[0035] Example 1

[0036] Figure 1 This is a flowchart of a vehicle after-processor bracket diagnostic method provided in Embodiment 1 of the present invention. This embodiment is applicable to situations where after-processor bracket strength analysis is performed on vehicles using after-processors. This method can be executed by a vehicle after-processor bracket diagnostic device, which can be implemented in hardware and / or software and can be configured in the vehicle controller. Figure 1 As shown, the method includes:

[0037] S110. Obtain the 3D model of the current vehicle's after-processor bracket, and generate a mesh model based on the 3D model.

[0038] The aftertreatment system is an integrated unit of the catalytic converter and engine exhaust muffler, located at the rear of the vehicle. It is used to treat exhaust pollutants and also functions as a muffler. The aftertreatment system bracket is a crucial component for mounting the aftertreatment system to the vehicle frame, and its structure significantly impacts the installation and operation of the aftertreatment system. Obtaining a 3D model of the current vehicle's aftertreatment system bracket includes obtaining 3D models of the aftertreatment system assembly bracket, the connecting frame longitudinal beams, the aftertreatment system assembly, and the bracket connecting bolts. The controller can then generate a mesh model based on the 3D model for subsequent bracket strength diagnostics. Figure 2 This invention provides a schematic diagram of the structure of a post-processor bracket. Figure 2 In the diagram, 1 represents the longitudinal beam section, 2 represents the after-processor assembly bracket, and 3 represents the after-processor assembly.

[0039] S120. Generate sub-evaluation results based on the mesh model, including modal structure results, stiffness evaluation results, and strength evaluation results.

[0040] Figure 3 This invention provides a flowchart of a vehicle after-processor bracket diagnostic method according to Embodiment 1. Step S120 mainly includes the following steps S121 to S124:

[0041] S121. Generate modal structure results based on the mesh model.

[0042] Optionally, generating modal structure results based on the mesh model includes: obtaining contact pairs and boundary constraints; performing modal calculations on the mesh model based on the contact pairs and boundary constraints to generate a modal cloud map; determining whether the color value in the modal cloud map is greater than a preset color threshold; if so, determining the modal structure result as abnormal; otherwise, determining the modal structure result as normal.

[0043] Specifically, contact pairs can be established in the contact areas of components, and constraints can be applied to the cut-off positions of the longitudinal beams. The controller can then obtain the set contact pairs and boundary constraints. Furthermore, the output mesh model can be a .inp format model file. After the model file is generated, modal calculations can be performed on the mesh model based on the contact pairs and boundary constraints. Modal calculation refers to the process of solving constrained modes, outputting the first 10 mode shapes to generate a modal contour map. Based on the modal contour map, it can be determined whether the post-processor support structure needs improvement. This can be judged by the color values ​​in the modal contour map. When the modal contour map is brightly colored, i.e., the color value is greater than the preset color threshold, it indicates a high risk of resonance in that area, and the support structure needs to be improved. In this case, the modal structure result will be determined as abnormal. Conversely, when the color value is not greater than the preset color threshold, it indicates no risk of resonance, and the post-processor support structure does not need to be improved. The modal structure result will be determined as normal.

[0044] S122. Apply an acceleration load in a specified direction to the mesh model to perform stiffness calculation and generate stiffness calculation results.

[0045] For example, stiffness and strength can be calculated by applying acceleration loads in specified directions to the assembly based on experimental data. The static load acceleration in each direction is the extreme value of the measured load spectrum, and the fatigue load is the equivalent average amplitude. After loading, the data is imported into ABAQUS software for solution calculation, and the stiffness and strength calculation results are obtained in .odb file format.

[0046] S123. Extract the displacement from the stiffness calculation results. When the displacement is within the specified displacement range, determine that the stiffness evaluation result is normal.

[0047] Specifically, displacement data can be read from the stiffness calculation results to evaluate the bracket stiffness. The evaluation criteria are determined based on the actual space and displacement requirements. When the displacement is within the specified range, the stiffness is deemed to meet the requirements, meaning the stiffness evaluation result is normal. When the displacement is outside the specified range, the stiffness is deemed to fail to meet the requirements, meaning the stiffness evaluation result is abnormal.

