According to investigation, more than half of rotating machinery defects are related to bearing faults. However, reliable bearing fault detection still remains a challenging task, especially in industrial applications. The objective of this work is to propose an adaptive variational mode decomposition (AVMD) technique for non-stationary signal analysis and bearing fault detection. The AVMD includes several steps in processing: 1) Signal characteristics are analyzed to determine the signal center frequency and the related parameters. 2) The ensemble-kurtosis index is suggested to decompose the target signal and select the most representative intrinsic mode functions (IMFs). 3) The envelope spectrum analysis is performed using the selected IMFs to identify the characteristic features for bearing fault detection. The effectiveness of the proposed AVMD technique is examined by experimental tests under different bearing conditions, with the comparison of other related bearing fault techniques.展开更多

In order to solve the problem of poor signal detection performance in classical tristable stochastic resonance system(CTSR), a novel unsaturated piecewise linear symmetric tristable stochastic resonance system(PLSTSR) is proposed. Firstly, by making the analysis and comparison of the output and input relationship between CTSR and PLSTSR, it is verified that the PLSTSR has good unsaturation characteristics. Then, on the basis of adiabatic approximation theory, the Kramers escape rate, the mean first-passage time(MFPT), and output signal-to-noise ratio(SNR) of PLSTSR are deduced, and the influences of different system parameters on them are studied. Combined with the adaptive genetic algorithm to synergistically optimize the system parameters, the PLSTSR and CTSR are used for numerically simulating the verification and detection of low-frequency, high-frequency,and multi-frequency signals. And the results show that the SNR and output amplitude of the PLSTSR are greatly improved compared with those of the CTSR, and the detection effect is better. Finally, the PLSTSR and CTSR are applied to the bearing fault detection under Gaussian white noise and Levy noise. The experimental results also show that the PLSTSR can obtain larger output amplitude and SNR, and can detect fault signals more easily, which proves that the system has better performance than other systems in bearing fault detection, and has good theoretical significance and practical value.展开更多
