Abstract: To solve the problem of poor separation and extraction for compound fault features, a fault feature extraction method based on component weighted reconstruction (CWR) and sparse non-negative matrix factorization (SNMF) is proposed for the fault of in-wheel motor bearings. Firstly, a fusion index CIH is proposed to evaluate the information of the vibration signal from multiple perspectives and adaptively select the product function (PF) component by the local mean decomposition, then perform CWR to enhance the expression of fault characteristics. Secondly, the relationship between singular values and implicit subspace of the time-frequency energy matrix of the constructed signal is analysed, and the smoothing coefficient of the constructed signal is defined based on the variance ratio of the singular values, which is used to estimate the optimal decomposition dimension of the SNMF algorithm. Finally, Itakura-Saito (IS) distance and sparse constraint are employed to establish a SNMF algorithm, which is used to decompose the time-frequency energy matrix for dimension reduction. The subspace time-domain separation signals are obtained by the inverse short-time Fourier transform, and the fault features are extracted by spectral envelope analysis. Simulation and experiment results prove that the proposed method has realized effectively the separation and extraction of compound fault features, and has certain value in engineering application.
