[0034] The technical solutions of the embodiments of this application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this application, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0035] It should be noted that in the embodiments of this application, the words "exemplary" or "for example" are used to indicate examples, illustrations, or explanations. Any embodiment or design scheme described as "exemplary" or "for example" in the embodiments of this application should not be construed as being more preferred or advantageous than other embodiments or design schemes. Specifically, the use of the words "exemplary" or "for example" is intended to present the relevant concepts in a specific manner.

[0036] To facilitate a clear description of the technical solutions of the embodiments of this application, the terms "first" and "second" are used in the embodiments of this application to distinguish the same or similar items with essentially the same function and effect. Those skilled in the art can understand that the terms "first" and "second" are not intended to limit the quantity or execution order.

[0037] As described in the background section, identifying the fracture surface type of metals plays a crucial role in materials failure analysis. It is the primary task of materials failure analysis and a key support for industrial systems and materials science. Determining the fracture surface type of metals can optimize materials research and development pathways, avoid excessive engineering costs, provide a basis for industry standard setting, and balance safety and efficiency.

[0038] However, the fracture type of a metal needs to be determined by experts based on their experience and other factors, and even experts may not be able to reach a consensus.

[0039] Currently, a deep learning-based method for identifying metal fracture types has been disclosed, using images of metal fracture surfaces as input. The deep learning network employed constructs a Gaussian Process (GP) model and an Upper Confidence Bound (UCB) function, while introducing an attention mechanism into the network structure to complete model creation. However, this method neglects in-depth analysis of the performance of the metal fracture surface itself.

[0040] A three-dimensional graph learning-based method for metal fracture identification is also disclosed. This method involves acquiring a three-dimensional image of the metal fracture cross-section, smoothing the image to obtain a smooth surface, and then performing operations such as cropping, projection, and flattening on the smooth surface to obtain cross-sections that can serve as nodes. The corresponding connected region cross-sectional features and the fractal dimension features of each connected region are extracted from these cross-sections to construct a node feature matrix and a neighbor matrix. A graph convolutional neural network is then used to process these matrices to identify the metal fracture type. However, this method involves overly complex processing of the original image, and the processing measures only consider the geometric morphology of the fracture, failing to adequately consider the material's inherent properties. Furthermore, the selected feature parameters are easily affected by external environmental disturbances.

[0041] To address the aforementioned problems, this application provides a method for identifying the ductile-brittle fracture properties of metals. This method acquires a dataset of microscopic features to be predicted on the fracture surface of the metal. Next, the dataset is input into a pre-trained microscopic feature recognition model to determine the quantity of each microscopic feature contained in the dataset. Then, the quantity of each microscopic feature in the dataset is input into a pre-trained regression prediction model to determine the ductile-brittle fracture properties of the metal.

[0042] As shown above, this scheme accurately classifies micro-features through a pre-trained micro-feature recognition model, achieving the identification of the type and quantity of micro-features. Then, the classification results (i.e., the quantity of each micro-feature in the dataset of images to be predicted) are input into a pre-trained regression prediction model. Through the analysis of the type, quantity, and proportion of micro-features by the regression prediction model, and based on the inherent correlation between the ductility and brittleness of metal fracture and micro-features (i.e., ductile fracture corresponds to a large number of dimples, and brittle fracture corresponds to cleavage or intergranular fracture), the ductility and brittleness of metal fracture are accurately inferred, fully considering the inherent characteristics of the material and exploring the performance of the metal fracture surface itself. This scheme, by combining the micro-feature recognition model and the regression prediction model, makes the identification of the ductility and brittleness of metal fracture less susceptible to disturbances from the external environment. Therefore, this scheme comprehensively solves the problem of how to accurately identify the ductility and brittleness of metal fracture.

[0043] The implementation environment of the above-mentioned method for identifying the brittle fracture properties of metals can be the metal fracture brittle fracture identification system provided in the embodiments of this application.

[0044] Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of a metal fracture ductility and brittleness identification system provided in an embodiment of this application. Figure 1 As shown, the metal fracture ductility identification system includes: a metal fracture ductility identification device 101 and a data storage device 102.

[0045] The metal fracture ductility identification device 101 and the data storage device 102 are connected in communication.

