Background Technology

[0002] Externally bonded FRP (fiberglass reinforced polymer) reinforcement is widely used in reinforced concrete structure reinforcement projects due to its advantages such as applicability to corrosive environments, lightweight material, and suitability for reinforcing complex cross-section structures. Numerous experimental studies have shown that premature delamination at the FRP-concrete interface is a key factor leading to failure in externally bonded FRP-reinforced structures. Therefore, studying the interfacial bond performance between FRP and concrete and establishing a bond-slip model characterizing interfacial delamination failure behavior is of significant engineering importance for improving the reliability of structural reinforcement. Furthermore, it can help to automatically and quickly establish safe and reliable design and calculation methods for FRP-reinforced components. Summary of the Invention

[0042] Its detailed process is as follows Figure 1 As shown. Detailed steps are as follows:

[0043] Step 1: Use the finite element method software LS-DYNA to model the bond behavior between the FRP sheet and concrete to collect strain data of the FRP sheet. Through simulation, data corresponding to the strain at each position every two seconds was obtained within a certain period after loading. The strain data acquisition method is as follows: Figure 2 As shown in the figure. Pn represents the strain data ε at each point selected at equal intervals on the FRP sheet under the action of an external load F, which is collected every two seconds.

[0044] The strain data ε obtained at each location over time is compared with the elastic modulus E of the concrete. s The compressive strength f of concrete c FRP thickness t f Ultimate strength f of FRP s The yield strength f of FRP d this Five kinds The parameters are combined into multiple datasets according to their different positions. The format and content of the datasets are as follows: Figure 3 As shown. In each dataset, the first 70% of the data in time series is used as the training set, and the last 30% is used as the test set.

[0045] Step 2: Build a machine learning prediction model based on WGAN. WGAN was proposed to solve the problem of unstable training in GANs, eliminating the need for careful balancing of the training levels of the generator and discriminator. The Wasserstein distance is WGAN's solution to this problem. The Wasserstein distance is defined as follows:

[0046]

[0047] In equation (1), W(P) r ,P g ) represents the probability distribution P r With P gThe distance between them, where x and y represent two random variables of the same dimension, ∏(P r ,P g ) represents P r and P g All possible joint probability distributions, γ represents the probability distribution in ∏(P r ,P g For any joint probability distribution in E, (x,y)~γ [‖xy‖] represents P r and P g Expected value of distance, This indicates the lower bound that the expected value can take.

[0048] When building the WGAN model, an LSTM network was chosen as the generator and a CNN as the discriminator. The structure of the WGAN model is as follows: Figure 4 As shown, a sliding window approach is used in the generator for prediction, where every 30 time series data points can predict the strain data for the next 3 time series. The fake dataset, consisting of the strain data from the last 3 time series generated by the generator and the strain data from the first 30 real time series, along with the real strain data from the 33 time series, is simultaneously fed to the discriminator for authentication. The discriminator uses the Leaky ReLU activation function, the expression of which is as follows:

[0049]

[0050] In equation (2), a is a number close to 0. In this invention, a = 0.01. This represents the input feature vector, which is the strain data with 33 time series passed to the discriminator.

[0051] The WGAN of this invention uses gradient penalty to enforce Lipschitz constraints. The discriminator loss function is defined as follows:

[0052]

[0053] In equation (3), m represents the sample size, and x i y represents the input data of the generator. i G(x) represents the target value of the real dataset. i () represents the generated data value of the generator, D represents the discrimination calculation of the discriminator on the data, and λ is a penalty coefficient with a value of 10. This indicates a penalty.

[0054] The generator loss function is defined as follows:

[0055]

[0056] Step 3: Train the model and obtain the predicted strain results. Train the corresponding model using the training set for each location, and then obtain the strain value at each location at the corresponding time using the test set. Simultaneously, the root mean square error (RMSE) is used to evaluate the training and testing results of the network. The RMSE is defined as:

[0057]

[0058] In equation (5), x i y represents the model's predicted value. i This represents the true value of the data, and n represents the number of samples.

[0059] Step 5: Obtain the bond-slip model. Organizing the strain values ​​obtained in Step 3 yields the strain values ​​at various locations on the FRP sheet at a given moment. Substituting these values ​​into the formula for FRP strain distribution with location, we obtain the parameters α, β, and d0, defined as follows:

[0060]

[0061] In equation (6), d represents the distance from the observation point to the loading end, and ε(d) represents the strain value at the observation point. Substituting the values ​​of α, β, and d0 into the definitions of slip as a function of position s(d), bond stress as a function of position τ(d), and bond stress as a function of slip τ(s), respectively, we can obtain the bond-slip model between the FRP sheet and the concrete interface, whose definitions are as follows:

[0062]

[0063]

[0064]

[0065] In equations (7)(8)(9), E f t represents the elastic modulus of FRP sheet. f Let represent the thickness of the FRP sheet, s represent the slippage of the FRP sheet, and τ represent the bond stress between the FRP sheet and the concrete. The corresponding relationship is shown in Figure 5(c), which includes the bond-slip curve most commonly used to analyze the bonding performance of the FRP-concrete interface. The calculations and result acquisition in step five are also automatically performed by code.
