Abstract

Purpose

Rotating machinery fault diagnosis is getting more attention nowadays as it improves industrial safety. Most fault diagnosis approaches proposed by researchers can diagnose only one fault at a time. However, compound defects tend to occur more frequently because of the close interaction of many components in industrial applications. Hence, a compound fault diagnosis is required to operate the machinery safely over a long time.

Methods

In this study, a unique Bessel kernel-based Time–Frequency Distribution known as the Bessel Transform is proposed as a technique for the fault detection of a compound gear-bearing system. The Bessel Transform is paired with a feature selection technique based on an artificial bee colony algorithm to choose the features that provide accurate information about the problems. Finally, the chosen features are classified using a long-short memory network.

Results

A case study is used to validate the effectiveness of the suggested approach, and a testing efficiency of 96.75% is achieved.

Conclusion

The results show that the proposed transform in compound gear-bearing fault identification is adequate compared with the traditional time–frequency transforms in compound gear-bearing identification.