[0046] In practical applications, the metal fracture ductility and brittleness identification device 101 can be connected to any number of data storage devices 102. For ease of understanding, Figure 1 The following is an example of a metal fracture brittleness identification device 101 connected to a data storage device 102.

[0047] In this embodiment of the application, the data storage device 102 is used to provide data for the identification of metal fracture brittleness (e.g., a dataset of microscopic feature images to be predicted) to the metal fracture brittleness identification device 101, so that the metal fracture brittleness identification device 101 can identify the metal fracture brittleness based on the data sent by the data storage device 102.

[0048] Optionally, the physical devices of the metal fracture ductility identification device 101 and the data storage device 102 can be servers, terminals, or other types of electronic devices, and this application embodiment does not limit them.

[0049] Optionally, the aforementioned terminal may be a device that provides voice and / or data connectivity to a user, a handheld device with wireless connectivity, or other processing device connected to a wireless modem. The wireless terminal may communicate with one or more core networks via a radio access network (RAN). The wireless terminal may be a mobile terminal, such as a mobile phone (or "cellular" phone) and a computer with a mobile terminal, or a portable, pocket-sized, handheld, computer-embedded, or vehicle-mounted mobile device that exchanges voice and / or data with the radio access network, such as a mobile phone, tablet computer, laptop computer, netbook, or personal digital assistant (PDA).

[0050] Optionally, the server mentioned above can be one of the servers in a server cluster (composed of multiple servers), a chip in the server, a system-on-a-chip in the server, or a virtual machine (VM) deployed on a physical machine. This application embodiment does not limit this.

[0051] Optionally, the metal fracture ductility and brittleness identification device 101 and the data storage device 102 can be two independently configured devices, or they can be integrated into the same device. When the metal fracture ductility and brittleness identification device 101 and the data storage device 102 are integrated into the same device, the data storage device 102 can be a storage module (e.g., a database) of the metal fracture ductility and brittleness identification device 101.

[0052] It is easy to understand that when the metal fracture brittleness identification device 101 and the data storage device 102 are integrated into the same device, the communication method between the metal fracture brittleness identification device 101 and the data storage device 102 is the same as the communication between internal modules of the device. In this case, the communication process between the two is the same as when the metal fracture brittleness identification device 101 and the data storage device 102 are independent of each other.

[0053] For ease of understanding, this application will use the example of a metal fracture ductility and brittleness identification device 101 and a data storage device 102 operating independently.

[0054] The identification devices for metal fracture ductility and brittleness in a metal fracture identification system include, for example: Figure 2 The components included. The following are examples. Figure 2 Taking the metal fracture brittleness identification device shown as an example, the hardware structure of the metal fracture brittleness identification device is introduced.

[0055] Figure 2 This is a schematic diagram of the hardware structure of a metal fracture brittleness identification device provided in an embodiment of this application. Figure 2 As shown, the metal fracture ductility and brittleness identification device includes: a processor 201, a memory 202, a communication interface 203, and a bus 204. The processor 201, the memory 202, and the communication interface 203 can be connected via the bus 204.

[0056] Processor 201 is the control center of the metal fracture ductility and brittleness identification device. It can be a single processor or a collective term for multiple processing elements. For example, processor 201 can be a general-purpose central processing unit (CPU) or other general-purpose processors. Among them, the general-purpose processor can be a microprocessor or any conventional processor.

[0057] As one embodiment, processor 201 may include one or more CPUs, for example Figure 2 CPU0 and CPU1 are shown in the diagram.

[0058] The memory 202 may be a read-only memory (ROM) or other type of static storage device capable of storing static information and instructions, random access memory (RAM) or other type of dynamic storage device capable of storing information and instructions, or electrically erasable programmable read-only memory (EEPROM), disk storage media or other magnetic storage devices, or any other medium capable of carrying or storing desired program code in the form of instructions or data structures and accessible by a computer, but is not limited thereto.

[0059] In one possible implementation, the memory 202 can exist independently of the processor 201. The memory 202 can be connected to the processor 201 via a bus 204 and is used to store instructions or program code. When the processor 201 calls and executes the instructions or program code stored in the memory 202, it can implement the metal fracture ductility and brittleness identification method provided in the following embodiments of this application.

[0060] In this embodiment, the software programs stored in memory 202 differ for the metal fracture brittleness identification device, resulting in different functions implemented by the device. The functions performed by each device will be described in conjunction with the following flowchart.

