Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of rail transit equipment testing technology, and in particular to a method, apparatus, equipment, and storage medium for testing the stiffness of fasteners. Background Technology

[0002] Fasteners are a crucial component of track structures, transferring the loads exerted by vehicles on the rails to the substructure, ensuring the safety and reliability of vehicle operation. However, under long-term train loads, the elastic pads of the fasteners age, leading to a gradual increase in fastener stiffness. Increased fastener stiffness exacerbates wheel-rail dynamic interaction, increasing the vibration energy transmitted to the substructure and significantly raising the environmental vibration levels around the track. This negatively impacts the daily lives and health of residents in the vicinity, while also accelerating fatigue damage to the track structure and increasing maintenance costs. Therefore, rapidly detecting the fastener stiffness of the entire track has significant social and economic benefits.

[0003] Currently, indoor testing methods for fastener stiffness are relatively mature and have corresponding testing standards. The standard "Test Methods for Fastener Systems of High-Speed ​​Railways Part 3: Determination of Assembly Static Stiffness" (TB / T 3396.3-2015) specifies an indoor testing method for the static stiffness of fastener assembly: a load perpendicular to the bottom surface of the rail is applied to the rail of the assembled fastener system using a testing machine, and the displacement of the rail relative to the sleeper under the load is measured. The fastener stiffness is calculated based on the vertical displacement of the rail at loads of 5kN and 55kN. While this indoor testing method can obtain fastener stiffness relatively accurately, it requires disassembling the fasteners on the track before testing in the laboratory, resulting in low testing efficiency and difficulty in comprehensively obtaining the evolution of fastener stiffness across the entire railway network. Some scholars have also proposed a method to directly infer the stiffness of track components from the measured frequency response function through on-site hammer impact tests. However, this method requires specific equipment and experienced engineering technicians, and the accuracy is greatly affected by the track condition, making it difficult to widely promote across the entire railway network.

[0004] Therefore, while existing methods for testing the stiffness of fasteners can meet the needs of a small number of fastener stiffness tests, they have drawbacks such as requiring high levels of equipment and technical personnel, and cannot yet meet the needs of routine railway engineering projects.

[0057] Preferably, the artificial intelligence algorithm model includes any one of the following: a deep neural network model, a support vector machine model, or a recurrent neural network model.

[0058] The specific training process of the fastener stiffness prediction model is as follows:

[0059] (1) Collect sufficient vehicle parameters, track parameters and fastener stiffness for several sample routes.

[0060] The vehicle parameters include: wheelset mass (M / kg), wheel radius (R / m), and tread type (conical or worn tread) of the track inspection vehicle; the track parameters include: rail modulus of elasticity (E / Pa) and rail moment of inertia about the horizontal axis (I / m) across the entire track. 4 The wheel-rail contact stiffness in the vehicle-track coupled dynamics model constructed below will also differ depending on the tread type.

[0061] (2) Establish a vehicle-track coupled dynamic model based on the collected vehicle and track parameters.

[0062] The vehicle-track coupled dynamics model is established based on the collected vehicle and track parameters, using the principles of wheel-rail dynamics. It can be a two-dimensional or three-dimensional model. Please refer to [link / reference]. Figure 2 This is a schematic diagram of a two-dimensional vehicle-track coupled dynamics model. When using this model, the vehicle is considered a 10-DOF (degrees of freedom) multi-rigid body, the rails and track slabs are simulated using two-dimensional beam elements, and the vehicle suspension, fasteners, and foundation are simulated using spring-damping elements. The labels in the diagram are: 1-car body, 2-bogie, 3-wheelset, 4-secondary suspension, 5-primary suspension, 6-track irregularity, 7-rail, 8-fastener.

[0063] Please refer to Figure 3 This is a schematic diagram of a three-dimensional vehicle-track coupled dynamics model. When using this model, the vehicle is considered a multi-rigid body with 31 or 35 degrees of freedom. The rails are simulated using three-dimensional beam elements, and the track slab is modeled using shell or solid elements. The vehicle suspension, fasteners, and foundation are simulated using spring-damping elements. Track types can include: integral track bed, trapezoidal sleepers, vibration-damping floating slabs, and steel spring floating slabs, etc.

[0064] (3) Obtain the wheel-rail vertical force of the sample line.

[0065] Using the vehicle and track parameters of the above sample lines as independent variables, orthogonal experimental design and central composite design are used as sampling strategies. Sampling is carried out within the reasonable range of values ​​of each independent variable. The sampled samples are substituted into the established vehicle-track coupled dynamic model. At the same time, in order to excite the vibration of the wheel-rail coupled system, random track irregularities are applied to the wheel-rail contact surface of the coupled dynamic model to obtain the time history data of the wheel-rail vertical force.

[0066] (4) Calculate the fundamental frequency of the wheel-rail coupling system of the sample line.

[0067] Fourier transform was performed on the above wheel-rail vertical force time history data to obtain the frequency corresponding to the first obvious peak in the wheel-rail vertical force spectrum, which is the fundamental frequency (f / Hz) of the wheel-rail coupling system of the sample line.

[0068] (5) Model training process.

[0069] Using the above-mentioned sampled samples and the fundamental frequency of the wheel-rail coupling system of the sampled line as input samples, and the fastener stiffness as output samples, the samples are substituted into an artificial intelligence algorithm model composed of deep neural networks, support vector machines, or recurrent neural networks. The model is then continuously trained, verified, and optimized to fit the complex functional relationship between the fastener stiffness and the vehicle parameters, track parameters, and the fundamental frequency of the wheel-rail coupling system, thereby generating the fastener stiffness prediction model.

