Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of structural health monitoring, and in particular relates to a bridge modal parameter identification method based on seismic interferometry. Background Art
[0002] With the increasing demand for identifying structural dynamic characteristics in strong vibration scenarios such as earthquakes and rail transit, the interaction between the time-varying characteristics of the excitation source and the soil-structure coupling effect (SSI) in engineering practice has become a key technical challenge. Traditional vibration modal identification methods have inherent limitations in separating the spatial distribution characteristics of the excitation source from the dynamic response of the soil-structure system, resulting in the obtained modal parameters deviating from the actual structural characteristics. In this context, seismic interferometry, as an emerging wave mode identification technology, achieves the theoretical elimination of the spatial heterogeneity of external excitation and the effective decoupling of the SSI effect by constructing a mathematical reconstruction mechanism for the structural impulse response function. The structural intrinsic dynamic parameters obtained in this way show significant technical advantages in terms of modal identification accuracy, finite element model modification reliability, and damage diagnosis sensitivity.
[0003] Current seismic interferometry methods are primarily used for high-rise structures because they are only able to decouple one-sided soil-structure interactions. Bridges, however, are in contact with the ground at least at two ends. Therefore, current seismic interferometry methods cannot meet the requirements for bridge modal identification applications.
[0004] Combining the actual needs of the project, such as whether it is possible to break through the limitation of the one-sided seismic interferometry method under different excitation conditions and propose a corresponding improved seismic interferometry method, is the key to accurate modal identification of bridges. Summary of the Invention
[0005] The purpose of the present invention is to provide a bridge modal parameter identification method based on seismic interferometry, which aims to directly decouple the input excitation, avoid the coupling effect of the Gaussian white noise assumption on the identification results, and eliminate the interaction between soil and structure, avoiding the inclusion of the dynamic characteristics of the soil in the identification results.
[0006] The purpose of the present invention can be achieved through the following technical solutions: A bridge modal parameter identification method based on seismic interferometry, the method comprising: Arrange sensors according to the monitoring points of the bridge to be tested and collect its displacement response in working state; Construct impulse response function based on displacement response based on seismic interferometry; Using the least square method to identify initial modal parameters of the impulse response function, wherein the initial modal parameters include frequency and vibration shape; Calculate the stiffness matrix and mass matrix of the bridge based on the initial modal parameters; Set one of the coupled terms in the stiffness matrix and the mass matrix to infinity and extract the decoupled modal parameters.
[0007] Furthermore, constructing the impulse response function based on the displacement response based on the seismic interferometry method specifically includes the following process: ; in, is the impulse response function, represents the displacement of the structural motion trajectory field, Indicates at the reference point The displacement, is the inverse Fourier transform, * represents the complex conjugate, and the regularization parameter is introduced It is intended to stabilize computations by preventing division by zero instabilities.
[0008] Furthermore, the identification of the initial modal parameters of the impulse response function using the least squares method specifically includes the following process: Constructing the residual function The residual function is defined as the error between the observed data and the model prediction value: r(t)=y(t)-f(p,t) Where: y(t) is the observed signal vector; f(p,t) is the model prediction signal, P is the modal parameter, and the modal parameter is The frequency and damping ratio of the order, r(t) is the residual vector; The objective function is to minimize the residual sum of squares: ; in, is the modulus value of r(t), M is the number of sampling points; Solve the minimization problem using an optimization algorithm: .
[0009] Furthermore, the calculation of the stiffness matrix and mass matrix of the bridge based on the initial modal parameters specifically includes the following process: According to the obtained initial modal parameters, use the associated formula: , where K is the stiffness matrix, M is the mass matrix, is the frequency in the initial modal parameters, is the vibration mode in the initial modal parameters.
[0010] Furthermore, the bridge under test is a three-span continuous beam bridge.
[0011] Furthermore, extracting the decoupled modal parameters specifically includes the following process: Identify the source of coupling problems: Spatial coupling: The vibration correlation between adjacent measuring points leads to non-orthogonal vibration modes; Parameter coupling: off-diagonal terms of the stiffness matrix and mass matrix; Decoupling method: Diagonalization: For the coupling matrix [A]=[K]-ω2[M], through similarity transformation Diagonalization, where is a reversible matrix; Infinite stiffness assumption: For the fully constrained direction, set the corresponding stiffness term kij→∞, forcing decoupling; Parameter extraction after decoupling: Independent modal analysis: After diagonalization, each mode corresponds to an independent equation: ; where λr is a diagonal matrix The rth element of ; Parameter correction: Update the finite element model with the decoupled modal parameters to verify consistency.
[0012] Furthermore, vertical displacement sensors are arranged at the mid-span, 1 / 4 span and supports of each span of the bridge under test.
[0013] Compared with the existing solutions, the present invention achieves the following beneficial effects: The present invention arranges sensors according to monitoring points of the measured bridge to collect its displacement response in a working state; constructs an impulse response function for the displacement response based on the seismic interferometry method; uses the least squares method to identify the initial modal parameters of the impulse response function, wherein the obtained initial modal parameters include frequency and vibration mode; calculates the stiffness matrix and mass matrix of the bridge based on the initial modal parameters; sets one of the coupling items in the stiffness matrix and the mass matrix to infinity, and extracts the decoupled modal parameters, thereby overcoming the defect that the traditional seismic interferometry method is only applicable to high-rise structures, that is, it can only decouple the soil-structure interaction on one side.
[0014] Compared with existing operational mode identification methods, the present invention does not require the Gaussian white noise assumption, but directly decouples the input excitation, avoiding the coupling influence of the Gaussian white noise assumption on the identification results, while eliminating the interaction between soil and structure, and avoiding the dynamic characteristics of the soil being included in the identification results.
