Description
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of TBM rock breaking efficiency prediction, and particularly relates to a TBM rock breaking efficiency intelligent prediction method based on rock residue size. BACKGROUND
[0002] With the continuous development of underground space, the excavation difficulty and mechanization level of tunnel engineering are constantly improving, and the full-face tunnel boring machine (TBM) has been rapidly developed and applied. Compared with the traditional drilling and blasting method, the TBM has the following advantages: ① ensuring the safety of construction; ② the tunneling speed is 3-10 times that of the traditional drilling and blasting method; ③ the tunnel forming effect is good, realizing the integration of assembly; ④ the noise disturbance is small, and the influence on the surrounding environment is small. At present, the TBM has been widely applied in the fields of transportation, municipal, hydraulic, and mining engineering. The TBM mainly relies on the interaction between the cutter installed on the cutter head of the tunneling machine and the rock to achieve rock breaking. The cutter is pressed against the tunnel face under the action of the normal thrust and rolling force, and rock breaking is generated. The accurate prediction of the rock breaking efficiency can effectively provide a reference for the setting of the TBM tunneling parameters.
[0003] Most of the existing researches are about predicting the TBM tunneling performance and rolling wear through artificial intelligence methods, and the research content of intelligent prediction of rock breaking efficiency is still very few. Therefore, it is of great significance to propose an intelligent model that can accurately predict the TBM rock breaking efficiency to realize the rapid tunneling and efficient rock breaking of the TBM. SUMMARY
[0004] The present application relates to the technical field of TBM rock breaking efficiency prediction, and particularly relates to a TBM rock breaking efficiency intelligent prediction method based on rock residue size.
[0005] The technical solution for achieving the present application is as follows:
[0006] A TBM rock breaking efficiency intelligent prediction method based on rock residue size, comprising the following steps:
[0007] Step 1: installing a rock residue image shooting device on the TBM residue belt to real-time collect rock residue image information in the TBM tunneling process;
[0008] Step 2: automatically identifying the obtained rock residue image information to obtain the shape and geometric features of the rock residue;
[0009] Step 3: collecting the on-site tunneling parameters of the TBM, the geometric information features of the rock residue, and the rock breaking efficiency data, and forming a sample data set;
[0010] Step 4: Establish a particle swarm algorithm optimized gradient boosting regression tree model using a sample data set to realize intelligent prediction of TBM rock breaking efficiency.
[0011] Further, the slag image shooting device of step S1 includes an industrial camera and an LED fill light. The industrial camera is a Canon N10-W02 model with 1920x1080 effective pixels and a focal length of 4.3mm. It is arranged on both sides and above the TBM slag belt to shoot real-time photo information of the slag. The LED fill light is a nijia200 professional fill light with a maximum illumination of 70400 lux / 0.5m and a maximum light brightness of 5800 lm, which is used to compensate the light of the slag on the slag belt. The data storage center can transmit the slag images obtained by shooting into the database in real time, and then transmit the data of the database into the data storage center through wireless network.
[0012] Further, the slag image processing of step S2 includes converting the collected color image of the slag into a grayscale image, i.e. when the grayscale value is greater than the threshold value set in advance, it is 1, and less than the threshold value, it is 0. The connected region detection algorithm is used to judge the connected region, which is the position of the slag. According to the pixel points of the connected region, the geometric characteristics of the slag can be calculated.
[0013] Further, the tunneling parameter indicators recorded on site by the TBM of step 3 include total thrust, cutterhead torque and cutterhead speed. The geometric information characteristics of the slag include the minor axis, major axis and intermediate axis of the slag. The rock breaking efficiency is represented by specific energy.
[0014] Further, the step 4 of establishing a particle swarm algorithm optimized gradient boosting regression tree model using a sample data set to realize intelligent prediction of TBM rock breaking efficiency specifically includes:
[0015] Step 4.1: Normalize the collected sample data set and divide it into training set and test set.
[0016] Step 4.2: Use the training set to build a GBRT model and initialize the parameters of GBRT, including the number of weak learners, maximum tree depth and learning rate.
[0017] Step 4.3: Initialize the parameters of particle swarm algorithm, use particle swarm optimization algorithm to optimize the parameters of GBRT, and get the optimal values of the number of weak learners, maximum tree depth and learning rate.
[0018] Step 4.4: Substitute the optimal parameters into the GBRT model to get the trained PSO-GBRT prediction model. Put the test set sample data into the model to get the specific energy prediction value. Use R2 and RMSE indicators to test the prediction performance of the model.
[0019] Further, the data normalization calculation formula described in step 4.1 is as follows:
[0020]
[0021] In the formula, X norm is the normalized value of the data, X is the original value of each parameter in the sample, X max and X min are the maximum and minimum values of each parameter in the sample, respectively.
[0022] Further, the specific steps of using the particle swarm optimization algorithm to optimize the GBRT described in step 4.3 are as follows:
[0023] Step 4.3.1 initializes the population size of the particle swarm optimization algorithm to 20, the maximum number of iterations to 200, the learning factors c1 and c2 to 1.5, determines the model hyperparameters weak learner number, maximum tree depth, and initial value of learning rate, the weak learner number is in the range of 1 to 1000, the maximum tree depth is in the range of 1 to 5, and the learning rate is in the range of 0.01 to 1, and the initial values of these parameters are randomly obtained.
[0024] Step 4.3.2 calculates the fitness value of the particle swarm individual, the fitness value is calculated by the mean square error between the sample predicted value and the sample true value, and the best fitness value in all particles is set as the global extreme value.
[0025] Step 4.3.3 updates the speed and position of the particle and compares it with the extreme value of the previous moment, and updates the extreme value.
[0026] Step 4.3.4 judges whether the maximum number of iterations or the minimum error condition is reached. If not, return to step 4.3.2, if the end condition is met, stop iteration, and output the optimal solution of the parameter weak learner number, maximum tree depth, and learning rate.
[0027] Compared with the prior art, the present application has the following beneficial effects:
[0028] The present application proposes a TBM rock breaking efficiency prediction method based on rock size, while the existing research mainly focuses on using machine learning methods to predict TBM excavation rate and rolling wear, and lacks intelligent prediction of rock breaking efficiency. In addition to using the conventional gradient boosting regression tree model, the present application also combines the particle swarm optimization algorithm to find the best parameters of the gradient boosting regression tree model, thereby improving the prediction accuracy of the model, and the accurate prediction of rock breaking efficiency can effectively provide reference for TBM excavation parameter setting and efficient rock breaking.
