Summary: This paper proposes a novel method for selecting the optimal demodulation frequency band (ODFB) of rolling bearing vibration signals, called traversal index enhanced-gram (TIEgram) method. Through traversal segmentation model and weighted fusion indicator, this method can effectively select the ODFB of rolling bearing vibration signals, leading to a more accurate diagnosis effect.

Summary: This article proposes a digital twin model of life-cycle rolling bearing driven by the combination of data and model. By using measured signals and the bearing fault dynamic model, the size and evolution law of bearing defects can be estimated. These information is then introduced into the bearing dynamic model in virtual space, and finally the data in virtual space is mapped to the corresponding data in physical space using an improved neural network.

Summary: Maximum CYCBD is a blind deconvolution method used to extract faults in mechanical systems. It faces challenges of setting the cyclic frequency in advance and defining a suitable filter length. To address these issues, an optimal maximum CYCBD method is developed. It involves processing raw signals, estimating the cyclic frequency, and determining the filter length adaptively. The proposed method is validated with data from a bearing dataset and experimental test rigs.

Summary: This paper examines the rating lives of wind turbine main bearings and finds that ISO 281 rating life assessment does not account for reported rates of main bearing failures. It recommends conducting similar analyses to identify the causes of main bearing failures and possibly developing a new application standard specific to this component.
