Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the technical field of software evaluation, and particularly to a method for comparing building simulation software based on an IFC standard test dataset. Background Art

[0002] During the construction process of building projects, various virtual simulations are carried out, which are an important part of intelligent construction in the building planning and design process. However, due to the large number of building simulation software, different application data formats, and different data contents of concern, it is impossible to directly use the original model data for various simulation applications. Each building simulation software needs to perform secondary modeling and then input parameters for simulation calculation. In this process, due to the different implementation logics of different software, there are also large deviations in the simulation results, and the simulation accuracy cannot be guaranteed. To make scientific and reasonable decisions, it is necessary to evaluate the building simulation software to facilitate the selection of more suitable building simulation software for each building project.

[0003] In related technologies, simulation evaluation usually includes three methods, namely, analysis verification method, comparison verification method, and experimental verification method. Among them, the analysis verification method mainly conducts theoretical analysis on the structure, algorithm, and parameters of the simulation model to check whether it conforms to relevant scientific principles, mathematical logic, and physical laws, etc.; the comparison verification method mainly compares the simulation results with existing reliable data, the results of other similar models, or the operation data of the actual system to evaluate the accuracy of the simulation model; the experimental verification method mainly designs and conducts experiments to compare the prediction results of the simulation model with the experimental observation data to verify the effectiveness of the model.

[0004] However, the analysis verification method, comparison verification method, and experimental verification method in related technologies all evaluate the simulation model from a single perspective, making it difficult to comprehensively consider the differences of building simulation software, and lacking a neutral and unified evaluation standard, resulting in an incomplete and inaccurate evaluation of the simulation model, which urgently needs to be solved.

[0029] The embodiments of the present application will be described in detail below. The examples of the embodiments are shown in the accompanying drawings, where the same or similar reference numerals denote the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions throughout. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and are intended to explain the present application and should not be construed as limiting the present application.

[0030] The building simulation software comparison method based on the IFC standard test dataset according to the embodiments of the present application will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. In view of the problems that the analysis verification method, comparison verification method, experimental verification method, etc. in the related art mentioned in the above background art all evaluate the simulation model from a single perspective, it is difficult to comprehensively consider the differences of building simulation software, and there is a lack of neutral and unified evaluation criteria, resulting in an incomplete and inaccurate evaluation of the simulation model, the present application provides a building simulation software comparison method based on the IFC standard test dataset. In this method, an IFC standard test dataset can be created, and the target building simulation software and other building simulation software can extract at least one corresponding IFC sub - model from the IFC standard test dataset for simulation calculation and simulation calculation, so as to compare and evaluate the building simulation software according to the simulation calculation results, simulation calculation results, and actual results. Thus, the creation of a standard test dataset in the open and neutral IFC data format is realized, ensuring the unity of the test data of building simulation software; the present application can also extract corresponding sub - models from the IFC standard test dataset according to the data input requirements of each building simulation software, import them into the building simulation software, and output an evaluation of the simulation results according to the output simulation results and the comparison with the actual results, which can realize a comprehensive evaluation of the building simulation software and ensure the accuracy of the evaluation results. Thus, the problems in the related art, such as the analysis verification method, comparison verification method, experimental verification method, etc. all evaluating the simulation model from a single perspective, being difficult to comprehensively consider the differences of building simulation software, and lacking neutral and unified evaluation criteria, resulting in an incomplete and inaccurate evaluation of the simulation model, etc. are solved.

[0031] Specifically, Figure 1 is a flowchart of a building simulation software comparison method based on the IFC standard test dataset provided by the embodiments of the present application.

[0032] As Figure 1 shown, the building simulation software comparison method based on the IFC standard test dataset includes the following steps:

[0033] In step S101, an IFC standard test data set is created based on a pre-established simulation digitization standard.

[0034] In some embodiments, different building simulation tasks may be applicable to different building simulation software. To achieve a more comprehensive and accurate comparison of simulation results, the embodiments of the present application can create a standardized test data set based on IFC, and test and compare the simulation results of each building simulation software through public and neutral test data.

[0035] Furthermore, considering that different building simulation software applications have different data formats and data contents of concern, to meet the need for a large amount of standardized data for various intelligent construction simulation design services, and the standardization and accuracy of the data set need to be ensured by establishing simulation data standards. Therefore, the embodiments of the present application can create a standardized test data set based on IFC through a pre-established simulation digitization standard to ensure the standardization and accuracy of the standardized test data set based on IFC.

