Abstract:The vibration signals of rolling bearings are often nonlinear and non-stationary. Multiscale entropy (MSE) has been widely applied to measure the complexity of nonlinear mechanical vibration signals, however, at present only the single channel vibration signals are used for fault diagnosis by many scholars. In this paper multiscale entropy in multivariate framework, i.e., multivariate multiscale entropy (MMSE) is introduced to machinery fault diagnosis to improve the efficiency of fault identification as much as possible through using multi-channel vibration information. MMSE evaluates the multivariate complexity of synchronous multi-channel data and is an effective method for measuring complexity and mutual nonlinear dynamic relationship, but its statistical stability is poor. Refined composite multivariate multiscale fuzzy entropy (RCMMFE) was developed to overcome the problems existing in MMSE and was compared with MSE, multiscale fuzzy entropy, MMSE and multivariate multiscale fuzzy entropy by analyzing simulation data. Finally, a new fault diagnosis method for rolling bearing was proposed based on RCMMFE for fault feature extraction, Laplacian score and particle swarm optimization support vector machine (PSO-SVM) for automatic fault mode identification. The proposed method was compared with the existing methods by analyzing experimental data analysis and the results indicate its effectiveness and superiority.
As a nonlinear dynamic method for complexity measurement of time series, multiscale entropy (MSE) has been successfully applied to fault diagnosis of rolling bearings. However, the MSE algorithm is sensitive to the predetermined parameters and depends heavily on the length of the time series and MSE may yield an inaccurate estimation of entropy or undefined entropy when the length of time series is too short. To improve the robustness of complexity measurement for short time series, a novel nonlinear parameter named multiscale distribution entropy (MDE) was proposed and employed to extract the nonlinear complexity features from vibration signals of rolling bearing in this paper. Combining with t-distributed stochastic neighbor embedding (t-SNE) for feature dimension reduction and Kriging-variable predictive models based class discrimination (KVPMCD) for automatic identification, a new intelligent fault diagnosis method for rolling bearings was proposed. Finally, the proposed approach was applied to analyze the experimental data of rolling bearings and the results indicated that the proposed method could distinguish the different fault categories of rolling bearings effectively.
