At present, bridge load monitoring mainly includes traffic flow monitoring system and weighing monitoring system.

[0049] In order to enable those skilled in the art to better understand the technical solutions in the present application, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present application, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in the field without creative work should fall within the scope of protection of the present application.

[0050] This application is mainly used in bridge load monitoring scenarios. For details, please refer to Figure 1 , Figure 1 It is a schematic diagram of the application scenarios of various embodiments of the present application. Figure 1 As shown, the bridge deck 10 is installed on the column 20, and an elastic support 30 is provided between the bridge deck 10 and the column 20. When the bridge deck 10 is subjected to a load, the elastic support 30 will undergo elastic or inelastic instantaneous deformation, which will cause the width of the expansion joint 100 between the elastic support 30 and the column 20 to change. Therefore, the instantaneous change in the displacement of the expansion joint 100 can indirectly reflect the change in the bridge load.

[0051] The present application enables bridge maintenance personnel to obtain the load data of the bridge by setting the corresponding millimeter wave radar sensor 200 and target 300 on the elastic support 30 and the column 20, and analyzing the change data of the expansion joint 100 fed back in real time by the millimeter wave radar sensor 200. The arrangement position of the millimeter wave radar sensor 200 and the target 300 can be the position of the elastic support 30 on the bridge that has the largest response to the displacement change of the expansion joint 100 caused by the vehicle load, and the position can be selected based on experiments or bridge maintenance history to improve the monitoring accuracy and precision of the present application.

[0052] It should be noted that the target positions for the two opposite directions of traffic on the bridge are not the same. Therefore, a single target position can realize bridge deck load monitoring in a specific direction, thereby effectively reflecting the weight of vehicles passing in a specific direction and solving the problems existing in load monitoring through weight sensors in the prior art.

[0053] The following is a detailed description of the bridge load monitoring method based on millimeter wave radar in this application. Figure 2 , Figure 2 It is a flow chart of an implementation method of a bridge load monitoring method based on millimeter wave radar in the present application.

[0054] like Figure 2 As shown, the method includes:

[0055] S100, obtaining dynamic change data of expansion joint displacement fed back in real time by a millimeter wave radar sensor.

[0056] The millimeter wave radar sensor has a high sampling rate and can output the dynamic displacement of the expansion joint at a high sampling rate. At the same time, the millimeter wave radar sensor is an electronic wireless connection. Compared with the traditional weight sensor method, it has lower requirements for installation, high reliability, and is not easy to damage.

[0057] In addition, compared with the traditional pull-rope displacement meter for monitoring the displacement of expansion joints, the millimeter-wave radar sensor of the present application is completely different. The sampling rate of the traditional pull-rope displacement meter is very low. It is used to monitor the change trend of the expansion joint caused by factors such as temperature and humidity, so as to provide reference for bridge maintenance personnel, but it cannot observe the instantaneous change of the expansion joint displacement.

[0058] The millimeter wave radar sensor of the present application is used to monitor the instantaneous change of the expansion joint displacement, and the purposes and working methods of the two are completely different.

[0059] The millimeter wave radar sensor provides real-time feedback of the distance between it and the target during operation, that is, the dynamic change data of the expansion joint displacement. This data includes the correlation between the expansion joint displacement of the bridge and time. Figure 3 , Figure 3 It is a schematic diagram of an implementation method of the dynamic change data of expansion joint displacement in the present application.

[0060] like Figure 3 As shown in Figure 3, the displacement of the expansion joint changes with time, which is caused by the passage of heavy vehicles and can represent the flow rate and weight of heavy vehicles passing on the bridge.

[0061] S200, performing baseline correction on the dynamic change data of the expansion joint displacement.

[0062] There are fluctuations and data drift in the change of expansion joint displacement, and there are errors in the baseline of expansion joint displacement at each moment, such as Figure 3 As shown, in order to reduce deviation and improve the accuracy and reliability of data analysis, it is also necessary to perform baseline correction on the dynamic change data of expansion joint displacement.

[0063] Among them, the baseline correction can adopt polynomial fitting, other fitting methods, Mann-Kendall test and other methods commonly used in the art, all of which can achieve the effect of this embodiment and will not be repeated again.

[0064] After baseline correction, the displacement of the expansion joint at each moment is on the same basis and can be applied to the next analysis operation. Figure 3 For example, the dynamic change data of expansion joint displacement after baseline correction is as follows Figure 4 As shown, Figure 4 It is a schematic diagram of an implementation method of the dynamic change data of expansion joint displacement after baseline correction of the present application.

[0065] S300, traversing the instantaneous displacement fluctuation at each moment in the dynamic change data of the expansion joint displacement, extracting the instantaneous displacement fluctuation greater than a first threshold and its corresponding moment, and collecting them into a queue.

[0066] After baseline correction, data related to bridge load, that is, data associated with the passage of heavy vehicles, can be extracted from the dynamic change data of expansion joint displacement.

[0067] Since the instantaneous expansion joint fluctuation amount is proportional to the weight of the passing vehicle, a first threshold value of the instantaneous expansion joint fluctuation amount can be set. When the fluctuation amount is greater than the first threshold value, the passing vehicle is determined to be a heavy vehicle. When the fluctuation amount is less than the first threshold value, it is determined that the expansion joint fluctuation is caused by a light vehicle or detection error, thereby simplifying the data and improving the effectiveness and accuracy of monitoring.

