The application of S-transformation and M-2DPCA in I.C. Engine fault diagnosis

Abstract

According to the problem of parameter selection and feature extraction for vibration diagnosis of traditional internal combustion engine is discussed. The method based on S-transformation and Module Two Dimensional Principal Components Analysis (M-2DPCA) is proposed to carry out fault diagnosis of I.C. Engine valve mechanism. First of all, the method transfers cylinder surface vibration signals of I.C. into images through S-transform. The second, extracting the optimized projection vectors from the general distribution matrix G which is obtained by all sample sub-images, so that vibration spectrum images can be modularized using M-2DPCA. The last, these features matrix obtained from images project will served as the enters of nearest neighbor classifier, it is used to achieve fault types’ division. The method is applied to the diagnosis example of the vibration signal of the valve mechanism eight operating modes, recognition rate up to 94.17 percent; the effectiveness of the proposed method is proved.
