DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0017] The present invention will be further described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. The following embodiments are only used to more clearly illustrate the technical solution of the present invention, and cannot be used to limit the protection scope of the present invention.
[0018] Embodiment 1: like Figure 1 As shown, an embodiment of the present invention provides a method for quickly calculating the crack life of an asphalt pavement layer on a steel bridge deck, comprising the following steps: Step S1, determining characteristic data of a crack, wherein the characteristic data includes crack length, crack width and environmental parameters.
[0019] Specifically in this embodiment, the environmental parameters include the ambient temperature and the vehicle axle number. In other optional embodiments, other characteristic data may also be selected as needed.
[0020] Step S2: dynamically collect feature data and construct a feature data set.
[0021] The crack length and crack width can be directly collected manually through a distance measuring sensor or a tape measure, and the unit is mm; the ambient temperature can be collected through a temperature sensor, and the unit is ℃.
[0022] The calculation formula for vehicle axle times is as follows: ; ; In the formula, is the average number of vehicles passing through the steel bridge per day, is the traffic growth coefficient, is the annual traffic growth rate, For the preset period, is the lane allocation coefficient, which is generally 0.7-0.9. For the The percentage of traffic volume of vehicles of this type, For the The equivalent conversion factor for this type of vehicle converts various axle loads into a standard axle load (usually 8.2 tons).
[0023] The crack length, crack width, ambient temperature and vehicle axle frequency are aligned in time to obtain characteristic data , data should be collected multiple times over a period of time. For bridge cracks, data should be collected at least once a month for one year; all collected data should be regularly stored in a structured database and kept updated for subsequent analysis and prediction.
[0024] Step S3: Based on the characteristic data set, a multivariate regression analysis method is used to construct a time-varying model of crack evolution.
[0025] The formation and expansion of cracks in asphalt bridge decks are affected by many factors such as the properties of asphalt materials, the design of asphalt mixtures, repeated loads, temperature changes, etc. The calculation methods provided in this embodiment are all aimed at bridges that have been put into use, and only consider two key factors: ambient temperature and vehicle axle frequency.
[0026] Specifically in this embodiment, the time-varying model of crack evolution is constructed by using a multivariate regression analysis method, including: Using crack width as the benchmark for rapid calculation of crack life, a time-varying model of crack width evolution is constructed. : ; In the formula, Separately for the moment crack width, ambient temperature, and vehicle axle number; is the initial crack width, is the regression coefficient; Substitute the characteristic data set into the time-varying model of crack width evolution, fit the regression coefficients, and complete the model construction.
[0027] During the model construction process, the constructed time-varying model of crack width evolution is cross-validated to obtain the model accuracy. If the model accuracy does not meet the preset standard, the regression coefficient is refitted until the model accuracy meets the preset standard. Figure 2 As shown, a schematic diagram of the time-varying curve of the crack width evolution generated by the time-varying model of the crack width evolution is given.
[0028] In other optional implementations, the above method can also be used to construct a time-varying model of the evolution of crack length. .
[0029] Step S4: Based on the time-varying model of crack evolution, the time when the crack reaches the safety threshold is calculated to obtain the crack life.
[0030] Specifically in this embodiment, calculating the time when the crack reaches the safety threshold to obtain the crack life includes: Get the current crack width , and calculate its difference with the safety threshold The difference : ; According to the time-varying model of crack width evolution, the growth rate of crack width is predicted from the current moment. : ; According to the difference and growth rate , calculate the time when the crack reaches the safety threshold : ; Time As the crack lifetime from the current moment.
[0031] In other optional implementations, the above method can also be used to calculate the time when the crack length reaches the corresponding safety threshold as the crack life, or the time when the crack length and the crack width reach the corresponding safety threshold can be calculated at the same time, and the smaller time is taken as the crack life.