[0036] Among them, the pre-established simulation digitization standard can be understood here as a data standard that can meet various building simulation software and various building simulation tasks. Next, the establishment process of the simulation digitization standard in the embodiments of the present application will be further explained.

[0037] Optionally, in an embodiment of the present application, before creating the IFC standard test data set, it further includes: collecting the simulation types of multiple types of building simulation tasks; formulating digital inspection rules for the simulation types based on the data standard requirements and data standard constraints of the simulation types to determine the simulation digitization standard.

[0038] Based on the relevant descriptions of other embodiments, it can be understood that the present application can test and compare each building simulation software through a standardized test data set based on IFC, where the standardized test data set based on IFC can be implemented through a pre-established simulation digitization standard.

[0039] In some embodiments, to ensure that the simulation digitization standard meets both the normative modeling of the model for humans and the automatic inspection standard for computers, the embodiments of the present application can first sort out various intelligent construction simulation tasks to determine the corresponding simulation types of the simulation tasks, and then, based on the data standard requirements and data standard constraints of each simulation type, formulate digital inspection rules for each simulation type, and these rules together constitute the simulation digitization standard.

[0040] For example, the simulation of the building construction process mainly conducts dynamic simulations on various activities during the building construction process, such as foundation construction, main structure construction, equipment installation, etc., to optimize the construction process, reasonably arrange resources, predict the construction progress, etc. Then this type of simulation task belongs to the process simulation type.

[0041] The specified digital inspection rules for the building construction process simulation type can include but are not limited to:

[0042] (1) Construction process logic inspection: Check whether the sequence of construction processes in the simulation conforms to the actual construction specifications and technological requirements through digital rules. For example, in foundation construction, earth excavation should be carried out first, and then foundation treatment and foundation pouring. Digital rules can set corresponding logical judgments. If it is found that the foundation is poured first and then earth excavation occurs in the simulation, it is determined as an error.

[0043] (2) Rationality inspection of resource allocation: According to the construction progress plan and resource demand plan, formulate digital rules to check whether the allocation of resources such as labor, materials, and construction machinery and equipment in the simulation is reasonable. For example, during the main structure construction stage, according to the concrete pouring volume and construction time, stipulate the number of concrete mixers and the number of operators required per hour. If the resource configuration in the simulation does not match the regulations, such as insufficient mixers resulting in untimely concrete supply and affecting the construction progress, a warning is issued.

[0044] (3) Construction progress deviation inspection: Digitally compare the simulated construction progress with the preset progress plan and set the allowable deviation range. For example, it is stipulated that the construction period of a certain floor is 10 days. In the simulation, if the actual completion time exceeds 12 days or is less than 8 days, that is, it exceeds the allowable deviation range, relevant construction links need to be inspected and analyzed to find the reasons and make adjustments.

[0045] Among them, the overall digital standard of this simulation can include but is not limited to adopting the internationally common IFC - MVD technical route, and the digital standard part can include but is not limited to adopting the internationally common Model View Definition (MVD) technical route. The digital rules are represented by the lightweight MVD language MVDLite, and can define various requirements and constraints for the model according to the specialty. After the standard is compiled, it can be distinguished by tags and used to correspond to each simulation type.

[0046] The embodiments of this application can formulate corresponding digital inspection rules based on the simulation types corresponding to various building simulation tasks, which helps to standardize the simulation process, improve the standardization and accuracy of the IFC standard test dataset, and reduce errors and deviations caused by human factors.

[0047] Optionally, in an embodiment of the present application, based on a pre-established simulation digital standard, an IFC standard test data set is created, including: generating a heterogeneous simulation model test data set based on the simulation digital standard, and converting the heterogeneous model data in the heterogeneous simulation model test data set into unified model data in IFC format; detecting whether the unified model data meets the preset data standard, and constructing an IFC model to create an IFC standard test data set when the unified model data meets the preset data standard.

[0048] In some embodiments, after the digital standards for each simulation type are established, the present application can perform modeling according to the standard requirements to create an IFC standard test data set. Since the modeling software for different building types is different, a person skilled in the art can select a suitable modeling software for modeling according to the actual situation, and the embodiments of the present application do not make specific limitations.

