Abstract
Mechanical equipment is composed of several parts, and the interaction between parts exists throughout the whole life cycle, leading to the widespread phenomenon of fault coupling. The diagnosis of independent faults cannot meet the requirements of the health management of mechanical equipment under actual working conditions. In this paper, the dynamic vertex interpretable graph neural network (DIGNN) is proposed to solve the problem of coupling fault diagnosis, in which dynamic vertices are defined in the data topology. First, in the date preprocessing phase, wavelet transform is utilized to make input features interpretable and reduce the uncertainty of model training. In the fault topology, edge connections are made between nodes according to the fault coupling information, and edge connections are established between dynamic nodes and all other nodes. Second the data topology with dynamic vertices is used in the training phase and in the testing phase, the time series data are only fed into dynamic vertices for classification and analysis, which makes it possible to realize coupling fault diagnosis in an industrial production environment. The features extracted in different layers of DIGNN interpret how the model works. The method proposed in this paper can realize the accurate diagnosis of independent faults in the dataset with an accuracy of 100%, and can effectively judge the coupling mode of coupling faults with a comprehensive accuracy of 88.3%.
