This study discusses convolutional neural networks (CNNs) for vibration signals analysis, including applications in machining surface roughness estimation, bearing faults diagnosis, and tool wear detection. The one-dimensional CNNs (1DCNN) and two-dimensional CNNs (2DCNN) are applied for regression and classification applications using different types of inputs, e.g., raw signals, and time-frequency spectra images by short time Fourier transform. In the application of regression and the estimation of machining surface roughness, the 1DCNN is utilized and the corresponding CNN structure (hyper parameters) optimization is proposed by using uniform experimental design (UED), neural network, multiple regression, and particle swarm optimization. It demonstrates the effectiveness of the proposed approach to obtain a structure with better performance. In applications of classification, bearing faults and tool wear classification are carried out by vibration signals analysis and CNN. Finally, the experimental results are shown to demonstrate the effectiveness and performance of our approach.

Induction motors are an essential component of many applications in industry due to their robust and simple construction. Since bearing faults are the most occurred fault type in the induction motors, it is important to implement the fault detection procedure at an early stage to prevent a sudden interruption of industrial systems. In recent years, deep learning-based techniques have become important tools for converting raw data into images and for producing high-quality images. However, deep learning-based techniques are still difficult to apply in real-time because the techniques require large training data, which slows down the learning process. In the present study, we propose a novel bearing faults diagnosis method at different operating speeds and load conditions. We obtain the time-frequency (TF) representation by applying continuous wavelet analysis to the raw vibration signals. The results of TF representation is recorded as an image. We apply co-occurrence Histograms of Oriented Gradients (coHOG) to the image to obtain features and classify the features with extreme learning machine with a sparse classifier (ELMSRC) to diagnose faults. We obtained better results in terms of time and performance compared with the proposed method of other classification and deep learning techniques.

Bearing faults are the most frequent faults of induction motors. The current spectrum analysis is an easy and popular method for the monitoring and detection of bearing faults. After a presentation of the existing fault models, this paper illustrates an analytical approach to evaluate the effects of the slot harmonics on the stator current in an induction motor with bearing fault. Simple and clear theoretical analysis results in some new current characteristic frequencies. Experimental tests with artificial bearing outer raceway fault are carried out by measuring stator current signals. The experimental results by spectral analysis of the stator current agree well with the theoretical inference.
