The tail of the particle swarm optimisation (PSO) position distribution at stagnation is shown to be describable by a power law. This tail fattening is attributed to particle bursting on all length scales. The origin of the power law is concluded to lie in multiplicative randomness, previously encountered in the study of first-order stochastic difference equations, and generalised here to second-order equations. It is argued that recombinant PSO, a competitive PSO variant without multiplicative randomness, does not experience tail fattening at stagnation.

Detection of faults in a gearbox is a first and foremost step before diagnostic and prognostic operations are performed. This paper proposes a novel gearbox fault detection and feature extraction technique. The proposed method adaptively filters the vibration signals emanating from a gearbox. A bandpass filter is designed and optimized through particle swarm optimization (PSO) to maximize kurtosis as an objective function. Gearbox health-related features are extracted from the filtered signals using second-order transient analysis. The method is validated on experimental data collected from a running gearbox in healthy and faulty conditions. The proposed method has successfully identified the faulty conditions inside the gearbox.