[0049] First, the embodiments of the present application can prepare complete standard model data based on various building types and simulation types required in the simulation digital standard, so as to form a complete heterogeneous simulation model data set.

[0050] Next, the embodiments of the present application can, but are not limited to, use a heterogeneous simulation model data algorithm to realize the high-speed conversion of heterogeneous model data to the unified data model in IFC format, that is, convert the heterogeneous model data of BIM (Building Information Model) built by different modeling software in the heterogeneous simulation model test data set into simulation IFC data format that meets the digital BIM standard. In the embodiments of the present application, the converted data is called unified model data. Among them, the model data required for simulation shall not be lost during the conversion process.

[0051] Furthermore, to ensure the accuracy of the IFC standard test data set, the embodiments of the present application can also implement the parsing and calculation of the unified model data based on the lightweight MVD language MVDLite (a language used to represent the inspection rules of Building Information Model (BIM)), and realize the automatic quality inspection of the unified model data through the digital standards corresponding to each simulation type loaded, so as to quickly and accurately find the problems that do not meet the standards in the unified model data. That is, detect whether the unified model data meets the preset data standard, and construct an IFC model and an IFC standard test data set when the unified model data meets the preset data standard to ensure the standardization and effectiveness of the test data in the IFC standard test data set.

[0052] Among them, the preset data standard can be understood here as a data standard established in advance to measure whether the unified model data meets the requirements of the IFC standard test data set. For example, the digitization rules and model data are both in the public state and do not tend to any one building simulation software, that is, the data functions or data effects in any one building simulation software are the same.

[0053] Among them, in the detection process of the embodiments of the present application, the data model content covered by the automatic quality inspection of digitization rules and model data includes but is not limited to six calculation dimensions: model structure, model unit, visualization, attribute, relationship, and geometry. Through quality inspection, the construction of the IFC standard test data set can be completed.

[0054] In addition, in order to ensure that the IFC model can be stored, retrieved, and called quickly, the storage technology used in the embodiments of the present application can but is not limited to the following:

[0055] (1) When storing files, use hash values such as MD5 for verification. If it belongs to the same file content (but with different file names), then perform second-generation transmission.

[0056] (2) Sharded storage. The sharded storage technology completes the cutting and sharding of model files and stores them in different locations of a single or multiple databases to reduce the access pressure on a single database and improve the utilization efficiency of data. In sharded storage, each file shard will calculate relevant virtual hash values to partition the storage cluster.

[0057] As an unstructured data, considering the performance and database read-write characteristics, this system stores the IFC file in a NoSql database to improve the read-write and query efficiency of the IFC model file.

[0058] Step S102, based on the simulation digitization standard and the IFC standard test data set, generate at least one IFC sub-model corresponding to the target building simulation software and other building simulation software except the target building simulation software.

[0059] In some other embodiments, after the IFC standard test data set is created, the present application can prepare the test data of the building simulation software. Since there are differences in simulation types and building simulation software, etc., the parameter requirements, data range requirements, and accuracy requirements of the test data are different. Based on this, the present application can generate at least one IFC sub-model corresponding to the target building simulation software and other building simulation software except the target building simulation software according to the simulation digitization standard and the IFC standard test data set, so as to use the IFC sub-model for the simulation calculation of these building simulation software.

[0060] Among them, the IFC sub-model can be understood here as an IFC sub-file in the IFC standard test dataset that meets the requirements of the simulation type and building simulation software, and can be extracted from the IFC standard test dataset according to the simulation digitization standard; the target building simulation software can be understood here as one or more building simulation software for which the simulation results are compared or evaluated.

[0061] Next, the generation process of the IFC sub-model in the embodiments of the present application will be further explained.

[0062] Optionally, in an embodiment of the present application, based on the simulation digitization standard and the IFC standard test dataset, at least one IFC sub-model corresponding to the target building simulation software and other building simulation software except the target building simulation software is generated, including: constructing a digital rule according to the model data verification strategy and the sub-model extraction strategy, and combining the simulation digitization standard and the IFC standard test dataset to generate at least one IFC sub-model.

[0063] In some embodiments, the present application can generate at least one IFC sub-model of the target building simulation software and other building simulation software except the target building simulation software according to the simulation digitization standard and the IFC standard test dataset.

