Weak Fault Feature Extraction of Rolling Bearing Based on SVMD and Improved MOMEDA

Abstract

In order to solve the problem that it is very difficult to extract fault features directly from the weak impact component of early fault signal of rolling bearing, a method combining continuous variational mode decomposition (SVMD) with modified MOMEDA based on Teager energy operator is proposed. Firstly, the low resonance impulse component in the fault signal is separated from the harmonic component and noise by SVMD, and then the Teager energy operator is used to enhance the impulse feature in the low resonance component to ensure that the accurate fault period is selected by the MOMOEDA algorithm. After further noise reduction by MOMEDA, the envelope spectrum of the signal is analyzed, and finally the fault location is determined. The results of simulation and experimental data show that this method can accurately and effectively extract the characteristic frequency of rolling bearing weak fault.