[0061] In another possible implementation, the memory 202 can also be integrated with the processor 201.

[0062] The communication interface 203 is used for connecting the metal fracture ductility and brittleness identification device to other devices via a communication network, such as Ethernet, wireless access network, or wireless local area network (WLAN). The communication interface 203 may include a receiving unit for receiving data and a transmitting unit for transmitting data.

[0063] Bus 204 can be an industry standard architecture (ISA) bus, a peripheral component interconnect (PCI) bus, or an extended industry standard architecture (EISA) bus. This bus can be divided into address bus, data bus, control bus, etc. For ease of representation, Figure 2 The bus is represented by a single thick line, but this does not mean that there is only one bus or one type of bus.

[0064] It should be pointed out that, Figure 2 The structure shown does not constitute a limitation on the identification device for the brittle fracture properties of metals, except Figure 2 In addition to the components shown, the metal fracture brittleness identification device may include more or fewer components than shown, or combine certain components, or have different component arrangements.

[0065] The method for identifying the brittle fracture properties of metals provided in this application will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0066] The method for identifying the brittle fracture properties of metals provided in this application is applied to... Figure 1The metal fracture ductility identification system shown includes a metal fracture ductility identification device 101, such as... Figure 3 As shown in the embodiments of this application, a method for identifying the brittle fracture ductility of metals includes:

[0067] S301, The metal fracture brittleness identification device acquires a dataset of images of microscopic features to be predicted on the fracture surface of the metal.

[0068] Specifically, in order to identify the type of microscopic features on the fracture surface of a metal, it is necessary to first obtain a dataset of images of the microscopic features to be predicted on the fracture surface of the metal.

[0069] Specifically, the types and proportions of microscopic features of different fracture surfaces directly correspond to whether the metal material undergoes a large amount of plastic deformation and consumes a large amount of energy before fracture. Therefore, the toughness and brittleness of metal fracture can be inferred from the types and proportions of microscopic feature images on the fracture surface of the metal.

[0070] For example, in some embodiments, the microstructure includes at least one of dimples, intergranular structures, and cleavage.

[0071] Optionally, microscopic features may also include fatigue.

[0072] For example, when the amount of plastic deformation is large and the energy consumption is high, the corresponding microstructure is dimples, and the fracture is ductile fracture. When the amount of plastic deformation is small and the energy consumption is low, the corresponding microstructure is cleavage, and the fracture is brittle fracture. When the amount of plastic deformation is even smaller and the energy consumption is low, the corresponding microstructure may be intergranular, and the fracture may be brittle fracture.

[0073] S302, the metal fracture brittleness identification device inputs the micro-feature image dataset to be predicted into a pre-trained micro-feature recognition model to determine the quantity of each micro-feature contained in the micro-feature image dataset to be predicted.

[0074] Specifically, in order to determine the ductility and brittleness of metal fracture, it is necessary to determine the number of each micro-feature contained in the image dataset of the micro-features to be predicted.

[0075] For example, in some embodiments, the pre-trained micro-feature recognition model is determined by: obtaining a first training sample set; the first training sample set includes multiple first training samples and a label for each first training sample; the first training samples include a first micro-feature image dataset; the labels of the first training samples include micro-features corresponding to the first micro-feature image dataset; the first micro-feature image dataset is an image set containing a single type of micro-feature; based on the first training sample set, the original deep residual network model is trained to obtain a single-type micro-feature classification model; obtaining a second training sample set, the second training sample set includes multiple second training samples and a label for each second training sample; the second training samples include a second micro-feature image dataset; the labels of the second training samples include multiple types of micro-features corresponding to the second micro-feature image dataset; the second micro-feature image dataset is an image set containing multiple types of micro-features; based on the second training sample set, the original deep residual network model is trained and combined with the single-type micro-feature classification model to obtain the pre-trained micro-feature recognition model.

[0076] For example, the first training sample set includes: a dimple dataset, a grain-side dataset, and a cleavage dataset. The second training sample set consists of multiple types of microscopic feature datasets.

[0077] Optionally, during training, the single-class micro-feature classification model and the micro-feature recognition model can be adjusted in real time based on the loss function to obtain the best-performing single-class micro-feature classification model and micro-feature recognition model.