[0064] In the actual execution process, when generating the at least one IFC sub-model, the present application can first unify the model data verification strategy and the sub-model extraction strategy into a digital rule, and then combine the digital rule, the simulation digitization standard and the IFC standard test dataset to generate at least one IFC sub-model corresponding to the target building simulation software and other building simulation software.

[0065] Among them, model data verification can be understood here as the process of quality inspection of the unified model data in the previous embodiments, and the model data verification strategy can be understood here as modeling this process as a callable strategy (model). The sub-model extraction strategy can be understood here as the strategy (model) for extracting the IFC sub-model from the IFC standard test dataset in the previous embodiments.

[0066] Specifically, after the IFC standard test dataset is created, it is necessary to accurately provide model data for the target building simulation software and other building simulation software. In order to facilitate the extraction of IFC sub-models applicable to different building simulation software from the IFC standard test dataset, the embodiments of the present application can first unify the model data verification strategy and the sub-model extraction strategy into a digital rule.

[0067] Through this digitalization rule and the corresponding sub-model extraction technology and algorithm, intelligent verification and automatic extraction of test data applicable to building simulation software can be performed, generating various professional simulation BIM sub-model rule data corresponding to the target building simulation software and other building simulation software (a series of rules and related data followed by the sub-models established in the building information model (BIM) for simulation analysis in different professional fields), that is, the IFC sub-model in the embodiments of this application. Thus, it can be ensured that the extracted IFC sub-model meets the data requirements of the corresponding building simulation software, so that the building simulation software can perform various business simulation calculations.

[0068] Figure 2 This is a flowchart of sub-model extraction for an embodiment of this application. As Figure 2 shown, the embodiments of this application can utilize the characteristics of the IFC-MVD (specific model view definition based on the IFC standard, which can determine which parts in the IFC schema implemented by software tools are included) technical route to unify the model data verification strategy and the sub-model extraction strategy into a digitalization rule through MVDLite. As Figure 2 shown, after the IFC model generated according to the heterogeneous model undergoes component extraction by the MVD engine according to the rules, one or more IFC sub-models that meet the data requirements of different building simulation software can be output according to the requirements.

[0069] Step S103, using at least one IFC sub-model to simulate and calculate the simulation results of the target building simulation software and the simulation results of other building simulation software except the target building simulation software, and comparing the simulation results, the simulation results and the actual results to obtain the comparison results of the target building simulation software and other building simulation software except the target building simulation software.

[0070] In some embodiments, after obtaining at least one IFC sub-model corresponding to the target building simulation software and other building simulation software, the embodiments of this application can input at least one IFC sub-model into the corresponding target building simulation software and other building simulation software for simulation calculation.

[0071] Among them, before performing the simulation calculation of the target building simulation software, the embodiments of this application can also first perform various parameter settings according to the requirements of the building simulation software. These parameters are used to define various environmental variables, some spare parts not reflected in the model, simulation calculation rules, etc., so as to simulate the real scene required for the simulation. It should be noted that since different building simulation tasks and building simulation tasks are different, the parameters can be directly extracted from the IFC sub-model or manually entered. Specifically, it can be set or adjusted by professionals in this field according to the actual situation. The embodiments of this application are only for illustrative purposes and are not specifically limited.

[0072] Further, after the parameter setting is completed, the embodiments of the present application can also select corresponding correction factors to correct these parameters. Finally, system simulation operations are performed to obtain the simulation operation output results of the target building simulation software, where the simulation operation output results include but are not limited to result values and dynamic effects based on the model. Since the specific parameter modification and correction are both carried out in the simulation software, and for different building simulation software and building simulation tasks, professional technicians in this technical field may have different requirements, the determination criteria / rules for the correction factors of the parameters and the actual correction factor values can be determined by professional technicians in this technical field according to the actual situation and actual needs. The present application only makes an exemplary illustration and does not make specific limitations.

[0073] After obtaining the simulation operation results of the building simulation software based on the extracted IFC sub-model for simulation calculation, the output simulation calculation results can be compared with the simulation calculation results of other common same-type building simulation software except the target building simulation software and the true values (actual results) of the building simulation tasks.

