Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of tunnel boring equipment, and particularly to an intelligent adjustment system and method for the soil penetration force of a shield machine. Background Art

[0002] The construction of a shield machine is an advanced underground tunnel construction method. The construction of a shield machine refers to the method of using a shield machine to bore underground, and at the same time, under the protection of the shield, excavation and lining operations are safely carried out inside the machine to construct a tunnel. The working principle of a shield machine is to excavate soil while advancing along the axis of the tunnel through a cylindrical component (shield). The construction process of a shield machine generally includes links such as initial operation preparation, shield starting and arriving, shield tunneling, lining assembly, grouting, and waterproofing.

[0003] Traditional shield machine construction has many limitations. To solve these problems, modern researchers and engineers have begun to explore innovative technical means. Traditional shield machine construction mainly relies on manual experience and judgment, lacking real-time monitoring and comprehensive analysis of multi-dimensional information such as soil properties, geological conditions, and the working state of the shield machine. This results in limited construction efficiency, high safety risks, and difficulty in ensuring construction accuracy and efficiency.

[0004] To overcome these limitations, researchers and engineers have begun to combine a variety of sensors with advanced artificial intelligence algorithms to develop intelligent systems capable of comprehensively analyzing multi-dimensional information. These intelligent systems can, through integrated devices such as ground penetrating radar, accelerometers, and pressure sensors, real-time monitor key indicators such as the hardness, water content, and stress distribution of the soil layer, as well as important data such as the working state of the shield machine.

[0005] The patent application with the publication number CN110185461A discloses a shield machine for real-time detecting tunnel geological conditions. This shield machine can detect the tunnel geological conditions in real time, and its components include: the shield machine main body, which is responsible for carrying out the excavation work of the tunnel; the detection system, which is specifically used for detecting the geological conditions of the tunnel; and the data transmission system, which undertakes the task of sending the detected data. This shield machine has achieved a multi-dimensional improvement in geological condition detection by integrating an electro-magnetic wave pulse detection device, an induced polarization detection device, and a seismic wave detection device, thus significantly improving the accuracy of detection. However, although these technologies have improved the construction efficiency and accuracy to a certain extent, they lack the ability of intelligent decision-making support and automatic adjustment of construction parameters.

[0006] Therefore, there is an urgent need for an intelligent system that can comprehensively analyze multi-dimensional information, make intelligent decisions based on the collected data, and automatically adjust construction parameters. Such an intelligent system can not only significantly improve construction efficiency and accuracy, reduce safety risks, but also bring about a revolution in the field of shield machine construction.

[0057] An intelligent adjustment system for the soil penetration force of a shield machine includes:

[0058] High-precision multi-dimensional sensing module, including piezoelectric soil hardness sensors (0 - 100 MPa, accuracy 0.01 MPa) distributed in a circular array, silicon piezoresistive pore water pressure sensors (0 - 10 MPa, accuracy 0.05 kPa), fiber Bragg grating in-situ stress sensors (accuracy 0.1 MPa), and platinum resistance temperature sensors (-40°C to 120°C, accuracy 0.1°C). The sensor array is evenly distributed in a circular shape around the cutter head of the shield machine, with a sensor spacing of 150 mm and an IP68 protection level;

[0060] Intelligent decision-making module, integrating a five-layer convolutional neural network (input layer → three convolutional layers → fully connected layer → output layer), real-time fuses the sensing data and network analysis results, and generates dynamic instructions for the cutter head rotation speed (0 - 10 rpm), propulsion speed (0 - 100 mm / min), and grouting pressure (0 - 2 MPa).

[0061] Figure 1 It is the overall framework diagram for the intelligent adjustment of the soil penetration force of the shield machine. In this embodiment, a high-precision multi-dimensional sensing module is adopted. By integrating a variety of high-precision sensors distributed in a circular array, real-time monitoring of multi-dimensional parameters such as soil hardness, pore water pressure, in-situ stress, and temperature in the working environment of the shield machine is realized. The high precision and circular uniform distribution of the sensors ensure the accuracy and comprehensiveness of the data, providing strong support for the safe and efficient operation of the shield machine.

