In this research, the aim is to investigate an adaptive digital twin algorithm for fault diagnosis and crack size identification in bearings. The main contribution of this research is to design an adaptive digital twin (ADT). The design of the ADT technique is based on two principles: normal signal modeling and estimation of signals. A combination of mathematical and data-driven techniques will be used to model the normal vibration signal. Therefore, in the first step, the normal vibration signal is modeled to increase the reliability of the modeling algorithm in the ADT. Then, to help challenge the complexity and uncertainty, the data-driven method will solve the problems of the mathematically based algorithm. Thus, first, Gaussian process regression is selected, and then, in two steps, we improve its resistance and accuracy by a Laguerre filter and fuzzy logic algorithm. After modeling the vibration signal, the second step is to design the data estimation for ADT. These signals are estimated by an adaptive observer. Therefore, a proportional-integral observer is then combined with the proposed technique for signal modeling. Then, in two stages, its robustness and reliability are strengthened using the Lyapunov-based algorithm and adaptive technique, respectively. After designing the ADT, the residual signals that are the difference between original and estimated signals are obtained. After that, the residual signals are resampled, and the root means square (RMS) signals are extracted from the residual signals. A support vector machine (SVM) is recommended for fault classification and crack size identification. The strength of the proposed technique is tested using the Case Western Reserve University Bearing Dataset (CWRUBD) under diverse torque loads, various motor speeds, and different crack sizes. In terms of fault diagnosis, the average detection accuracy in the proposed scheme is 95.75%. In terms of crack size identification for the roller, inner, and outer faults, the proposed scheme has average detection accuracies of 97.33%, 98.33%, and 98.33%, respectively.

Taking aim at the nonstationary nonlinearity of the rolling bearing vibration signal, a rolling bearing fault diagnosis method based on the entropy fusion feature of complementary ensemble empirical mode decomposition (CEEMD) is proposed in combination with information fusion theory. First, CEEMD of the vibration signal of the rolling bearing is performed. Then the signal is decomposed into the sum of several intrinsic mode functions (IMFs), and the singular entropy, energy entropy, and permutation entropy are obtained for the IMFs with fault features. Second, the feature extraction method of entropy fusion is proposed, and the three entropy data obtained are input into kernel principal component analysis (KPCA) for feature fusion and dimensionality reduction to obtain complementary features. Finally, the extracted features are imported into the particle swarm optimization (PSO) algorithm to optimize the least-squares support vector machine (LSSVM) for fault classification. Through experimental verification, the proposed method can be used for roller bearing fault diagnosis.

The research of rolling element bearings (REBs) fault diagnosis based on single sensor vibration signal analysis is very common. However, the information provided by an individual sensor is very limited, and the robustness of the system is poor. In this paper, a novel fault diagnosis method based on coaxial vibration signal feature fusion (CVSFF) is proposed to fully analyze the multisensor information of the system and build a more reliable diagnostic system. An ensemble empirical mode decomposition (EEMD) method is used to decompose the original vibration signal into a number of intrinsic mode functions (IMFs). Then the autocorrelation analysis is introduced to reduce the random noise remaining in IMFs. After that, the Rényi entropy is calculated as the feature of bearings. Finally, the features of coaxial vibration signal are fused by a multiple-kernel learning support vector machine (MKL-SVM) to classify bearing conditions. In order to verify the effectiveness of the CVSFF method in REB diagnosis, eight data sets from the Case Western Reserve University Bearing Data Center are selected. The fault classification results demonstrate that the proposed approach is a valuable tool for bearing faults detection, and the fused feature from coaxial sensors improves fault classification accuracy for REBs.

Abstract The kernel function parameter g and penalty factor c in Support Vector Machine (SVM) will have an important impact on the fault classification and performance of the support vector machine. Based on this, a fault analysis and diagnosis model using ant colony algorithm to optimize support vector machine is proposed to improve the accuracy of gearbox fault diagnosis. First, the collected original vibration signal is decomposed by EEMD to obtain the modal function component IMF, and then the energy entropy of the IMF component is calculated as the feature vector of the original vibration signal. Finally, the feature vector is input to the support vector optimized by the ant colony algorithm identify and classify in the machine, and finally get the diagnosis result. Comparing ACO-SVM with SVM, the experimental results prove that the ACO-SVM model has a higher fault diagnosis rate, stronger optimization ability, and faster convergence speed.

As a main source of power, diesel engines are widely used in large mechanical systems. Fire failure is a kind of common fault condition, which seriously affects the power and economy of the diesel engine. Previously, scholars mostly used single-channel signal to diagnose the misfire fault of the diesel engine. However, the single-channel signal has limitations in reflecting the information of fault. A novel fault diagnosis method based on MEMD and dispersion entropy is proposed in this paper. Firstly, the multichannel vibration signal of the diesel engine cylinder head is decomposed by multivariate empirical mode decomposition (MEMD), which obtains the IMF component groups with the same frequency in the same order. Then, the IMF component with a large correlation coefficient with the original signal in each group is selected to reconstruct new signal, and dispersion entropy (DE) of the reconstructed signal is calculated as a fault feature vector. Finally, the fault feature vector is input into the support vector machine (SVM) for misfire fault classification. Compared with the other three methods, the results show that the diagnosis method proposed in this paper can effectively extract the fault features and accurately identify the fault type, which is superior to the comparison method.