[0074] When obtaining the simulation calculation results of other building simulation software, the other building simulation software needs to perform simulation calculations using the same IFC standard test data set, that is, select the corresponding IFC sub-model suitable for other building software from the IFC standard test data set, so as to ensure the consistency of the simulation test data, and further ensure the comparability of the simulation calculation results of the target building simulation software and the simulation calculation results of other building simulation software.

[0075] Moreover, when evaluating the simulation degrees of the target building simulation software and other building simulation software, the embodiments of the present application can make each target building simulation software and other building simulation software simulate the simulation values under the same conditions, and judge the accuracy of the simulation software through the true values (actual results) and the simulation values.

[0076] Thus, the embodiments of the present application can introduce the standard test data set as an important basis for testing the credibility of the building simulation software. By constructing a standard test data set based on the open and neutral IFC data format, after sub-model extraction according to the data input requirements of each building simulation software and importing it into the building simulation software, through the comparison of the output simulation results and the comparison of the consistency with the actual results, the evaluation of the simulation results is output, including but not limited to the comprehensive evaluation of the accuracy of each simulation result, the applicability of the simulation scenario, the ease of use, etc., so as to realize the accurate evaluation of the building simulation software.

[0077] Optionally, in an embodiment of the present application, by comparing the simulation calculation results, the simulation calculation results, and the actual results, a comparison result between the target building simulation software and other building simulation software except the target building simulation software is obtained, including: obtaining boundary conditions of multiple types of simulation calculation methods, and correcting the boundary simulation calculation results in the simulation calculation results and the boundary simulation calculation results in the simulation calculation results according to the actual operation data under the boundary conditions; combining the simulation calculation results, the corrected boundary simulation calculation results, the simulation calculation results, and the corrected boundary simulation calculation results to determine the comparison result between the target building simulation software and other building simulation software except the target building simulation software.

[0078] In the actual execution process, the comparison process between the simulation calculation results of the target building simulation software and other building simulation software involves some boundary conditions, that is, the restrictive conditions or constraints imposed on the boundary of the model, which are used to simulate the interaction between the structure or system and the external environment in the actual project, so that the simulation calculation can more accurately reflect the real situation, such as displacement boundary conditions, force boundary conditions, temperature boundary conditions, flow field boundary conditions, etc.

[0079] These boundary conditions will cause the calculation results at the boundary to be different from those in other regions. Therefore, the embodiment of the present application can obtain the boundary conditions of multiple types of simulation calculation methods, and judge the actual reference values under each boundary condition according to the actual operation data under the boundary conditions, so as to correct the boundary simulation calculation results in the target building simulation calculation results and the boundary simulation calculation results in the simulation calculation results of other building simulation software, and then determine the comparison result between the target building simulation software and other building simulation software except the target building simulation software according to the corrected boundary simulation calculation results and boundary simulation calculation results combined with the simulation calculation results and the simulation calculation results.

[0080] Moreover, through the actual operation data under the boundary conditions and the boundary simulation calculation results and boundary simulation calculation results of the target building simulation software and other building simulation software under the boundary conditions, the embodiment of the present application can further determine the simulation degree and accuracy of the target building simulation software and other building simulation software.

[0081] The following elaborates on the present application in detail with a specific embodiment.

[0082] Figure 3 It is a flowchart of a method for comparing building simulation software based on an IFC standard test dataset according to an embodiment of the present application. As Figure 3 shown:

[0083] (1) Establish simulation digital standards: Sort out various intelligent construction simulation tasks to determine the simulation types; and formulate digital inspection rules for each simulation type, which are used for automatic quality inspection of model data and extraction of professional simulation sub-models in the subsequent steps, thereby establishing simulation digital standards that are oriented to both the standardized modeling of models by humans and the automatic inspection by computers;

[0084] (2) Create an IFC standard test data set: According to various building types and simulation types in the simulation digital standards, form a complete heterogeneous simulation model data set, and the model data needs to be prepared according to the standards; through the heterogeneous simulation model data algorithm, convert the heterogeneous model data to the unified data model IFC format at high speed, that is, convert the heterogeneous simulation model data set to the IFC standard test data set, and conduct quality inspection on the data in the IFC standard test data set;

[0085] (3) Extract sub-models according to the data standards of building simulation software: Select the target building simulation software and other building simulation software that need to be compared, and then extract the corresponding IFC sub-models from the IFC standard test data set according to the digital standards of these building simulation software;
