Description

[Technical Field]

[0001] The present invention relates to a method and apparatus for identifying stick-slip frequencies. [Background technology]

[0002] When an object moves while in contact with another object, a phenomenon known as stick-slip may occur. Stick-slip is a phenomenon in which the object does not move continuously and smoothly, but instead moves intermittently, alternating between slipping and sticking to the other object.

[0003] Conventionally, techniques related to the analysis of stick-slip phenomena have been proposed. For example, Patent Document 1 discloses a method for evaluating the likelihood of stick-slip between a mating material and a rubber test piece, in which the test piece and the mating material are brought into contact with each other under a predetermined load and rotated, based on the maximum friction force at the start of rotation and the kinetic friction force after the friction force has settled to a constant value after rotation. Furthermore, Patent Document 2 discloses a method for evaluating the wear resistance of a test sample by pressing the test sample against the circumferential surface of a rotating body rotated by a drive motor, and for calculating the occurrence period of the stick-slip phenomenon occurring in the test sample based on fluctuations in the power required to rotate the drive motor.

[0004] [Patent Document 1] Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2005-17064 [Patent Document 2] Patent No. 6794684 Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]

[0005] When an object moves while in contact with a contact surface, the object vibrates due to the stick-slip phenomenon. In this specification, the frequency of the vibration of the object caused by the stick-slip phenomenon is called the stick-slip frequency.

[0006] Although the stick-slip frequency can vary depending on the composition and shape of the object or the contact surface, there are cases where it is meaningful to identify the stick-slip frequency. For example, it is thought that the sound generated by stick-slip occurring between the tire and the road surface, i.e., the sound containing many frequency components of the stick-slip frequency, contributes to tire noise. Therefore, if the stick-slip frequency can be identified, it may be possible to control the noise level at the stick-slip frequency by changing the tire composition, pattern shape, etc.

[0007] An object of the present invention is to identify the stick-slip frequency. [Means for solving the problem]

[0008] The present invention provides a stick-slip frequency identification method comprising: a vibration data acquisition step of acquiring vibration data that indicates changes over time in vibration frequency components for each vibration frequency of a rubber test piece when the test piece is pressed against a contact surface and the test piece is moved relative to the contact surface in the planar direction of the contact surface; and a frequency identification step of identifying, in the vibration data, a vibration frequency at which the vibration frequency component is relatively large, as the stick-slip frequency between the test piece and the contact surface.

[0009] When the stick-slip phenomenon occurs, the test piece vibrates at a stick-slip frequency. Therefore, with the above configuration, a vibration frequency having a relatively large vibration frequency component in the vibration data can be identified as the stick-slip frequency.

[0010] The present invention also provides a stick-slip frequency identifying method, comprising: an acoustic data acquiring step of acquiring acoustic data indicating changes over time in acoustic frequency components for each acoustic frequency of sound generated when a rubber test piece is pressed against a contact surface and the test piece is moved relative to the contact surface in the planar direction of the contact surface; and a frequency identifying step of identifying, in the acoustic data, an acoustic frequency at which the acoustic frequency component is relatively large, as the stick-slip frequency between the test piece and the contact surface.

[0011] When the stick-slip phenomenon occurs, the test piece vibrates at the stick-slip frequency, generating a sound whose main component is the stick-slip frequency. Therefore, with the above configuration, it is possible to identify, in the acoustic data, an acoustic frequency that has a relatively large acoustic frequency component as the stick-slip frequency. [Effects of the Invention]

[0012] According to the present invention, the stick-slip frequency can be identified. [Brief explanation of the drawings]

[0014] FIG. 1 is a schematic diagram of a testing apparatus 10 according to this embodiment. The testing apparatus 10 is a device that acquires data for determining the stick-slip frequency of a rubber test piece S. In this embodiment, in order to determine the stick-slip frequency when a rubber tire moves (slips) while in contact with a road surface, the test piece S is a test piece obtained by cutting out a portion of the rubber tire, or a rectangular parallelepiped rubber test piece with a tire pattern engraved on the tread surface. Note that the test piece S may be any object that can cause the stick-slip phenomenon when it moves while in contact with another object.

