[0153] Step S930: Acquire the profile evolution simulation data within the wheel-rail service period to predict the wheel-rail profile, and further map the wheel-rail profile into a discrete voxel distance field.

[0154] Step S940: Obtain the wear amount at each position of the wheel-rail profile, and construct a zero isosurface velocity field value based on the wear amount, and further expand the evolution velocity according to the voxel vertex gradient value to construct an evolution velocity field function of the wheel-rail simulation model.

[0155] Specifically, the surface profile data points of the in-service wheel and rail are obtained through the vehicle profile detection system and the track profile measurement system, and then the iterative closest point method is used to achieve wheel / rail profile matching in different coordinate systems. Then, the wheel / rail profile in the unified coordinate system is mapped to a discrete voxelized model to construct a wheel-rail evolution velocity field, and then the overall evolution idea shown in the first embodiment is used to achieve continuous four-dimensional evolution modeling of the in-service wheel and rail.

[0156] In the tenth embodiment of a method for modeling a continuous four-dimensional evolution of a wheel-rail profile throughout its life cycle proposed by the present invention, based on the first embodiment, step S160 comprises the following steps:

[0157] Step S1010: superimposing the distance field of the standard wheel-rail discrete voxelized model with the evolution velocity field of the wheel-rail measured model and the evolution velocity field of the wheel-rail simulation model.

[0158] Step S1020: The wheel / rail profile of the evolved service wheel / rail discrete voxelized model is updated using the level set method. After a preset number (e.g., 5) of evolution steps, the value of the distance field of the standard wheel / rail discrete voxelized model is recalculated and a narrow band is established to ensure the distance attribute of the voxel vertices during the wheel / rail evolution process and improve the level set update efficiency.

[0159] The step S1020 of updating the wheel-rail profile of the evolving service wheel-rail discrete voxel model using the level set method comprises the following steps:

[0160] Step S1030: Using the level set method to perform continuous four-dimensional evolution of the standard wheel-rail discrete voxel model, the evolution formula is:

[0161] φ(p(x,y,z),t)=0,

[0162] In the formula, in order to clearly express the voxel model evolution process, the evolution formula is obtained by using the chain differential rule:

[0163]

[0164] It can be seen that by defining the distance field and velocity field required for wheel-rail evolution, a continuous four-dimensional wheel-rail evolution model can be constructed.

[0165] Step S1040: In order to maintain the distance field properties of the voxel vertices of the level set evolution, the distance field of the standard wheel-rail discrete voxel model is initialized by solving the steady-state solution of the partial differential equation, wherein the initialization operation formula is:

[0166]

[0167] Step S1050: The wheel-rail evolution process is actually the evolution of the zero level set in the level set equation. Therefore, the continuous four-dimensional evolution of the wheel-rail profile of the service wheel-rail discrete voxelization model can be achieved by determining the voxel distance field value near the zero level set.

[0168] The step S1020 of recalculating the distance field value of the standard wheel-rail discrete voxelized model after a preset number of evolution steps and establishing a narrowband comprises the following steps:

[0169] Specifically, in order to improve the efficiency of wheel-rail updating by level set, the narrowband level set method is used to realize the evolution of wheel-rail profile. The specific steps of narrowband construction are as follows:

[0170] Step S1060: Taking the zero level set surface as the center, determine a narrowband local region with a width of 2δ around the zero level set surface.

[0171] Specifically, the widths of the inner and outer sides are δ respectively.

[0172] Step S1070: Mark the voxel vertices in the narrowband area as active points, and the remaining voxel vertices as inactive points. In the process of continuous four-dimensional evolution of the wheel-rail profile of the in-service wheel-rail discrete voxelized model, only the level set function values ​​of the active points are iteratively updated.

[0173] In the eleventh embodiment of the method for modeling the continuous four-dimensional evolution of wheel-rail profile throughout its life cycle proposed by the present invention, based on the second embodiment, step S210 comprises the following steps:

[0174] Step S1110: The discrete voxelized model of the in-service wheel-rail in the continuous four-dimensional evolution process is reconstructed using the marching cubes algorithm, and the distance field and the velocity field in the evolution process are visualized using cloud maps and vector arrows, respectively, to verify whether the continuous four-dimensional evolution process of the discrete voxelized model of the in-service wheel-rail evolves in the expected manner.

[0175] Step S1120: Based on the distance field properties of the in-service wheel-rail discrete voxelized model during the continuous four-dimensional evolution process, the process of continuous four-dimensional evolution of the wheel-rail profile of the in-service wheel-rail discrete voxelized model is corrected.

[0176] Step S1130: using a cloud diagram to check whether the final result of the continuous four-dimensional evolution of the wheel-rail profile of the discrete voxelized model of the in-service wheel-rail meets the expected evolution accuracy requirement.

[0177] The overall flow chart of the present invention is shown in the first embodiment and the second embodiment. The main idea is: first, the standard wheel-rail geometric surface model is discretized into voxels to construct a voxelized model with distance field attributes, then the measured wheel-rail service profile data / multi-body dynamics physical simulation data are mapped to the distance field, and the velocity field operator required for level set tracking of wheel-rail evolution is constructed, and then the level set is updated by superimposing the distance field and the velocity field. After a certain number of evolutions, the voxel model distance field is recalculated and a narrow band is constructed, and then the wheel-rail profile is continuously evolved in four dimensions. Finally, the geometric surface of the voxel model is reconstructed by the marching cube algorithm to achieve visual expression of the service wheel-rail model.
