Abstract:
The Wiener-process-based Degradation Approach with Two-phase Algorithm (W-DATA) is introduced as a multi-dimensional framework explicitly designed for modeling mechanical system reliability. This approach leverages an enhanced Empirical Mode Decomposition, known as P-EMD, for degradation feature extraction, and utilizes Approximate Entropy (ApEn) for quantifying feature complexities. W-DATA seamlessly integrates these components into a time-resolved degradation model. To enhance its robustness, the proposed reliability model synergizes with a Box-Cox transformed Wiener model, allowing for improved adaptability to non-Gaussian data landscapes. The paper outlines a strategy for establishing a reliable threshold for this data-driven degradation model based on non-Gaussian data, a critical aspect for reliability modeling using the Wiener process. This strategy addresses the challenge of Wiener process verification through normality and independent testing of data increments. The integrative methodology is recommended for application in machinery reliability analytics and has undergone rigorous validation through a 770Â h real-world test on a marine lubricating oil pump reducer. The results affirm its efficacy and feasibility in accurately estimating mechanical system reliability.
