Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the fields of water conservancy and experimental measurement, and in particular to a method and system for synchronous measurement of the coupling between the movement of flexible plants and water flow. Background Technology

[0002] In aquatic environments such as rivers, lakes, and coastal areas, plant movement significantly impacts water flow resistance, disturbance, and flow field structure. For some time, research on the flow dynamics of aquatic plants, both experimental and numerical, has widely employed generalized rigid models to simulate plants. However, most plants, especially aquatic plants, possess a degree of structural flexibility, which determines that underwater plants exhibit motion responses under hydrodynamic forcing. For example, flow separation and vortex shedding can cause plant swaying. This hydrodynamic mechanism of plant movement coupled with surrounding flow is an important engineering problem in the fields of hydraulics and marine engineering.

[0003] The quantification of fluid-structure interaction motion and flow field is central to studying key processes. Specifically, simultaneous measurement of the three-dimensional motion and flow characteristics of flexible plants is crucial. However, due to the significant challenges in simultaneously sampling and quantifying the flow field and plant motion of models simulating real plants, most current experimental schemes can only capture the independent characteristics of a single research object, i.e., flow field features or plant motion behavior. These methods cannot reveal the instantaneous coupling between turbulent structures and plant deformation.

[0004] In summary, traditional measurement systems have the following drawbacks: They lack efficient synchronous detection capabilities: the motion of flexible structures and the flow field are typically measured separately and independently. They lack three-dimensional detection capabilities for flexible structures: particle image velocimetry systems or camera recognition capture are limited to planar motion and cannot capture three-dimensional motion. They lack planar flow velocity measurement: traditional measurements commonly use single-point acoustic Doppler velocimetry, and the combination of planar particle image velocimetry systems and motion imaging is rare. Therefore, it is necessary to design a new measurement system capable of accurately measuring the three-dimensional motion of flexible plants and simultaneously coupling it with two-dimensional planar water flow. Summary of the Invention

[0005] The purpose of this application is to provide a method and system for synchronous measurement of the coupling between the movement of flexible plants and water flow, which simultaneously measures the movement of flexible plants and water flow data, and performs coupled synchronous analysis of the two to achieve comprehensive observation and analysis of the coupling process between the movement of flexible plants and water flow.

[0031] Please refer to this again. Figure 1B As shown, in one embodiment of this application, the experimental water tank includes a rectifier 11, an electromagnetic flowmeter 15, a slope adjustment gear 17, a centrifugal pump drive device 14, and an electric tailgate 13. The rectifier 11 is disposed within the experimental water tank and is used to stably and uniformly process the water flow accelerated by the centrifugal pump drive device 14 to generate a stable and uniform flow. The electromagnetic flowmeter 15 is disposed on the outlet side of the centrifugal pump drive device 14 and is used to detect the flow rate of the water flow accelerated by the centrifugal pump drive device 14. The slope adjustment gear 17 is disposed under the support platform of the flexible plant model 19 and is used to adjust the fixed slope of the open channel where the flexible plant model 19 is located. The centrifugal pump drive device 14 is disposed downstream of the outlet water tank of the experimental water tank and is used to provide a stable flow of water to the upstream inlet water tank. The electric tailgate 13 is disposed on the drainage side at the end of the experimental water tank and is used to adjust the water level of the experimental section of the flexible plant model array arrangement by controlling the water flow discharge. The experimental water tank may also include a water level probe, which is used to detect the water depth at the location of the flexible plant model. A water level probe can effectively determine the water level depth, which can be used to verify the realization and stability of unidirectional uniform flow.

[0032] The experimental water tank also includes a water level probe used to detect the water depth of the flexible plant model. Specifically, in practical applications, the experimental water tank can be 16m × 0.5m × 0.5m in size, and includes a rectifier 11, a water level probe 12, an electric tailgate 13, a centrifugal pump 14, an electromagnetic flowmeter 15, an inlet water tank 16, a slope adjustment gear 17, an outlet water tank 18, an experimental plant model 19, and a control system 110. The inlet water tank 16 is the water inlet, and the control system 110 is mainly used to control the centrifugal pump 14 to accelerate the circulating water in the experimental water tank according to received control commands. Overall, the experimental water tank, through multiple components such as the rectifier, water level monitor, electromagnetic flowmeter, slope adjustment gear, centrifugal pump drive system, and tailgate, achieves precise control of water flow conditions to provide a stable, uniform, unidirectional flow with a slope as required.

[0033] In one embodiment of this application, the motion measurement device includes a positioning frame and at least two sets of imaging modules; the positioning frame is movably mounted on the side and top of the experimental water tank; the two sets of imaging modules are fixed by the positioning frame and are used to collect the flow direction and vertical motion and the flow direction and longitudinal motion of the flexible plant model, respectively. Based on the flow direction and vertical motion and the flow direction and longitudinal motion, the three-dimensional motion and motion trajectory of the flexible plant model under the action of unidirectional stable uniform flow are obtained through correction.

[0034] Specifically, in practical work, the motion measurement device consists of two cameras and a positioning frame. This device is used to measure the three-dimensional motion of flexible plants, including their deformation, displacement and vibration, and can accurately capture the movement trajectory of the plants.

[0035] In another embodiment of this application, the water flow measuring device is a PIV particle image velocimetry system, which includes a CCD high-speed camera and a laser source emitter; the laser source emitter is fixed by the positioning frame and is used to provide a laser source; the CCD high-speed camera is mounted on the structural truss supporting the experimental water tank and is used to collect two-dimensional planar water flow parameters based on the laser source.

