[0002] With advancements in neutron sources, imaging methodologies, and detector technologies, energy-selective neutron radiography based on the Bragg edge effect has become one of the most studied research areas in neutron radiography, often referred to as Bragg edge imaging. Using methods such as time-of-flight or neutron monochromatic instruments, energy-selective neutron radiography records continuous transmission energy spectrum data for each pixel of the detector while simultaneously imaging in space. Information extraction methods can then be used to obtain strain and strain information within the material.

[0003] The strain calculated by two-dimensional Bragg edge neutron imaging is the average strain of the material along the transmission path, but the strain at a specific location within the sample is unknown. Therefore, obtaining strain information at any location within the sample is a pressing technical problem that needs to be solved. Summary of the Invention

It should be understood that such data can be interchanged where appropriate so that the embodiments of the invention described herein can be implemented in orders other than those illustrated or described herein.

[0029] Example 1

[0030] Figure 1 This is a flowchart of a three-dimensional reconstruction method for the internal strain of an object according to Embodiment 1 of the present invention. This embodiment is applicable to the situation of three-dimensional reconstruction of the internal strain of a target object. This method can be executed by a three-dimensional reconstruction device for the internal strain of an object. This device can be implemented in hardware and / or software and can be configured in an electronic device. Figure 1 As shown, the method includes:

[0031] S110. When the target object is placed in a three-dimensional space in a target placement manner, determine the strain expression of the strain to be measured inside the target object.

[0032] In this embodiment, the target object refers to the object whose internal strain needs to be determined. Optionally, the target object is a metal sample. The target placement method can be understood as the placement posture of the target object in three-dimensional space, that is, the target object is placed in three-dimensional space according to the target placement method, and the expression of the internal strain to be measured is further determined. The strain to be measured can be understood as the strain at a certain position inside the target object. The strain expression is a mathematical expression of the strain to be measured.

[0033] Based on the above embodiments, the target placement method includes a first placement method, a second placement method, and a third placement method. The three-dimensional space is a Cartesian space. In the first placement method, the extension direction of the target object is parallel to the Z-axis of the Cartesian coordinate system. In the second placement method, the extension direction of the target object is parallel to the Y-axis of the Cartesian coordinate system. In the third placement method, the extension direction of the target object is parallel to the X-axis of the Cartesian coordinate system.

[0034] In this embodiment, the three-dimensional space is represented by a Cartesian coordinate system. The target object is placed in the three-dimensional space in different ways. For example, the extension direction of the target object is parallel to the Z-axis in the Cartesian coordinate system, or the extension direction of the target object is parallel to the Y-axis, or the extension direction of the target object is parallel to the X-axis. The target object is placed in different ways to perform neutron imaging of the target object from multiple angles.

[0035] Based on the above technical solution, determining the strain expression of the strain to be measured inside the target object includes: determining the initial strain expression of the strain to be measured in the Cartesian coordinate system, and determining the angle value in the initial strain expression based on the target placement method; substituting the angle value into the initial strain expression to obtain the strain expression of the strain to be measured inside the target object.

[0036] It should be noted that strain is a second-order tensor, containing nine components in three-dimensional space: three normal stress components and six shear stress components. In a static state of equilibrium (no torque), the shear stress is diagonally symmetric, and only six of the nine components are independent. To calculate the strain tensor at a standard location, at least six independent strain measurements are required in different ε{φ,ψ} directions. Figure 2 The figure shows a spatial diagram of the strain to be measured inside the target object. In the coordinate system of the sample, the strain to be measured consists of six components: principal strain and shear strain. The initial strain expression for the strain to be measured is:

[0037] ε{φ,ψ}=ε 11 cos 2 φsin 2 φ+ε 12 sin 2 φsin 2 ψ+ε 22 sin 2 φsin 2 ψ+ε 33 cos 2 ψ+ε 13 cosφsin2ψ+ε 23 sinφsin2ψ (1)

[0038] If it is necessary to determine the specific magnitude of the strain to be measured, it is necessary to solve the initial strain expression for the strain to be measured. In this embodiment, firstly, the angle value in the initial strain expression is determined according to the target placement method, that is, different placement methods correspond to different angle values. Then, the determined angle value is substituted into the initial strain expression to obtain the strain expression for the strain to be measured inside the target object. In a preferred embodiment scenario, if the target placement method is the first placement method, it means that the extension direction of the target object is parallel to the Z-axis. Since 2θ reaches 180° during transmission, that is, when the Bragg edge is imaged, ψ is equal to 90°. At this time, formula (1) can be written as formula (2).