[0015] The testing device 10 includes a contact surface 12 and a base 14. The contact surface 12 is a surface on which the test piece S moves while contacting it. As shown in Fig. 1, in this specification, the direction parallel to the contact surface 12 is defined as the X-axis direction, the direction parallel to the contact surface 12 and perpendicular to the X-axis direction is defined as the Y-axis direction, and the direction perpendicular to the contact surface 12 is defined as the Z-axis direction.

[0016] As described above, in this embodiment, the stick-slip frequency when the tire moves while in contact with the road surface is specified, and therefore the contact surface 12 is designed to simulate the road surface. In particular, it is preferable that the contact surface 12 be one on which the stick-slip phenomenon is likely to occur in the test piece S. Conditions for the contact surface 12 on which the stick-slip phenomenon is likely to occur in the test piece S include a kinetic friction coefficient of 1.4 or more when the test piece S is moved relative to the contact surface 12 in the surface direction of the contact surface 12, and a mean profile depth (MPD), which represents the roughness of the contact surface 12, of less than 0.1. An example of the contact surface 12 that satisfies these conditions is an aluminum surface.

[0017] The base 14 is a mechanism for moving the test specimen S in the plane direction of the contact surface 12 while contacting the contact surface 12. A rubber test specimen S is adhered to the underside of the base 14. A load is applied to the base 14 toward the contact surface 12 (the negative Z-axis direction) by a mechanism (not shown), thereby pressing the test specimen S against the contact surface 12. In this state, the base 14 moves along the contact surface 12 at a constant speed by the driving force of a motor (not shown). In this embodiment, the base 14 moves in the positive X-axis direction. As a result, the test specimen S moves while contacting the contact surface 12. Note that in this embodiment, the base 14 is a movable part; however, in the testing apparatus 10, it is sufficient that the contact surface 12 and the base 14 (i.e., the test specimen S) move relatively; therefore, the base 14 (test specimen S) may be fixed and the contact surface 12 may be moved in the plane direction.

[0018] The test device 10 also has an acceleration sensor 16. The acceleration sensor 16 is a sensor that detects the vibration level of the test piece S when the test piece S moves in the planar direction of the contact surface 12 while being pressed against the contact surface 12. The acceleration sensor 16 continues to detect the vibration level of the test piece S while the test piece S is moving. The vibration level detected by the acceleration sensor 16 is transmitted to a stick-slip frequency identifying device (described later). Note that the acceleration sensor 16 may be a conventional acceleration sensor, such as a capacitance type acceleration sensor.

[0019] In this embodiment, the testing apparatus 10 has multiple acceleration sensors 16a to 16f. Acceleration sensor 16a detects the vibration level in the X-axis direction on the front side in the direction of movement of the test specimen S. Acceleration sensor 16b detects the vibration level in the Z-axis direction on the front side in the direction of movement of the test specimen S. Acceleration sensor 16c detects the vibration level in the X-axis direction on the rear side in the direction of movement of the test specimen S. Acceleration sensor 16d detects the vibration level in the Z-axis direction on the rear side in the direction of movement of the test specimen S. Acceleration sensor 16e detects the vibration level in the X-axis direction of the base 14. Acceleration sensors 16e and 16f detect the vibration level in the Z-axis direction of the base 14. Although acceleration sensors 16e and 16f are attached to the base 14, they detect vibrations transmitted from the test specimen S to the base 14, and it can be said that acceleration sensors 16e and 16f also detect vibrations of the test specimen S (particularly vibrations of the portion of the test specimen S on the base 14 side).

[0020] The test device 10 further includes a microphone 18. The microphone 18 is a sensor that detects the sound pressure level of the sound generated when the test piece S moves in the planar direction of the contact surface 12 while being pressed against the contact surface 12. The microphone 18 continues to detect the sound pressure level while the test piece S is moving. The microphone 18 is provided on the side of the moving direction of the test piece S. That is, in this embodiment, since the test piece S moves in the X-axis direction, the microphone 18 is provided on the Y-axis side of the test piece S. The sound pressure level detected by the microphone 18 is transmitted to the stick-slip frequency identifying device.

