Abstract

The spatial information of the signal is neglected by the conventional frequency/time decompositions such as the fast Fourier transformation, principal component analysis, and independent component analysis. Framing of the data being as a three-way array indexed by channel, frequency, and time allows the application of parallel factor analysis, which is known as a unique multi-way decomposition. The parallel factor analysis was used to decompose the wavelet transformed ongoing diagnostic channel–frequency–time signal and each atom is trilinearly decomposed into spatial, spectral, and temporal signature. The time–frequency–space characteristics of the single-source fault signal was extracted from the multi-source dynamic feature recognition of mechanical nonlinear multi-failure mode and the corresponding relationship between the nonlinear variable, multi-fault mode, and multi-source fault features in time, frequency, and space was obtained. In this article, a new method for the multi-fault condition monitoring of slurry pump based on parallel factor analysis and continuous wavelet transform was developed to meet the requirements of automatic monitoring and fault diagnosis of industrial process production lines. The multi-scale parallel factorization theory was studied and a three-dimensional time–frequency–space model reconstruction algorithm for multi-source feature factors that improves the accuracy of mechanical fault detection and intelligent levels was proposed.
