Local means decomposition is an adaptive and nonparametric time–frequency decomposition method for nonstationary and nonlinear signals. However, in practice, local means decomposition is susceptible to mode mixing phenomena and produces different scale oscillations in one mode or similar scale oscillations in different modes, rendering the decomposition results difficult to interpret in terms of physical meansing. The noise-assisted ensemble local means decomposition method not only effectively resolved mode mixing but also generated a new problem, which tolerates residual noise in signal reconstruction. Targeting these shortcomings, this article proposes complementary ensemble local means decomposition, a novel noise-assisted time–frequency analysis method. First, an ensemble of white noise is added to the original signal via complementary positive and negative pairs. Second, local means decomposition is applied to decompose the noisy signals into a series of product functions, and the final results are obtained by averaging. The simulation results confirm that complementary ensemble local means decomposition offers an innovative improvement over ensemble local means decomposition in terms of eliminating residual noise. The superiority of the proposed method was further validated on fault signals obtained from faulty railway bearings (rolling element and outer race fault signals).

AbstractThe present paper discusses the parallelization of the robust multigrid technique (RMT) and the possible way of applying this to unstructured grids. As opposed to the classical multigrid methods, the RMT is a trivial method of parallelization on coarse grids independent of the smoothing iterations. Estimates of the minimum speed-up and parallelism efficiency are given. An almost perfect load balance is demonstrated in a 3D illustrative test. To overcome the geometric nature of the technique, the RMT is used as a preconditioner in solving PDEs on unstructured grids. The procedure of auxiliary structured grids generation is considered in details.
