一种融合多传感器数据的数模联动机械剩余寿命预测方法

随着传感和信息技术的发展,各式各样的传感器获取了机械装备海量的监测数据,让剩余寿命预测有"据"可依,推动机械剩余寿命预测进入了大数据时代。但由于数据类型多样、量大面广,如何利用丰富的多传感器数据,从中快速挖掘健康状态退化信息,指导寿命预测,成为大数据时代下机械寿命预测的全新挑战。基于模型的寿命预测方法大多仅针对单一监测数据进行建模分析,无法有效利用丰富的大数据资源。数据驱动的方法则过分依赖训练数据,缺乏必要的经验指引,方法的可解释性差。为了有效利用多传感器数据指导寿命预测,从数模联动的思路出发,建立了一种融合多传感器数据的数模联动寿命预测方法。采用一种通用的Wiener过程模型对健康状态退化过程进行描述,分别建立多源观测函数和多源映射函数对状态与数据之间的因果关系和关联关系进行描述,采用粒子滤波算法将多传感器数据与模型进行动态匹配,预测剩余寿命。在提出方法的统一框架指导下,选取三种特定模型对铣刀剩余寿命进行预测,验证了提出方法的有效性。

Remaining Useful Life Model and Assessment of Mechanical Products: A Brief Review and a Note on the State Space Model Method

The remaining useful life(RUL) prediction of mechanical products has been widely studied for online system performance reliability, device remanufacturing, and product safety(safety awareness and safety improvement). These studies incorporated many di erent models, algorithms, and techniques for modeling and assessment. In this paper, methods of RUL assessment are summarized and expounded upon using two major methods: physics model based and data driven based methods. The advantages and disadvantages of each of these methods are deliberated and compared as well. Due to the intricacy of failure mechanism in system, and di culty in physics degradation observation, RUL assessment based on observations of performance variables turns into a science in evaluating the degradation. A modeling method from control systems, the state space model(SSM), as a first order hidden Markov, is presented. In the context of non-linear and non-Gaussian systems, the SSM methodology is capable of performing remaining life assessment by using Bayesian estimation(sequential Monte Carlo). Being e ective for non-linear and non-Gaussian dynamics, the methodology can perform the assessment recursively online for applications in CBM(condition based maintenance), PHM(prognostics and health management), remanufacturing, and system performance reliability. Finally, the discussion raises concerns regarding online sensing data for SSM modeling and assessment of RUL.

Adaptive relevant vector machine based RUL prediction under uncertain conditions

Engineering systems often suffer with many uncertainties during their performance degradation processes, such as the inherent uncertainties associated with the degradation progression over time and the inevitable uncertainties caused by change of loading, operation and usage conditions. In order to improve the accuracy of remaining useful life (RUL) prediction, this study takes these common uncertainties into consideration via an improved relevance vector machine (RVM) approach, which can describe accurately the degradation process from fault to failure. Firstly, based on historical data, a multi-step RVM regression model is established offline, in which the uncertainties are represented by the variances of Gaussian distributions of parameters and then are quantified as time-varying variables. Then, an adaptive RVM model is trained and the time-varying variables are updated by the expectation–maximization (EM) algorithm. For on-line prediction, given the real-time data, the RUL is forecasted by the first hitting time (FHT) method in probability perspective. The proposed method is demonstrated by two case studies on a high-speed train’s traction system. The results can show the effectiveness of the proposed method.

Sequential Monte Carlo Method Toward Online RUL Assessment with Applications

Online assessment of remaining useful life(RUL) of a system or device has been widely studied for performance reliability, production safety, system conditional maintenance, and decision in remanufacturing engineering. However,there is no consistency framework to solve the RUL recursive estimation for the complex degenerate systems/device.In this paper, state space model(SSM) with Bayesian online estimation expounded from Markov chain Monte Carlo(MCMC) to Sequential Monte Carlo(SMC) algorithm is presented in order to derive the optimal Bayesian estimation.In the context of nonlinear non-Gaussian dynamic systems, SMC(also named particle filter, PF) is quite capable of performing filtering and RUL assessment recursively. The underlying deterioration of a system/device is seen as a stochastic process with continuous, nonreversible degrading. The state of the deterioration tendency is filtered and predicted with updating observations through the SMC procedure. The corresponding remaining useful life of the system/device is estimated based on the state degradation and a predefined threshold of the failure with two-sided criterion. The paper presents an application on a milling machine for cutter tool RUL assessment by applying the above proposed methodology. The example shows the promising results and the effectiveness of SSM and SMC online assessment of RUL.

Deep Spatiotemporal Convolutional-Neural-Network-Based Remaining Useful Life Estimation of Bearings

The remaining useful life(RUL) estimation of bearings is critical for ensuring the reliability of mechanical systems. Owing to the rapid development of deep learning methods, a multitude of data-driven RUL estimation approaches have been proposed recently. However, the following problems remain in existing methods: 1) Most network models use raw data or statistical features as input, which renders it di cult to extract complex fault-related information hidden in signals; 2) for current observations, the dependence between current states is emphasized, but their complex dependence on previous states is often disregarded; 3) the output of neural networks is directly used as the estimated RUL in most studies, resulting in extremely volatile prediction results that lack robustness. Hence, a novel prognostics approach is proposed based on a time–frequency representation(TFR) subsequence, three-dimensional convolutional neural network(3 DCNN), and Gaussian process regression(GPR). The approach primarily comprises two aspects: construction of a health indicator(HI) using the TFR-subsequence–3 DCNN model, and RUL estimation based on the GPR model. The raw signals of the bearings are converted into TFR-subsequences by continuous wavelet transform and a dislocated overlapping strategy. Subsequently, the 3 DCNN is applied to extract the hidden spatiotemporal features from the TFR-subsequences and construct HIs. Finally, the RUL of the bearings is estimated using the GPR model, which can also define the probability distribution of the potential function and prediction confidence. Experiments on the PRONOSTIA platform demonstrate the superiority of the proposed TFR-subsequence–3 DCNN–GPR approach. The use of degradation-related spatiotemporal features in signals is proposed herein to achieve a highly accurate bearing RUL prediction with uncertainty quantification.
