ROLLING BEARING FAULT DIAGNOSIS METHOD BASED ON CONVOLUTIONAL DEEP FOREST

“…Aiming at the vibration signal of rolling bearing with problems of nonlinear,small sample size and traditional machine learning based diagnosis algorithm required expert experience,a convolutional deep forest(CDF)based rolling bearing fault diagnosis algorithm was proposed.Firstly,the one-dimensional vibration signal was preprocessed through normalization and transformation into image.Then the convolution neural network was exploited to train the image to complete the end-to-end feature extraction,and the cascade forest was used to analyze and classify the features.Finally,the effectiveness of CDF was verified on the bearing data set.The experimental results show that CDF can achieve high accuracy for small or big sample data under four loads.In addition,the accuracy of convolution neural network and CDF based on two-dimensional image are higher than one-dimensional,which proves the effectiveness of data preprocessing operation based on signal to image.…”

Meso research on the mechanical properties of rock specimens with double prefabricated circular holes based on digital image correlation by Nengbin Chen, Yu Zhou, Yongtao Gao, Zheng Sun, Li Wang

“…The main findings are as follows: (1) In the early stages of the test loading, as the load increases, it can be found from the evolution of the cloud diagrams that the strain is transferred from the initial distribution around the prefabricated circular holes to the upper and lower ends of the prefabricated circular holes, and gradually extends outward along the vertical direction. (2) During the period from the stable expansion phase of the crack to the nonstable expansion phase, when the stress-strain curve has a stress drop, it is accompanied by a sharp increase in the number of acoustic emission events. …”

Skill and efficiency in Acheulian giant core reduction by Coen G. Wilson, Matthew V. Caruana, Bruce Bradley, Andy I. R. Herries

“…Our results show that knapping expertise is correlated with increased efficiency in exploiting core volume and creating blanks with morphometric features that are ideal for shaping LCTs. We further argue that economizing LCT shaping processes through front-loading time investment in blank production probably involved expert cognition and may have had social implications for skill development in the deep past.…”