[0048] Furthermore, when the stiffness does not meet the requirements, a stiffness evaluation anomaly prompt can be generated based on the displacement. The controller will then issue an alarm in a specified manner based on the prompt information. The alarm is intended to alert the user, allowing them to promptly understand the abnormality in the stiffness evaluation result and enabling them to inspect and adjust the post-processor support structure to ensure the proper installation and operation of the subsequent post-processor. The specified methods include voice or image. Voice can be broadcast through a speaker connected to the controller; for example, the voice content could be: "Stiffness evaluation result abnormal." Images can be displayed through a user terminal connected to the controller to alert the user.

[0049] S124. Extract stress values ​​from the stiffness and strength calculation results, and generate strength evaluation results based on the stress values.

[0050] Optionally, a strength evaluation result is generated based on the stress value, including: inputting the stress value into a preset algorithm to determine a safety factor; determining whether the safety factor is greater than a preset threshold; if so, determining the strength evaluation result as normal; otherwise, determining the strength evaluation result as abnormal.

[0051] Specifically, stress values ​​can be extracted from the strength calculation results. These stress values ​​are then input into the FEMFAT software for safety factor calculation. The strength of the post-processor assembly support is evaluated based on the safety factor. The safety factor includes a static safety factor and a fatigue safety factor. When the safety factor is greater than a preset threshold, the support strength is considered good, meaning the strength evaluation result is normal. For example, the preset threshold can be 1. When the safety factor is less than or equal to 1, the support strength is considered poor, meaning the strength evaluation result is abnormal. It should be noted that the preset thresholds related to the safety factor evaluation are formed through accumulated experience. If accumulated experience data or evaluation standards are unavailable, strength evaluation can be performed based on the stress calculation results, with the evaluation standard being that the maximum stress value is less than the material's tensile strength limit.

[0052] S130. Generate stent diagnosis results based on the results of each sub-evaluation.

[0053] Optionally, a stent diagnosis result is generated based on each sub-evaluation result, including: determining whether each sub-evaluation result contains abnormal results; if so, determining the stent diagnosis result as abnormal; otherwise, determining the stent diagnosis result as normal.

[0054] Specifically, if any sub-evaluation result among the modal structure result, stiffness evaluation result, and strength evaluation result is abnormal, it indicates that the post-processor support structure does not meet the requirements, and the support diagnosis result is determined to be abnormal. Only when all sub-evaluation results are normal is the support diagnosis result determined to be normal, and no adjustment to the support structure is required.

[0055] The technical solution of this invention obtains a three-dimensional model of the vehicle after-processor bracket, and generates a mesh model by meshing the three-dimensional model according to simulation requirements. By analyzing the mesh model, the sub-evaluation results can be determined. The sub-evaluation results include modal structure results, stiffness evaluation results, and strength evaluation results. Finally, the bracket diagnosis results can be generated based on the sub-evaluation results. This realizes the simulation and diagnosis of the after-processor bracket structure during the bracket design process, which facilitates timely adjustment of the structure, saves manpower and material resources, and improves diagnostic efficiency. It comprehensively considers the bracket stiffness, strength, and modal analysis, thereby improving the accuracy of diagnosis.

[0056] Example 2

[0057] Figure 4 This is a flowchart of a vehicle after-processor bracket diagnostic method provided in Embodiment 2 of the present invention. This embodiment adds a specific process for generating a mesh model based on a 3D model, building upon Embodiment 1. The specific content of steps S260-S270 is largely the same as steps S120-S130 in Embodiment 1, and therefore will not be repeated in this embodiment. Figure 4 As shown, the method includes:

[0058] S210. Obtain the 3D model of the current vehicle's after-processor bracket.

[0059] S220. Obtain the target material number, and match it in the preset material library according to the target material number to obtain the target inherent attribute that matches the target material number. The material library includes the correspondence between material numbers and inherent attributes.

[0060] The material properties include the material's elastic modulus, Poisson's ratio, tensile strength, yield strength, and S / N curve. The controller can match the target material number entered by the user with a preset material library. The material library includes the correspondence between material numbers and inherent properties. For example, the target material number could be Q235, and the corresponding target inherent property can be matched in the material library using this target material number.

[0061] S230. Determine the focus components and target connectors of the 3D model.

[0062] Optionally, determining the components of interest and target connectors in the 3D model includes: obtaining the length of the target longitudinal beam, and obtaining the components of interest and their connection relationships based on the 3D model, wherein the connection relationships include connection lengths and connectors; and filtering each connection length according to the length of the target longitudinal beam to obtain target connectors that match the length of the target longitudinal beam.

