Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of dynamics and reliability design technology of rotating machinery systems, and in particular to a method for optimizing the design of rolling bearing assembly parameters under multi-source uncertainties such as geometric errors, material dispersion, and assembly errors, with reliability as a constraint and robustness as an objective. Background Technology

[0002] As a core component of rotating machinery, the rotor-bearing system undertakes key functions such as power transmission, maintaining motion accuracy, and ensuring efficient and stable operation of equipment. It is widely used in important fields such as aerospace, marine propulsion, energy equipment, and high-end manufacturing. With the development of modern equipment towards higher speed, higher precision, and higher reliability, higher requirements are placed on the dynamic performance and operational stability of rotor-bearing systems.

[0003] As a key component supporting the rotor, the assembly parameters of rolling bearings (such as preload, clearance, mounting angle, and position) have a decisive impact on the stiffness, damping characteristics, critical speed distribution, and overall stability of the rotor-bearing system. A reasonable configuration of rolling bearing assembly parameters can effectively improve the system's dynamic response, enhance load-bearing capacity, and improve disturbance rejection; conversely, improper parameter selection can lead to serious problems such as resonance, instability, or even failure. Therefore, optimizing the design of rolling bearing assembly parameters is an important means of improving the performance of the rotor-bearing system.

[0004] In practical engineering applications, rotor-bearing systems are inevitably affected by various uncertainties, including geometric deviations, material property fluctuations, assembly errors, changes in lubrication conditions, and external load disturbances. These uncertainties can cause system performance to deviate from design expectations, resulting in increased vibration, decreased reliability, or even sudden failures, seriously affecting the safety and availability of the equipment. Traditional deterministic optimization methods are usually based on ideal models and fixed parameter assumptions, which are difficult to cope with performance fluctuations under real operating conditions, and have insufficient robustness and reliability risks. Summary of the Invention

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a robust design method for rolling bearing assembly parameters with rotor reliability constraints, aiming to solve the problem that existing methods are unable to simultaneously satisfy system reliability and robustness under the influence of multi-source uncertainties.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention employs the following technical solution: A robust design method for rolling bearing assembly parameters under rotor reliability constraints includes: Based on the actual rotor-bearing system structure, a dynamic model of the rotor-bearing system is constructed, and the dynamic model is calibrated through experimental verification and parameter identification. Identify the sources of uncertainty parameters in the rotor-bearing system and model them based on probability distributions, constructing an uncertainty parameter vector; simultaneously determine the design variables, construct a design variable vector, and set its upper and lower limits. Based on the uncertainty parameter vector and design variable vector, and combined with the dynamic performance requirements of the rotor-bearing system, a robust objective function and a reliability-based constraint function are constructed to obtain an uncertainty optimization model. By constructing augmented input variables using uncertainty parameter vectors and design variable vectors, a candidate set of orthogonal polynomial basis functions is established. Based on this, polynomial chaos-kriging models are constructed and evaluated for the objective function and constraint function, and the optimal polynomial chaos-kriging model is selected. Using the optimal polynomial chaotic-Kriging model corresponding to the constructed objective function and constraint function, the expected value and standard deviation of the objective function and the failure probability of the constraint function are calculated under each design variable vector. The uncertain optimization model is transformed into an unconstrained single-objective optimization model using the linear weighted sum and penalty function method. By randomly generating a population of individuals for the heuristic optimization algorithm within the feasible region of the design variable vector, the optimal solution of the unconstrained single-objective optimization model is iteratively searched as the rolling bearing assembly scheme.

[0007] Furthermore, the unbalanced response of the rotor-bearing system at the critical speed is taken as the objective function, and the optimization objective is to minimize the mathematical expectation and standard deviation of the unbalanced response. With the first The critical speed is used as a constraint function, requiring that the failure probability of it being less than a given threshold does not exceed a preset allowable upper limit; The uncertainty optimization model is as follows:

[0008] in, For the uncertain parameter vector, To design variable vectors, and Design upper and lower limits for variables; and These represent the expected value and standard deviation, respectively. Let be the objective function. For constraint functions; Given a threshold, This is the maximum allowed limit; Indicates the first The failure probability of a constraint. This represents the total number of constraints. This represents a probability and statistics function.

[0009] Furthermore, by constructing augmented input variables using the uncertainty parameter vector and the design variable vector, a set of candidate orthogonal polynomial basis functions is established, including: Uncertainty parameter vector and design variable vector Combined to form augmented input variables ; Latin hypercube sampling is used to generate parameters within the augmented input variable parameter space. training samples Constructing a training sample set By solving the dynamic model of the rotor-bearing system, the corresponding objective function value is obtained.

The set of candidate orthogonal polynomial basis functions ,in Orthogonal polynomial basis functions For multidimensional indexes, Each element This represents the order of the basis functions of the candidate orthogonal polynomials in different dimensions. A collection of multidimensional indexes.

[0010] Furthermore, multinomial chaotic-kriging models are constructed and evaluated for the objective function and constraint functions, respectively, and the optimal multinomial chaotic-kriging model is selected, including: The method combines minimum angle regression and cross-validation, with the objective function being... and constraint functions From the basis function set of candidate orthogonal polynomials The important terms are selected step by step and used to construct a polynomial chaos-kriging model. Leave-one-out cross-validation is used to evaluate the performance of the polynomial chaos-kriging model and find the optimal polynomial chaos-kriging model.