[0021] FIG. 2 is a schematic diagram of the configuration of a stick-slip frequency identifying device 30 according to this embodiment. As will be described in detail later, the stick-slip frequency identifying device 30 is a device that executes stick-slip frequency identifying processing that identifies the stick-slip frequency between the test piece S and the contact surface 12 based on the vibration level of the test piece S detected by the acceleration sensor 16 or the sound pressure level detected by the microphone 18. The stick-slip frequency identifying device 30 can be configured, for example, by a computer attached to the test device 10 or a server computer. Note that the stick-slip frequency identifying device 30 may also be configured by multiple computers. In other words, the functions performed by the stick-slip frequency identifying device 30 described below may be realized by the cooperation of multiple computers.

[0022] The communication interface 32 is configured by, for example, a network interface card (NIC) or various communication connectors. The communication interface 32 performs the function of communicating with other devices including the acceleration sensor 16 and the microphone 18 via a communication line. For example, the communication interface 32 receives a detection signal (vibration level of the test piece S) from the acceleration sensor 16 and a detection signal (sound pressure level) from the microphone 18. The communication interface 32 also transmits the processing results of the stick-slip frequency identification process to other devices.

[0023] The input interface 34 is configured by, for example, a mouse, a keyboard, etc. The input interface 34 is used when a user of the stick-slip frequency identifying device 30 inputs various commands.

[0024] The display 36 is configured by, for example, a liquid crystal panel, an organic EL panel, etc. Various screens are displayed on the display 36. For example, the display 36 displays the processing results of the stick-slip frequency identification processing, etc.

[0025] The memory 38 is configured to include, for example, a hard disk drive (HDD), a solid state drive (SSD), an embedded multi media card (eMMC), a read only memory (ROM), or a random access memory (RAM). The memory 38 stores a stick-slip frequency identification program for executing a stick-slip frequency identification process for the test piece S. The stick-slip frequency identification program can be stored in a computer-readable non-transitory storage medium such as a universal serial bus (USB) memory or a compact disc (CD)-ROM. The stick-slip frequency identifying device 30 can execute the stick-slip frequency identification program by reading the storage medium in which the stick-slip frequency identification program is stored.

[0026] 2, the memory 38 stores vibration data 40 and sound data 42. The vibration data 40 and sound data 42 will be described later together with the processing of the processor 44 (particularly the data acquisition unit 46).

[0027] The processor 44 is configured to include, for example, at least one of a CPU (Central Processing Unit) and a dedicated processing device (for example, a GPU (Graphics Processing Unit), ASIC (Application Specific Integrated Circuit), FPGA (Field-Programmable Gate Array), or programmable logic device). The processor 44 may not be configured by a single processing device, but may be configured by the cooperation of multiple processing devices located in physically separate locations. As shown in FIG. 2 , the processor 44 fulfills the functions of a data acquisition unit 46, a frequency identification unit 48, and a coherence acquisition unit 50 in accordance with a stick-slip frequency identification program stored in the memory 38 or a storage medium. Below, the details of the processing contents of the data acquisition unit 46, the frequency identification unit 48, and the coherence acquisition unit 50, as well as the details of the stick-slip frequency identification process, will be described.

[0028] The data acquisition unit 46 performs an FFT (Fast Fourier Transform) on the vibration level of the test piece S detected by the acceleration sensor 16, thereby dividing the vibration level of the test piece S detected by the acceleration sensor 16 into vibration frequency components corresponding to each vibration frequency. As described above, the acceleration sensor 16 continuously detects the vibration level of the test piece S. Therefore, the data acquisition unit 46 performs an FFT on the vibration levels sequentially detected by the acceleration sensor 16 to acquire vibration data 40 indicating the time change of the vibration frequency components for each vibration frequency of the test piece S. In other words, the vibration data 40 is data indicating the time change of the vibration frequency components for each vibration frequency of the test piece S when the test piece S is pressed against the contact surface 12 and moved relative to the contact surface 12 in the planar direction of the contact surface 12. In this way, the data acquisition unit 46 corresponds to a vibration data acquisition unit. The data acquisition unit 46 stores the acquired vibration data 40 in the memory 38.

