An Effective Gear Fault Diagnosis Method Based on Singular Value Decomposition and Frequency Slice Wavelet Transform

الملخص EN

The ability of the frequency slice wavelet transform (FSWT) to distinguish the fault feature is weak under the condition of strong background noise; in order to solve this problem, a fault feature extraction method combining the singular value decomposition (SVD) and FSWT was proposed.

Firstly, the Hankel matrix was constructed using SVD, based on which the SVD order was determined according to the principle of the single side maximum value.

Then, the denoised signal was further processed by the FSWT to obtain the time-frequency spectrum of the passband.

Finally, the detailed analysis was carried out in the time-frequency area with concentrated energy, and the signal was reconstructed by the inverse-FSWT.

The processing effect for the pitting corrosion and the tooth broken faults of the gears shows that the faulty feature can be extracted effectively from the envelope spectrum of the reconstructed signal, which means the proposed method is able to help obtain a qualified result and has the potential to be carried out for the practical engineering application.