[0011] Furthermore, the specific process of finding the optimal polynomial chaotic-Kriging model is as follows: Step 4-4-1, for constructing the objective function The polynomial chaotic-Kriging agent model, assuming the training input set The corresponding training output set ; Step 4-4-2, for each multidimensional index that has not been selected Calculate the basis functions of its corresponding orthogonal polynomial. Value vector on training samples ;calculate With the current number The residual of the next iteration correlation Selecting relevance Multidimensional index at maximum Join the The selected basis function index set of the next iteration ; Step 4-4-3, using the least squares method on the ... The set of orthogonal polynomial basis functions for each iteration Fit a polynomial chaotic expansion model and update the residuals. ; Step 4-4-4: Repeat steps 4-4-2 to 4-4-3 until the number of selected orthogonal polynomial basis functions reaches the preset upper limit. This ultimately yields a sparse polynomial basis function set. This includes selecting sequentially. The corresponding orthogonal polynomial basis functions; Step 4-4-5, from the sparse polynomial basis function set Take the front Construct a polynomial chaos-Kriging model using orthogonal polynomial basis functions; Step 4-4-6: For each constructed polynomial chaotic-Kriging model, calculate its leave-one error; in all... Among the polynomial chaotic-Kriging models, the one with the smallest leave-one error is selected as the final optimal polynomial chaotic-Kriging model.

[0012] Furthermore, after determining the corresponding optimal polynomial chaotic-Kriging surrogate model for both the objective function and the constraint function, multiple test samples are generated in the parameter space of the augmented input variables using Latin hypercube sampling to construct a test sample set; the true response corresponding to the test sample set is calculated, i.e., the corresponding set of objective function values ​​and set of constraint function values; the response under the test sample is predicted using the optimal polynomial chaotic-Kriging model; and the coefficient of determination is calculated to evaluate the predictive performance of the model. If the determination coefficients corresponding to all optimal polynomial chaotic-Kriging models are greater than the preset threshold, proceed to the next step; otherwise, add the test set to the training sample set and increase the order of the candidate orthogonal polynomial basis functions to redetermine the optimal polynomial chaotic-Kriging model.

[0013] Furthermore, using the optimal polynomial chaotic-Kriging model corresponding to the constructed objective function and constraint functions, the expected value and standard deviation of the objective function and the failure probability of the constraint functions under each design variable vector are calculated, including: Multiple random samples are generated in the parameter space of the uncertain parameters by Latin hypercube sampling to construct a random sample set. The deterministic design variable vector is concatenated with each random sample to form an augmented input. The optimal polynomial chaos-Kriging model is used to predict the objective function response and constraint function response under each augmented input. Calculate the expected value and standard deviation of the objective function under any set of design variable vectors; at the same time, use Monte Carlo simulation to estimate the failure probability of each constraint function.

[0014] Furthermore, a heuristic optimization algorithm is employed, setting the population size, maximum number of iterations, and convergence criteria. The combination of design variable vectors is used as the individuals in the population, and the design variable vector population is initialized accordingly. The algorithm is then used to calculate the value of each individual. Iteratively update the population until the preset convergence condition is met, and output the optimal individual. The optimal individual component is selected as the rolling bearing assembly scheme that meets the requirements of reliability and robustness. ;in, This means that the uncertain optimization model is transformed into the objective function in the unconstrained single-objective optimization model using the linear weighted sum penalty function method.

Addressing the critical impact of rolling bearing assembly parameters on the performance and reliability of rotor-bearing systems, a robust optimization design framework that balances failure probability constraints and performance objectives is constructed, ensuring good operational stability and a long service life under various assembly deviations and uncertainties. Combining heuristic intelligent optimization algorithms and experimental verification methods, efficient optimization of rolling bearing assembly parameters and verification of engineering feasibility are achieved, forming a closed-loop design process from modeling and optimization to verification. In summary, this invention provides a systematic solution for the reliability and robustness design of complex rotor-bearing systems considering the uncertainties of rolling bearing assembly, possessing significant engineering application value and promising prospects for widespread adoption.

[0045] Step 6: Since multi-objective and multi-constraint optimization problems are difficult to solve due to conflicts in non-convex objectives, the uncertain optimization model (4) is transformed into an unconstrained single-objective optimization model using the linear weighted sum penalty function method: (16) in, This represents the transformed objective function. These are the weighting coefficients used to adjust the expected value and standard deviation; These are parameters that ensure the objective function is non-negative; and These are two regularization factors; These are penalty factors; their function is to ensure that the objectives and constraints are of the same magnitude and can be optimized simultaneously. The constraint violation function is defined as follows: (17) Step 7: Using a heuristic optimization algorithm (such as genetic algorithm, particle swarm optimization, etc.), set the population size, maximum number of iterations, and convergence conditions.

Iteratively update the population until the preset convergence condition is met (such as reaching the maximum number of iterations), and output the optimal individual. The optimal individual component is selected as the rolling bearing assembly scheme that meets the requirements of reliability and robustness. Based on the optimization results, process control strategies and improvement plans for key assembly parameters were formulated. Furthermore, vibration tests and finite element simulations under typical operating conditions were used to verify the dynamic performance and reliability of the optimized system, achieving closed-loop feedback and continuous optimization.
