Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the field of life prediction, and particularly to a life prediction method for deep - sea watertight connectors. Background Art
[0002] Deep - sea watertight connectors are important components for deep - sea equipment to achieve power distribution, signal transmission, and communication. Their reliability directly determines the long - term operation of major equipment such as underwater production systems in extreme environments. This component is long - term subjected to the multi - field coupling effects of high pressure, high - salt corrosion, temperature gradient, and dynamic mechanical loads, resulting in the performance degradation showing strong non - linear and non - stationary characteristics. Existing life prediction methods face four major bottlenecks: First, the synergistic action mechanism of high pressure, low temperature, corrosion, and mechanical loads is complex, and traditional single - factor models are difficult to accurately decouple the multi - physical - field coupling effects; Second, the high cost of deep - sea tests leads to scarce failure data, and the generalization ability of traditional statistical models is insufficient under small - sample conditions; Third, material damage has threshold effects and non - linear mutation characteristics, and crack propagation shows a three - stage mode of "slow - fast - failure". Existing linear degradation models cannot capture the performance inflection point at the end of life; Fourth, there are significant differences between the dynamic pressure fluctuations in the laboratory environment and real sea conditions, and the coupling effect of bio - attachment - corrosion. The migration reliability of cross - sea area life prediction needs to be improved urgently.
