The invention relates to an electromechanical device nonlinear failure prediction method, comprising the following steps: 1, obtain data which can represent the running state of a device and select a section continuous vibration
signal which has a long course and is sensitive to the failure to analyze; 2, respectively carry out exceptional value
elimination and
missing data filling to the vibration data by a 3 sigma method and an interpolation method; 3, carry out
noise reduction to the vibration
signal by a lifting
wavelet method; 4, decompose the vibration
signal after the
noise reduction to corresponding characteristic bandwidths; 5, obtain a low dimension manifold character by utilizing a typical predicted characteristic bandwidth and adopting a
nonlinear manifold learning method through decoupling of topological mapping and non-failure
energy information; 6, carry out intelligent failure prediction with long course trend in a
time domain by utilizing a
recurrent neural network which has the dynamic self-adaptive characteristic and a first dimension of the low dimension manifold character as a neural network input. The lifting
wavelet method is adopted in the invention, the
algorithm is simple, the arithmetic speed is high, and the used memory is less, thereby being suitable for the characteristic bandwidth abstraction of failure character. The electromechanical device nonlinear failure prediction method can be widely applied to the failure prediction of all kinds of electromechanical devices.