[0062] The risk level module uses the Gaussian kernel function and the Louvain algorithm, which can accurately calculate the similarity between segment rings and divide the performance community, output the geological risk level and corresponding coordinates, providing a scientific basis for the construction planning and risk control of the shield machine.

[0063] The intelligent decision-making module, through integrating a five-layer convolutional neural network, real-time fuses the sensing data and network analysis results, and can intelligently generate dynamic instructions for the cutter head rotation speed, propulsion speed, and grouting pressure according to the real-time working conditions, effectively improving the automation level and construction efficiency of the shield machine, and reducing the risks and costs of manual operation.

[0065] In a preferred embodiment, the working process of the risk level module includes:

[0066] Map the shield segment rings to network nodes and calculate the similarity matrix between segment rings. The formula is:

[0067]

[0068] X i is the multidimensional eigenvector of the segment ring, σ is the multiple of the standard deviation of the eigenvector;

[0069] Generate a binary adjacency matrix by thresholding, retaining edges with similarity ≥ 0.7;

[0070] The network topology is analyzed based on node degree, average shortest path length and clustering coefficient, and high-risk communities are divided. The edge network is a network structure constructed by calculating the similarity matrix between shield construction segment rings. Node: Each shield segment ring is mapped to a network node, and the similarity of multidimensional parameters (geological conditions, mechanical parameters, construction efficiency, etc.) between segment rings is calculated by Gaussian kernel function. If the similarity exceeds the threshold (such as ≥0.7), an edge is established between the nodes to indicate the correlation of their construction performance. The constructed network has small-world characteristics (high clustering coefficient + short average path length), which can identify the community structure of construction performance and reflect the area of ​​sudden change in geological conditions. The complex network modeling (edge ​​network) of shield construction is integrated into the intelligent control system, and the dynamic mapping of geological risks is realized through community division, which goes beyond the traditional control mode that only relies on real-time sensor data.

[0071] The content of the risk level module includes:

[0072] Data preparation and feature extraction

[0073] Input data: multi-dimensional feature vector of shield segment ring, each segment ring contains the following parameters:

[0074] Geological parameters: soil hardness (MPa), pore water pressure (kPa), ground stress (MPa), temperature (℃) Mechanical parameters: cutter head speed (rpm), propulsion speed (mm / min), grouting pressure (MPa), torque (kN·m) Construction parameters: penetration rate (m / h), utilization rate (%), daily excavation volume (m / d)

[0075] Data preprocessing:

[0076] Standardization: Z-score standardization is performed on each parameter.

[0077] Outlier filtering: Use the 3σ principle to eliminate abnormal segment ring data.

[0078] Similarity calculation (Gaussian kernel function)

[0079] formula: X i ,X j: The normalized eigenvectors of segment rings i and j.

[0080] ||X i -X j ||: Euclidean distance, calculating the difference in multi-dimensional parameters between two segment rings.

[0081] σ: Gaussian kernel bandwidth, initially taking a value of 1.5 times the standard deviation of all eigenvectors, used to balance noise suppression and sensitivity.

[0082] Implementation steps:

[0083] Calculate the Euclidean distance: Traverse all pairs of segment rings to generate a fully connected similarity matrix.

[0084] Dynamically adjust the value of σ: In water-rich sand layers or hard rock layers, dynamically reduce σ according to the parameter volatility (e.g., σ = 1.0 times the standard deviation) to enhance the sensitivity to key parameters. Dynamically optimize the similarity threshold of the edge network according to the geological conditions (e.g., in the water-rich layer, σ = 1.0 times the standard deviation) to enhance the sensitivity to key parameters and reduce the false alarm rate of risk identification.

[0085] Output of the similarity matrix: Obtain an N×N matrix (N is the total number of segment rings), and the range of matrix elements is 0 - 1.

[0086] Network construction and thresholding

[0087] Generate the binary adjacency matrix:

[0088] Threshold selection: Retain the edges with similarity ≥ 0.7 to ensure network connectivity and filter noise.

[0089] Logical verification: If the network density is too low (e.g., the proportion of the number of edges < 5%), then lower the threshold to 0.6 to ensure the retention of key associations.

[0090] Network topology analysis indicators:

[0091] Node degree: The number of direct associations of a segment ring, reflecting its representativeness of geological conditions.

