Embodiment 1
[0025] A method for monitoring the high-temperature OCT of a thermal barrier coating of an aeroengine, as Figure 1 shown, includes: Collect coating material data, calculate the simulated intensity distribution of light in the material, and determine the validity of the actually collected input signal according to the signal verification and re-collection protocol; Perform noise modeling and data processing on the retained input signal to obtain a true denoised signal; Extract the pore complexity and crack fractal dimension from the denoised signal and calculate the layer health index; Based on the pore complexity, crack fractal dimension, and layer health index, calculate the damage evolution of the coating to obtain a damage field and predict the remaining life; Optimize the OCT scanning strategy according to the predicted remaining life to ensure efficient completion of the scanning task and timely detection of problems.
[0026] The present invention is further configured such that the collected coating material data includes: absorption coefficient , initial light source intensity distribution , temperature , starting position of light , input signal ; Simulation intensity distribution calculation logic: , where is the simulated intensity distribution of light in the material, is the wavelength of light, is the path length of light propagation, is the initial light source intensity distribution. Specifically, the absorption coefficient describes the degree to which light is absorbed during propagation in the material, and it is related to the wavelength of light and the temperature of the material . When the value of the absorption coefficient is large, it means that the material can effectively absorb light; the initial light source intensity distribution describes the light intensity distribution at the light source position. The light source emits light on or near the coating surface, and the intensity distribution varies at different spatial positions; the temperature refers to the temperature of the environment where the coating is located, and the ambient temperature where the coating is located will affect the optical properties; the starting position is usually set as the light source position, which is a coordinate; the simulated intensity distribution represents the intensity change per unit path length during light propagation, aiming to predict the change trend of the light signal at a specific position, predict signal attenuation, reflection, scattering, etc. By comparing the actually collected signal with the simulated intensity distribution, it is determined whether the actually collected signal is a valid signal; represents the light propagation path, which is the path length from the starting position to the current position; is an exponential decay factor that describes the attenuation characteristics of light propagation in the material. As the light propagation path increases, the intensity of light gradually weakens according to the absorption characteristics of the material. The larger the absorption coefficient, the faster the attenuation.
[0027] The present invention is further configured such that the signal verification and re-collection protocol calculation logic: , is a difference metric between the input signal and the simulated intensity distribution, is the input signal; is a norm, is a hyperparameter; Signal verification and resampling protocol decision logic: , where is a set threshold. Specifically, the input signal is based on the actual data collected by the sensor, and invalid data may be collected due to factors such as sensor damage and environmental changes. Therefore, it is necessary to verify the data. If the signal The error between the calculated simulated intensity is not large, which proves that the collected data is credible. If the error between the collected data and the predicted simulated intensity is too large, it proves that the data is invalid; represents the difference between the input signal and the predicted signal, quantifying the deviation between the actual signal and the expected signal. The norm is used to calculate this difference. The common norm is the Euclidean distance, and the hyperparameter represents different "distance measurement methods". Here, the Euclidean distance is used, and is set; The set threshold is an empirical value used to judge the validity of the signal. The specific value is determined according to system requirements or empirical data. If exceeds the set threshold, it indicates that the signal quality is poor and needs to be recollected.
[0028] The present invention is further set to the denoising signal calculation logic: , where is the denoising signal, is the input signal, is the fractional Fourier transform of the input signal, is the transform order, is the norm of the signal , is the regularization coefficient, is the noise, is the smoothing parameter, is the Sobolev space with the smoothing parameter, is the fractional Sobolev norm of the noise. Specifically, the denoising signal is to recover a clearer and more real signal from the signal containing noise; The input signal is the optical signal obtained by OCT monitoring. It is the qualified input signal retained after signal verification and resampling protocol determination, and the numerical data range will vary according to the experimental settings; Denotes the fractional Fourier transform, a transform used in signal processing, which is a generalization of the traditional Fourier transform and can better handle non-stationary signals. is the order of the transform, which varies between 0 and 1. 0 corresponds to the conventional Fourier transform and 1 corresponds to the time-domain signal. The fractional Fourier transform can help process signals with complex noise. is the norm of the signal after transformation, which is used to measure the sparsity or degree of variation of the signal. When the norm corresponds to the Euclidean distance and is commonly used in conventional signal analysis; the regularization coefficient is used to control the balance between the two terms in the objective function and is selected by methods such as cross-validation of the numerical value; the fractional Sobolev norm of the noise measures the smoothness of the noise in a certain space, taking into account the local smoothness of the noise. The larger the value, the less smooth the noise. The Sobolev space is a class of function spaces used to handle the "derivative information" of signals and is commonly used in signal processing and partial differential equations.
