Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of crack analysis technology, and in particular to a crack evaluation method based on three-dimensional ground penetrating radar and deflection values. Background Technology

[0002] During road use, road surfaces often develop problems such as cracks, potholes, and ruts due to factors such as vehicle loads, environmental influences, and material aging. Linear cracks, in particular, not only affect the lifespan of the road surface and driving comfort but can also lead to serious structural damage.

[0003] Current technologies primarily rely on image processing to identify cracks and conduct road maintenance based on crack length and width. However, these two parameters only reflect geometric characteristics and do not fully reveal the risk of crack propagation. Furthermore, crack evaluation methods often depend on single visual data and lack quantitative analysis of pavement structural strength. The correlation between deflection value, a key indicator of pavement bearing capacity, and crack development has not been effectively explored. Simultaneously, while static parameters such as surface layer gradation, thickness, and materials are considered in road design and maintenance, the specific relationship between these data and crack development is often overlooked. Analysis of crack development capacity and the impact of environmental factors on crack energy are not addressed, thus failing to accurately determine the causes of crack formation to provide effective reference for later road operation and maintenance, reducing the efficiency of the maintenance process. Summary of the Invention

[0092] With the final grayscale value threshold d tm As the final dividing point, gray values ​​less than d are... tm The pixel value of the pixel is changed to 0, and the gray value is greater than or equal to d. tm The pixel value of each pixel is changed to 1, thus obtaining a binarized image.

[0093] In a specific embodiment, the specific steps for obtaining the average crack energy of the road surface crack image based on the binarized image include:

[0094] The binarized image is transformed into a coordinate system: a Cartesian coordinate system is established with the lower left corner of the binarized image as the origin, the horizontal rightward direction is the positive x-axis, and the vertical upward direction is the positive y-axis, forming a binarized image matrix, represented as:

[0095]

[0096] In the formula, j is the imaginary unit, e = 0, 1, 2, ..., J-1; f = 0, 1, 2, ..., K-1; J is the number of pixels in the image matrix along the x-axis, and K is the number of pixels in the image matrix along the y-axis; J S K is the angular frequency in the x-axis direction. S Angular frequency in the y-axis direction;

[0097] The binarized image matrix is ​​split into several combinations of sine and cosine functions with known frequencies and amplitudes;

[0098] Specifically, the method of splitting the binarized image matrix into several sine and cosine functions with known frequencies and amplitudes in this embodiment is an existing technique in the field of image processing and will not be elaborated here.

[0099] The energy distribution of the road surface crack image is obtained based on the combination of the split sine and cosine functions. The energy distribution of the road surface crack image in one period signal is calculated using the following formula:

[0100]

[0101] In the formula, L is the image signal period in the x-axis direction, and M is the image signal period in the y-axis direction; P i H represents the i-th frequency; i For P i The corresponding energy values, and the energy distribution of the road surface crack image, are the energy values ​​corresponding to each frequency.

[0107]

[0108] Where, d i Let λ be the deflection value at the measuring point. i These are the weighting coefficients, and they satisfy the unbiasedness property. and the minimum variance condition;

[0109] The formula for calculating the overall fracture energy is as follows:

[0110]

[0111] Where D(x,y) is the deflection value at the current position, D crit Let α be the standard value of pavement deflection, and α be the coupling coefficient determined by regression of historical data.

[0112] S4: Determine several static parameters that affect the energy distribution of pavement crack images, analyze the degree of influence of several static parameters on the comprehensive crack energy, and judge the risk level of the crack area based on the collected deflection data and the preset deflection tolerance value, so as to achieve the evaluation of different types of cracks.

[0113] The static parameters include surface layer gradation, pavement layer thickness, humidity, traffic volume, base course materials, diurnal temperature range, subgrade soil materials, service life, and precipitation.

[0114] Specifically, this embodiment calculates the comprehensive crack energy by introducing deflection value parameters. The comprehensive crack energy reflects the energy level of cracks in the pavement crack image, and finally obtains evaluation results for different types of cracks. Subsequent work is carried out based on the evaluation results. For example, when the comprehensive crack energy value is high, it indicates that the crack is more serious and the possibility of further crack expansion is also greater. If the evaluation shows that the static parameter pavement layer thickness has the greatest impact on the comprehensive crack energy, it indicates that the cause of road cracks is greatly affected by the pavement layer thickness. Therefore, special attention should be paid to the maintenance of pavement layer thickness during maintenance. In addition, in road maintenance decision-making, the energy information of pavement cracks can be combined to optimize maintenance strategies and reasonably arrange maintenance costs, thereby improving the quality and efficiency of maintenance.

[0115] Specifically, this embodiment classifies cracks and then performs correlation analysis to understand the factors contributing to different crack types, providing a reference for subsequent maintenance and construction. Furthermore, based on the number of different types of cracks on the road surface, targeted maintenance and construction can be carried out. For example, if many crack types on the road surface are minor and cause little damage, they can be repaired. If there are many structural cracks and road resurfacing is planned, then the design and construction can focus on factors that significantly impact the road surface in this area and take corresponding measures to avoid them.

[0124] The correlation between each static coefficient and the overall fracture energy is calculated based on the correlation coefficient. The calculation formula is as follows:

[0125]

[0126] Specifically, this embodiment can take into account the impact of the road environment, vehicle load, road materials and other factors on cracks during road operation, effectively improving the accuracy and efficiency of crack detection and evaluation.

[0127] In this embodiment, determining the risk level of the area where the crack is located based on the collected deflection data and the preset allowable deflection value includes:

[0128] The collected deflection data is compared with the preset allowable deflection value. If the collected deflection data exceeds the preset allowable deflection value, the area is determined to be a high-risk area for structural failure.

[0129] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention, rather than to limit it. Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the above embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that they can still modify the technical solutions described in the above embodiments, or replace some or all of the technical features therein with equivalents.
