Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of safety assessment of bridges in service, and particularly to a method for assessing corrosion fatigue damage of steel bridges using multi-source information fusion. Background Technology
[0002] With the continuous increase in vehicle axle load and traffic volume, fatigue damage is becoming one of the key issues affecting the service safety of steel bridges. Welded details are weak points in steel bridge structures, constantly subjected to repeated vehicle loads during service. Simultaneously, due to welding quality issues, materials may contain defects such as oxidation, impurities, and inhomogeneity. Stress concentrations often occur at these defects, easily inducing crack initiation under fatigue loading. Furthermore, long-term environmental corrosion during service further accelerates the fatigue fracture process of welded details, significantly reducing the remaining structural life. Existing fatigue damage assessment methods for steel bridges mainly consider factors such as stress ratio, stress amplitude, and loading frequency, rarely considering the coupled effects of welding residual stress and corrosion pit stress concentration. Therefore, there is an urgent need to conduct refined modeling research on crack propagation in welded details under corrosion-fatigue coupling.
[0003] Furthermore, the growth rate and path of corrosion fatigue cracks exhibit significant randomness, and a universal theoretical physical model for the entire service life of a structure has not yet been established. Key monitoring information of the in-service structure can provide the most accurate information for subsequent service life prediction. Combining limited measured information with prior information will help reduce the impact of subjective uncertainties and improve the accuracy of corrosion fatigue damage prediction for steel bridges. Bayesian networks can be used to characterize the complex uncertainties of model parameters and can fuse multi-source information such as experimental data, physical models, and monitoring data. However, traditional Bayesian methods mainly update based on observation point data, making it difficult to incorporate posterior moments and interval constraints of experimental material parameters, which are highly beneficial for diagnosing fatigue damage in steel bridges. Information entropy methods can effectively handle various information such as point, interval, and moment estimations through additional constraints. Therefore, how to combine Bayesian information entropy data fusion theory to construct a framework for the inversion and updating of corrosion fatigue damage in steel bridges has become an urgent technical challenge.

[0176] The beneficial effects of this embodiment compared to the prior art are as follows: This invention discloses a multi-source information fusion method for assessing corrosion fatigue damage in steel bridges, including updating corrosion fatigue crack propagation model parameters and damage prognosis. Specifically, based on the influence mechanism of welding residual stress and crack closure on corrosion fatigue crack propagation, a corrosion fatigue crack propagation model for steel bridge welding is established; a series of direct measured data of the undetermined parameters are obtained through corrosion fatigue crack propagation rate tests, and a priori distribution of the undetermined parameter C of the corrosion fatigue crack propagation model is established; based on the Bayesian network principle, the uncertainties of variables, parameters, and observation data in the corrosion fatigue crack propagation model are characterized; considering the moment information, interval direct measured information, and indirect information of crack observation points of the undetermined parameters, the posterior calibration of the undetermined parameter C is achieved through the maximum entropy principle; based on the calibration results of the undetermined parameter C and statistical information such as the actual number of load cycles, the corrosion fatigue damage assessment and remaining life prediction of the steel bridge welding details are realized. This invention combines Bayesian network theory and the information entropy method to fuse limited indirect observation data from the service life of steel bridges with multi-source information such as moment information and interval information of the undetermined parameter C. This overcomes the limitation of traditional Bayesian methods, which can only update data based on observation points. It helps to reduce the influence of chance and cognitive uncertainty in the damage assessment of steel bridges, and achieves high prediction accuracy for corrosion fatigue damage. The prediction method of this invention is reasonable, computationally efficient, and highly scalable, and can be widely applied to bridge structural safety assessment and intelligent operation and maintenance.
