Abstract

ABSTRACT Efficient and timely identification of bearing faults is imperative to ensure operational normalcy, reduced down-times and health hazards in motor fault tolerant control systems. This paper proposes a fault diagnosis method that combines the vibration information with time-varying rotational speed for effective fault diagnosis under non-stationary conditions. The complex wavelet transform is used to encode both the vibrational and rotational signals in 2d representations for spatial feature extraction. An efficient algorithm is proposed to select the mother wavelet with the least average entropy. Moreover, a spatial decomposition-based approach using factorised convolutions is used to create a light-weight fuzzy convolutional neural network named Split-Operation Fuzzy Convolutional Neural Network (SOF-CNN) for semi rule-based feature extraction and classification. The performance was evaluated on the University of Ottawa (UOO) dataset for multiple speed conditions and cross-condition validation with the highest accuracy yield being 99.92% from the fourth condition and 3rd trial acquired via averaged 10-Fold Cross Validation. The average accuracy yield across all the scenario was 99.89% with 64.73% being the highest accuracy for cross-condition validation. The performance was evaluated across a diverse range of evaluation criterion including both quantitative and statistical tests.
