Bearing condition monitoring and prognosis are crucial tasks for ensuring the proper operation of rotating machinery and mechanical systems. Vibration signal analysis is one of the most effective techniques for bearing condition monitoring and prognosis. In this study, the wavelet scattering transform, derived from wavelet transforms and incorporating concepts from scattering transform and convolutional network architectures, was utilized to extract quantitative features from vibration signals. The number of wavelet scattering coefficients obtained from vibration signals of different lengths varied due to the use of predefined wavelet and scaling filters in the wavelet scattering network. Additionally, these wavelet scattering coefficients are associated with different scattering paths within the corresponding wavelet scattering networks. Eight different lengths of vibration signals, associated with fifteen classes of rolling element bearing faults and conditions, were investigated using wavelet scattering feature extraction. The classes of rolling element bearing faults and conditions included normal bearings as well as ball and inner race faults with various fault diameters ranging from 0.007 inches to 0.028 inches. For the specific dataset validated, the computational results indicated that excellent bearing fault classification was achievable using wavelet scattering feature vectors derived from vibration signals with lengths of at least 6000 samples.
轴承状态监测与故障预测是确保旋转机械和机械系统正常运行的关键任务。振动信号分析是轴承状态监测与故障预测最有效的技术之一。在本研究中,从小波变换衍生而来并融合了散射变换和卷积网络架构概念的小波散射变换,被用于从振动信号中提取定量特征。由于在小波散射网络中使用了预定义的小波和尺度滤波器,从不同长度的振动信号中获得的小波散射系数数量有所不同。此外,这些小波散射系数与相应小波散射网络内的不同散射路径相关。使用小波散射特征提取方法,研究了与十五类滚动轴承故障及状态相关的八种不同长度的振动信号。滚动轴承故障及状态类别包括正常轴承以及不同故障直径范围从0.007英寸到0.028英寸的滚珠和内圈故障。对于经过验证的特定数据集,计算结果表明,使用从长度至少为6000个样本的振动信号中提取的小波散射特征向量,可以实现出色的轴承故障分类。