[0063] Specifically, after obtaining the 3D model, it is necessary to identify the components of interest and target connectors. ANSA software can be used for geometric cleanup and model simplification, removing components with low relevance and other unnecessary structures in the model. During cleanup, connectors can be filtered according to their connection length, and structures with minimal impact on the calculation results can be simplified, i.e., parts that are far from the components of interest can be simplified.

[0064] S240. Obtain seed size and element type based on target connector and interest element, wherein seed size includes mesh density, and element type includes continuum element, shell element, thin film element, beam element, rod element, rigid body element, connection element and infinite element.

[0065] The element type is related to the user's analysis needs, and the seed size refers to the mesh density of each component in the mesh model.

[0066] S250 combines the target's inherent properties, seed size, element type, target connectors, and elements of interest to generate a mesh model.

[0067] It should be noted that the mesh model requirements include: the extracted chassis portion should be modeled using 2D elements, with element sizes defined based on the overall chassis dimensions. The standard is that the element sizes should accurately represent the chamfers, bends, and other features of the component. The afterprocessor assembly bracket should use a 3D second-order tetrahedral mesh. The mesh element sizes should also be defined based on the overall dimensions of the afterprocessor assembly bracket, ensuring that the element sizes accurately represent the chamfers, bends, and other features of the component. The quality of the mesh elements must meet the computational requirements; distorted elements such as excessively small elements or overly sharp angles are not permitted.

[0068] Specifically, each component (including components of interest and target connectors) needs to have its corresponding inherent properties set, and each component needs to be assigned a corresponding seed size and element type to generate a mesh model. Additionally, each component needs to have the correct density set to ensure that the total mass of the afterprocessor assembly matches the actual mass. For example, components such as the afterprocessor assembly bracket and frame can have their properties defined according to actual material properties. The afterprocessor assembly itself is not a component of interest in this calculation and is used as a load. Shell elements are used to simulate and determine the mass distribution of the afterprocessor assembly to ensure the total mass is correct.

[0069] S260. Generate sub-evaluation results based on the mesh model, including modal structure results, stiffness evaluation results, and strength evaluation results.

[0070] Optionally, generate sub-evaluation results based on the mesh model, including: generating modal structure results based on the mesh model; applying an acceleration load in a specified direction to the mesh model to perform stiffness and strength calculations and generate stiffness and strength calculation results; extracting displacement from the stiffness and strength calculation results; determining the stiffness evaluation result as normal when the displacement is within a specified displacement range; extracting stress values ​​from the stiffness and strength calculation results and generating strength evaluation results based on the stress values.

[0071] Optionally, generating modal structure results based on the mesh model includes: obtaining contact pairs and boundary constraints; performing modal calculations on the mesh model based on the contact pairs and boundary constraints to generate a modal cloud map; determining whether the color value in the modal cloud map is greater than a preset color threshold; if so, determining the modal structure result as abnormal; otherwise, determining the modal structure result as normal.

[0072] Optionally, a strength evaluation result is generated based on the stress value, including: inputting the stress value into a preset algorithm to determine a safety factor; determining whether the safety factor is greater than a preset threshold; if so, determining the strength evaluation result as normal; otherwise, determining the strength evaluation result as abnormal.

[0073] S270. Generate stent diagnosis results based on the results of each sub-evaluation.

[0074] Optionally, a stent diagnosis result is generated based on each sub-evaluation result, including: determining whether each sub-evaluation result contains abnormal results; if so, determining the stent diagnosis result as abnormal; otherwise, determining the stent diagnosis result as normal.

[0075] The technical solution of this invention obtains a three-dimensional model of the vehicle after-processor bracket, and generates a mesh model by meshing the three-dimensional model according to simulation requirements. By analyzing the mesh model, the sub-evaluation results can be determined. The sub-evaluation results include modal structure results, stiffness evaluation results, and strength evaluation results. Finally, the bracket diagnosis results can be generated based on the sub-evaluation results. This realizes the simulation and diagnosis of the after-processor bracket structure during the bracket design process, which facilitates timely adjustment of the structure, saves manpower and material resources, and improves diagnostic efficiency. It comprehensively considers the bracket stiffness, strength, and modal analysis, thereby improving the accuracy of diagnosis.
