Title
A Coarse TF Ridge-Guided Multi-Band Feature Extraction Method for Bearing Fault Diagnosis Under Varying Speed Conditions.
Abstract
Currently, most of the vibration signal analysis methods for bearing fault diagnosis under varying speed conditions are based on the resampling technology with shaft rotational frequency (SRF). However, the SRF obtained by a fixed tachometer or time-frequency (TF) ridge detection reduces measuring flexibility or introduces errors inevitably. In this paper, a multi-band feature extraction method using coarse IF ridge-guided variational nonlinear chirp mode decomposition (VNCMD) is proposed for bearing fault diagnosis under varying speed conditions. Specifically, the proposed method is conducted as follows. First, the low-frequency component (LFC) and resonance component are extracted by the low-pass filtering and the fast kurtogram method, respectively, to alleviate the noise interference. Second, the coarse TF ridges are identified by a tractable ridge estimation method that is based on the TF representation for preliminary selection of the initial instantaneous frequency. Third, the coarse TF ridge-guided VNCMD is constructed to track the SRF and instantaneous fault characteristic frequency (IFCF) from the envelope signals of the LFC and the resonance component, respectively. Finally, the characteristic frequency ratio is computed on the basis of the values of SRF and IFCF to determine the fault type of ball bearing without resampling. The simulation studies and experimental verifications confirm that the proposed method can accurately locate bearing defect types and outperforms some existing methods.
