The new method is based on the Wavelet Packet Transform (WPT) and kernel PCA (Kernel Principal Compo- nent Analysis, KPCA). For non-linear monitoring systems the key to fault detection is the extracting of main features. The wavelet packet transform is a novel technique of signal processing that possesses excellent characteristics of time-frequency localization. It is suitable for analysing time-varying or transient signals. KPCA maps the original input features into a higher dimension feature space through a non-linear mapping. The principal components are then found in the higher dimen- sion feature space. The KPCA transformation was applied to extracting the main nonlinear features from experimental fault feature data after wavelet packet transformation. The results show that the proposed method affords credible fault detection and identification.展开更多

In order to solve this problem, we propose a new gearbox deterioration detection technique based on autoregressive modeling and hypothesis testing in this paper. A stationary autoregressive model was built by using a normal vibration signal from each shaft. The established autoregressive model was then applied to process fault signals from each shaft of a two-stage gearbox. What this paper investigated is a combined technique which unites a time-varying autoregressive model and a two sample Kolmogorov-Smimov goodness-of-fit test, to detect the deterioration of gearing system with simultaneously variable shaft speed and variable load. The time-varying autoregressive model residuals representing both healthy and faulty gear conditions were compared with the original healthy time-synchronous average signals. Compared with the traditional kurtosis statistic, this technique for gearbox deterioration detection has shown significant advantages in highlighting the presence of incipient gear fault in all different speed shafts involved in the meshing motion under variable conditions.展开更多

Most train accidents happened due to occurrence of flashover on roof insulator,but the insulation condition estimation of insulator in such environment is much difficult. To ensure the insulation property of electric equipment,and guarantee the operation safety of high-speed-train,here established an instrument with high reliability which can on-line monitor insulation condition of roof insulator and give out advanced alarm before the incipient insulator flashover. The instrument consists of three parts,Data Acquisition & Sensor,Data Processing and Back Processing. Anti-interference and protection methods are processed to Rogowski coil sensor for better leakage current signal. To avoid the fluctuation from railway power supply,four modules are set to filter the power supply waveform. Through laboratory measurement,it is shown that the leakage current and the impedance angle can be detected by the instrument accurately. From the comparison of leakage current and impedance angle results under different moisture condition and the alarm operation when leakage current value reached threshold,this instrument can give out enough information for staff to understand the insulation condition of insulator.展开更多
