Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of nondestructive testing technology, and more specifically, to an online method and system for detecting the plastic strain ratio of cold-rolled thin strip steel. Background Technology

[0002] The plastic strain ratio, or R-value, is the most important parameter for evaluating the deep-drawing performance of thin metal sheets. When a strip specimen is subjected to a tensile test machine and subjected to 20% tensile deformation, the ratio of the strain in the width direction to the strain in the thickness direction is called the plastic strain ratio, also known as the Lankford value or r-value. It reflects the ability of a thin metal sheet to resist thinning or thickening when subjected to tensile or compressive forces in a certain plane. Currently, steel companies mainly use the offline cutting test method to test the plastic strain ratio (R) of cold-rolled thin strip steel. This method is widely used. It involves cutting a sample from a specific location on a coil of strip, such as the beginning or end, and then sending it to the laboratory for offline testing to obtain the plastic strain ratio of the sample, from which the yield elongation of the coil of strip can be inferred.

[0003] The ratio of the strain in the width direction to the strain in the thickness direction when a thin plate specimen is stretched is denoted by R: R = ε w / ε t In the formula ε w =lnb / b0 is the strain in the width direction; ε t =lnt / t0 is the strain in the thickness direction. It is also commonly referred to as the thickness anisotropy coefficient. The r value can be determined by measuring the width and length dimensions within the gauge length of the specimen before and after tensile deformation and calculating it using the following formula:

[0004]

[0005] In the formula: l0, b0 are the length and width dimensions of the specimen within the gauge length before deformation; if the specimen's orientation in the plate is different, please refer to the appendix of the instruction manual for details. Figure 1 The thickness anisotropy coefficients obtained from the experiments also differ. This is because the texture and mechanical properties of the sheet metal are not uniform in all directions. Here, R90 is selected as the main research object. The advantages of the offline sample cutting test method are its simplicity, direct results, and high accuracy. However, this method has the following drawbacks: First, the data has a large time lag, offering limited assistance to the production process, and online control is out of the question. Second, the data is incomplete, only reflecting the values ​​of the head and tail of a single coil of strip. Third, there is waste in shearing. During production, if the unit stops or operates at low speed for some reason, in order to maintain the empirical judgment that "if the head and tail are qualified, then the middle is also qualified," a section of "suspected unqualified" strip steel is usually cut off. There is no standard for how much to cut, so as much as possible is cut, which obviously leads to waste. Fourth, it requires 24 / 7 human intervention at the machine, resulting in high labor intensity and high labor costs. Summary of the Invention

[0006] The purpose of this invention is to provide an online detection method for the plastic strain ratio of cold-rolled thin strip steel. By manually measuring the input parameters of the cold-rolled thin strip steel online, multiple electromagnetic signals are acquired in real time. At the same time, the electromagnetic signals are expanded, the actual fluctuation values ​​of the spacing affecting the electromagnetic parameters are corrected, and the influence of the strip thickness is considered.

[0022] According to the online detection method for plastic strain ratio of cold-rolled thin strip steel according to the above-mentioned aspects of the present invention, when the actual fluctuation value Gap between the strip steel and the probe satisfies 4mm≤Gap≤6mm, the actual fluctuation value Gap is introduced into the artificial neural network algorithm model. When Gap>6mm or Gap<4mm, the detection system is in an abnormal state and the detection is invalid.

[0050] Figure 2The flowchart of the online detection method for the plastic strain ratio of cold-rolled thin strip steel of the present invention is shown; the online detection method for the plastic strain ratio of cold-rolled thin strip steel includes the following steps as detailed below. Figure 2 As shown:

[0051] S1. Establish an artificial neural network algorithm model for cold-rolled thin strip steel;

[0052] Figure 3 The BP neural network topology of this invention is shown;

[0053] S1 specifically includes the following steps:

[0054] S11. The BP multilayer feedforward neural network is selected as the artificial neural network algorithm model for cold-rolled thin strip steel;

[0055] S12. Select the parameters for the BP multilayer feedforward neural network.

