Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention.

[0037] Embodiment 1:

[0038] A certain company introduced a highway culvert leakage monitoring method based on a wireless sensor network provided by the present invention to improve the accuracy and efficiency of highway culvert leakage monitoring. The method flow is as Figure 1 shown, and the specific implementation manners are as follows:

[0039] Obtain and process the particle leakage data of different seasons collected by historical sensors to obtain the particle leakage time series characteristics; obtain the particle leakage change rate characteristics according to the particle leakage time series characteristics, and determine the particle leakage monitoring area according to the particle leakage change rate characteristics;

[0040] Furthermore, the specific steps for obtaining the particle leakage monitoring area include:

[0041] The particle leakage data includes pore water pressure data, temperature data, joint displacement data, and leakage flow data. Table 1 shows some particle leakage data;

[0042] Table 1. Some particle leakage data

[0043] Timestamp Pore water pressure (kPa) Temperature (°C) Joint displacement Leakage flow rate (ml) 2023-12-10 08:00:00 35.2 -5.3 0.02 80 2023-12-10 12:00:00 62.7 -2.1 0.08 152 2023-12-10 16:00:00 38.9 -2.8 -0.05 94 2023-12-10 20:00:00 28.4 -8.3 0.09 59

[0044] Process the particle leakage data through Fourier transform, use the Hodrick-Prescott filter to separate the long-term trend, and identify sudden jump points based on Bayesian change point analysis (BCP) to obtain three types of particle leakage time series characteristics, including periodic characteristics, trend characteristics, and mutation characteristics; construct the daily, weekly, monthly, and quarterly change rate characteristics of the three types of particle leakage time series characteristics to obtain the particle leakage change rate characteristics, and finally process the particle leakage change rate characteristics to output the particle leakage monitoring area.

[0045] Further, first, preprocess the characteristics of pore water pressure data, temperature data, joint displacement data, and leakage flow data through Fourier transform, Hodrick-Prescott filter, and Bayesian change point analysis to obtain periodic time series characteristics, trend time series characteristics, and mutation time series characteristics, forming a feature matrix with a structure of 4×3;

[0046] Further, use convolutional neural network, recurrent neural network, and transformer mechanism to construct daily, weekly, monthly, and quarterly change rate characteristics of the above three types of key time series characteristics, and finally output the number of the particle leakage monitoring area through a feedforward neural network.

[0047] First, separate the three time series characteristics of period, trend, and mutation, and then construct daily, weekly, monthly, and quarterly change rate characteristics respectively, which can comprehensively capture the dynamic changes of the leakage process from different time scales, thereby improving the accuracy and timeliness of anomaly detection.

[0048] Obtain the location of the particle leakage monitoring area and arrange the sensor network according to the particle leakage change rate characteristics;

[0049] Further, the specific steps for setting the location of the sensor network include: obtaining the data of historical monitoring points and performing cluster analysis on the particle leakage time series characteristics of the monitoring points in the particle leakage monitoring area to obtain the sensor placement points and arrange the sensor network.

[0050] Further, in the above process, a matrix with a structure of 4×3 is obtained. Obtain all the matrix data of the monitoring points in the particle leakage monitoring area, and perform cluster analysis through the K-means clustering algorithm to obtain several cluster centers. Then, set the positions of the cluster centers as the sensor placement points and arrange the sensor network.

[0051] Through cluster analysis of the particle leakage time series characteristics of historical monitoring points, the most representative feature patterns in the area can be extracted; the cluster centers obtained by using K-means clustering can represent the key points in the monitoring area, thus making the arrangement of sensors more scientific and accurate, and ensuring that the data collection covers the most typical and sensitive positions in the area.

[0052] Obtain the leakage vibration data during the monitoring time and establish leakage data collection indicators. If it is greater than the threshold, data collection is performed to obtain the leakage monitoring curve, and the leakage data at the sensor monitoring position is sampled to obtain the suspended particle concentration;

[0054]

[0055] Furthermore, the construction of leakage data acquisition indicators includes: leakage vibration data including vehicle load, traffic flow, highway width, road surface vibration, and culvert vibration data. Obtain the vehicle load, traffic flow, highway width, road surface vibration, and culvert vibration data within the monitoring time, and establish leakage data acquisition indicators.

[0058] Furthermore, sensors are also installed on the highway to monitor vehicle load, traffic flow, vibration data, etc. Table 2 shows the relevant data on the highway monitored at some time points;

[0059] By constructing a leakage data acquisition indicator that comprehensively considers vehicle load, traffic flow, highway width, road surface vibration, and culvert vibration data, data acquisition can be automatically triggered by the threshold, effectively improving the accuracy, real-time performance, and intelligent level of culvert leakage monitoring, thus providing a solid technical guarantee for the structural safety management and early warning of culverts.