[0029] A first example of the vibration data 40 is shown in Fig. 3. In Fig. 3, the vibration data 40 is shown as a heat map, with the horizontal axis representing time, the vertical axis representing vibration frequency, and the concentration representing the vibration frequency component (vibration level at each vibration frequency). The vibration data 40 shown in Fig. 3 is data based on the vibration level acquired by the acceleration sensor 16a, i.e., data based on the vibration level in the X-axis direction on the front side in the movement direction of the test piece S. In this embodiment, since multiple acceleration sensors 16 are provided, the data acquisition unit 46 may acquire multiple pieces of vibration data 40 corresponding to each position and vibration direction of the test piece S based on the vibration levels acquired by each acceleration sensor 16.

[0030] The data acquisition unit 46 also performs an FFT on the sound pressure level detected by the microphone 18 to divide the sound pressure level detected by the microphone 18 into sound frequency components corresponding to each sound frequency. As described above, the microphone 18 continuously detects the sound pressure level. Therefore, the data acquisition unit 46 performs an FFT on the sound pressure levels sequentially detected by the microphone 18 to acquire acoustic data 42 indicating the time change in the acoustic frequency components corresponding to each sound frequency of the sound emitted by the test piece S. In other words, the acoustic data 42 is data indicating the time change in the acoustic frequency components corresponding to each sound frequency of the sound generated when the test piece S is pressed against the contact surface 12 and moved relative to the contact surface 12 in the planar direction of the contact surface 12. In this way, the data acquisition unit 46 corresponds to an acoustic data acquisition unit. The data acquisition unit 46 stores the acquired acoustic data 42 in the memory 38.

[0031] A first example of the acoustic data 42 is shown in Fig. 4. In Fig. 4, the acoustic data 42 is shown as a heat map, with the horizontal axis representing time, the vertical axis representing acoustic frequency, and the concentration representing the acoustic frequency component (sound pressure level at each acoustic frequency).

[0032] The frequency identifying unit 48 identifies the stick-slip frequency between the test piece S and the contact surface 12 based on the vibration data 40. Specifically, the frequency identifying unit 48 identifies, as the stick-slip frequency, a vibration frequency in the vibration data 40 that has a relatively large vibration frequency component. Preferably, the frequency identifying unit 48 identifies, as the stick-slip frequency, a vibration frequency in the vibration data 40 that maintains a relatively large vibration frequency component for a predetermined time.

[0033] 3, the vibration frequency components are relatively large for about one second or more in the vicinity of 2 [kHz], 4 [kHz], and 6 [kHz]. Therefore, the frequency identifying unit 48 can identify 2 [kHz], 4 [kHz], 6 [kHz], and 8 [kHz] as stick-slip frequencies.

[0034] When the stick-slip phenomenon occurs, (at least a part of) the test piece S vibrates at the stick-slip frequency. Therefore, the frequency identifying unit 48 can identify, in the vibration data 40, a vibration frequency having a relatively large vibration frequency component as the stick-slip frequency.

[0035] In this embodiment, the frequency identifying unit 48 identifies the stick-slip frequency based on the vibration data 40 obtained from one acceleration sensor 16, but the frequency identifying unit 48 may be configured to identify the stick-slip frequency based on a plurality of pieces of vibration data 40 obtained from a plurality of acceleration sensors 16. For example, a representative value (such as the mode or average value) of a plurality of stick-slip frequencies identified from the respective pieces of vibration data 40 may be set as the stick-slip frequency between the test piece S and the contact surface 12.