[0092] Clustering coefficient: Measuring the tightness of the local network, a high clustering coefficient (> 0.5) indicates stable regional geological conditions.

[0093] Average shortest path length: If the path length ≤ 3, it indicates that the network has the small-world property and is suitable for community division. Community division (Louvain algorithm), algorithm process:

[0094] Modularity optimization: Maximize the modularity Q value (objective function):

[0095]

[0096] A ij: Adjacency matrix element. If there is an edge between nodes i and j (i.e., the similarity between segment rings ≥ threshold), A ij is 1, otherwise 0; k i , k j : Degrees of nodes i and j; m represents the total weight of all edges in the network (for an unweighted network, i.e., the total number of edges). In the complex network of shield tunneling construction, the edges are defined by a binary adjacency matrix where the similarity between segment rings exceeds the threshold (e.g., ≥0.7), so m is the total number of edges that meet the condition. c i , c j represents the community number to which nodes i and j belong. After partitioning by the Louvain algorithm, each segment ring is assigned to a specific community (such as Community 1, Community 2, etc.). δ(c i , c j ): Indicator function, which is 1 if i and j belong to the same community, otherwise 0.

[0097] Iterative merging:

[0098] Phase 1: Local optimization. Assign each node to an adjacent community to maximize the Q value. Traverse each node in the network, calculate the gain in the modularity Q value when moving the node to an adjacent community. If the gain is positive, move the node to the community that maximizes ΔQ; otherwise, keep the node in the current community. When the movement of all nodes cannot improve the Q value, Phase 1 ends.

[0099] Phase 2: Aggregate nodes in the same community into supernodes, construct a new network, and repeat Phase 1 until the Q value converges. Merge the nodes in the same community into "supernodes" to generate a new simplified network. All nodes within each community are merged into one supernode, and the edge weights between supernodes are the sum of the weights of the edges across communities in the original network. Each community corresponds to a supernode. If there is an edge from community X to community Y in the original network, the edge weight between the corresponding supernodes X and Y in the new network is the sum of these edges. Use the newly generated network as the input and return to Phase 1 for further optimization until the modularity Q value no longer changes significantly (converges).

[0100] Risky community identification:

[0101] Criteria for high-risk communities: The average pore water pressure within the community ≥ 5 kPa, or the ground stress fluctuation ≥ 2 MPa. The community modularity Q > 0.3 (ensuring strong internal connections within the community) and contains at least 3 segment rings (excluding isolated noise points).

[0102] First, identify high-risk communities through complex network modeling (Gaussian kernel similarity calculation → Louvain community partitioning), and extract their geographical coordinates and risk levels. Risk level mapping and coordinate output.

[0103] Risk level classification:

[0104] Low risk: Community modularity Q < 0.2, small parameter fluctuations, maintain current parameters (cutter head rotation speed ≤ 8 rpm, grouting pressure 1.0 MPa).

[0105] Medium risk Q ∈ [0.2, 0.3), pore water pressure 3 - 5 kPa, reduce the propulsion speed to 70 mm / min, increase the grouting volume by 10%.

[0106] High risk Q ≥ 0.3, sudden change in in-situ stress ≥ 3 Mpa, enable hard rock mode (rotation speed ≥ 10 rpm), activate the third-level warning.

[0107] Coordinate mapping method:

[0108] Spatial coordinate calculation: Based on the construction mileage of the segment ring and the three-dimensional geological model, map high-risk communities to specific geographical coordinates. Visualization output: Mark the risk area in the GIS platform, overlay the real-time position of the shield machine, and generate a dynamic risk heat map.

[0109] Implementation case: A subway tunnel passes through an alternating formation of water-rich sand layer and hard rock, with a total length of 1.2 km. Similarity analysis: At mileage K8 + 200, the similarity matrix shows that the similarity between segment rings drops suddenly from 0.8 to 0.4, triggering a warning. Community division: The Louvain algorithm identifies 3 high-risk communities, corresponding to fault fracture zones (pore water pressure 6.2 kPa, in-situ stress fluctuation 4.5 MPa). Construction adjustment: The system automatically switches to the water-rich mode, raises the grouting pressure to 1.8 MPa, reduces the cutter head rotation speed to 6 rpm, and successfully controls the ground settlement within 8 mm. High-precision correlation analysis: The Gaussian kernel function quantifies the multi-dimensional parameter differences between segment rings, avoiding single-index deviation. Dynamic risk identification: The Louvain algorithm automatically divides communities, and combines geological parameter thresholds to achieve dynamic calibration of risk levels. The risk coordinates are linked with construction parameters, providing real-time obstacle avoidance and parameter optimization suggestions for the shield machine.