[0078] As can be seen from the above embodiments, by training the original deep residual network model with a dataset containing a single type of micro-feature, a model that can identify a single type of micro-feature is trained. Then, by training the original deep residual network model with a dataset containing multiple types of micro-features and combining it with a single type of micro-feature classification model, a model that can identify multiple types of micro-features is further obtained, making the identification of micro-feature types more accurate.

[0079] S303, the metal fracture brittleness identification device inputs the quantity of each micro-feature contained in the micro-feature image dataset to be predicted into a pre-trained regression prediction model to determine the brittleness of metal fracture.

[0080] Specifically, in order to determine the ductility and brittleness of metal fracture, the output of the micro-feature recognition model needs to be input into the regression prediction model to determine the ductility and brittleness of metal fracture.

[0081] Specifically, the ductile-brittle fracture of metals includes both ductile fracture and brittle fracture.

[0082] For example, in some embodiments, the pre-trained regression prediction model is determined by: obtaining a training sample set; the training sample set includes: multiple training samples, prediction features of each training sample, and a target to be predicted for each training sample; the training samples include a first micro-feature image dataset and a second micro-feature image dataset; the prediction features of the training samples include the quantity corresponding to each micro-feature contained in the first micro-feature image dataset and the quantity corresponding to each micro-feature contained in the second micro-feature image dataset; the target to be predicted for the training samples includes ductile fracture and brittle fracture; based on the training sample set, the original extreme gradient boosting tree model is trained to obtain the pre-trained regression prediction model.

[0083] Specifically, the first microscopic feature image and the second microscopic feature image together constitute the dataset of the regression prediction model.

[0084] For example, in the structured data of the regression prediction model, ductile fracture is treated as a value of 1 and brittle fracture is treated as a value of 0.

[0085] For example, in some embodiments, the pre-trained regression prediction model satisfies the following formula:

[0086]

[0087] Where x is the dataset of microscopic feature images to be predicted; η represents the ductility and brittleness of metal fracture corresponding to the dataset of microscopic feature images to be predicted; T represents the total number of decision trees in the model; η represents the learning rate; q represents the ductility and brittleness of metal fracture. t (x) is the index of the leaf node to which the micro-feature image dataset to be predicted is mapped in the t-th tree; The value corresponding to the index of the leaf node.

[0088] As demonstrated in the above embodiments, the number of various micro-features contained in the microscopic feature image of the metal fracture surface is used to analyze and determine whether the metal fractures ductilely or brittlely. This method deeply mines information from the metal fracture surface itself, fully considers the material's inherent characteristics, and is not easily affected by external interference.

[0089] Figure 4 This is a schematic flowchart illustrating a method for determining a fracture toughness / brittleness identification model, provided as an embodiment of this application. Figure 4 As shown, the model for identifying fracture ductility and brittleness includes:

[0090] S401. Obtain microscopic feature images.

[0091] Specifically, the device for identifying the brittleness and toughness of metal fractures acquires a first microscopic feature image and a second microscopic feature image for training the model.

[0092] S402. Create a dataset.

[0093] Specifically, the metal fracture brittleness identification device annotates the first microscopic feature image and divides it into a training dataset, a validation dataset, and a test dataset in an 8:1:1 ratio to obtain the first training sample set.

[0094] S403, Training a single-category micro-feature classification model.

[0095] Specifically, the metal fracture brittleness identification device trains the original deep residual network model based on the first training sample set to obtain a single-category micro-feature classification model.

[0097] Specifically, the metal fracture brittleness identification device annotates the second microscopic feature image using a single-category microscopic feature classification model, and divides it into a training dataset, a validation dataset, and a test dataset in an 8:1:1 ratio to determine the second training sample set. Then, the original deep residual network model is trained based on the second training sample set to obtain the microscopic feature recognition model.

[0101] Specifically, the metal fracture ductility identification device uses a micro-feature identification model and a training regression prediction model as the fracture ductility identification model.

[0102] The Receiver Operating Characteristic Curve (ROC) can be used as a performance metric for the model, and the best-performing completed regression prediction model can be saved.

[0103] Figure 5 This is a function graph of the performance index of a regression prediction model provided in an embodiment of this application. For example...

The AUC value of the regression prediction model is 0.9724, indicating that the model has strong discriminative ability and is effective in distinguishing the ductility and brittleness of metal fractures.