[0029] The present invention is further set as the pore complexity calculation logic: , where is the pore complexity, is the pore boundary length, is the total pore boundary length, is the number of pores; the crack fractal dimension calculation logic: , where is the crack fractal dimension, is the number of grids required to cover the crack, , are two grid sizes. Specifically, the complexity of the pores reflects the complexity of the pore morphology in the material. The calculation method evaluates through the length distribution of the pore boundaries. The more complex the boundary, the higher the pore complexity. The more uneven the pore boundary length, the more complex the pore morphology; the pore boundary length represents the boundary length of the th pore, which refers to the length of the outer contour of the pore and is obtained through image analysis; the total pore boundary length represents the sum of the boundary lengths of all pores, which is used to standardize the boundary length of each pore to ensure that the calculated pore complexity is relative. The total boundary length is the sum of the boundary lengths of all pores and is obtained by summing all ; the number of pores represents the number of pores existing in the material and is counted through the connected region analysis method in image processing; the fractal dimension of the crack It is used to quantify the complexity of crack morphology. The fractal dimension is calculated by the number of grids required to cover the crack at different scales, reflecting the self-similar characteristics of the crack morphology. The stronger the self-similarity, the larger the fractal dimension; and are respectively and the number of grids required to cover the crack at the scales of and which are used to represent how many grids are needed to completely cover the contour of the crack at a given scale. The higher the complexity of the crack, the more grids are required to cover it; and are usually taken as
[0030] The present invention is further set as the calculation logic of the layer health index: wherein is the layer health index, and are control parameters, and are tiny constants. Specifically, the layer health index is a comprehensive index that reflects the damage degree of the material at the microscopic level and evaluates the health state of the material by considering the pore complexity and the crack fractal dimension. The value of the layer health index ranges between 0 and 1. Being close to 1 indicates that the material is in a healthy state, and being close to 0 indicates that the material is severely damaged or about to fail; and are two control parameters used to adjust the influence of the pore complexity and the crack fractal dimension in the calculation. By adjusting these two parameters, the weights of these two factors in the health index can be flexibly controlled, and their values are between and ; The tiny constants and are very tiny constants used to avoid division by zero. The core idea of the formula is to combine the pore complexity and the crack fractal dimension , and apply a weighted logarithmic model, and finally use the sigmoid function to uniformly transform the influence of the two into a health index ranging from 0 to 1.
[0031] The present invention is further set as the calculation logic of the damage field: wherein is the damage field, is the diffusion coefficient related to the pore complexity, is the convergence coefficient related to the crack fractal dimension, is the pore complexity, is the crack fractal dimension, is the Laplace operator, is the influence coefficient related to the layer health index. Specifically, the damage field of the coating , represents the damage degree of the coating at the position and time , the value is , represents no damage, represents complete damage; the diffusion coefficient related to pore complexity represents the influence of pores on damage propagation, and its value range is , the larger the value, the greater the influence of pores on damage propagation; the convergence coefficient related to crack fractal dimension represents the influence of crack distribution on damage stability, and its value range is , the larger the value, the stronger the enhancement effect of crack propagation on damage; the Laplace operator , represents the diffusion effect at the spatial position, and simulates the propagation of coating damage; represents the non - linear term of damage evolution. When the damage value approaches , the effect of this term decreases; the influence coefficient related to the layer health index represents the influence degree of health score on damage evolution, and its value range is , the larger the value, the stronger the correction effect of health score on damage evolution; represents the influence of pore complexity on the diffusion of coating damage field. The greater the complexity of pores, the easier the damage diffusion of the coating, resulting in an accelerated damage propagation speed. The Laplace operator simulates the diffusion process of damage in space; represents the influence of crack fractal dimension on damage field convergence. When damage begins to develop, the presence of cracks will exacerbate damage propagation, especially in areas with a higher crack fractal dimension. The non - linear term ensures that when the damage value approaches 1, the effect of cracks will gradually decrease; represents the correction effect of health score on the evolution of coating damage field. When the coating is in a relatively healthy state, the damage propagation will be inhibited. This term can correct the damage evolution process and slow down the exacerbation of damage, especially when the health score of the coating is relatively high.
[0032] The present invention is further set as the remaining life calculation logic: , where is the remaining life, is the attenuation factor, is the initial time, is the maximum usage time. Specifically, the remaining life represents the current time point to the maximum usage time The remaining service life of the coating between , which indicates the remaining effective time of the coating from the current time point to the maximum usage time. As the damage increases, the remaining life gradually decreases. If the coating is completely healthy, the remaining life is the maximum usage time; the attenuation factor Indicates the degree of influence of coating damage on the remaining life, reflecting the aggravation rate of coating damage, and the value range is The larger the value, the greater the impact of coating damage on the remaining life. Damage accelerates the consumption of coating life. Maximum service life Indicates the maximum design service life of the coating, with different standard values set according to different coating materials; represents an exponential function, which simulates the gradual attenuation of the coating life due to damage. As the damage increases, the value of the exponential function approaches 0, indicating a decrease in the remaining life; Indicates the integration of the time interval, indicating that the coating To the maximum usage time The damage evolution process between the two time periods is analyzed, and the overall remaining life of the coating is obtained by weighting the damage contribution of each time period.
[0033] The present invention is further configured such that the scanning strategy optimizes the calculation logic: ,in, is the scanning density, is a very small constant, To adjust the constant; adjust the scanning strategy according to the scanning density to minimize the total scanning time while ensuring that the critical areas of the coating are adequately inspected. Indicates at location and time The intensity or density of scanning when scanning. The scanning density determines the scanning frequency of the scanning device in a specific area. The higher the density, the higher the scanning accuracy and the more areas covered. The higher the scanning density, the more severe the coating damage areas need to be scanned more frequently to ensure the accuracy of the detection. At the same time, the areas with shorter remaining life also need to increase the scanning frequency. Minimum constant To avoid damage to the field If the score is 0, the value is ; Adjustment constant Used to adjust the scale of the scan density value. The value range is , a smaller value will result in a lower scanning density, while a larger value will increase the scanning frequency; It shows the relationship between scanning density and coating damage degree and remaining life.