[0039] ε φ90° ε 11 cos 2 φ+ε 22 sin 2 φ+ε12 sin2φ (2)

[0040] At this point, the six quantities that need to be rebuilt can be reduced to three quantities ε. 11 ,ε 22 ,ε 12 The first thing to achieve is the reconstruction of these three quantities. If the target is placed in the second way, it means that the extension direction of the target object is parallel to the Y-axis, which means that φ is equal to 90°. Substituting into formula (1), we can obtain the strain expression corresponding to the second placement method.

[0041] S120. Perform neutron imaging on the target object based on the target imaging angle to obtain the neutron imaging Bragg side spectrum corresponding to the target object.

[0042] In this embodiment, the target imaging angle refers to the angle at which neutron imaging is performed on the target object. A neutron beam is emitted toward the target object according to the target imaging angle, and then the neutrons passing through the target object are detected by a corresponding neutron detector. Finally, the Bragg side spectrum of the neutron imaging is obtained.

[0043] Based on the above embodiments, the step of performing neutron imaging on the target object based on the target imaging angle to obtain the neutron imaging Bragg side spectrum corresponding to the target object includes: determining multiple target imaging angles based on an initial angle, a termination angle, and a set step size; performing neutron imaging on the target object based on the multiple target imaging angles; and obtaining the neutron imaging Bragg side spectrum at each target imaging angle.

[0044] In this embodiment, during neutron imaging, the neutron emitting device can adjust the emission angle, i.e., the target imaging angle. For example, the initial angle can be 0 degrees, the ending angle can be 360 ​​degrees, and the step size can be 1 degree. Specifically, when the target is placed in the first placement mode, the extension direction of the target object is parallel to the Z-axis. During neutron imaging of the target object, the neutron emitting device is rotated using the Z-axis as the rotation axis. 0 degrees is taken as the angle at the start of rotation, and 360 degrees is taken as the angle at the stop of rotation. Bragg side spectrum imaging data is collected every 1 degree, thus obtaining neutron imaging Bragg side spectra at multiple target imaging angles.

[0045] S130. Based on the neutron imaging Bragg edge spectrum, the average strain expression of the target object, and the strain expression of the strain to be measured, determine the strain information of the strain to be measured inside the target object.

[0046] like Figure 3 The image shown is a schematic diagram of the Bragg transmission imaging information of the sample. The average strain obtained through Bragg edge imaging can be written in the following form:

[0047]

[0048] Neutron along direction The internal strain at the point through which the sample passes through thickness L is averaged by 1 / L to obtain Γ. ε , Γ ε That is, the value obtained by Bragg imaging, Γ ε In (p,θ), θ refers to the projection angle, and p refers to the position. The strain information within the target object refers to the magnitude and direction of the strain being measured.

[0049] Based on the above embodiments, determining the strain information of the strain to be measured inside the target object based on the neutron imaging Bragg side spectrum, the average strain expression of the target object, and the strain expression of the strain to be measured includes: determining the average strain value based on the neutron imaging Bragg side spectrum, and updating the average strain expression of the target object based on the average strain value; converting the updated average strain expression of the target object into a discrete expression, and iteratively solving based on the discrete expression and the strain expression of the strain to be measured to determine the strain information of the strain to be measured.

[0050] It should also be noted that the precise location of the Bragg edge (interplanar spacing d) extracted from a single-angle two-dimensional image is... hkl Comparative analysis of interplanar spacing d under stress conditions hkl The elastic strain can be calculated by considering the change in interplanar spacing d0 under stress-free conditions.

[0051] ε=(d hkl -d0) / d0=(t hkl -t0) / t0 (4)

[0052] d0 is the stress-free interplanar spacing, and t0 is the flight time of the neutron in the stress-free sample.

[0053] Specifically, after neutron imaging of the target object, the Bragg side spectrum is obtained. The neutron flight time can be determined through the Bragg side spectrum. Then, according to the above formula (4), the strain value can be obtained, that is, the average strain value of the target object with thickness L, which is Γ in formula (3). ε The specific values ​​of (p,θ) are then substituted into formula (3) to obtain the updated expression for the average strain. Furthermore, according to Huke's law, the elastic stress equilibrium satisfies the following constraints:

[0054]

[0055]

[0056] Where v is Poisson's ratio. Formula (4) can be written in discrete form:

[0057]

[0058] Formula (6) is the discrete expression mentioned above.

