A Novel Method for Extracting Maximum Kurtosis Component and Its Applications in Rolling Bearing Fault Diagnosis

الملخص EN

Rolling bearing plays an important role in the overall operation of the mechanical system; therefore, it is necessary to monitor and diagnose the bearings.

Kurtosis is an important index to measure impulses.

Fast Kurtogram method can be applied to the fault diagnosis of rolling bearings by extracting maximum kurtosis component.

However, the final result may disperse the effective fault information to different frequency bands or find wrong frequency band, resulting in inaccurate frequency band selection or misdiagnosis.

In order to find the maximum component of kurtosis accurately, an algorithm of frequency band multidivisional and overlapped based on EWT (MDO-EWT) is proposed in this paper.

This algorithm changes the traditional Fast Kurtogram frequency bands division method and filtering method.

It builds the EWT boundaries based on the maximum kurtosis component in each iteration and finally obtains the maximum kurtosis component.

Through the simulation signal and the rolling bearing inner and outer ring fault signals verification, it is proved that the proposed method has a good performance on accuracy and effectiveness.
