Iterative Filtering

A new fault feature extraction method for rolling element bearing is put forward in this paper based on the adaptive local iterative filtering (ALIF) algorithm and the modified fuzzy entropy. Due to the bearing vibration signals’ non-stationary and nonlinear characteristics, the ALIF method, which is a new approach for the analysis of the non-stationary signals, is used to decompose the original vibration signals into a series of mode components. Fuzzy entropy (FuzzyEn) is a nonlinear dynamic parameter for measuring the signals’ complexity. However, it only emphasizes the signals’ local characteristics while neglecting its global fluctuation. Considering the global fluctuation of bearing vibration signals will change with the bearing working condition varying, we modified the FuzzyEn. The modified FuzzyEn (MFuzzyEn) of the first few modes obtained by the ALIF is utilized to form the fault feature vectors. Subsequently, the corresponding feature vectors are input into the multi-class SVM classifier to accomplish the bearing fault identification automatically. The experimental analysis demonstrates that the presented ALIF-MFuzzyEn-SVM approach can effectively recognize the different fault categories and different levels of bearing fault severity.

Multi-scale fuzzy entropy (MFE) is a recently developed non-linear dynamic parameter for measuring the complexity of vibration signals of rolling element bearing over different scales. However, the calculation of fuzzy entropy (FuzzyEn) in each scale ignores the sequence’s global characteristics while the bearing vibration signals’ global fluctuation may vary as the bearing runs under different states. Therefore, in this paper, the multi-scale global fuzzy entropy (MGFE) method is put forward for extracting the fault features from the bearing vibration signals. After the feature extraction, multiple class feature selection (MCFS) method is introduced to select the most informative features from the high-dimensional feature vector. Then, a new rolling element bearing fault diagnosis approach is proposed based on MGFE, MCFS and support vector machine (SVM). The experimental results indicate that the proposed approach can effectively fulfill the fault diagnosis of rolling element bearing and has good classification performance.

Aiming at the non-linear characteristics of bearing vibration signals as well as the complexity of condition-indicating information distribution in the signals, a new rolling element bearing fault diagnosis method based on hierarchical fuzzy entropy and support vector machine is proposed in this paper. By incorporating the advantages of both the concept of fuzzy sets and the hierarchical decomposition of hierarchical entropy, hierarchical fuzzy entropy is developed to extract the fault features from the bearing vibration signals, which can provide more useful information reflecting bearing working conditions than hierarchical entropy. After feature extraction with hierarchical fuzzy entropy, a multi-class support vector machine is trained and then employed to fulfill an automated bearing fault diagnosis. The experimental results demonstrate that the proposed approach can identify different bearing fault types as well as severities precisely.

A rolling element bearing fault recognition approach is proposed in this paper. This method combines the basic Higher-order spectrum (HOS) theory and fuzzy clustering method in data mining area. In the first step, all the bispectrum estimation results of the training samples and test samples are turned into binary feature images. Secondly, the binary feature images of the training samples are used to construct object templates including kernel images and domain images. Every fault category has one object templates. At last, by calculating the distances between test samples' binary feature images and the different object templates, the object classification and pattern recognition can be effectively accomplished. Bearing is the most important and much easier to be damaged component in rotating machinery. Furthermore, there exist large amounts of noise jamming and nonlinear coupling components in bearing vibration signals. The Higher Order Cumulants (HOC), which can quantitatively describe the nonlinear characteristic signals with close relationship between the mechanical faults, is introduced in this paper to de-noise the raw bearing vibration signals and obtain the bispectrum estimation pictures. In the experimental part, the rolling bearing fault diagnosis experiment results proved that the classification was completely correct.

Cyclic Spectrum

Gearbox and rolling element bearing vibration signals feature modulation, thus being cyclostationary. Therefore, the cyclic correlation and cyclic spectrum are suited to analyze their modulation characteristics and thereby extract gearbox and bearing fault symptoms. In order to thoroughly understand the cyclostationarity of gearbox and bearing vibrations, the explicit expressions of cyclic correlation and cyclic spectrum for amplitude modulation and frequency modulation (AM-FM) signals are derived, and their properties are summarized. The theoretical derivations are illustrated and validated by gearbox and bearing experimental signal analyses. The modulation characteristics caused by gearbox and bearing faults are extracted. In faulty gearbox and bearing cases, more peaks appear in cyclic correlation slice of 0 lag and cyclic spectrum, than in healthy cases. The gear and bearing faults are detected by checking the presence or monitoring the magnitude change of peaks in cyclic correlation and cyclic spectrum and are located according to the peak cyclic frequency locations or sideband frequency spacing.

Fault Feature Extraction

The fault diagnosis of rolling element bearing is of great significance to avoid serious accidents and huge economic losses. However, the characteristics of the nonlinear, non-stationary vibration signals make the fault feature extraction of signal become a challenging work. This paper proposes an improved variational mode decomposition (IVMD) algorithm for the fault feature extraction of rolling bearing, which has the advantages of extracting the optimal fault feature from the decomposed mode and overcoming the noise interference. The Shuffled Frog Leap Algorithm (SFLA) is employed in the optimal adaptive selection of mode number K and bandwidth control parameter α. A multi-objective evaluation function, which is based on the envelope entropy, kurtosis and correlation coefficients, is constructed to select the optimal mode component. The efficiency coefficient method (ECM) is utilized to transform the multi-objective optimization problem into a single-objective optimization problem. The envelope spectrum technique is used to analyze the signals reconstructed by the optimal mode components. The proposed IVMD method is evaluated by simulation and practical bearing vibration signals under different conditions. The results show that the proposed method can improve the decomposition accuracy of the signal and the adaptability of the influence parameters and realize the effective extraction of the bearing vibration signal.
