Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention belongs to the field of bridge structure health monitoring, and in particular relates to a vehicle-bridge parameter synchronous inversion identification method based on a deep time series model. Background Art
[0002] In the field of bridge engineering, with the continuous increase in traffic volume and the extension of bridge service life, real-time and accurate health monitoring of bridge structures is particularly important. Traditional monitoring methods often focus on the static analysis of a single parameter, which makes it difficult to fully capture the dynamic response of bridge structures under vehicle loads and their complex interactions with vehicle parameters.
[0003] Traditional vehicle-bridge interaction analysis methods usually rely on prior knowledge of parameters such as vehicle speed, number of axles, and wheelbase. The acquisition of these parameters often relies on complex vehicle detection systems or manual measurements, which is not only costly but also inefficient. In addition, existing moving force identification (MFI) technologies are mostly based on time domain, frequency domain or interpretive methods. These methods are affected to varying degrees by the dynamic characteristics of bridge structures, the diversity of vehicle types, and environmental factors (such as road roughness), which limits their accuracy and robustness in practical applications. In recent years, with the rapid development of deep learning technology, especially its outstanding performance in time series analysis and pattern recognition, it has provided new ideas for the synchronous inversion identification of vehicle-bridge parameters. Deep neural networks, with their powerful nonlinear mapping capabilities and automatic feature extraction capabilities, have shown great potential in processing dynamic response data of complex systems. However, most of the existing deep learning-based MFI methods have failed to effectively solve the problem of high-precision identification in the absence of detailed vehicle parameters (such as vehicle speed and axle configuration).
[0004] In the field of bridge engineering, structural damage state detection is also one of the key technologies to ensure the safe operation of bridges. Traditional bridge damage detection methods mostly rely on regular manual inspections or model-based damage identification technologies, which have limitations such as long detection cycles, high costs, susceptibility to human factors, and large model errors. Especially when the bridge structure is complex and the sensors are sparsely deployed, the accuracy and efficiency of traditional methods often cannot meet actual needs. In recent years, with the rapid development of deep learning technology, especially its wide application in the field of time series analysis, models based on deep neural networks have shown great potential in structural health monitoring. In particular, the Transformer model has achieved great success in the fields of natural language processing and computer vision, and its powerful sequence modeling capabilities have provided new ideas for the processing of time series data. However, directly applying the Transformer model to the field of structural health monitoring still faces many challenges, such as high model complexity, large amount of computation, and insufficient ability to capture local features. In order to overcome the above challenges, researchers proposed an improved model based on PatchTST (Patch-based Time Series Transformer), which reduces the length of the input sequence by introducing a patch mechanism and emphasizes local semantic information, thereby reducing the amount of computation while ensuring model performance. This innovation provides a new solution for the processing of time series data and a new idea for bridge structural health monitoring. However, most of the existing deep learning-based bridge damage detection methods rely on a large amount of labeled data, which is often difficult to achieve in practical applications.