[0056] The Back Propagation (BP) neural network algorithm is a multi-layer feedforward network that learns and trains using an error backpropagation algorithm. It was first proposed by scientists such as Rumelhart and McCelland in 1986. Its network topology is as follows: Figure 3 As shown, the network structure consists of three parts: an input layer, hidden layers, and an output layer. There is only one input layer and one output layer, while there can be multiple hidden layers. Each layer is composed of several neurons. Neurons within a layer are not connected to each other, but neurons between layers are fully connected. That is, any neuron in the input layer is connected to all nodes in the hidden layer, and any neuron in the hidden layer is connected to all nodes in the output layer.

[0057] The design of a complete BP neural network model needs to consider factors such as the design of the network structure and the selection and setting of relevant parameters.

[0058] (1) Network Structure Design: Since there is only one input layer and one output layer, and the number of neurons in each layer is determined by the specific problem being solved and the data representation method, the key to network structure design lies in the design of the hidden layer structure, including the selection of the number of layers and nodes. For the design of the number of hidden layers, it is common practice to first consider setting up one hidden layer, and only when one hidden layer cannot meet the relevant performance requirements should the number of hidden layers be increased. Experimental studies show that when using two hidden layers, if the number of neurons in the first hidden layer is greater than that in the second hidden layer, the performance of the BP network will be improved to some extent. However, for some practical problems, the number of neurons required by using two hidden layers may be less than that of a single hidden layer. The more hidden layers there are, the longer the training time of the BP network will be, and the greater the local minimum error will be, meaning the probability of the network getting trapped in a local optimum will increase. Therefore, increasing the number of hidden layers should only be considered when increasing the number of hidden layer nodes cannot significantly improve network performance.

[0059] Currently, there is a lack of mature theoretical guidance for determining the number of neurons in the hidden layer; it is generally determined based on experience. The following empirical estimation formulas can be used as a reference:

[0060]

[0061] m = log2 n

[0062]

[0063] Where m represents the number of hidden layer neurons, n represents the number of input layer nodes, l represents the number of output layer nodes, and a is a constant between [1, 10].

[0064] The selection of the number of hidden layer neurons is crucial to the success of network design. If the number of hidden layer nodes is too small, the network's learning ability from training samples will be poor, and the learned patterns will not be sufficient to reflect the patterns of the entire sample set, thus increasing the prediction error of test samples. However, if the number of hidden layer nodes is too large, it will greatly prolong the training time, and the network may also learn and record irregular content (such as noise) in the samples, resulting in "overfitting" and reducing the network's generalization ability.

[0065] (2) Selection of parameters: The parameters of the BP neural network include the transfer function, learning algorithm, number of iterations, learning rate, training target error, initial weights and threshold.

[0066] The transfer function is set according to the network requirements and the relationship between input and output. The commonly used transfer function is the S(sigmoid) type function, and its function expression is f(x) = 1 / (1+e^(-x)). -xThe sigmoid function possesses nonlinear and everywhere differentiable characteristics, and offers good gain control over the signal: when |x| is small, f(x) has a large gain; when |x| is large, f(x) has a small gain, which can prevent the network from entering a saturation state to a certain extent. Therefore, this function has been widely used. In addition, other common transfer functions include the logarithmic sigmoid transfer function (logsid), the hyperbolic tangent sigmoid transfer function (tangsig), and linear transfer functions. This invention selects the most commonly used sigmoid function.

[0067] In an embodiment of the present invention, the BP multilayer feedforward neural network in step S11 has a three-layer structure, including an input layer, a hidden layer, and an output layer. The input layer has a total of 44 parameters, including 41 electromagnetic parameters, one parameter each for the distance between the probe and the lower surface of the strip, and one parameter for the strip thickness. The hidden layer has 8-12 layers, specifically optimized based on data experiments during model training. The output layer has one parameter, namely the baking hardening value. The transfer function between the input layer and the hidden layer uses the Sigmoid function, and the transfer function between the hidden layer and the output layer uses the Purelin function.

[0068] Figure 4 A schematic diagram of the cold-rolled thin strip steel inspection system of the present invention is shown; Figure 5 A schematic diagram of the online working position of the cold-rolled thin strip steel inspection hardware system of the present invention is shown; Figure 6 A schematic diagram of the descending position of the hardware system for detecting cold-rolled thin strip steel of the present invention is shown.

