Abstract

Early identification of faults in rolling element bearings is a challenging task; especially extracting transient characteristics from a noisy signal and identifying bearings fault become critical steps. In this paper, a novel method for real time fault detection in rolling element bearings is proposed to deal with non-stationary fault signals from frequency and energy perspective. Second-order blind identification (SOBI) and wavelet packet decomposition are organically integrated to diagnose the early bearing faults, the fault vibration signals are processed by SOBI algorithm, and feature information is extracted; meanwhile, fault vibration signals are decomposed by the wavelet packet, the energy of terminal nodes(at the bottom layer of wavelet packet decomposition) are analyzed because the energy of terminal nodes has different sensitive to different component faults. Therefore, the bearing faults can be diagnosed by organic combination of fault characteristic frequency analysis and energy of the terminal nodes, and the effectiveness, feasibility and robustness of the proposed method have been verified by experimental data.
