The effective fault diagnosis in the prognostic and health management of reciprocating compressors has been a research hotspot for a long time. The vibration signal of reciprocating compressors is nonlinear and non-stationary. However, the traditional methods applied to processing such signals have three issues, including separating the useful frequency bands from overlapped signals, extracting fault features with strong subjectivity, and processing the massive data with limited learning abilities. To address the above issues, this paper, which is based on the idea of deep learning, proposed an intelligent fault diagnosis method combining Local Mean Decomposition (LMD) and the Stack Denoising Autoencoder (SDAE). The vibration signal is firstly decomposed by LMD and reconstructed based on the cross-correlation criterion. The virtual noise channel is constructed to reduce the noise of the vibration signal. Then, the de-noised signal is input into the trained SDAE model to learn the fault features adaptively. Finally, the conditions of the reciprocating compressor valve are classified by the proposed method. The results show that classification accuracy is 92.72% under the condition of a low signal-noise ratio, which is 5 percentage points higher than that of the traditional methods. This shows the effectiveness and robustness of the proposed method.

Purpose The purpose of this study is to analyze the intelligent fault diagnosis method of rolling bearing. Design/methodology/approach The vibration signal data of rolling bearing has long time series and strong noise interference, which brings great difficulties for the accurate diagnosis of bearing faults. To solve those problems, an intelligent fault diagnosis model based on stacked denoising autoencoder (SDAE) and convolutional neural network (CNN) is proposed in this paper. The SDAE is used to process the time series data with multiple dimensions and noise interference. Then the dimension-reduced samples can be put into CNN model, and the fault classification results can be obtained by convolution and pooling operations of hidden layers in CNN. Findings The effectiveness of the proposed method is validated through experimental verification and comparative experimental analysis. The results demonstrate that the proposed model can achieve an average classification accuracy of 96.5% under three noise levels, which is 3-13% higher than the traditional models and single deep-learning models. Originality/value The combined SDAE–CNN model proposed in this paper can denoise and reduce dimensions of raw vibration signal data, and extract the in-depth features in image samples of rolling bearing. Consequently, the proposed model has more accurate fault diagnosis results for the rolling bearing vibration signal data with long time series and noise interference.

Reduction Effect

Minimum entropy deconvolution (MED) is not effective in extracting fault features in strong noise environments, which can easily lead to misdiagnosis. Moreover, the noise reduction effect of MED is affected by the size of the filter. In the face of different vibration signals, the size of the filter is not adaptive. In order to improve the efficiency of MED fault feature extraction, this paper proposes a firefly optimization algorithm (FA) to improve the MED fault diagnosis method. Firstly, the original vibration signal is stratified by white noise-assisted singular spectral decomposition (SSD), and the stratified signal components are divided into residual signal components and noisy signal components by a detrended fluctuation analysis (DFA) algorithm. Then, the noisy components are preprocessed by an autoregressive (AR) model. Secondly, the envelope spectral entropy is proposed as the fitness function of the FA algorithm, and the filter size of MED is optimized by the FA algorithm. Finally, the preprocessed signal is denoised and the pulse enhanced with the proposed adaptive MED. The new method is validated by simulation experiments and practical engineering cases. The application results show that this method improves the shortcomings of MED and can extract fault features more effectively than the traditional MED method.

A novel systematic framework, infrared thermography- (IRT-) based method, for rotating machinery fault diagnosis under nonstationary running conditions is presented in this paper. In this framework, IRT technique is first applied to obtain the thermograph. Then, the fault features are extracted using bag-of-visual-word (BoVW) from the IRT images. In the end, support vector machine (SVM) is utilized to automatically identify the fault patterns of rotating machinery. The effectiveness of proposed method is evaluated using lab experimental signal of rotating machinery. The diagnosis results show that the IRT-based method has certain advantages in classification rotating machinery faults under nonstationary running conditions compared with the traditional vibration-based method.

Diagnosis Method

Due to the mechanical equipment working under variable speed and load for a long time, the distribution of samples is different (domain shift). The general intelligent fault diagnosis method has a good diagnostic effect only on samples with the same sample distribution, but cannot correctly predict the faults of samples with domain shift in a real situation. To settle this problem, a new intelligent fault diagnosis method, domain adaptation network with double adversarial mechanism (DAN-DAM), is proposed. The DAN-DAM model is mainly composed of a feature extractor, two label classifiers and a domain discriminator. The feature extractor and the two label classifiers form the first adversarial mechanism to achieve class-level alignment. Moreover, the discrepancy between the two classifiers is measured by Wasserstein distance. Meanwhile, the feature extractor and the domain discriminator form the second adversarial mechanism to realize domain-level alignment. In addition, maximum mean discrepancy (MMD) is used to reduce the distance between the extracted features of two domains. The DAN-DAM model is verified by multiple transfer experiments on some datasets. According to the transfer experiment results, the DAN-DAM model has a good diagnosis effect for the domain shift samples. Moreover, the diagnostic accuracy is generally higher than other mainstream diagnostic methods.

