TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of intelligent monitoring of bridge expansion joints, and particularly relates to a bridge expansion joint acoustic monitoring method based on a beamforming microphone array. BACKGROUND
[0002] The expansion joint is an important connecting device between bridge spans or between the bridge span and the abutment, and its function is to adapt to the displacement of the bridge structure caused by factors such as temperature changes, concrete shrinkage and creep, and loads. The health condition of the expansion joint is directly related to the driving comfort and the safety of the bridge structure. Once diseases such as loosening, fracture, and jamming occur, not only will a huge impact noise be produced, but also irreversible damage will be caused to the main structure of the bridge. Therefore, long-term, continuous, and reliable state monitoring of the bridge expansion joint has great engineering significance.
[0003] At present, the monitoring technology of the bridge expansion joint mainly includes the following two types: (1) manual inspection and visual detection method: relying on technical personnel to conduct regular on-site inspection or using a vehicle-mounted or unmanned aerial vehicle-mounted camera to collect and identify images. This method is highly subjective, inefficient, and cannot achieve real-time monitoring, and it is difficult to find hidden or small structural damage; contact sensor monitoring method: including installing acceleration sensors, displacement meters, strain gauges, and the like near the expansion joint. These methods can usually provide direct structural response data, but the installation process often requires invasive operations such as drilling on the bridge structure, which is complex and costly, and the sensors themselves are easily damaged in harsh road environments, and long-term reliability is challenging; (2) acoustic monitoring method: this is a new non-contact and low-cost monitoring method, and its basic principle is that when a vehicle passes through the expansion joint, a unique acoustic signal will be generated, and the time domain and frequency domain characteristics of the signal are closely related to the health status of the expansion joint. By analyzing the sound signal, the state of the expansion joint can be evaluated and fault diagnosis can be performed.
[0004] The existing acoustic monitoring method still has significant limitations in practical application: (1) the acoustic environment of the bridge is complex, and the monitoring signal is easily overwhelmed by strong traffic noise (such as engine roar, tire rolling noise), wind noise, rain noise, etc., resulting in a very low signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) and difficulty in extracting effective features; (2) the existing microphone array structure is rigid, and some studies attempt to use a microphone array for sound source enhancement and positioning, but the spacing between the microphones is usually fixed and cannot be adjusted. Since the coherence of the sound field is closely related to the frequency and the spacing between the microphones, a fixed array geometry cannot adapt to the changing environmental noise field and different types of expansion joint sound sources, resulting in a decline in the performance of the beamforming algorithm in some frequency bands, and the ability to suppress noise and enhance the target sound source is limited.
[0005] In summary, the prior art lacks a bridge expansion joint acoustic monitoring system that can adapt to complex noise environments, dynamically optimize array configuration to maximize signal-to-noise ratio, and has high-precision synchronous acquisition capability. The present application aims to overcome the above shortcomings and provide an efficient, reliable, non-contact automated monitoring solution. SUMMARY