[0069] The specific details of the cold-rolled thin strip steel inspection system of this invention are as follows: Figure 4 As shown, it includes an online detection hardware system, a supporting software system, a mathematical model, and corresponding data interfaces and computer networks. The online detection hardware system is specifically as follows: Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, Figure 3 The strip steel 1 typically runs at a speed of 0-300 m / min. The strip steel's trajectory is stabilized by two idler rollers 2 arranged one behind the other. An electromagnetic detection unit 3, capable of vertical movement and lateral shifting, is positioned between the idler rollers 2. The electromagnetic detection unit 3 is located below the running strip steel, and its vertical movement and lateral shifting are controlled by the control system. The hardware detection system also includes a distance measuring instrument 4, which measures the distance between the electromagnetic detection unit 3 and the lower surface of the strip steel 1 in real time and sends the data to the control computer. A probe lifting device 5 enables the vertical movement of the electromagnetic detection unit 3, and a mechanical limit device 6 ensures a safe distance between the electromagnetic detection unit 3 and the strip steel 1.

[0070] Figure 4The distance 7 between the lower surface of the strip and the probe surface is a key parameter. Due to the vibration of the strip during operation and the influence of external factors such as the inherent plate properties of thin strip, the spacing of the strip fluctuates slightly. It is measured in real time by the distance measuring instrument 4, with a target value of 5mm and an allowable error of ±1mm. This parameter is the actual fluctuation value Gap of the spacing between the strip and the probe, which serves as an input to the BP neural network model.

[0071] S2. Obtain the plastic strain ratio of cold-rolled thin strip steel by artificial methods;

[0072] S2 specifically includes the following steps:

[0073] S21. Input parameters for cold-rolled thin strip steel measured manually online, the input parameters including a set of electromagnetic parameters, the actual fluctuation value of the gap between the strip steel and the probe Gap, the current strip steel thickness, and the current strip steel tension;

[0074] Among them, the electromagnetic parameter group in S21 includes four detection methods and 41 electromagnetic parameters. The four detection methods include tangential magnetic field harmonic analysis, Barkhausen noise, incremental permeability and multi-frequency eddy current. Each detection method outputs a curve signal, and each curve signal is transformed into several electromagnetic parameters for characterization by definition.

[0075] In one specific embodiment, the detection system comprehensively applies four electromagnetic detection methods: tangential magnetic field harmonic analysis, Barkhausen noise, incremental permeability, and multi-frequency eddy current. The result curves of the above four electromagnetic detections are characterized by several quantitative parameters defined below, as shown in Tables 1, 2, 3, and 4:

[0076] Table 1. Tangential harmonic response parameters of the excitation magnetic field (11 items in total, EMi, i=1,...,11)

[0077]

[0078] Table 2 Barkhausen noise detection response parameters (7 items in total, EMi, i = 12, ..., 18)

[0079]

[0080] Table 3 Incremental permeability electromagnetic detection response parameters (7 items in total, EMi, i = 19, ..., 25)

[0081]

[0082] Table 4. Response parameters of multi-frequency eddy current electromagnetic detection (16 items in total, EMi, i = 20, ..., 41)

[0083]

[0084] In summary, the integrated detection system outputs a maximum of 41 electromagnetic parameters. Online prediction of the plastic strain ratio is achieved using a backpropagation (BP) neural network within an artificial neural network (ANN).

[0085] It should be noted that the actual fluctuation value Gap between the strip and the probe in S21 is valid when 4mm≤Gap≤6mm. When Gap is introduced into the artificial neural network algorithm model, the measurement is valid and the detection result can be corrected. When Gap>6mm or Gap<4mm, the detection system is in an abnormal state, the detection conditions are not met, and the detection is invalid.

[0086] S22. Input the above input parameters into the artificial neural network algorithm model to calculate the plastic strain ratio of cold-rolled thin strip steel.

[0087] In a specific embodiment, the basic principle of the BP algorithm is introduced using a BP neural network with one hidden layer as an example. Figure 3 As shown, x = (x0, x1, ..., x n-1 ) is the input vector, x i ,i=(0,1,…,n-1) represents the input quantity of the i-th neuron in the input layer, b j j = (0, 1, ..., l-1) represents the output of the hidden layer neuron node, y k k = (0, 1, ..., m-1) represents the output of the output layer nodes, n, l, and m represent the number of neurons in the input layer, hidden layer, and output layer, respectively, and v ij w represents the weights from the i-th neuron in the input layer to the j-th neuron in the hidden layer. jk Let represent the weights from the j-th node in the hidden layer to the k-th node in the output layer. Then:

[0088] The output of each neuron node in the hidden layer is

[0089]

[0090] The output of each neuron node in the output layer is

[0091]

[0092] Where, θ j φ k f1 and f2 represent the threshold values ​​for the hidden layer node and the output layer node, respectively; f1 and f2 represent the transfer functions for the hidden layer and the output layer, respectively.

