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.

Accurate and reliable fault diagnosis is one of the key and difficult issues in mechanical condition monitoring. In recent years, Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) has been widely used in mechanical condition monitoring, which is also a great breakthrough in the field of bearing fault diagnosis. However, CNN can only extract local features of signals. The model accuracy and generalization of the original vibration signals are very low in the process of vibration signal processing only by CNN. Based on the above problems, this paper improves the traditional convolution layer of CNN, and builds the learning module (local feature learning block, LFLB) of the local characteristics. At the same time, the Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) is introduced into the network, which is used to extract the global features. This paper proposes the new neural network—improved CNN-LSTM network. The extracted deep feature is used for fault classification. The improved CNN-LSTM network is applied to the processing of the vibration signal of the faulty bearing collected by the bearing failure laboratory of Inner Mongolia University of science and technology. The results show that the accuracy of the improved CNN-LSTM network on the same batch test set is 98.75%, which is about 24% higher than that of the traditional CNN. The proposed network is applied to the bearing data collection of Western Reserve University under the condition that the network parameters remain unchanged. The experiment shows that the improved CNN-LSTM network has better generalization than the traditional CNN.

Fault characteristic extraction is attracting a great deal of attention from researchers for the fault diagnosis of rotating machinery. Generally, when a gearbox is damaged, accurate identification of the side-band features can be used to detect the condition of the machinery equipment to reduce financial losses. However, the side-band feature of damaged gears that are constantly disturbed by strong jamming is embedded in the background noise. In this paper, a hybrid signal-processing method is proposed based on a spectral subtraction (SS) denoising algorithm combined with an empirical wavelet transform (EWT) to extract the side-band feature of gear faults. Firstly, SS is used to estimate the real-time noise information, which is used to enhance the fault signal of the helical gearbox from a vibration signal with strong noise disturbance. The empirical wavelet transform can extract amplitude-modulated/frequency-modulated (AM-FM) components of a signal using different filter bands that are designed in accordance with the signal properties. The fault signal is obtained by building a flexible gear for a helical gearbox with ADAMS software. The experiment shows the feasibility and availability of the multi-body dynamics model. The spectral subtraction-based adaptive empirical wavelet transform (SS-AEWT) method was applied to estimate the gear side-band feature for different tooth breakages and the strong background noise. The verification results show that the proposed method gives a clearer indication of gear fault characteristics with different tooth breakages and the different signal-noise ratio (SNR) than the conventional EMD and LMD methods. Finally, the fault characteristic frequency of a damaged gear suggests that the proposed SS-AEWT method can accurately and reliably diagnose faults of a gearbox.

Fault diagnosis of train bearing is an important method to ensure the security of railway. The key to the fault diagnosis is the method of vibration signal demodulation. The local mean decomposition (LMD) is a self-adapted signal processing method which has a good performance in nonlinear nonstationary signal demodulation. The improved LMD method based on kurtosis criterion can prevent errors in the process of calculating the product functions. With the verification of simulation and wheel set experiment, the improvement method has been certified usefully in practical application.

Main Fault

In order to discover the fault with roller bearing in time, a new fault diagnosis method based on Empirical mode decomposition (EMD) and BP neural network is put forward in the paper. First, we get the fault signal through experiments. Then we use EMD to decompose the vibration signal into a series of single signals. We can extract main fault information from the single signals. The kurtosis coefficient of the single signals forms a feature vector which is used as the input data of the BP neural network. The trained BP neural network can be used for fault identification. Through analyzing, BP neural network can distinguish the fault into normal state, inner race fault, outer race fault. The results show that this method can gain very stable classification performance and good computational efficiency.
