Abstract

Main shaft bearings are essential transmission components in wind turbines. The failure of the main shaft bearings is inevitably accompanied by catastrophic consequences. In this regard, this paper presents a time-dependent reliability-based design optimization (TRBDO) approach for main shaft bearings involving mixed-integer variables. The maximization of fatigue life and the elastohydrodynamic film thickness under the load spectrum are selected as optimization objectives. The time-dependent reliability and geometric correlation are determined as nonlinear constraints. An efficient two-stage enrichment strategy is introduced to handle the time-dependent probabilistic constraint with mixed-integer design variables. A mixed-integer nonlinear optimization method is developed based on a meta-heuristic algorithm to solve the formulated TRBDO problem. Eventually, the effectiveness and robustness of the proposed approach are demonstrated by a real application in a 5 MW wind turbine.
