Abstract

Reliable fault diagnosis of the rolling element bearings highly relies on the correct extraction of fault-related features from vibration signals in time-frequency analysis. However, considering the nonlinear, nonstationary characteristics of vibration signals, the extraction of fault features hidden in the heavy noise has become a challenging task. Variable mode decomposition (VMD) is an adaptive, completely nonrecursive method of mode variation and signal processing. This paper analyzes the advantages of VMD compared with EMD in robustness of against noise, overcoming the end effect and mode aliasing. The signal decomposition performance of VMD algorithm largely depends on the selection of mode number k and bandwidth control parameter α . To realize the adaptability of influence parameters and the improvement of decomposition accuracy, a parameter-optimized VMD method is presented. The random frog leaping algorithm (SFLA) is used to search the optimal combination of influence parameters, and the mode number and bandwidth control parameters are set according to the search results. A multiobjective evaluation function is constructed to select the optimal mode component. The envelope spectrum technique is used to analyze the optimal mode component. The proposed method is evaluated by simulation and practical bearing vibration signals under different conditions. The results show that the proposed method can improve the decomposition accuracy of the signal and the adaptability of the influence parameters and realize the effective extraction of the bearing vibration signal.