Fault diagnosis of rotating machinery mainly includes fault feature extraction and fault classification. Vibration signal from the operation of machinery usually could help diagnosing the operational state of equipment. Different types of fault usually have different vibrational features, which are actually the basis of fault diagnosis. This paper proposes a novel fault diagnosis model, which extracts features by combining vibration severity, dyadic wavelet energy time-spectrum, and coefficient power spectrum of the maximum wavelet energy level (VWC) at the feature extraction stage. At the stage of fault classification, we design a support vector machine (SVM) based on the modified shuffled frog-leaping algorithm (MSFLA) for the accurate classifying machinery fault method. Specifically, we use the MSFLA method to optimize SVM parameters. MSFLA can avoid getting trapped into local optimum, speeding up convergence, and improving classification accuracy. Finally, we evaluate our model on real rotating machinery platform, which has four different states, i.e., normal state, eccentric axle fault (EAF), bearing pedestal fault (BPF), and sealing ring wear fault (SRWF). As demonstrated by the results, the VWC method is efficient in extracting vibration signal features of rotating machinery. Based on the extracted features, we further compare our classification method with other three fault classification methods, i.e., backpropagation neural network (BPNN), artificial chemical reaction optimization algorithm (ACROA-SVM), and SFLA-SVM. The experiment results show that MSFLA-SVM achieves a much higher fault classification rate than BPNN, ACROA-SVM, and SFLA-SVM.

This paper is focused on fault diagnosis of bearings due to localized defects i.e. spall on the bearing components, which is essential to the design of high performance rotor bearing system. The methodology proposed in this paper for fault diagnosis of rolling element bearings, utilizes autocorrelation of raw vibration signals to reduce the dimension of vibration signals with minimal loss of significant frequency content. Dimension of vibration signal is reduced to 10% with negligible loss of information. To extract most appropriate features from auto-correlated vibration signals and for effective classification of faults, vibration signals are decomposed using complex Gaussian wavelet. Total 150 signals of healthy and defective bearings at rotor speeds 250, 500, 1000, 1500 and 2000 rpm with three loading conditions are considered. 1-D continuous wavelet coefficients of these samples are calculated at the seventh level of decomposition (27 scales for each sample). Maximum Energy to Shannon Entropy ration criterion is used to determine scale corresponding to characteristic defect frequency. Statistical features are extracted from the wavelet coefficients corresponding to selected scales. Finally, bearing faults are classified using Support Vector Machine (SVM) method. The test results show that the SVM can be used efficiently for bearing fault classification. It is also observed that classification accuracy is improved by using autocorrelation.

Aimed at the nonlinear properties of motor rotor vibration signal,a fault diagnosis method based on kernel principal component analysis (KPCA) and support vector machines (SVM) was proposed. Initial feature vectors of motor vibration signal were mapped into higher-dimensional space with kernel function. Then the PCA method was used to analyze the data in the high dimensional space to extract the nonlinear features which is used as training sample of SVM fault classifier. Then the rotor fault is identified using the trained classifier. The classification effect of KPCA-SVM is compared with PCA-SVM and SVM. The result shows that the method based on KPCA-SVM can identify motor rotor fault efficiently and fulfill fault classification accurately.

In analog circuit, the component parameters have tolerances and the fault component parameters present a wide distribution, which brings obstacle to classification diagnosis. To tackle this problem, this article proposes a soft fault diagnosis method combining the improved barnacles mating optimizer(BMO) algorithm with the support vector machine (SVM) classifier, which can achieve the minimum redundancy and maximum relevance for feature dimension reduction with fuzzy mutual information. To be concrete, first, the improved barnacles mating optimizer algorithm is used to optimize the parameters for learning and classification. We adopt six test functions that are on three data sets from the University of California, Irvine (UCI) machine learning repository to test the performance of SVM classifier with five different optimization algorithms. The results show that the SVM classifier combined with the improved barnacles mating optimizer algorithm is characterized with high accuracy in classification. Second, fuzzy mutual information, enhanced minimum redundancy, and maximum relevance principle are applied to reduce the dimension of the feature vector. Finally, a circuit experiment is carried out to verify that the proposed method can achieve fault classification effectively when the fault parameters are both fixed and distributed. The accuracy of the proposed fault diagnosis method is 92.9% when the fault parameters are distributed, which is 1.8% higher than other classifiers on average. When the fault parameters are fixed, the accuracy rate is 99.07%, which is 0.7% higher than other classifiers on average.
