Abstract: In practical applications, the lack of fault samples and the imbalance of fault sample categories often limit the effectiveness of diagnosis. In order to solve the problem of unbalanced bearing fault samples, a digital twin system based on dynamic fault injection is designed, which can not only reflect the normal operation state, but also generate samples of different faults. The system is divided into an agent model part and a parameter identification part: the agent model part adopts a two-freedom bearing dynamics model of the impact response at the fault point, and uses the fourth-order variable-step-length Lunger-Kutta method to perform simulation calculations and generate the simulated vibration data; the parameter identification part combines the original algorithm with the Chebyshev chaotic mapping, the golden sinusoidal strategy, and the adaptive weighting factor method and improves its fitness function to propose an improved dung beetle optimisation algorithm, which can identify the dynamic parameters through the measured vibration data, construct a digital twin system, and realise dynamic fault injection. It is proved through experiments that the fault data generated by this system has a higher accuracy rate compared with the data generated using inverse physical information neural network, CycleGAN and GAN. In addition, after expanding the outer ring fault data by this system, the overall diagnostic accuracy of the diagnostic model is increased by 8.9%, and the diagnostic accuracy of the outer ring fault is increased by 26.7% to 99.8% and 99.5%, respectively, which provides a certain reference for the problem of unbalanced fault samples in the fault diagnosis of rolling bearings.
