Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of physical simulation deformation analysis of structures, and more specifically, to a method for analyzing fault activity and deformation propagation characteristics, an electronic device, and a medium. Background Art

[0002] The physical simulation technology of structures is an effective means to study the deformation development process and the evolution of structural deformation patterns under the influence of complex geological factors. Among them, the dynamic monitoring of the deformation process is the key basis for accurately depicting strain propagation and exploring deformation control factors.

[0003] Since the physical simulation technology was introduced into the field of structural deformation analysis, the improvement of experimental equipment and the development of geological basic theories have jointly promoted the monitoring of the deformation process to achieve great development in the direction of quantification and refinement. In the early kinematic analysis process of structural deformation, it mainly relied on manually laying or drawing reference marks, and was achieved by analyzing the geometric and kinematic characteristics of the reference marks before and after deformation. The development of computer technology has broken through the limitations of low efficiency, low accuracy, and low resolution in manual strain identification. The image post-processing technology based on Particle Image Velocimetry (PIV) can greatly improve the resolution of physical quantities such as the displacement field and strain field of imaging particles in the structural deformation domain by accurately calculating and analyzing the continuous monitoring images of the dynamic deformation process, making it possible to conduct a fine quantitative analysis of the formation and evolution of structural deformation, and it was first successfully applied to the study of the geometric and kinematic characteristics of the development process of thrust belts.

[0004] This method can accurately obtain the instantaneous apparent velocity (V 视 ) of imaging particles in the deformation domain of the experimental model by processing and calculating the photos of the continuous deformation process:

[0005] V 视 = limΔs / Δt

[0006] For a uniformly layered extrusion model, there is no obvious difference in the kinematic characteristics in the direction perpendicular to the extrusion direction. Therefore, the instantaneous apparent velocity (V 视 ) of the model plane can be approximated as the shortening velocity (U) of the model along the extrusion direction, and by calculating the velocity change gradient along the extrusion direction, the linear strain of the model along the extrusion direction can be obtained:

[0007] E xx = dU / dX = [U (i,j+1) - U (i,j-1) / [X (i,j+1) - X (i,j-1)

[0008] ​Finally, based on the above data, maps can be generated to obtain the vector map, contour map of the instantaneous velocity field during the deformation process, and the distribution map of linear strain along the horizontal direction, so as to visually display the strain concentration and deformation propagation during the extrusion tectonic deformation process.

[0009] Particle Image Velocimetry (PIV) generates vector maps and contour maps of the displacement field, velocity field, and derived strain field of imaging particles within the concerned tectonic deformation domain through the analysis and processing of a large number of real-time monitoring photos during the dynamic experimental process. It can visually describe the strain propagation and concentration, and the formation and development of deformation during the tectonic deformation process, thus providing an intuitive quantitative basis for the accurate analysis of the kinematic process and dynamic mechanism of tectonic evolution. However, based on the vector maps and contour maps of the physical parameters characterizing the deformation movement process obtained from the processed data, affected by the setting of the color scale value range of the displayed image, it is difficult to take into account both the overall distribution of the global motion state and the changes in the local motion state. As a result, a large amount of data obtained from the motion process analysis cannot be fully utilized, and the kinematic information of the tectonic process submerged therein is difficult to be fully excavated, affecting the accurate characterization of the deformation process and restricting the accurate analysis of the formation, development, and propagation of tectonic deformation.

[0098] Specifically, Particle Image Velocimetry (PIV) generates vector maps, contour maps of the displacement field, velocity field, and derived strain field of imaging particles within the deformation domain of interest through the analysis and processing of a large number of real-time monitoring photos during the dynamic experiment process. It can visually describe the expansion and concentration of strain, as well as the formation and development of deformation during the tectonic deformation process, thereby providing an intuitive quantitative basis for the accurate analysis of the kinematic process and dynamic mechanism of tectonic evolution. However, based on the vector maps and contour maps of the physical parameters characterizing the deformation movement process obtained from the processed data, affected by the setting of the color scale value range of the displayed image, it is difficult to take into account both the overall distribution of the global motion state and the changes in the local motion state. As a result, a large amount of data obtained from the motion process analysis cannot be fully utilized, and the kinematic information of the tectonic process submerged therein is difficult to be fully mined, affecting the accurate characterization of the deformation process and limiting the accurate analysis of the formation, development, and expansion of tectonic deformation. Directly carrying out the analysis of the PIV source data during the extrusion deformation experiment process is conducive to analyzing the overall dynamic development trend and local detailed deformation characteristics of the deformation process, thereby improving the accuracy of the identification of the activity of reverse faults and the analysis of deformation expansion during the tectonic deformation process.