[0036] Specifically, in practical operation, the water flow measurement device consists of a planar particle image velocimetry system. This device is used to capture the flow field in the measurement area to obtain relevant data on the two-dimensional planar water flow. The overall structure of the motion measurement device and the water flow measurement device can be found in [reference needed]. Figure 2 As shown, the system includes dual cameras 21 and 22; a CCD high-speed camera 31; and a laser light source 32. The four devices are synchronized via synchronous controllers 41 and 42. Camera 21 records the flow direction and vertical movement of the plants, while camera 22 detects the flow direction and longitudinal movement. Both are uniformly corrected using the flow direction movement data to achieve three-dimensional motion reconstruction. In this structure, side-viewing devices 21 and 31 are mounted on the structural truss 24, while top-viewing devices 22 and 32 are mounted on a movable positioning frame 23. The movable positioning frame can be moved and positioned on a circular guide rail 25 on the water tank. The movable positioning frame is as follows... Figure 3 As shown, the system includes four pulleys 51, two connecting shafts 52, four columns 53, a mounting beam 54, and a camera gimbal 55. The pulleys 51 are respectively mounted in pre-set grooves on the top of the experimental water tank to facilitate radial movement of the positioning frame. The connecting shafts 52 maintain the synchronization and stability of the pulleys 51. The columns 53 support the entire mounting beam 54, and the camera gimbal 55 is fixed to the mounting beam 54. The overhead viewing devices 22 and 32 are mounted on the camera gimbal 55 to achieve image acquisition and positioning.

[0037] Please refer to Figure 4 As shown in one embodiment of this application, the analysis device includes a noise reduction module, a trajectory extraction module, a flow field data extraction module, and a processing module. The noise reduction module is used to correct, reduce noise, filter, and preprocess the received sphere three-dimensional motion video data and flow field data. The trajectory extraction module is used to obtain image data frame by frame from the sphere video data, locate the sphere data in the image data through a circular Hough transform accumulator array, and obtain the sphere trajectory at each time point based on the sphere data. The flow field data extraction module is used to obtain flow field data at each time point based on the two-dimensional plane water flow parameters. The processing module is used to obtain the coupling characteristics of flexible plant movement and water flow based on the temporal correlation analysis of the sphere trajectory and the flow field data. The trajectory extraction module further includes an adjustment unit connected to the trajectory extraction module, used to compare the sphere trajectory with a preset threshold, adjust the sensitivity of the circular Hough transform accumulator array based on the comparison result, and perform image dilation on the image data.

[0038] In practical work, the analysis device can adopt data processing methods based on MATLAB calculation software, specifically including post-processing operations such as data noise reduction (images), extraction of the motion trajectory of a circular ball, extraction of flow field data, and data filtering.

[0039] First, the image is scaled and lens distortion corrected, refer to... Figure 5A .

[0040] Tracking the trajectory of the ball requires three steps: First, the video clip is cropped frame by frame into images, then the images are converted to grayscale and stretched. Next, median filtering is performed to obtain the median of the appropriate neighborhood size for each pixel. Then, a circular Hough transform accumulator array is applied to find the circle in the image, adjusting the sensitivity and radius range of the function for different situations, referring to... Figure 5B .

[0041] In the above embodiments, the key challenge in detection lies in whether a particle partially or completely overlaps with surrounding particles. To address this, this application provides corresponding solutions for two different flow conditions where this situation may occur. Specifically:

[0042] For low flow rates, particles from the same plant partially overlap; by setting higher sensitivity for the circular Hough transform accumulator array, they can be detected individually, as referenced. Figure 5C ;

[0043] On the other hand, for high flow rates, the bottom particles may be obscured by the top particles of adjacent upstream plants; when half of the bottom particles are obscured, image dilation can be performed on the image before further detection, as shown in the reference. Figure 5D .

[0044] However, in rare cases, the bottom ball may be mostly or completely obscured, which is difficult to detect. The position of the obscured ball can be linearly interpolated from the position data of the ball at adjacent time points, referencing... Figure 5E The results of the plant tracking algorithm for flexible plant communities obtained using the above method can be referenced. Figure 5F As shown.

[0045] Please refer to Figure 6 As shown, this application also provides a measurement method applicable to the aforementioned synchronous measurement system for the coupling of flexible plant movement and water flow, the method comprising:

[0046] S601 parses the received experimental requirements to obtain experimental parameters, and provides a unidirectional stable uniform flow with a slope to the flexible plant model according to the experimental parameters.

[0047] S602 triggers synchronous control through the experimental parameters to collect the three-dimensional motion and trajectory of the flexible plant model under the action of unidirectional stable uniform flow, as well as the two-dimensional planar water flow parameters of the preset area in the experimental water tank.

[0048] S603 obtains the coupling characteristics of flexible plant movement and water flow based on the time correlation analysis of the three-dimensional motion and trajectory with the two-dimensional planar water flow parameters. The specific implementation logic of each process has been described in detail in the foregoing embodiments, and will not be described in detail here.

[0049] The beneficial technical effects of this application are as follows: It provides comprehensive motion data by measuring and calculating the three-dimensional motion of plants through a dual-camera system. It organically combines multiple measurement methods, such as an experimental water tank, a DSLR camera system, and a PIV particle image velocimetry system, to form an integrated synchronous measurement system. In particular, it can simultaneously measure flexible plant motion and water flow data, and couple and analyze them synchronously, achieving comprehensive observation and analysis of the coupling process between flexible plant motion and water flow.