[0093] Assume the expected output of the output layer node is O k The total error is...

[0094]

[0095] The purpose of error backpropagation is to continuously reduce the total error by adjusting the weights. Therefore, the weights should be adjusted along the negative gradient of the error, that is, the change in the weights should satisfy the following equation:

[0096]

[0097]

[0098] In the two equations above, η is a constant, called the learning rate, which is usually taken as 0 < η < 1.

[0099] Combining the above equations, we can obtain the following formulas for adjusting the weights of the hidden layer and the output layer:

[0100]

[0101]

[0102] Similarly, the threshold adjustment formulas for the hidden layer and output layer are as follows:

[0103]

[0104]

[0105] After calculating the new weights and thresholds according to the weight and threshold adjustment formula, a new round of forward propagation process begins.

[0106] The above derivation process is based on a single training sample and a single-hidden-layer BP neural network. The basic idea is equally applicable to multi-hidden-layer BP neural networks. When calculating the adjustment amounts for weights and thresholds, the process proceeds recursively from the output layer through each intermediate hidden layer back to the first hidden layer. The error across multiple training samples is calculated as the cumulative sum of the errors of each individual sample.

[0107] Figure 7 The flowchart of the BP multilayer feedforward neural network algorithm of the present invention is shown;

[0108] S3. Train the artificial neural network algorithm model for cold-rolled thin strip steel;

[0109] S3 includes the following specific steps, as follows: Figure 7 As shown:

[0110] S31. Using the plastic strain ratios produced by the production line over a period of time as training samples, provide the input vector and output vector;

[0111] S32. Initialize weights and thresholds, and calculate the output of each node in the hidden layer and output layer;

[0112] S33. Calculate the error E between the expected output and the actual output, and determine whether the error E meets the technical requirements;

[0113] S34. If the error E meets the technical requirements, the calculation ends. If the error E does not meet the technical requirements, the error of each unit in the hidden layer and the output layer is calculated, the error gradient is calculated, and the weights and thresholds are updated.

[0114] In S3, the artificial neural network algorithm model training process includes forward propagation of signals and backward propagation of errors. For each training sample, during forward propagation of signals, the input vector is passed from the input layer to the output layer layer by layer. During backward propagation of errors, the error is passed from the hidden layer to the input layer layer by layer. The two execution processes are repeated until the set termination condition is met.

[0115] Figure 8 This illustration shows the plastic strain ratio distribution along the entire length of the cold-rolled thin strip in an embodiment of the present invention.

[0116] S4. Apply the artificial neural network algorithm model of cold-rolled thin strip steel to online detection; wherein S4 includes the following specific steps:

[0117] S41. Compare the calculated values ​​of the plastic strain ratio of the sample using the artificial neural network algorithm model with the offline test values ​​of the sample;

[0118] S42. Evaluate whether the artificial neural network algorithm model meets the requirements according to the online detection evaluation criteria. The online detection evaluation criteria are: for a given number of samples N, the measurement accuracy of 90% of the samples meets the requirement of relative error ≤10%.

[0119] In a specific embodiment, the online detection technology for the plastic strain ratio of a coil of steel on a production line is described above. The main parameters of the artificial neural network are as follows: Model: BP multilayer feedforward neural network; Model structure: Three-layer structure: input layer, hidden layer, and output layer.

[0120] The model input layer contains 44 parameters, including electromagnetic parameters: EM1, ..., EM41, totaling 41 items; the distance between the probe and the lower surface of the strip: Gap (satisfying condition 4≤Gap≤6); strip thickness and tension.

[0121] The model has 10 hidden layers, with the optimal number to be determined during model training based on data experiments. The output layer has one parameter: the plastic strain ratio. The transfer function between the input layer and the hidden layers is the Sigmoid function, while the transfer function between the hidden layers and the output layer is the Purelin function.

[0130] A BP multilayer feedforward neural network was used for real-time detection of a coil of steel strip.