[0101] Based on the experimental model, real-time deformation process image acquisition within the tectonic deformation domain is carried out for its top surface and side surfaces, and after the completion, the preparation of the original data for post-processing analysis is carried out, specifically including:

[0102] Place standard scales on the top surface and side edges of the model respectively to facilitate the correction of the geometric dimensions of the images collected later. Fix digital cameras directly above the top surface of the model and in front of the profile respectively, and ensure that the monitored deformation area is completely distributed within the viewfinder. Adjust the focal length so that the quartz sand particles can be clearly identified. Set the working mode of the digital camera to the continuous shooting mode. The shooting interval and the duration of shooting refer to the extrusion rate and the shortening amount of the model. It is preferred that the interval between two consecutive shots corresponds to a 1-mm shortening amount of the model. According to the experimental scheme, set the control parameters of the experimental operation system, start the experiment, and at the same time turn on the digital camera to monitor the real-time process of the model deformation experiment until the experiment ends. Based on the Photoshop image processing software, batch process the top surface photos and side photos during the experiment, crop the information unrelated to the background, correct the lens distortion, adjust the image position, and consecutively name the processed pictures in sequence in the format of "model name (English)-photo sequence (number)". For the deformation process of the experimental model, divide the photo sequence of the top surface of the model into continuous deformation image subsequences at equal interval shortening amounts. It is preferred that the division interval is 1 cm, and use the CorelDRAW drawing software to draw calculation masks for the images of each subsequence, preferably the images at the middle position of each subsequence.

[0118] Using a tectonic physical simulation experimental model, a physical simulation experiment of extrusion tectonic deformation is carried out, specifically including:

[0119] Based on the similarity principle, the actual geological model is scaled down proportionally to a laboratory physical model; based on the Coulomb failure criterion and the Newtonian fluid rheological equation, dry quartz sand grains and silica gel are selected to simulate brittle fractured rock layers and plastic rheological rock layers respectively, and the physical model is laid in layers in the experimental sand box; based on the requirement that the tectonic deformation pattern can be clearly displayed in the model section, different colors of the same dry quartz grain material are laid in interlayers for the brittle deformation layer, and the topmost deformation layer is a white quartz sand layer; based on the requirement that the developed fault traces can be clearly identified on the top surface of the model, a very thin layer of colored quartz sand is laid on top of the white quartz sand layer on the top of the model, just enough to slightly cover the underlying white quartz sand layer.

[0120] Based on the experimental model, real-time deformation process image acquisition is carried out for its top surface and side surfaces, and after the acquisition is completed, the preparation of the original data for post-processing analysis is completed, specifically including:

[0121] Place standard scales on the top surface and the edge of the side surface of the model respectively to facilitate the correction of the geometric dimensions of the images collected later. Fix digital cameras directly above the top surface of the model and in front of the profile respectively, and ensure that the monitored deformation area is completely distributed within the viewfinder. Adjust the focal length so that the quartz sand particles can be clearly identified. Set the working mode of the digital camera to the continuous shooting mode. The shooting interval and the shooting duration refer to the extrusion rate and the shortening amount of the model. It is preferred that the interval between two consecutive shootings corresponds to a 1-mm shortening amount of the model. According to the experimental scheme, set the control parameters of the experimental operating system, start the experiment, and at the same time turn on the digital camera to monitor the real-time process of the model deformation experiment until the experiment ends. Based on the Photoshop image processing software, batch process the top surface photos and side photos during the experiment, crop the irrelevant background information, correct the lens distortion, adjust the image position, and consecutively name the processed pictures in sequence in the format of "model name (English)-photo sequence (number)". For the deformation process of the experimental model, divide the photo sequence of the top surface of the model into continuous deformed image subsequences at equal intervals of shortening amount. It is preferred that the division interval is 1 cm, and use the CorelDRAW drawing software to draw calculation masks for the images of each subsequence. It is preferred to use the image at the middle position of each subsequence.

[0122] Based on the images collected during the experiment, conduct a preliminary analysis of the structural deformation evolution process and calculate and process the instantaneous velocity field, specifically including:

[0123] For the deformation process of the experimental model, conduct structural interpretations on the profile images and top surface images of the model respectively, obtain the structural interpretation scheme for the model deformation process, determine the fault development positions, edit the fault numbers, and initially clarify the deformation development process and the spatio-temporal expansion sequence. Refer to the calculation masks of each subsequence of the top surface image of the model, and use the MicroVec processing software to conduct calculation and analysis on each subsequence of the top surface image of the experimental model to obtain the source files of the instantaneous velocity field corresponding to each evolution stage of the images during the experiment.