Abstract Mechanical intelligent fault diagnosis is an important method to accurately identify the health status of mechanical equipment. Traditional fault diagnosis methods perform poorly in the diagnosis of rolling bearings under complex conditions. In this paper, a feature transfer learning model based on improved DenseNet and joint distribution adaptation (FT-IDJ) is proposed. With this model, we apply it to implement rolling bearing fault diagnosis. A lightweight DenseNet model is firstly proposed to extract the transferable features of the raw vibration signal. Furthermore, the parameters in the DenseNet are constrained by the domain adaptive regularization term and pseudo label learning. The marginal distribution discrepancy and the conditional distribution discrepancy of the learned transferable features are reduced by this way. The proposed method is validated by the diagnosis experiments with CWRU and Jiangnan University rolling bearing datasets. The experimental results showed that the proposed FT-IDJ has higher classification accuracy than DAN and other eight methods, which demonstrated its effectively learning transferable features from auxiliary data.

When rolling bearings have a local fault, the real bearing vibration signal related to the local fault is characterized by the properties of nonlinear and nonstationary. To extract the useful fault features from the collected nonlinear and nonstationary bearing vibration signals and improve diagnostic accuracy, this paper proposes a new bearing fault diagnosis method based on parameter adaptive variational mode extraction (PAVME) and multiscale envelope dispersion entropy (MEDE). Firstly, a new method hailed as parameter adaptive variational mode extraction (PAVME) is presented to process the collected original bearing vibration signal and obtain the frequency components related to bearing faults, where its two important parameters (i.e., the penalty factor and mode center-frequency) are automatically determined by whale optimization algorithm. Subsequently, based on the processed bearing vibration signal, an effective complexity evaluation approach named multiscale envelope dispersion entropy (MEDE) is calculated for conducting bearing fault feature extraction. Finally, the extracted fault features are fed into the k-nearest neighbor (KNN) to automatically identify different health conditions of rolling bearing. Case studies and contrastive analysis are performed to validate the effectiveness and superiority of the proposed method. Experimental results show that the proposed method can not only effectively extract bearing fault features, but also obtain a high identification accuracy for bearing fault patterns under single or variable speed.

The accurate fault diagnosis of gearboxes is of great significance for ensuring safe and efficient operation of rotating machinery. This paper develops a novel fault diagnosis method based on hierarchical instantaneous energy density dispersion entropy (HIEDDE) and dynamic time warping (DTW). Specifically, the instantaneous energy density (IED) analysis based on singular spectrum decomposition (SSD) and Hilbert transform (HT) is first applied to the vibration signal of gearbox to acquire the IED signal, which is designed to reinforce the fault feature of the signal. Then, the hierarchical dispersion entropy (HDE) algorithm developed in this paper is used to quantify the complexity of the IED signal to obtain the HIEDDE as fault features. Finally, the DTW algorithm is employed to recognize the fault types automatically. The validity of the two parts that make up the HIEDDE algorithm, i.e., the IED analysis for fault features enhancement and the HDE algorithm for quantifying the information of signals, is numerically verified. The proposed method recognizes the fault patterns of the experimental data of gearbox accurately and exhibits advantages over the existing methods such as multi-scale dispersion entropy (MDE) and refined composite MDE (RCMDE).

As the most important transmission system of vehicles, the gearbox has a high fault rate, so it is meaningful to evaluate and diagnose its health condition and faults accurately. Autocorrelation -envelope analysis is a fault diagnosis method that can suppress the noise and reserve the periodic components of vibration signals. A conclusion has been deduced: amplitude modulated, frequency modulated, or amplitude& frequency modulated signals can be transformed into amplitude modulated signals with the same modulation frequency through autocorrelation processing. Therefore, the aucorrelation-envelope technique is suitable for extracting the fault features of gearbox from its vibration signal with the coexistence of amplitude modulation and frequency modulation. The simulation results verify the validity of the conclusion and the experiment of vehicle gearbox diagnosis indicates the effectiveness of this method.

Safety Operation

Serious vibration or wear with large friction usually appear when faults occur, which leads to more serious faults such as the destruction of the oil film, bringing great damages to both the society and economic sector. Therefore, the accurate diagnosis of a fault in the early stage is important for the safety operation of machinery. To effectively extract the fault features for diagnosis, EMD-based methods are widely used. However, these methods spend lots of efforts diagnosing faults and require plenty of professional knowledge of diagnosis. Although many intelligent classifiers can be used to automatically diagnose faults such as wear, a broken tooth and imbalance, the combing EMD-based method, the scarcity of samplings with labels hinder the application of these methods to engineering. It is because the model of the intelligent classifier must be constructed based on sufficient samplings with a label. To solve this problem, we propose a novel fault diagnosis method, which is performed based on the EEMD and statistical distance analysis. In this method, the EEMD is used to decompose one original signal into several IMFs and then the probability density distribution of each IMF is calculated. To diagnose the fault of the machinery, the Euclidean distance between the signal acquired under an unknown fault with the other referenced signals acquired previously under various fault types is calculated. At last, the fault of the signal is the same with the referenced signal when the distance is the smallest. To verify the effectiveness of our proposed method, a dataset of bearings with different faults, and a dataset of 2009 Prognostics and Health Management (PHM) data challenge, including gear, bearing and shaft faults are used. The result shows that the proposed method can not only automatically diagnose faults effectively, but also fewer samplings with a label are used compared with the intelligent methods.