[0032] In addition to calculating the entire asphalt pavement layer of the steel bridge deck, it is also possible to perform zone calculations, including: (1) If Figure 3 As shown in the figure, the asphalt pavement of the steel bridge deck is divided into multiple areas, and multiple sub-areas that are most susceptible to load are selected in each area to calculate the crack condition index of each area. : ; ; In the formula, is the regional fracture evolution risk parameter, is the total area of all sub-regions in the region, For all sub-areas in the region The crack length and crack width of each crack; wherein, the asphalt pavement layer of the steel bridge deck is divided into multiple areas, including the width and length of the area based on the width of a single lane and a preset length (such as 10-20m), and the asphalt pavement layer of the steel bridge deck is divided.
[0033] (2) Sort the areas according to the crack condition index from small to large, and take the area with a preset proportion (such as 15%) as the vulnerable area. The vulnerable area is considered to be the part with the highest risk of crack expansion and needs priority maintenance.
[0034] (3) Based on the time-varying model of crack evolution, the time for the cracks in each vulnerable area to reach the safety threshold is calculated to obtain the crack life of each vulnerable area.
[0035] Furthermore, for each vulnerable area, corresponding characteristic data can be extracted from the characteristic data set, and a multivariate regression analysis method can be used to construct a time-varying model of crack evolution for each vulnerable area, thereby improving the model accuracy of each vulnerable area.
[0036] Each area can be ranked according to the length of time remaining, and the maintenance and repair of cracks in vulnerable areas of the asphalt bridge deck can be reasonably arranged.
[0037] In the actual application process, a reinforced concrete simply supported T-beam bridge built across a river in a certain city is taken as an example. The bridge is 200m long and 15m wide. The bridge deck is paved with 10cm asphalt concrete pavement. The load level is highway level I. It was officially put into use in 2022. The crack life of the vulnerable area of the asphalt pavement layer of this bridge is studied. From January 2023, the characteristic data of the cracks in the bridge deck pavement layer are collected once a month for one year. The characteristic data are sorted according to the collection time to form a characteristic data set as shown in Table 1 (partial data are listed).
[0038] Table 1: Bridge deck crack characteristics data collection table
[0039] Based on the characteristic data set, a multivariate regression analysis method is used to construct a time-varying model of crack width evolution: ; The bridge is 200m long and is divided into 10 areas with a fixed length of 20m. In each area, 4 square sub-areas of 1m*1m in size that are prone to cracks are selected from the most vulnerable area to load to collect crack characteristic data. The data in each area are analyzed independently to identify the crack risk in the area. Data were collected from the sub-areas in these 10 areas in December. The collection results are shown in Table 2 (partial data are listed).
[0040] Table 2: Crack characteristic data collection table divided by region
[0041] Calculate the crack condition index for each area , the results are shown in Table 3.
[0042] Table 3: Calculation table of pavement crack condition index
[0043] According to the above table, the value, The smaller the value, the denser the cracks and the higher the risk. The values are sorted from small to large, and the top 15% of the areas are selected as vulnerable areas. It can be concluded that areas 7 and 10 are considered to have the highest risk of crack propagation and require priority maintenance.
[0044] According to the specification, cracks in general asphalt pavement are considered to be severely damaged when their width reaches 5mm, so the limit width is: .
[0045] Referring to Table 2, the maximum crack width in region 7 is 3.35 mm, and the maximum crack width in region 10 is 3.51 mm, with differences of 1.65 mm and 1.49 mm, respectively.
[0046] The temperature in the region in January 2024 is , the vehicle axle number is Combined with the temperature and vehicle axle data in December 2023, the crack width evolution time-varying model is introduced: the crack widths corresponding to January and December are 0.31mm and 0.34mm; Based on the widths in December and January calculated above, the crack width growth rate can be calculated: ; The time required for the crack width to reach the limit value in each area 7 and area 10 is derived as follows: ; ; According to the above calculation, it takes 55 months, or 4.6 years, for vulnerable area 7 and 50 months, or 4.1 years, for vulnerable area 10 to reach the safety threshold.
