Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of frequency domain seismic simulation analysis technology for server racks, specifically providing a method, apparatus, equipment, and medium for extracting plastic strain from the seismic response of server racks. Background Technology

[0002] With the increasing application of cloud computing and big data, higher and higher demands are being placed on the stability of hardware and electronic devices that provide computing and analysis. The seismic stability of the server racks housing these devices is a crucial aspect. Traditionally, server racks are verified to meet seismic requirements through earthquake tests. However, physical testing is expensive; for example, a single earthquake test on a 44U server rack can cost over 200,000 yuan. In an era focused on cost reduction and efficiency improvement, using simulation methods to evaluate the seismic resistance of server racks is particularly necessary.

[0003] Currently, there are two methods for earthquake simulation analysis: the time-domain method and the frequency-domain method. The time-domain method involves directly applying earthquake time-domain signals to the rack installation location for dynamic simulation. The frequency-domain method, also known as the response spectrum method, first calculates the maximum response of a single-degree-of-freedom oscillator system under seismic load at different natural frequencies, obtaining the response spectrum, which is the curve of the maximum response varying with frequency. Simultaneously, the large rack model is decomposed into numerous independent spring oscillator systems (each principal mode shape). Based on the response spectrum, modal vibration participation factor, and mode shape, the response values ​​of each node for each mode shape are calculated. Finally, the response values ​​are merged according to a specific method.

[0004] Time-domain simulations can account for material nonlinearity and component contact, offering high accuracy. However, for complex models, they are extremely time-consuming; a time-domain simulation of a single server rack can often take nearly 30 days to produce results, negating the purpose of the simulation. Frequency-domain simulations offer fast response times, calculating results for a server rack in just a few hours, and achieving over 95% accuracy for maximum displacement simulations. However, their drawback is that, being based on modal superposition, they cannot consider material plasticity and component contact. Extracting material plasticity parameters is an effective way to assess structural susceptibility to failure. The server rack is made of steel, a typical elasto-plastic material. Simulations that cannot extract plasticity parameters during seismic events are undoubtedly meaningless. Summary of the Invention

[0005] Since the frequency domain method is based on the modal superposition method, it cannot consider the plasticity of the material and the contact between components. Extracting the plasticity index of the material is one of the effective ways to determine whether a structure is susceptible to damage.

[0010] After receiving the trigger information indicating that the setup is complete, the new calculation model performs calculations and extracts the plasticity index of the cabinet at the most dangerous moment during the earthquake experiment.

[0011] The displacement result calculated using the frequency domain method is extracted, processed into a suitable format, and assigned to a new calculation model through discrete field definition. Simulation analysis enables rapid and accurate identification of the cabinet's seismic resistance level and risks, achieving simulation-based testing, reducing testing costs, and shortening the R&D cycle.

[0056] Currently, there are two methods for earthquake simulation analysis: the time-domain method and the frequency-domain method. The time-domain method involves directly applying earthquake time-domain signals to the rack installation location for dynamic simulation. The frequency-domain method, also known as the response spectrum method, first calculates the maximum response of a single-degree-of-freedom oscillator system under seismic load at different natural frequencies, obtaining the response spectrum, which is the curve of the maximum response varying with frequency. Simultaneously, the large rack model is decomposed into numerous independent spring oscillator systems (each principal mode shape). Based on the response spectrum, modal vibration participation factor, and mode shape, the response values ​​of each node for each mode shape are calculated. Finally, the response values ​​are merged according to a specific method.

[0057] Time-domain simulation can consider material nonlinearity and component contact, resulting in high simulation accuracy. However, for complex models, it is extremely time-consuming; a time-domain simulation of a single server rack often takes nearly 30 days to produce results, thus defeating the purpose of the simulation. Frequency-domain simulation has a fast response speed, calculating results for a server rack in just a few hours, and achieving over 95% accuracy for maximum displacement simulations. However, its drawback is that, since it is based on modal superposition, it cannot consider material plasticity and component contact. Extracting material plasticity indices is one of the effective ways to determine whether a structure is susceptible to damage. The server rack is made of steel, a typical elasto-plastic material. Simulations that cannot extract plasticity indices during earthquakes are undoubtedly meaningless. To enable those skilled in the art to better understand the technical solutions of this invention, the technical solutions in the embodiments of this invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

A device for extracting plastic strain from the seismic response of a server rack, characterized in that, The apparatus for implementing the method according to any one of claims 1-4 includes a displacement result extraction module, a result processing module, a model setting module, a file import module, and a calculation extraction module; The displacement result extraction module is used to extract the displacement results of all unit nodes in the cabinet and store them locally. The result processing module is used to process the displacement results stored locally. The model setup module is used to copy the original finite element model to generate a new computational model and to set the new computational model. The file import module is used to import data files after processing displacement results into a new calculation model. The calculation extraction module is used to perform calculations after the new calculation model receives the trigger information that has been set up. The calculation extracts the plasticity index of the cabinet at the most dangerous moment during the earthquake experiment.

6. An electronic device, characterized in that, The electronic device includes: at least one processor; and a memory communicatively connected to the at least one processor; wherein the memory stores computer program instructions executable by the at least one processor, the computer program instructions being executed by the at least one processor to enable the at least one processor to perform the cabinet seismic response plastic strain extraction method as described in any one of claims 1 to 4.

7. A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium, characterized in that, The non-transitory computer-readable storage medium stores computer instructions that cause the computer to execute the cabinet seismic response plastic strain extraction method as described in any one of claims 1 to 4.
