This paper presents an intelligent fault diagnosis method based on ensemble-refined composite multiscale fluctuation-based reverse dispersion entropy (ERCMFRDE) for a wind turbine gearbox vibration signal that is nonstationary and nonlinear and for noise problems. Firstly, improved complete ensemble empirical mode decomposition with adaptive noise (ICEEMDAN) and stationary wavelet transform (SWT) are adopted for signal decomposition, noise reduction, and restructuring of gearbox signals. Secondly, we extend the single coarse-graining processing method of refined composite multiscale fluctuation-based reverse dispersion entropy (RCMFRDE) to the multiorder moment coarse-grained processing method, extracting mixed fault feature sets for denoised signals. Finally, the diagnostic results are obtained based on the least squares support vector machine (LSSVM). The dataset collected during the gearbox fault simulation on the experimental platform is employed as the research object, and the experiments are conducted using the method proposed in this paper. The experimental results demonstrate that the proposed method is an effective and reliable approach for accurately diagnosing gearbox faults, exhibiting high diagnostic accuracy and a robust performance.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/e26080705","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2024,8,20]],"date-time":"2024-08-20T01:38:45Z","timestamp":1724117925000},"page":"705","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":7,"title":["Fault Diagnosis Method for Wind Turbine Gearbox Based on Ensemble-Refined Composite Multiscale Fluctuation-Based Reverse Dispersion Entropy"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"26","author":[{"given":"Xiang","family":"Wang","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Energy and Power Engineering, Nanjing Institute of Technology, Nanjing 211167, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Yang","family":"Du","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Electrical Engineering, Nanjing Institute of Technology, Nanjing 211167, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2024,8,20]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"117297","DOI":"10.1016\/j.eswa.2022.117297","article-title":"Construction of health indicators for condition monitoring of rotating machinery: A review of the research","volume":"203","author":"Zhou","year":"2022","journal-title":"Expert Syst.