[0036] The frequency identifying unit 48 can also identify the stick-slip frequency between the test piece S and the contact surface 12 based on the acoustic data 42 instead of the vibration data 40. Specifically, the frequency identifying unit 48 identifies an acoustic frequency in the acoustic data 42 that has a relatively large acoustic frequency component as the stick-slip frequency. Preferably, the frequency identifying unit 48 identifies an acoustic frequency in the acoustic data 42 that maintains a relatively large acoustic frequency component for a predetermined time as the stick-slip frequency.

[0037] 4, the acoustic frequency components are relatively large for approximately one second or more in the vicinity of 2 kHz, 4 kHz, and 6 kHz. Therefore, the frequency identifying unit 48 can identify 2 kHz, 4 kHz, 6 kHz, and 8 kHz as stick-slip frequencies.

[0038] When the stick-slip phenomenon occurs, the test piece S vibrates at the stick-slip frequency, generating a sound (noise) whose main component is the stick-slip frequency. Therefore, the frequency identifying unit 48 can identify, in the acoustic data 42, an acoustic frequency having a relatively large acoustic frequency component as the stick-slip frequency.

[0039] The information indicating the stick-slip frequency identified by the frequency identification unit 48 is provided to, for example, a tire designer. For example, the processor 44 transmits the information indicating the stick-slip frequency from the communication interface 32 to a computer used by the tire designer. Alternatively, the processor 44 displays the information indicating the stick-slip frequency on the display 36. By referring to the information indicating the stick-slip frequency, the tire designer can design the composition and pattern shape of the tire so as to suppress the occurrence of the stick-slip phenomenon.

[0040] The coherence acquisition unit 50 acquires coherence data indicating a correlation value between a vibration frequency component and an acoustic frequency component for each frequency based on the vibration data 40 and the acoustic data 42. In this embodiment, the coherence acquisition unit 50 acquires the coherence data C by the following equation (1): xy Calculate (f).

number

[0041] Fig. 5 is a diagram showing an example of coherence data acquired based on the vibration data 40 shown in Fig. 3 and the acoustic data 42 shown in Fig. 4. The frequency identification unit 48 may identify, in the coherence data, frequencies at which the correlation value is relatively large as stick-slip frequencies. For example, in the example of Fig. 5, the correlation value is relatively large in the vicinity of 2 [kHz], 4 [kHz], 6 [kHz], and 8 [kHz]. Therefore, the frequency identification unit 48 can identify 2 [kHz], 4 [kHz], 6 [kHz], and 8 [kHz] as stick-slip frequencies.

[0042] In the vibration data 40, there may be cases where the vibration frequency component becomes relatively high due to factors other than the stick-slip phenomenon. Therefore, when a stick-slip frequency is identified based solely on the vibration data 40, there is a possibility that a frequency other than the true stick-slip frequency will be identified as the stick-slip frequency. Also, in the sound data 42, there may be cases where the acoustic frequency component becomes relatively high due to factors other than the stick-slip phenomenon. Therefore, when a stick-slip frequency is identified based solely on the sound data 42, there is a possibility that a frequency other than the true stick-slip frequency will be identified as the stick-slip frequency.

[0043] Here, it can be said that a vibration frequency or acoustic frequency where the vibration frequency component is relatively high in the vibration data 40 and the acoustic frequency component is relatively high in the acoustic data 42 is highly likely to be a vibration frequency or acoustic frequency that has been increased due to the stick-slip phenomenon. In other words, it can be said that the vibration frequency or acoustic frequency is highly likely to be a true stick-slip frequency. Therefore, by having the frequency identifying unit 48 identify the stick-slip frequency based on the coherence data, it is possible to identify the stick-slip frequency with high accuracy.

[0044] Furthermore, the coherence acquiring unit 50 may acquire wavelet coherence data indicating a time change in the correlation value between the vibration frequency component and the sound frequency component for each frequency, based on the vibration data 40 and the sound data 42. Specifically, the coherence acquiring unit 50 acquires the wavelet coherence data by calculating the coherence data at each time point using the above formula (1) based on the vibration data 40 and the sound data 42.