[0059] Optionally, the iterative solution based on the discrete expression and the strain expression of the strain to be measured includes: decomposing the discrete expression based on the strain expression and converting it into a total variation expression; and iteratively solving based on the total variation expression to obtain the normal stress value and shear stress value corresponding to the strain to be measured.

[0060] In this embodiment, ε in formula (6) ij It can be decomposed according to formula (2), and also due to the prior condition of formula (5). For two-dimensional strain reconstruction, the system matrix M and the measured average strain Γ can be derived by projecting the sample from different angles. ε For simple samples, the penetration thickness L (p, Θ) can be measured directly or obtained from traditional CT reconstruction. The reconstruction problem then becomes the simple problem of ε = M. -1 Γ ε In actual reconstruction, direct matrix inversion is extremely difficult due to the massive computational load, the underdeterminacy of the equations, and the effects of measurement errors and noise. In such cases, iterative methods can be used to solve this problem.

[0061] It can be written in the form of a total variational solution:

[0062] ε=argmin||ε|| TV

[0063]

[0064] Here, ζ represents a very small numerical error.

[0065] Following the above solution process, based on the strain expression and mean stress expression corresponding to the first placement method, and the above solution process, the values ​​of the normal stress and shear stress of the strain to be measured, i.e., ε, can finally be obtained. 11 ,ε 22 ,ε 12 It should also be noted that, based on the strain and mean stress expressions corresponding to other placement methods, the values ​​of other normal stresses and shear stresses, i.e., ε, can be obtained. 23 ,ε 33 ,ε 13 The value.

[0066] Based on the above embodiments, determining the strain information of the strain to be measured inside the target object includes: calculating the strain information of the strain to be measured inside the target object based on the normal stress and shear stress values ​​corresponding to the strain to be measured. Specifically, the above steps have already obtained the values ​​of each normal stress and shear stress and their corresponding angles, and the specific magnitude and direction of the strain to be measured can be obtained through stress synthesis.

[0067] The technical solution of this invention, when a target object is placed in a three-dimensional space in a target placement manner, determines the strain expression of the strain to be measured inside the target object; performs neutron imaging on the target object based on the target imaging angle to obtain the corresponding neutron imaging Bragg edge spectrum of the target object; and determines the strain information of the strain to be measured inside the target object based on the neutron imaging Bragg edge spectrum, the average strain expression of the target object, and the strain expression of the strain to be measured. The technical solution of this invention solves the problem that current two-dimensional Bragg edge neutron imaging can only determine the average strain value inside an object, but cannot determine the strain information at any location inside the object, thus realizing the reconstruction of the three-dimensional strain inside the target object and the determination of the strain information at any location inside the target object.

[0068] Example 2

[0069] Figure 4 This is a schematic diagram of three-dimensional strain nondestructive testing sample acquisition according to Embodiment 2 of the present invention. This embodiment is a preferred embodiment among the above embodiments. Figure 4 As shown, the method includes:

[0070] The three-dimensional reconstruction method for the internal strain of an object according to embodiments of the present invention is achieved through the following steps:

[0071] First, the precise location of the Bragg edge (interplanar spacing d) is extracted from a single-angle two-dimensional image. h kl Comparative analysis of interplanar spacing d under stress conditions h kl The elastic strain can be calculated by considering the change in interplanar spacing d0 under stress-free conditions.

[0072] ε=(d h kl -d0) / d0=(t h kl -t0) / t0 (8)

[0073] d0 is the stress-free interplanar spacing, and t0 is the flight time of the neutron in the stress-free sample.

[0074] The second-order strain tensor requires nine components (three normal stress components and six shear stress components) to determine in three-dimensional space. In static equilibrium (no moment), the shear stress is diagonally symmetric, and only six of the nine components are independent. To calculate the strain tensor at a standard location, at least six independent strain measurements are required in different ε{φ, ψ} directions.