[0114] The output is a dynamic adjustment instruction, including: cutter head rotation speed (accuracy 0.01 rpm), propulsion speed (accuracy 0.1 mm / min), grouting pressure (accuracy 0.01 MPa).

[0115] The edge network integrates multi-dimensional data such as geological parameters, mechanical status, and construction efficiency, quantifies the correlation through the Gaussian kernel function, provides structured input for the deep learning model, and improves the decision-making accuracy.

[0116] In a preferred embodiment, it further includes an edge-cloud computing collaboration module. The edge node processes real-time control instructions, and the cloud platform executes complex network modeling and deep learning model training.

[0131] The present invention adopts real-time data acquisition and edge processing: The sensor array collects data at a frequency of 1000Hz, and the edge node completes data normalization and feature extraction within 50ms. Trigger fuzzy PID control: For example, when the sudden change in in-situ stress ≥ 3MPa, automatically increase the cutter head speed to more than 8rpm.

[0132] Complex network modeling and risk identification (cloud): Similarity matrix construction: Calculate the Gaussian kernel similarity between segment rings, and threshold to generate a binary adjacency matrix (edges are retained if similarity ≥ 0.7). Community detection: Divide communities through the Louvain algorithm, and mark high-risk communities (pore water pressure ≥ 5kPa or in-situ stress fluctuation ≥ 2MPa). Risk mapping: Map community coordinates (such as K12+350) to a 3D geological model to generate a risk heat map. Deep learning decision generation: Input: Real-time feature vector + complex network risk label + historical geological parameters. Output: Construction parameter optimization instructions (such as increasing the grouting pressure in the water-rich layer to 1.8MPa). Risk response strategies (such as predicting the risk of the fault zone 30 minutes later and switching to the hard rock mode in advance).

[0133] Edge-cloud collaborative feedback: The cloud sends optimization parameters and risk strategies to the edge node to update the local control model. The edge node performs dynamic adjustment and at the same time feeds back the actual construction data to the cloud for model iterative training.

[0134] In a preferred embodiment, it further includes a blockchain security module, which encrypts sensor data using AES-256 sharding, transmits instructions through a quantum key distribution channel, and stores operation logs in the consortium chain to support audit traceability;

[0135] The blockchain security module includes:

[0136] Stored in distributed nodes, a single node failure does not affect the overall integrity;

[0137] With the PBFT consensus algorithm, the transaction confirmation time is less than 1 second.

[0138] In a preferred embodiment, it further includes a three - level pressure protection mechanism:

[0139] Detection location and sensor configuration. Sensor type: A silicon piezoresistive pore water pressure sensor (measurement range 0 - 10 MPa, accuracy 0.05 kPa) is adopted and integrated on the inner wall of the soil bin to be used for real - time monitoring of the composite pressure of soil pressure and water pressure in the soil bin. Supplementary with fiber Bragg grating in - situ stress sensors (accuracy 0.1 MPa), which are arranged on the front wall of the soil bin and the shield tail seal area to monitor the overall stress distribution of the soil bin. Front wall area: 6 sensors are arranged in a circular array with a spacing of 200 mm to monitor the direct soil pressure behind the cutter head. Side walls and top: 12 sensors are evenly distributed to cover the entire circumference of the soil bin to prevent local pressure anomalies. Shield tail seal area: 4 redundant sensors are configured to monitor the seal pressure and link with the grouting system. The soil bin pressure is the comprehensive value of soil stress and pore water pressure (the comprehensive value of soil bin pressure is the algebraic sum of effective soil stress and pore water pressure).