[0070] To further illustrate the fastener stiffness prediction model of this invention, a specific implementation example is provided below to explain the training process of the fastener stiffness prediction model:

[0071] S1. Taking a certain urban railway project as an example, the car body mass is 37200kg, the bogie mass is 2700kg, the wheelset mass is 1935kg, the wheel radius is 0.43m, the wheel tread is a wearing type, the design speed is 160km / h, and the rail elastic modulus is 2.059×10⁻⁶. 11 Pa, the moment of inertia of the rail about the horizontal axis is 0.3217 × 10⁻⁶. -4 m 4 The fastener spacing is 0.6m.

[0072] S2. Based on the principle of wheel-rail coupled dynamics, a two-dimensional coupled dynamic model of vehicle-track is established according to the vehicle and track parameters collected in S1. The vertical contact between wheel and track is simulated using a nonlinear load contact model.

[0073] S3. Using the vehicle and track parameters described in S1 as independent variables, a central composite design method is adopted as the sampling strategy. Sampling is carried out within the reasonable range of values ​​of each independent variable. The sampled samples are shown in Table 1 below.

[0074]

[0075]

[0076] Table 1 Sampling Sample

[0077] Substituting the sampled data into the vehicle-track coupled dynamics model established in S2, and using the German low-interference spectrum as the excitation for the wheel-rail system, time history data of the wheel-rail vertical force were obtained. Please refer to... Figure 4 , is the time history diagram of the vertical force on the wheel and rail.

[0078] S4. Perform a Fourier transform on the wheel-rail vertical force time history data described in S3 to obtain the frequency corresponding to the first obvious peak in the wheel-rail vertical force spectrum, i.e., the fundamental frequency (f / Hz) of the wheel-rail coupling system. The fundamental frequency of the wheel-rail coupling system is 46.14Hz. Please refer to [reference needed]. Figure 5 The graph shows the frequency spectrum of the wheel-rail vertical force. The amplitude of the wheel-rail vertical force in a double logarithmic coordinate system is shown below. Figure 5 As shown.

[0079] S5. Using the sampled data from S3 and the corresponding wheel-rail system fundamental frequency from S4 as input samples, and the fastener stiffness as the output sample, these are substituted into an artificial intelligence algorithm model composed of a deep neural network. This model is then continuously trained and validated. Mean square error, root mean square error, and mean absolute error are used to evaluate the accuracy and robustness of the AI ​​algorithm model in predicting the fastener stiffness. If the prediction error does not meet the requirements, the AI ​​algorithm model is optimized, and the above process is repeated until the prediction error meets the corresponding requirements. This allows for the fitting of a complex functional relationship between the fastener stiffness and the parameters described in S1 and the wheel-rail coupling system fundamental frequency.

[0080] S6. Using the force-measuring wheelsets in a track inspection vehicle commonly used in railway engineering, the entire line is inspected to obtain the wheel-rail vertical force at different mileages. A Fourier transform is performed on the wheel-rail vertical force to obtain the fundamental frequency of the wheel-rail coupling system. Substituting the fundamental frequency of the wheel-rail coupling system and the vehicle and track parameters described in S1 into the artificial intelligence algorithm model, the fastener stiffness at different mileages of the line can be predicted. The comparison results of the fastener stiffness prediction results from the artificial intelligence algorithm model with the actual fastener stiffness are shown in Table 2 below.

[0081] Fastener stiffness (kN / mm) 34.08 35.00 2.63%

[0082] Table 2 Error Analysis

[0083] As shown in Table 2, the maximum error between the prediction results of the artificial intelligence algorithm model and the actual fastener stiffness is only 2.63%, which indicates that the artificial intelligence algorithm model can well map the vehicle and track parameters mentioned in S1 as well as the functional relationship between the fundamental frequency of the wheel-rail coupling system and the fastener stiffness.

[0084] Therefore, this invention provides a method for detecting fastener stiffness. Utilizing a pre-trained fastener stiffness prediction model, the vehicle parameters, track parameters, and the fundamental frequency of the wheel-rail coupling system of the line under test are input into the model, which then outputs the predicted fastener stiffness of the line under test. Addressing the shortcomings of existing fastener stiffness detection methods, this invention leverages a vehicle-track coupling dynamics model and artificial intelligence algorithms to fully utilize the inherent relationships between fastener stiffness, the fundamental frequency of the wheel-rail coupling system, and vehicle and track parameters. This enables the detection and evaluation of line-level fastener stiffness, significantly accelerating the transformation of railway engineering towards intelligent operation and maintenance.

[0088] The fundamental frequency calculation module is used to obtain the wheel-rail vertical force of the line under test, and calculate the fundamental frequency of the wheel-rail coupling system of the line under test based on the wheel-rail vertical force of the line under test.

[0089] The fastener stiffness prediction module is used to input the vehicle parameters, track parameters, and wheel-rail coupling system fundamental frequency of the line to be tested into a preset fastener stiffness prediction model, so that the fastener stiffness prediction model can predict the fastener stiffness of the line to be tested based on the vehicle parameters, track parameters, and wheel-rail coupling system fundamental frequency, and output the predicted fastener stiffness of the line to be tested.
