Rotating Machinery Remaining Useful Life Prediction Scheme Using Deep-Learning-Based Health Indicator and a New RVM

Abstract: Remaining useful life (RUL) prediction plays a significant role in developing the condition-based maintenance and improving the reliability and safety of machines. This paper proposes a remaining useful life prediction scheme combining deep-learning-based health indicator and a new relevance vector machine. First, both one-dimensional time-series information and two-dimensional time-frequency maps are input into a hybrid deep-learning structure network consisting of convolutional neural network (CNN) and long short-term memory network (LSTM) to construct health indicator (HI). Then, the prediction results and confidence interval are calculated by a new RVM enhanced by a polynomial regression model. The proposed method is verified by the public PRONOSTIA bearing datasets. Experimental results demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method in improving the prediction accuracy and analyzing the prediction uncertainty.

Nonlinear Model for Condition Monitoring and Fault Detection Based on Nonlocal Kernel Orthogonal Preserving Embedding

Abstract: The dimension reduction methods have been proved powerful and practical to extract latent features in the signal for process monitoring. A linear dimension reduction method called nonlocal orthogonal preserving embedding (NLOPE) and its nonlinear form named nonlocal kernel orthogonal preserving embedding (NLKOPE) are proposed and applied for condition monitoring and fault detection. Different from kernel orthogonal neighborhood preserving embedding (KONPE) and kernel principal component analysis (KPCA), the NLOPE and NLKOPE models aim at preserving global and local data structures simultaneously by constructing a dual-objective optimization function. In order to adjust the trade-off between global and local data structures, a weighted parameter is introduced to balance the objective function. Compared with KONPE and KPCA, NLKOPE combines both the advantages of KONPE and KPCA, and NLKOPE is also more powerful in extracting potential useful features in nonlinear data set than NLOPE. For the purpose of condition monitoring and fault detection, monitoring statistics are constructed in feature space. Finally, three case studies on the gearbox and bearing test rig are carried out to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed nonlinear fault detection method.

De-Noising Method Based on Dual-Tree Complex Wavelet Packet Transform and Principal Manifold and its Application for Fault Diagnosis

Abstract: In order to extract the week fault features contained in the vibration signal of the mechanical equipment, a new de-nosing method based on dual-tree complex wavelet packet transform (DTCWPT) and principal manifold was proposed. Firstly, the vibration signals were decomposed into several sub-frequency bands by DTCWPT, the Shannon entropy was used to seek the best basis of DTCWPT, and a new adaptive threshold function was employed to denoise the wavelet packet coefficients on the best basis of the real part and imaginary part of DTCWPT via the de-noising criterion, then the wavelet packet coefficients were reconstructed into a high dimensional space. Secondly, t-distributed stochastic neighbor embedding (t-SNE) was performed to extract a low dimensional manifold, the proposed threshold function was further applied to process the low dimensional manifold, aiming at separate the signal and noise, the principal manifold was reconstructed by the method of spectral regression analysis, thus, the signals were reconstructed back into one dimensional time series after eliminating the noise. Finally, a simulated signal and a real bearing fault signal were used to validate the proposed method, the results have demonstrated that the proposed method has a good performance of nonlinear noise reduction, and can extract fault features of rolling bearing effectively.

RenyiBS: Renyi entropy basis selection from wavelet packet decomposition tree for phonocardiogram classification

Abstract: Wavelet packet transform (WPT) is a powerful mathematical tool for analyzing nonlinear biomedical signals, such as phonocardiogram (PCG). WPT decomposes a PCG signal into a full binary tree of details and approximation coefficients. Appropriate nodes of the tree could be selected as a basis for generating features. Motivated by this, we propose the Renyi entropy basis selection (RenyiBS) method. In RenyiBS method, we use the Renyi entropy as an information measure to choose the best basis of the wavelet packet tree of PCG signals for feature selection and classification. The Renyi entropy estimates the spectral complexity of a signal, which is vital for characterizing nonlinear signals such as PCGs. After selecting the best basis, we define features on the coefficients of the selected nodes. Then, we classify PCGs using the support vector machine (SVM) classifier. In the simulation, we examine a set of 820 heart sound cycles, including normal heart sounds and three types of heart murmurs. The three murmurs examined include aortic regurgitation, mitral regurgitation, and aortic stenosis. We achieved the promising result of 99.74% accuracy, confirming the ability of Renyi entropy to select an appropriate basis of the wavelet packet tree and extracting the nonlinear behavior of particular heart sounds. Besides, the superiority of our proposed information measure in comparison with other information measures reported before is shown.

Ternary binary fractal wavelet sparse diagnosis method for rolling bearing fault

Abstract: The invention discloses a ternary binary fractal wavelet sparse diagnosis method for rolling bearing faults, and relates to a mechanical fault diagnosis method. The method comprises: carrying out multi-scale iterative decomposition on the vibration acceleration signal by adopting a finite impulse response filter bank to obtain 3.2J-1 wavelet subspaces; and testing the response function of each subspace through the unit pulse function, and reordering each wavelet subspace by calculating the frequency spectrum energy center of gravity of the response function. On each scale, a transition subspace is constructed by adding non-endpoint adjacent subspaces, so that a new ternary binary fractal wavelet frequency-scale division grid is realized. In order to carry out self-adaptive quantitative identification on potential periodic impact fault characteristics in each subspace, a periodic sparsity evaluation index is provided and is used for calculating the specific gravity of characteristic frequency multiplication energy in the signal envelope demodulation amplitude spectrum of each subspace in the total energy of the signal. And the type and the position of the fault can be determined according to the characteristic frequency corresponding to the maximum value of the periodic sparse characteristic index.