[0124] Based on the preliminary structural interpretation scheme and the velocity field evolution characteristics during the experiment, draw the instantaneous velocity profile and analyze the fault activity and deformation expansion characteristics, specifically including:

[0125] Construct a preliminary analysis result of the deformation evolution stage according to the experimental process, and determine the subsequence of the model top surface images corresponding to different activity stages of each fault; according to the subsequence of the model top surface images corresponding to different activity stages of the fault, use TecPlot software to process and analyze the corresponding instantaneous velocity field source file to obtain the instantaneous velocity field cloud atlas and the instantaneous horizontal line strain field cloud atlas of the corresponding deformation evolution stage; according to the instantaneous velocity field and the instantaneous horizontal line strain field cloud atlas of the model top surface deformation evolution stage, accurately locate the shortening amount corresponding to the development and strong activity moments of each fault, that is, the fault activity characteristic point; according to the fault activity characteristic points in the model deformation process, extract the position coordinate information and the instantaneous velocity information in the instantaneous velocity field source file at the corresponding moment; according to the position coordinate information and the instantaneous velocity information corresponding to the fault activity characteristic points in the model deformation process, draw the instantaneous velocity profile of the model structure deformation at that moment, and analyze the expansion characteristics of the structure deformation during the extrusion process; according to the fault activity characteristic points in the model deformation process, select the profile image of the model at the corresponding moment, carry out fine structure interpretation, determine the deformation pattern of the extrusion structure, number it according to the fault development time sequence, and adjust the length of the model profile image to make it consistent with the length of the model instantaneous velocity profile; adjust the model instantaneous velocity profile and the structure interpretation profile to align their two ends, then the projection of the intersection of the fault trace line and the model topographic line on the structure interpretation profile image on the velocity profile indicates the fault activity of the corresponding fault at that moment; judge the activity characteristics of the corresponding fault according to the fault points on the model instantaneous velocity profile, and identify the location of the fault and the different extrusion deformation stages in the adjacent area: compaction stage, germination stage, strong activity stage and healing stage.

[0126] Among them, accurately locating the shortening amount corresponding to the development and strong activity moments of each fault, that is, the fault activity characteristic point, specifically includes:

[0127] According to the different activity stages of each fault during the development process of the model structure deformation, select the corresponding instantaneous velocity field and the instantaneous horizontal line strain field cloud atlas; according to the instantaneous velocity field and the instantaneous horizontal line strain field cloud atlas corresponding to different activity stages of the fault, adjust the display color scale of the motion field image, and pick up the instantaneous velocity field source file that can best reflect the velocity field characteristics and the horizontal line strain field characteristics of different activity stages of the fault. The corresponding deformation moment is the fault activity characteristic point in the model deformation process.

[0128] Among them, extracting the position coordinate information and the instantaneous velocity information in the instantaneous velocity field source file at the corresponding moment specifically includes:

[0129] Along the extrusion direction, optimize the instantaneous velocity field information of the model central profile to eliminate the boundary effect; combine the shortening amount of the deformation moment corresponding to the fault activity stage and the calculation mask selected during the processing process, and cut off the original data outside the model to make the distribution range of the selected instantaneous velocity field data consistent with the model size at that moment.

[0130] Among them, the instantaneous velocity profile of the model structure deformation at this moment is drawn to analyze the characteristics of the structure deformation expansion during the extrusion process, specifically including:

[0131] According to the structural evolution stages divided by the model, the instantaneous velocity profiles corresponding to the deformation moments of the characteristic points of each fault activity are drawn in sequence; according to the initial length of the model and the extrusion deformation velocity set in the simulation experiment, an orthogonal coordinate system is drawn, with the abscissa being the spatial position and the ordinate being the horizontal displacement velocity; according to the orthogonal coordinate system, the instantaneous velocity profiles corresponding to each characteristic point are projected onto the coordinate system in different colors in sequence, so that the end of the instantaneous velocity profile falls on the corresponding model distal boundary point on the abscissa; according to the change trend of the projection of the instantaneous velocity profiles corresponding to each characteristic point on the coordinate system, it is possible to judge the development and activity of the same fault and the deformation expansion of the entire extrusion tectonic belt as the shortening amount increases.
