Abstract:One challenge of bearing fault diagnosis is that the vibration signals are often a nonlinear mixture of unknown source signals. In addition, the practical installation position also limits the number of observed signals. Hence, bearing fault diagnosis is a nonlinear underdetermined blind source separation (UBSS) problem. In this paper, a novel nonlinear UBSS solution based on source number estimation and improved sparse component analysis (SCA) is proposed. Firstly, the ensemble empirical mode decomposition (E… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
