    Multi-fault bearing diagnosis under time-varying conditions using Empirical Wavelet Transform, Gaussian mixture model, and Random Forest classifier
    (SAGE Publications Inc., 2024) Imane, Moussaoui; Rahmoune, Chemseddine; Zair, Moahmed; Benazzouz, Djamel
    Bearing faults can cause heavy disruptions in machinery operation, which is why their reliable diagnosis is crucial. While current research into bearing fault analysis focuses on analyzing vibration data under constant working conditions, it is important to consider the challenges that arise when machinery runs at variable speeds, which is usually the case. This article proposes a multistage classifier for diagnosing bearings under time-variable conditions. We validate our method using vibration signals from five bearing health states, including a combined fault case. Our approach involves decomposing the signals using Empirical Wavelet Transform and computing temporal and frequency domain attributes. We use the Expectation-Maximization Gaussian mixture model for optimization concerns to identify relevant parameters and train the Random Forest classifier with the selected features. Our method, evaluated using the Polygon Area Metric, has demonstrated high effectiveness in diagnosing bearings under time-variable conditions. Our approach offers a promising solution that efficiently addresses speed variability and combined fault recognition issues.

    Intelligent fault classification of air compressors using Harris hawks optimization and machine learning algorithms
    (SAGE, 2024) Afia, Adel; Gougam, Fawzi; Rahmoune, Chemseddine; Touzout, Walid; Ouelmokhtar, Hand; Benazzouz, Djamel
    Due to their complexity and often harsh working environment, air compressors are inevitably exposed to a variety of faults and defects during their operation. Thus, condition monitoring is critically required for early fault recognition and detection to avoid any type industrial failures. In this paper, an intelligent algorithm for reciprocating air compressor fault diagnosis is developed using real-time acoustic signals acquired from an air compressor with one healthy and seven different faulty states such as leakage inlet valve (LIV), leakage outlet valve (LOV), non-return valve (NRV), piston ring, flywheel, rider-belt and bearing defects. The proposed algorithm mainly consists of three steps: feature extraction, selection, and classification. For feature extraction, experimental acoustic signals are decomposed using maximal overlap discrete wavelet packet transform (MODWPT) by six levels into 64 wavelet coefficients (nodes). Thereafter, time domain features are calculated for each node to build each air compressor’s health state feature matrix. Each feature matrix dimension is reduced by selecting the most useful features using Harris hawks optimization (HHO) in the feature selection step. Finally, for feature classification, selected features are used as inputs for random forest (RF), ensemble tree (ET) and K-nearest neighbors (KNN) to detect, identify, and classify the compressor health states with high classification accuracy. Comparative studies with several feature extraction and selection methods prove the proposed approach’s efficiency in detecting, identifying, and classifying all air compressor faults.

    Rolling bearing fault feature selection based on standard deviation and random forest classifier using vibration signals
    (SAGE, 2023) Moussaoui, Imane; Rahmoune, Chemseddine; Benazzouz, Djamel
    The precise identification of faults is vital for ensuring the reliability of the bearing’s performance, and thus, the functionality of rotary machinery. The focus of our study is on the role that feature selection plays in improving the accuracy of predictive models used for diagnosis. The study combined the Standard Deviation (STD) parameter with the Random Forest (RF) classifier to select relevant features from vibration signals obtained from bearings operating under various conditions. We utilized three databases with different bearings’ health states operating under distinct conditions. The results of the study were promising, indicating that the proposed method was not only effective but also consistent, even under time-varying conditions
