Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to an asphalt layer viscoelastic parameter inversion method based on embedded sensor data, and belongs to the technical field of pavement monitoring. Background Art

[0002] Asphalt layer material is a typical viscoelastic material with extremely complex mechanical behavior. Understanding the evolution law of asphalt layer viscoelastic parameters under external complex loads and environments is of great guiding significance for the evaluation of asphalt layer service performance and scientific maintenance decision-making.

[0003] In past studies and applications, researchers mostly used external nondestructive testing technologies such as drop weight deflectometers and stress wave testers to detect the viscoelastic parameters of asphalt layers. However, the formulas of asphalt layer viscoelastic models (such as Burgers model, generalized Maxwell model, 2S2P1D fractional order model, MFZM fractional order model, etc.) are complex and have many parameters. It is difficult for commonly used external nondestructive testing technologies to obtain the convergence and unique solution of the viscoelastic parameters of asphalt layers. In recent years, by arranging stress and strain sensors inside the pavement to obtain the internal mechanical response of the pavement, high-quality data can be provided for the inversion of the mechanical parameters of each layer of the pavement. By optimizing the sensor layout scheme at each layer of the pavement, researchers can realize the inversion of the elastic modulus and traffic axle load of each layer of the pavement, but there is currently no inversion method for the viscoelastic parameters of the asphalt layer based on embedded sensor data.

[0050] As an example, the viscoelastic model is a Burgers model, a generalized Maxwell model, a 2S2P1D fractional order model, or a MFZM fractional order model.

[0051] As examples, existing optimization algorithms include, but are not limited to, Newton's method, pattern search, genetic algorithm, particle swarm algorithm, and agent model method.

[0052] According to experience, the Poisson's ratio μ of asphalt layer materials generally ranges from 0.25 to 0.4.

[0053] Specific embodiment: Combination Figure 2 Taking a typical asphalt pavement structure as an example, a three-dimensional strain sensor and a vertical stress sensor are arranged at the bottom of the asphalt layer. The layers of the typical asphalt pavement structure are asphalt layer, base layer and roadbed from top to bottom, with thicknesses of 0.2, 0.38, and +∞m, respectively. The Poisson's ratios of the layers are 0.3, 0.3, and 0.4 from top to bottom, and the densities of the layers are 2400, 2100, and 1900 kg / m from top to bottom. 3 The traffic load is in the form of a double-circle single-wheel standard axle load, with an axle load of 0.7 MPa, a load circle radius of 0.1065 m, a double-circle spacing of 0.3195 m, and a moving speed of 10 m / s. One of the wheel tracks of the traffic load is just above the sensor. The asphalt layer viscoelastic model uses the MFZM fractional order model, such as Figure 6 shown. Figure 6 Where E1 is the first spring elastic modulus, E2 is the second spring elastic modulus, η1 is the first fractional viscosity, η2 is the second fractional viscosity, α1 is the first fractional order, and α2 is the second fractional order.

[0054] Combination Figure 1 The specific inversion process is as follows: First, the time history curves of longitudinal strain, transverse strain, vertical strain and vertical stress are measured by the three-axis strain sensor and the vertical stress sensor, such as Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown in Figure 2, the corresponding longitudinal strain, transverse strain, vertical strain and vertical stress amplitude are 6.5με, 2.2με, -17.2με and -199.0kPa respectively. According to the time domain theoretical relationship between stress and strain, the equivalent elastic modulus of the asphalt layer is calculated to be 10.973.5MPa.

[0055] Through Fourier transform, the time history curves of longitudinal strain, transverse strain, vertical strain and vertical stress are transformed into the frequency domain, and the frequency domain characteristic function of the viscoelastic parameters of the asphalt layer is calculated using the frequency domain theoretical relationship of stress and strain, such as Figure 5 shown.

[0056] Finally, based on the particle swarm algorithm, with the equivalent elastic modulus of the asphalt layer and the frequency domain characteristic function of the viscoelastic parameters of the asphalt layer as input and the viscoelastic parameters of the asphalt layer as output, the viscoelastic parameters of the asphalt layer were iteratively adjusted to make the spectrum of the viscoelastic model consistent with the frequency domain characteristic function of the viscoelastic parameters of the asphalt layer. The viscoelastic parameters of the asphalt layer were inverted, and E1, E2, η1, η2, α1, and α2 were 391.5 MPa, 34999.9 MPa, 15676.7, 4837.6, 0.17, and 0.47, respectively.
