problem that there is little common compound fault data of gearboxes, and there is a lack of an effective diagnosis method, a gearbox fault simulation experiment platform is set up, and a diagnosis method for the compound fault of gearboxes based on multi-feature and BP-AdaBoost is proposed. Firstly, the vibration signals of six typical states of gearbox are obtained, and the original signals are decomposed by empirical mode decomposition and reconstruct the new signal to achieve the purpose of noise reduction. Then, perform the time domain analysis and wavelet packet analysis on the reconstructed signal, extract three time domain feature parameters with higher sensitivity, and combine them with eight frequency band energy feature parameters obtained by wavelet packet decomposition to form the gearbox state feature vector. Finally, AdaBoost algorithm and BP neural network are used to build the BP-AdaBoost strong classifier model, and feature vectors are input into the model for training and verification. The results show that the proposed method can effectively identify the gearbox failure modes, and has higher accuracy than the traditional fault diagnosis methods, and has certain reference significance and engineering application value.

The multi-disc wet clutch is widely used in transmission systems as it transfers the torque and power between the gearbox and the driving engine. During service, the buckling of the friction components in the wet clutch is inevitable, which can shorten the lifetime of the wet clutch and decrease the vehicle performance. Therefore, fault diagnosis and online monitoring are required to identify the buckling state of the friction components. However, unlike in other rotating machinery, the time-domain features of the vibration signal lack efficiency in fault diagnosis for the wet clutch. This paper aims to present a new fault diagnosis method based on multi-speed Hilbert spectrum entropy to classify the buckling state of the wet clutch. Firstly, the wet clutch is classified depending on the buckling degree of the disks, and then a bench test is conducted to obtain vibration signals of each class at varying speeds. By comparing the accuracy of different classifiers with and without entropy, Hilbert spectrum entropy shows higher efficiency than time-domain features for the wet clutch diagnosis. Thus, the classification results based on multi-speed entropy achieve even better accuracy.