[0045] Fig. 6 shows a second example of vibration data 40, Fig. 7 shows a second example of acoustic data 42, and Fig. 8 shows wavelet coherence data acquired based on the vibration data 40 shown in Fig. 6 and the acoustic data 42 shown in Fig. 7. In Fig. 8, the wavelet coherence data is shown in a heat map, with the horizontal axis representing time, the vertical axis representing frequency, and the concentration representing the correlation value between the vibration frequency component and the acoustic frequency component.

[0046] The frequency identification unit 48 may determine a calculation target region 60, which is a region in the wavelet coherence data where the correlation value is relatively large, and identify the stick-slip frequency based on the correlation value included in the calculation target region 60. Specifically, the frequency identification unit 48 identifies, in the wavelet coherence data, a region of a predetermined area or more where the correlation value is a predetermined value (e.g., 0.9) or more, as the calculation target region 60. Then, the frequency identification unit 48 performs an FFT on the data included in the calculation target region 60, and identifies the frequency at which the value of the correlation value spectrum obtained by the FFT reaches a peak as the stick-slip frequency.

[0047] As in the vibration data 40 shown in FIG. 6 or the acoustic data 42 shown in FIG. 7, there are cases where the vibration frequency (or acoustic frequency) at which the vibration frequency component (or acoustic frequency component) becomes relatively large is not stable in the time axis direction. In such cases, the identified stick-slip frequency may vary depending on the timing of coherence acquisition. Therefore, after the coherence acquisition unit 50 acquires wavelet coherence data, the frequency identification unit 48 identifies a calculation target region 60 in which the correlation value is relatively high in the two-dimensional space of frequency and time of the wavelet coherence data, and identifies the frequency in the calculation target region 60 where the correlation value peaks as the stick-slip frequency. This makes it possible to identify the stick-slip frequency with higher accuracy. Furthermore, because the peak correlation value is detected from the calculation target region 60, which is a partial region of the wavelet coherence data, the amount of calculation can be reduced at least compared to detecting the peak correlation value from the entire wavelet coherence data.

[0048] The above is an overview of the stick-slip frequency identifying device 30 according to this embodiment. Below, the flow of processing by the stick-slip frequency identifying device 30 (particularly the processor 44) will be explained according to the flowchart shown in FIG.

[0049] In step S10, the data acquisition unit 46 acquires vibration data 40 (see FIG. 3 or FIG. 6) by performing an FFT on the vibration level of the test piece S detected by the acceleration sensor 16. The data acquisition unit 46 also acquires acoustic data 42 (see FIG. 4 or FIG. 7) by performing an FFT on the sound pressure level detected by the microphone 18. Step S10 corresponds to a vibration data acquisition step or an acoustic data acquisition step.

[0050] In step S12, the coherence acquisition unit 50 acquires coherence data (see FIG. 5) indicating the relationship between the correlation value between the vibration frequency component and the acoustic frequency component for each frequency, based on the vibration data 40 and acoustic data 42 acquired in step S10. Note that the coherence acquisition unit 50 may acquire wavelet coherence data (see FIG. 8) based on the vibration data 40 and acoustic data 42 acquired in step S10. Step S12 corresponds to a coherence data acquisition step.

[0051] In step S14, the frequency identifying unit 48 identifies a vibration frequency having a relatively large vibration frequency component in the vibration data 40 acquired in step S10 as the stick-slip frequency between the test piece S and the contact surface 12. Alternatively, the frequency identifying unit 48 identifies an acoustic frequency having a relatively large acoustic frequency component in the acoustic data 42 acquired in step S10 as the stick-slip frequency between the test piece S and the contact surface 12. The frequency identifying unit 48 may also identify a frequency having a relatively large correlation value in the coherence data acquired in step S12 as the stick-slip frequency. The frequency identifying unit 48 may also determine a calculation target region 60, which is a region having a relatively large correlation value in the wavelet coherence data acquired in step S12, and identify the stick-slip frequency based on the correlation value included in the calculation target region 60. Step S14 corresponds to a frequency identifying step.

[0052] Although the embodiment of the present invention has been described above, the present invention is not limited to the above embodiment, and various modifications are possible without departing from the spirit of the present invention. [Explanation of symbols]