[0060] Obtain the vehicle load data, ground and culvert vibration data during the acquisition time, establish a temperature-vibration compensation term, obtain the leakage monitoring curve, and analyze the short-term permeability of particles; sample the suspended particle concentration at the sensor monitoring position;

[0061] Furthermore, the steps to obtain the leakage monitoring curve include:

[0062] If the leakage data acquisition indicator is always greater than the threshold, enter the acquisition time. During this period, continuously collect leakage data, use the temperature-vibration compensation term to correct the seepage flow rate, eliminate the interference of environmental temperature and mechanical vibration on the piezometric sensor, and obtain the true seepage flow rate. The formula is:

[0065] Construct a leakage monitoring curve during the acquisition time based on the true seepage flow rate.

[0066] By introducing a temperature-vibration compensation term, the interference of ambient temperature changes and mechanical vibration on the osmotic pressure sensor can be effectively eliminated, thereby obtaining the true seepage flow rate obtained according to Darcy's law. This ensures that the collected data is more real, reduces errors, and improves the overall accuracy of the monitoring system.

[0067] Further, the steps to obtain the short-term permeability of particles, the short-term change rate of particle volume, and the short-term change rate of pore area include:

[0068] Calculate the mean value of the derivative of the leakage monitoring curve during the monitoring time to obtain the short-term permeability K of the particles;

[0069] Sample the pore volume during the monitoring time and subtract it from the initial pore volume to obtain the short-term change rate V of the particle volume; sample the pore area during the monitoring time and subtract it from the initial pore area to obtain the short-term change rate S of the pore area.

[0070] Further, the specific steps to obtain the suspended particle concentration include:

[0071] Step S1: Use a dedicated turbidity or laser scattering sensor at the sensor monitoring location to collect the optical signal in the leakage water in real time. This signal is closely related to the concentration of suspended particles in the water;

[0072] Step S2: Filter, amplify, and denoise the collected original optical or electrical signal to eliminate the influence of environmental interference (such as light changes, temperature fluctuations, etc.) and ensure the accuracy of subsequent data conversion;

[0073] Step S3: Use the standard curve pre-calibrated in the laboratory to convert the processed sensor signal into the suspended particle concentration value; during the calibration process, the change in sensor sensitivity caused by temperature or other environmental factors can be considered for compensation.

[0074] Through the extraction and processing of the above data, the accuracy and reliability of data measurement are improved, and the leakage state in the culvert and the dynamic changes of the pore structure can be comprehensively and accurately reflected, providing real-time data support and scientific decision-making basis for the safety monitoring of the culvert.

[0075] Construct a vehicle load - particle leakage rate correlation model, input features such as vibration data, short - term particle permeability, short - term change rate of particle volume, short - term change rate of pore area, suspended particle concentration, etc., and output particle leakage indicators.

[0076] Furthermore, if the particle leakage indicator exceeds the threshold, the particle leakage monitoring area is marked as a leakage point for early warning.

[0077] Furthermore, the vehicle load - pore leakage rate correlation model is to explore the correlation between vehicle data, highway data, and leakage data. Its input data includes features such as vibration data, short - term particle permeability, short - term change rate of particle volume, short - term change rate of pore area, suspended particle concentration, etc. It constructs a vibration - leakage coupling term, a pore structure instability term, a hydraulic - leakage synergy term, and a joint deformation term, and further obtains the particle leakage indicator. The calculation formula is:

[0078]

[0079] Among them, R represents the particle leakage indicator, A rms represents the maximum vibration eigenvalue during the acquisition time, A0 represents the average vibration eigenvalue during the historical monitoring time, K represents the short - term particle permeability, K0 represents the initial permeability, that is, the inherent permeability of the soil under the condition of no vehicle load on the highway, exp() represents the exponential function, V represents the short - term change rate of particle volume, S represents the short - term change rate of pore area, ε represents the pore structure stability coefficient, an empirical parameter related to the soil strength, and the smaller the value, the more unstable the structure.

As shown in Table 3, the particle leakage indicators for some acquisition time periods in the third monitoring area are all greater than the threshold of 1. Through the particle leakage indicators of multiple acquisition time periods, it can be judged that there is indeed a leakage risk in the third monitoring area.

[0082] By continuously monitoring and analyzing the particle leakage indicators, taking into account factors such as vibration caused by vehicle load, pore structure changes, hydraulic conditions, and joint deformation, it can more comprehensively reflect the particle leakage behavior under the actual highway conditions and improve the accuracy of the assessment.
