[0029] In this embodiment, a method for determining the thickness of a target object is provided, which is applied to the above-mentioned detection device. Figure 2 is a flow chart of a method for determining the thickness of a target object according to an embodiment of the present application. Figure 2 As shown, the process includes the following steps:
[0030] Step S202, determining the speed of sound in water of ultrasonic waves emitted by a detection device according to environmental parameters in water, wherein the detection device is used to detect the thickness of the underwater steel structure;
[0031] Step S204: Correcting the amplitude of the first reflected signal measured by the ultrasonic wave according to a surface correction coefficient of the underwater steel structure to obtain a second reflected signal amplitude, wherein the surface correction coefficient is used to quantify the influence of the surface state of the underwater steel structure on the propagation of the ultrasonic wave;
[0032] Step S206: determining the thickness of the underwater steel structure according to the sound velocity and the amplitude of the second reflected signal.
[0033] Through the above steps, the speed of sound in water emitted by a detection device used to detect the thickness of an underwater steel structure is determined based on environmental parameters in the water. The detection device is used to detect the thickness of an underwater steel structure. The amplitude of the first reflected signal measured by the ultrasonic wave is corrected based on a surface correction factor of the underwater steel structure to obtain a second reflected signal amplitude. The surface correction factor is used to quantify the effect of the surface condition of the underwater steel structure on the propagation of the ultrasonic wave. The thickness of the underwater steel structure is determined based on the speed of sound and the second reflected signal amplitude. This solves the problem in related technologies where the thickness of an underwater steel structure is determined solely by a fixed speed of sound, resulting in inaccurate detection data.
[0034] In an exemplary embodiment, determining the sound velocity of the ultrasonic wave emitted by the detection device in water according to the environmental parameters in the water includes: determining the sound velocity v according to the following formula: v = 1449.2 + 4.6T - 0.055T 2 +0.00029T 3 +(1.34-0.01T)(S-35)+0.016D, wherein T is the water temperature, S is the salinity of the water, and D is the depth of the water. The environmental parameters include: the water temperature, the salinity, and the depth.
[0035] In underwater ultrasonic testing, the accuracy of sound velocity is crucial for measuring the thickness of underwater steel structures, as it directly influences the calculation of ultrasonic wave propagation time, which in turn affects the accuracy of thickness measurements. Underwater, the sound velocity increases with increasing water temperature. This is because rising temperature reduces water density and increases its rigidity, thereby accelerating the propagation of sound waves. Increased salinity also increases the sound velocity. The impact of changes in seawater salt content on sound velocity cannot be ignored, especially when salinity varies significantly across different sea areas or seasons. Salinity correction can improve testing accuracy. Water depth is related to pressure; increased depth means increased pressure. Changes in pressure also affect sound velocity, with increased pressure generally leading to faster sound velocity. Therefore, depth is equally important in adjusting sound velocity parameters.
[0036] In an exemplary embodiment, before correcting the first reflected signal amplitude of the ultrasonic measurement according to the surface correction coefficient of the underwater steel structure to obtain the second reflected signal amplitude, the method further includes: determining the surface correction coefficient C according to the following formula surf : Among them, C surf The value range of is [0, 1], β is used to characterize the attenuation degree of the surface material of the underwater steel structure to the ultrasonic wave during the propagation process, t surf is the thickness of the surface material of the underwater steel structure.
[0037] This example uses exponential calculations to simulate the attenuation of ultrasonic signals passing through surface materials. This is because the attenuation of ultrasonic signal intensity is cumulative when passing through layers of material of varying thickness, and this attenuation is dependent on the material's attenuation characteristics. The use of exponential calculations effectively reflects this cumulative attenuation characteristic.
[0038] For example, when an ultrasonic signal passes through a surface material, the attenuation of the signal intensity will increase with the thickness of the surface material. surf If the attenuation coefficient β is small, then even if the thickness of the surface material t surf Larger, the final calculated surface correction coefficient C surf It may also be relatively large, which means that the influence of signal attenuation is not significant and the correction amount of the detection result is small. On the contrary, if the attenuation coefficient β is large, even if the thickness of the surface material t surf Small, surface correction coefficient C surf The value of may also decrease significantly, indicating that a larger correction amount is needed to compensate for the attenuation of the signal.
[0039] In this way, the surface correction coefficient can be dynamically adjusted according to the specific surface conditions (material type, thickness and attenuation characteristics), ensuring that the ultrasonic testing results can accurately reflect the true thickness of the underwater steel structure without being affected by the surface material conditions.
[0040] In an exemplary embodiment, the first reflected signal amplitude measured by the ultrasonic wave is corrected according to the surface correction coefficient of the underwater steel structure to obtain the second reflected signal amplitude, including: determining the second reflected signal amplitude A according to the following formula corr :A corr =A meas ·C surf , where A meas is the amplitude of the first reflected signal, C surf is the surface correction coefficient.
[0041] The first reflected signal amplitude A measIt is the amplitude of the signal directly reflected from the surface of the underwater steel structure received by the ultrasonic probe. In ultrasonic testing, the probe transmits sound waves, which are reflected when they encounter the surface of the structure. The intensity of the reflected sound wave signal (i.e., amplitude) received by the probe reflects the interaction between the sound wave and the material surface. However, the amplitude of the first reflected signal A directly measured meas It will be affected by the attenuation of the surface material, resulting in a decrease in signal strength, thus affecting the accuracy of thickness detection.
