Abstract
Vibration analysis plays a crucial role in fault and abnormality diagnosis in various mechanical systems. However, efficient vibration signal processing is required for valuable diagnosis and hidden patterns’ detection and identification. Hence, the present paper explores the application of a robust signal processing method called maximal overlap discrete wavelet packet transform (MODWPT) that supports multiresolution analysis, allowing for the examination of signal details at different scales. This capability is valuable for identifying faults that may manifest at different frequency ranges. MODWPT is combined with covariance and eigenvalues to signal reconstruction. After that, health indicators are specifically applied on the reconstructed vibration signal for feature extraction. The proposed approach was carried out on an experimental test rig where the obtained results demonstrate its effectiveness through confusion matrix analysis of machine learning tools. The ensemble tree model gives more accurate results (accuracy and stability) of bearing faults classification and efficiently identify potential failures and anomalies in mechanical equipment.