[0075] In the coordinate system of the sample, continue as follows Figure 2 As shown, strain ε φψ From principal strain ε 11 , ε 22 , ε 33 and shear strain ε 12 , ε 13 , ε 23 These six components are expressed as follows:

[0076] ε{φ,ψ}=ε 11 cos 2 φsin 2 φ+ε 12 sin 2 φsin 2 ψ+ε 22 sin 2 φsin 2 ψ+ε 33 cos 2 ψ+ε 13 cosφsin2ψ+ε 23 sinφsin2ψ (9)

[0077] During transmission, i.e., when imaging along the Bragg edge, 2θ reaches 180°, and ψ equals 90°. Strain reconstruction requires data acquisition from different angles. While ensuring the rotation axis remains constant at Axis3, formula (9) can be written as:

[0078] ε φ90° =ε 11 cos 2 φ+ε 22 sin 2 φ+ε 12 sin2φ (10)

[0079] At this point, the six quantities that need to be rebuilt can be reduced to three quantities ε. 11 , ε 22 , ε 12 The first thing to achieve is the reconstruction of these three quantities.

[0080] The average strain obtained by Bragg edge imaging can be written in the following form:

[0081]

[0082] Neutron along direction The internal strain at the point through which the sample passes through thickness L is averaged by 1 / L to obtain Γ. ε , Γ ε That is, the value obtained by Bragg imaging, Γ ε In (p, θ), θ refers to the projection angle, and p refers to the position.

[0083] According to Huke's law, elastic stress equilibrium satisfies the following constraints:

[0084]

[0085]

[0086] Where v is Poisson's ratio.

[0087] Formula (11) can be written in discrete form:

[0088]

[0089] ε in formula (13) ij It can be decomposed according to formula (10), and also due to the prior condition of formula (12). For two-dimensional strain reconstruction, the system matrix M and the measured average strain Γ can be derived by projecting the sample from different angles. ε For simple samples, the penetration thickness L (p, Θ) can be directly measured or obtained from traditional CT reconstruction. The reconstruction problem then becomes a simple ε = . In actual reconstruction, due to the huge computational load, the underdeterminacy of the equation, and the influence of measurement errors and noise, direct matrix inversion is very difficult. At this time, an iterative method can be used to solve this problem.

[0090] It can be written in the form of a total variational solution:

[0091] ε=argmin||ε|| TV

[0092]

[0093] Here, ζ represents a very small numerical error.

[0094] The above description illustrates the solution process; specific data collection can be done using... Figure 4 This means that the sample is first rotated 360° along the system coordinate system Z, and Bragg edge imaging data is collected at 1° intervals. After collecting 360° of data, ε is obtained according to the above solution process. 11 ,ε 22 ,ε 12 .

[0095] Furthermore, taking the y-axis of the coordinate system as the rotation axis, rotate the sample by 90° (lay the sample in the above figure upside down), and then formula (9) can be written as:

[0096] ε φ90° =ε 11 cos 2 φ+ε 33 sin 2 φ+ε 13 sin2φ (15)

[0097] Then, rotate 360° along the Z-axis, collecting Bragg edge imaging data at 1° intervals. After collecting 360° of data, obtain ε according to the above solution process. 11 ,ε 33 ,ε 13 .

[0098] Following this method, the principal strain ε can eventually be solved. 11 ,ε 22 ,ε 33 and shear strain ε 12 ,ε 13 ,ε 23 These six components.

[0099] The technical solution of this invention utilizes Bragg edge neutron imaging technology to accurately measure the distribution of two-dimensional residual strain within a material. However, many scientific problems remain to be studied in order to accurately characterize the three-dimensional stress tensor field within a material. This invention obtains the three-dimensional strain distribution of a material through data acquisition at 4π angles and tensor CT reconstruction.

[0100] The technical solution of this invention, when a target object is placed in a three-dimensional space in a target placement manner, determines the strain expression of the strain to be measured inside the target object; performs neutron imaging on the target object based on the target imaging angle to obtain the corresponding neutron imaging Bragg edge spectrum of the target object; and determines the strain information of the strain to be measured inside the target object based on the neutron imaging Bragg edge spectrum, the average strain expression of the target object, and the strain expression of the strain to be measured. The technical solution of this invention solves the problem that current two-dimensional Bragg edge neutron imaging can only determine the average strain value inside an object, but cannot determine the strain information at any location inside the object, thus realizing the reconstruction of the three-dimensional strain inside the target object and the determination of the strain information at any location inside the target object.
