| Summary: | The vibration signals of rolling bearing are often non-stationary and non-linear, and consequently it is much more difficult to extract the deep characteristics in the time domain. In this paper, a new fault diagnosis method is proposed to identify the fault types of rolling bearings combined the benefits of the modified ensemble empirical mode decomposition (MEEMD), quantum particle swarm optimization (QPSO) and least squares support vector machine (LSSVM) algorithms. In this method, the vibration signals are decomposed by the MEEMD algorithm to obtain the intrinsic mode function (IMF) components. After normalizing the energy moment characteristics of each IMF component, the feature vectors can be obtained and conveniently input into the LSSVM model optimized by the QPSO algorithm to perform training and identification. It can effectively improve the performance on decomposition and extraction of vibration signals, and further improve the accuracy of the fault diagnosis. The proposed method is verified by the results of the experiments. It shows that this technique can extract the characteristics of the vibration signals effectively and identify them accurately.
