The considered LRV has three rolling stocks and each one equips three sensors for monitoring the suspension system. A Kalman filter is applied to generate the residuals for fault diagnosis. For the purpose of fault isolation, a fault feature database is built in advance. The Eros and the norm distance between the fault feature of the new occurred fault and the one in the feature database are applied to measure the similarity of the feature which is the basis for the basic belief assignment to the fault, respectively. After the basic belief assignments are obtained, they are fused by using the D-S evidence theory. The fusion of the basic belief assignments increases the isolation accuracy significantly. The efficiency of the proposed method is demonstrated by two case studies.展开更多

In order to simplify the structure of BP neural network, two parallel BP neural networks are used to diagnose the fault data at first; and then, using the evidence theory to fuse the local diagnostic results, the accurate inference of the inaccurate information is realized, and the accurate diagnosis resuh is obtained. The method is applied to the fault diagnosis of the hydraulic driven servo system （HDSS） in a certain type of rocket launcher, which realizes the fault location and diagnosis of the main components of the hydraulic driven servo system, and effectively improves the reliability of the system.展开更多

Thus, we can not only solve a series of problems caused by rapid growth in size and complexity of neural network structure with diagnosis parameters increasing, but also can provide effective method for basic probability assignment in D-S Theory. The application of the strategy to diagnosing faults of motor bearings has proved that this method is of fairly high accuracy and reliability in fault diagnosis.展开更多