[0140] When 4 Mpa > soil bin pressure ≥ 3 MPa, a first - level early warning is triggered, and the propulsion speed is reduced to 50 mm / min;

[0141] When 5 Mpa > soil bin pressure ≥ 4 MPa, a second - level protection is started, the cutter head rotation is stopped, and grouting is pressurized to 1.5 MPa;

[0142] When the soil bin pressure ≥ 5 MPa, it enters the safety mode, the power is cut off, and the emergency drainage system is started.

[0143] In a preferred embodiment, the neural network training process of the intelligent decision - making module includes:

[0144] Input historical geological data and construction parameters, with the label being the actual construction efficiency and failure rate; the risk community label output by the edge network is used as an additional input feature of the convolutional neural network (CNN) to optimize the generation of control instructions. For example, the accuracy of the grouting pressure instruction in a high - risk community is improved from ±0.1% to ±0.05%.

[0145] The Adam optimizer (learning rate 0.001) and ReLU activation function are adopted, and the loss function is a combination of mean square error and cross - entropy.

[0146] Data preparation and feature fusion:

[0147] Input data:

[0148] Historical geological data: including soil layer hardness (0 - 100 MPa), pore water pressure (0 - 10 MPa), ground stress (0 - 50 MPa), and temperature (-40°C to 120°C), collected by a high-precision multi-dimensional sensing module, and the data is standardized to a mean of 0 and a variance of 1.

[0149] Construction parameters: parameters such as cutter head rotation speed (0 - 10 rpm), propulsion speed (0 - 100 mm / min), grouting pressure (0 - 2 MPa), etc., extracted according to the operation log.

[0151] Label data:

[0152] Construction efficiency labels: penetration rate (m / h), utilization rate (%), and daily tunneling volume (m / d).

[0153] Failure rate labels: tool wear rate (mm / h), number of hydraulic system failures, and proportion of downtime. Input layer design: Multi-modal feature splicing: Original feature vector (dimension 128): Geological data and construction parameters are compressed through a fully connected layer (512 nodes). Risk feature vector (dimension 64): Risk community labels are encoded as continuous vectors through an embedding layer. Fusion method: The original features and risk features are spliced into a 192-dimensional input vector and reduced to 128 dimensions through a 1×1 convolutional kernel.

[0154] Five-layer convolutional neural network: Risk feature guidance: An attention mechanism is introduced after convolutional layer 2, and risk community labels dynamically weight the feature maps through a gated unit, increasing the feature weights of high-risk communities. Feature fusion verification: Through the community similarity matrix output by the risk level module (calculated by the Gaussian kernel function), the feature distribution is constrained during backpropagation to ensure that the feature distance of the same type of community ≤ 0.1.

[0155] Training process, optimizer configuration: Adam optimizer: Learning rate 0.001, β1 = 0.9, β2 = 0.999, ε = 1e -8 。Dynamic learning rate: When the validation loss does not decrease for 3 consecutive epochs, the learning rate decays to 0.5 times the original value.

[0156] Training steps:

[0157] Forward propagation: The input features generate prediction parameters through the CNN, and the MSE loss is calculated. Backward propagation: When the gradient is backpropagated, risk community labels adjust the weights of the convolutional layer through a gated unit, and the feature gradient of high-risk communities is amplified by 1.2 times. Parameter update: The Adam optimizer updates the weights, and a model snapshot is saved every 1000 steps.

[0158] Precision improvement mechanism, refined control guided by risk communities: High-risk communities: In the loss function of the grouting pressure command, the error term is multiplied by a coefficient of 1.5, forcing the model to converge to a higher precision (±0.05%). Medium- and low-risk communities: Standard loss weights are adopted to maintain a precision of ±0.1%.

[0159] Real-time feedback optimization: After each tunneling is completed, actual construction data (such as soil pressure fluctuations, cutter wear) is transmitted back to the training set, triggering incremental learning: updating the weights of the fully connected layer while keeping the parameters of the convolutional layer unchanged. New data from high-risk communities is added to the training set with a weight of 2 times.

[0160] Fuzzy PID control of shield machine: The output parameters of the CNN are used as the PID set values, and dynamic adjustment is achieved through a closed-loop control with a response time ≤ 50 ms. The risk community labels are dynamically updated through Gaussian kernel similarity to ensure the spatio-temporal consistency of the input features.