[0068] Among them, the first threshold can be set based on actual needs according to the construction specifications and historical traffic data of the bridge, and the effect of this implementation can be achieved.

[0069] Collecting the extracted instantaneous displacement fluctuations and their corresponding moments into a queue, and converting the original complex change data into point value data, helps to simplify subsequent analysis operations.

[0070] S400: Obtain bridge load information based on the queue.

[0071] Each instantaneous displacement fluctuation in the queue is caused by the passage of heavy vehicles. Since the displacement fluctuation of the expansion joint is positively correlated with the weight of the passing vehicles, the bridge load information can be obtained based on the queue.

[0072] Specifically, in one embodiment, the heavy vehicle traffic flow of the bridge can be obtained based on the number of instantaneous displacement fluctuations in the queue.

[0073] In another embodiment, the load change data of the target position may also be obtained based on the magnitude of the instantaneous displacement fluctuation in the queue.

[0074] The load variation data includes the weight of heavy vehicles passing through the target position of the bridge at each moment.

[0075] The method for obtaining load change data is introduced in detail below.

[0076] In one embodiment, a linear relationship between the displacement fluctuation of the expansion joint and the weight of the passing vehicle, i.e., a mapping relationship, can be constructed for the target position of the target bridge. The mapping relationship can be obtained through preliminary experiments or through simulation methods.

[0077] By traversing the instantaneous displacement fluctuation in the queue and inputting the traversed instantaneous displacement fluctuation at the target time into the mapping relationship, the weight of the heavy vehicle passing the target position at the target time can be obtained.

[0078] Specifically, see Figure 5 , Figure 5 Schematic diagram of an implementation method of the linear relationship between displacement fluctuation and vehicle weight in this application. Figure 5 As shown in the figure, the displacement fluctuation and passing vehicle weight data obtained through previous experiments show that the displacement fluctuation and passing vehicle weight are linearly correlated as a whole. Based on the above data, the linear relationship between the two can be fitted. By bringing the instantaneous displacement fluctuation into the linear relationship, the weight of the passing vehicle can be obtained.

[0079] In another embodiment, a deep learning neural network model may be constructed for the target position of the target bridge, and the model is used to describe the functional relationship between the displacement fluctuation of the expansion joint at the target position and the weight of the passing vehicle.

[0080] By using the instantaneous displacement fluctuation in the queue and inputting the instantaneous displacement fluctuation at the target moment into a pre-trained deep learning neural network model, the weight of the heavy vehicle passing through the target position at the target moment can be obtained.

[0081] Specifically, the training method of the deep learning neural network model may include:

[0082] A sample target set is obtained and divided into a sample training set and a sample verification set, wherein the sample target set includes displacement fluctuations of expansion joints at several target positions marked with weight labels;

[0083] The displacement fluctuation of the expansion joint at the target position in the sample training set is used as the input of the deep learning neural network model, and based on the loss function and weight label, the weight of the deep learning neural network model is updated along the direction of gradient descent until the loss function converges;

[0084] The effectiveness of the deep learning neural network model is tested with a sample validation set to obtain the optimal model parameters.

[0085] Among them, the sample target set can be obtained through preliminary experimental methods or simulation methods.

[0086] In one embodiment, an overweight warning may be performed based on the load change data. Specifically, the method further includes:

[0087] S500: Determine whether there is a heavy vehicle with a weight greater than a second threshold in the load change data.

[0088] If yes, then:

[0089] S600: Send an overweight warning, and record the passing time of a heavy vehicle with a weight greater than a second threshold at the target location.

[0090] It is understandable that when the system determines that the weight of a passing vehicle is greater than the set second threshold, an overweight warning can be sent and the passing time can be recorded, thereby facilitating maintenance personnel to track overweight vehicles.

[0091] Based on the methods of the above-mentioned implementation modes, the dynamic change data of the expansion joint displacement fed back by the millimeter-wave radar sensor in real time can be analyzed to obtain the heavy vehicle traffic flow of the bridge and the weight distribution of the passing vehicles, and realize overweight warning; compared with the traditional load monitoring method, the contactless monitoring method is used to ensure the accuracy and effectiveness of the monitoring data, and improve the service life and accuracy of the monitoring system.

[0092] This application also provides a bridge load monitoring device based on millimeter wave radar, please refer to Figure 6 , Figure 6 It is a structural schematic diagram of an implementation scheme of a device for bridge load monitoring based on millimeter wave radar in the present application.

[0093] The two ends of the target position of the bridge are respectively equipped with millimeter-wave radar sensors and targets corresponding to the positions, such as Figure 6 As shown, the device includes an acquisition module 21, a correction module 22, a data extraction module 23 and an analysis and output module 24.

[0094] The acquisition module 21 is used to obtain the dynamic change data of the expansion joint displacement fed back by the millimeter wave radar sensor in real time;

[0095] The correction module 22 is used to perform baseline correction on the dynamic change data of the expansion joint displacement;

[0096] The data extraction module 23 is used to traverse the instantaneous displacement fluctuation at each moment in the dynamic change data of the expansion joint displacement, and extract the instantaneous displacement fluctuation greater than the first threshold and its corresponding time, and collect them into a queue;

[0097] The analysis output module 24 is used to obtain bridge load information based on the queue.