[0042] Surface correction factor C surf It is a value between 0 and 1, which is used to quantify the influence of the surface material of underwater steel structure on the attenuation of ultrasonic signal. surf A value close to 1 indicates that the surface material has a small attenuation effect on the ultrasonic signal; and a smaller C surf A value close to 0 indicates that the surface condition has caused significant attenuation of the ultrasonic signal, and correction is needed to restore the true intensity of the ultrasonic signal.
[0043] The first reflected signal amplitude A meas and surface correction factor C surf Multiplying by, we can get the corrected second reflected signal amplitude A corr This calculation process is essentially to adjust the amplitude of the first reflected signal to compensate for the signal attenuation caused by the surface state. surf The value of is close to 1, then A corr and A meas The difference will be small, indicating that no excessive correction is needed; but if C surf The value of is small, then A corr Relative to A meas There will be a significant improvement to restore the true strength of the ultrasonic signal. Through the above correction process, the signal attenuation caused by the surface state of the underwater steel structure can be effectively eliminated or reduced in ultrasonic testing, so that the amplitude of the second reflected signal A corr It more accurately represents the intrinsic interaction between ultrasound and structural materials without being disturbed by additional surface factors.
[0044] In an exemplary embodiment, before determining the thickness of the underwater steel structure based on the sound speed and the second reflected signal amplitude, the method further includes: determining an attenuation correction amount of the reflected signal received by the detection device based on the first reflected signal amplitude and the second reflected signal amplitude, wherein the attenuation correction amount is used to characterize the signal intensity deviation of the ultrasonic wave during the propagation process.
[0045] In an exemplary embodiment, determining the attenuation correction amount of the reflection signal received by the detection device according to the first reflection signal amplitude and the second reflection signal amplitude includes: determining the attenuation correction amount δ (A) according to the following formula corr ): Among them, A meas is the amplitude of the first reflected signal, A corr is the amplitude of the second reflected signal, and α is the attenuation coefficient of the ultrasonic wave.
[0046] In this embodiment The A part reflects the relative change of the ultrasonic signal amplitude, that is, the difference in signal strength before and after correction. Multiplying this part by the ultrasonic attenuation coefficient α, the attenuation correction amount related to the surface state and material properties can be obtained. meas and A corr When the difference between δ(A corr ) will also increase accordingly, indicating that a larger correction amount is required to restore the true strength of the signal.
[0047] In an exemplary embodiment, determining the thickness of the underwater steel structure according to the sound velocity and the amplitude of the second reflected signal includes: determining the thickness d of the underwater steel structure according to the following formula: final : Wherein, v is the speed of sound, T meas is the round trip propagation time of the ultrasonic wave, δ(A corr ) is the attenuation correction amount.
[0048] According to the principle of ultrasonic testing, the ultrasonic wave needs to reach the surface of the structure first and then be reflected back from the surface, so the round-trip propagation time of the ultrasonic wave is T meas After multiplying by the speed of sound v, it needs to be divided by 2 to get the one-way propagation distance. corr ) is subtracted from the above calculation because in ultrasonic testing, the attenuation of ultrasonic signal intensity will cause the calculated thickness d final Inaccurate, attenuation correction δ(A corr ) is used to compensate for this error so that the final calculated thickness d final Closer to the true value.
[0049] In order to better understand the process of the above-mentioned method for determining the thickness of the target object, the above-mentioned method for determining the thickness of the target object is described below in combination with an optional embodiment, but is not used to limit the technical solution of the embodiment of the present application.
[0050] Figure 3 is a schematic diagram of a method for determining the thickness of a target object according to an embodiment of the present application, such as Figure 3As shown, specifically including the following:
[0051] External calibration utilizes CTD sensors to monitor key underwater environmental parameters such as temperature, salinity, and depth in real time. Based on these parameters, the velocity of ultrasound waves in water is determined. The velocity of ultrasound waves is crucial for calculating the propagation time from emission to reception, and the accuracy of this propagation time is directly related to the precision of the measured thickness of underwater steel structures. Therefore, external calibration allows the testing equipment to dynamically adjust the preset ultrasonic propagation velocity value to more closely reflect actual conditions, ensuring more accurate propagation time measurements and enhancing the reliability of thickness measurements.
[0052] Internal correction focuses on the surface conditions of underwater steel structures, such as rust, sediments and coatings. These factors will lead to a decrease in signal strength during ultrasonic testing, that is, the attenuation of signal amplitude, and scattering of signal direction, which in turn affects the accuracy of the reflected signal and poses a challenge to the accuracy of thickness measurement of underwater steel structures. In order to solve this problem, internal correction uses a structural health monitoring system (SHM) to obtain real-time status information on the surface of the test object. The SHM system can identify and quantify the degree of surface rust, sediment thickness, and coating condition. By analyzing this information, the detection equipment can determine the surface correction coefficient of the underwater steel structure. Among them, the surface correction coefficient reflects the specific impact of the surface condition of the underwater steel structure on the amplitude of the ultrasonic signal.
[0053] The thickness of the underwater steel structure is determined according to the sound velocity obtained by external correction and the amplitude of the second reflected signal obtained by internal correction.
[0054] Through the description of the above implementation methods, those skilled in the art can clearly understand that the method according to the above embodiment can be implemented by means of software plus the necessary general hardware platform, and of course it can also be implemented by hardware, but in many cases the former is a better implementation method. Based on this understanding, the technical solution of the present application, or the part that contributes to the prior art, can be embodied in the form of a software product, which is stored in a storage medium (such as ROM / RAM, magnetic disk, optical disk), and includes a number of instructions for enabling a terminal device (which can be a mobile phone, computer, server, or network device, etc.) to execute the methods of each embodiment of the present application.
