Abstract In today’s world, smart electric vehicles are deeply integrated with smart energy, smart transportation and smart cities. In electric vehicles (EVs), owing to the harsh working conditions, mechanical parts are prone to fatigue damages, which endanger the driving safety of EVs. The practice has proved that the identification of periodic impact characteristics (PICs) can effectively indicate mechanical faults. This paper proposes a novel model-based approach for intelligent fault diagnosis of mechanical transmission train in EVs. The essential idea of this approach lies in the fusion of statistical information and model information from a dynamic process.… More >

Abstract In the field of energy conversion, the increasing attention on power electronic equipment is fault detection and diagnosis. A power electronic circuit is an essential part of a power electronic system. The state of its internal components affects the performance of the system. The stability and reliability of an energy system can be improved by studying the fault diagnosis of power electronic circuits. Therefore, an algorithm based on adaptive simulated annealing particle swarm optimization (ASAPSO) was used in the present study to optimize a backpropagation (BP) neural network employed for the online fault diagnosis of… More >

Abstract Rooftop units (RTUs) were commonly employed in small commercial buildings that represent that can frequently do not take the higher level maintenance that chillers receive. Fault detection and diagnosis (FDD) tools can be employed for RTU methods to ensure essential faults are addressed promptly. In this aspect, this article presents an Optimal Deep Belief Network based Fault Detection and Classification on Packaged Rooftop Units (ODBNFDC-PRTU) model. The ODBNFDC-PRTU technique considers fault diagnosis as a multi-class classification problem and is handled using DL models. For fault diagnosis in RTUs, the ODBNFDC-PRTU model exploits the deep belief More >

Abstract Induction motors (IMs) typically fail due to the rate of stator short-circuits. Because of the similarity of the thermal images produced by various instances of short-circuit and the minor interclass distinctions between categories, non-destructive fault detection is universally perceived as a difficult issue. This paper adopts the deep learning model combined with feature fusion methods based on the image’s low-level features with higher resolution and more position and details and high-level features with more semantic information to develop a high-accuracy classification-detection approach for the fault diagnosis of IMs. Based on the publicly available thermal images More > Graphic Abstract

Abstract Power transformer is one of the most crucial devices in power grid. It is significant to determine incipient faults of power transformers fast and accurately. Input features play critical roles in fault diagnosis accuracy. In order to further improve the fault diagnosis performance of power transformers, a random forest feature selection method coupled with optimized kernel extreme learning machine is presented in this study. Firstly, the random forest feature selection approach is adopted to rank 42 related input features derived from gas concentration, gas ratio and energy-weighted dissolved gas analysis. Afterwards, a kernel extreme learning… More >

Abstract The imbalance of dissolved gas analysis (DGA) data will lead to over-fitting, weak generalization and poor recognition performance for fault diagnosis models based on deep learning. To handle this problem, a novel transformer fault diagnosis method based on improved auxiliary classifier generative adversarial network (ACGAN) under imbalanced data is proposed in this paper, which meets both the requirements of balancing DGA data and supplying accurate diagnosis results. The generator combines one-dimensional convolutional neural networks (1D-CNN) and long short-term memories (LSTM), which can deeply extract the features from DGA samples and be greatly beneficial to ACGAN’s… More >

Abstract Software test case optimization improves the efficiency of the software by proper structure and reduces the fault in the software. The existing research applies various optimization methods such as Genetic Algorithm, Crow Search Algorithm, Ant Colony Optimization, etc., for test case optimization. The existing methods have limitations of lower efficiency in fault diagnosis, higher computational time, and high memory requirement. The existing methods have lower efficiency in software test case optimization when the number of test cases is high. This research proposes the Tournament Winner Genetic Algorithm (TW-GA) method to improve the efficiency of software… More >

Abstract Fault diagnosis plays an irreplaceable role in the normal operation of equipment. A fault diagnosis model is often required to be interpretable for increasing the trust between humans and the model. Due to the understandable knowledge expression and transparent reasoning process, the belief rule base (BRB) has extensive applications as an interpretable expert system in fault diagnosis. Optimization is an effective means to weaken the subjectivity of experts in BRB, where the interpretability of BRB may be weakened. Hence, to obtain a credible result, the weakening factors of interpretability in the BRB-based fault diagnosis model… More > Graphic Abstract
