[0083] The technical solution of the present invention will now be clearly and completely described with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some, not all, of the embodiments of the present invention. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0084] Figure 1 This is a flowchart of a vehicle road noise prediction method based on machine-data fusion provided in one or more embodiments of the present invention.

[0085] like Figure 1 As shown, the method includes the following steps:

[0086] Step S1: Construct a road noise hierarchical decomposition architecture based on road noise characteristics;

[0087] Step S2: Embed intelligent algorithms in the hierarchical decomposition architecture to obtain the correlation between target nodes at each level, and introduce key physical quantities to build a data-driven model that integrates physical priors;

[0088] Step S3: Establish an acoustic-structure interaction finite element model, collect noise transfer functions, and construct a TPA model;

[0089] Step S4: Integrate the data-driven model and the TPA model to generate prediction results for in-vehicle road noise.

[0090] Specifically, a road noise hierarchical decomposition architecture is constructed. For complex road structures, a data-driven method is used to predict the transmitted force from wheel excitation to the passive side of the vehicle body attachment point. For in-vehicle noise, the TPA method is used for accurate prediction. A road noise prediction method based on mechanism-data fusion is employed, such as... Figure 3 As shown. Due to the complex chassis structure and diverse transmission paths, the data-driven model only needs to select structural parameters related to the predicted performance to construct a hierarchical decomposition architecture, such as... Figure 4 As shown.

[0091] Furthermore, step S1 includes:

[0092] Step S11: Based on the road noise characteristics, simplify the road noise into 20-300Hz structure sound for processing;

[0093] Specifically, under conditions of moderate vehicle speed on rough road surfaces, vehicles easily generate structural road noise below 300Hz. This frequency band falls within the human hearing threshold range (20–20000Hz), significantly impacting in-vehicle acoustic comfort. Therefore, this invention simplifies road noise into structural sound within the 20–300Hz range for modeling and processing.

[0094] Step S12: Based on the understanding of different suspension types and structures, and combined with the main influencing factors of road noise and their transmission paths, starting from the target response of the whole vehicle, the road noise is decomposed layer by layer in a top-down manner to construct a hierarchical decomposition architecture.

[0095] Specifically, based on the clear understanding of different suspension types and structures, starting from the target response of the whole vehicle, road noise is decomposed layer by layer in a top-down manner to construct a hierarchical decomposition architecture of "vehicle level - system level - component level".

[0096] Step S12 also includes:

[0097] The first level of the hierarchical architecture is the noise response at the driver's right ear, which serves as the target evaluation indicator.

[0098] The second level is the body system, whose parameters include the passive force transmitted at each attachment point between the chassis and the body.

[0099] The sound transmission path from the passive side of the vehicle body attachment point to the driver's right ear is represented by the NTF between the first and second levels.

[0100] The third level is the chassis system, whose parameters include the vibration response and IPI on the active side of the body attachment points;

[0101] The fourth level is the excitation source layer, whose parameters include the vibration excitation signal at the steering knuckle and the dynamic characteristic parameters of the bushing.

[0102] Furthermore, step S2 includes:

[0103] Step S21: Collect or test data based on the shelf decomposition architecture;

[0104] Step S22: Construct the LSTM model;

[0105] Step S23: Incorporate IPI into the model loss function design in the LSTM output layer to construct PINNs;

[0106] Step S24: Use a genetic algorithm to optimize the model loss weights and IPI loss weights in the loss function.

[0107] Specifically, the data collected in step S21 covers all key parameters in the hierarchical architecture except for NTF. These include: the passive end force-frequency curve, the active end acceleration response-frequency curve, the noise response-frequency curve at the driver's right ear, and the active end IPI-frequency curve.

[0108] In step S22,

[0109] In the hierarchical decomposition architecture of road noise, a multi-layer LSTM algorithm is introduced between the target nodes in the upper and lower levels to construct a data-driven model, and the data-driven model is trained based on the training set. The LSTM structure formula is as follows:

[0110] ;

[0111] ;

[0112] ;

[0113] ;

[0114] In the formula For the Gate of Oblivion For memory units, For input gate, For output gate, For the sigmoid function, For the input at the next time step, This is the hidden state of the output from the previous moment. for The corresponding weights for The corresponding weights for Corresponding bias;

[0115] Step S2 also includes:

[0116] The collected data covers all key parameters in the hierarchical architecture except for NTF. Specifically, this includes: the passive force-frequency curve, the active acceleration response-frequency curve, the noise response-frequency curve at the driver's right ear, and the active IPI-frequency curve.

[0117] Step S22 includes the following steps:

[0118] Train and build a third-level LSTM prediction model for chassis system performance;

[0119] Train and build a second-level LSTM prediction model for vehicle body system performance;

[0120] The unknown parameters at each level are predicted by the output of the next level, thus realizing bottom-up hierarchical recursive modeling;

[0121] Specifically, the model is evaluated by inputting the trained data-driven model into the test set, and the prediction performance of the data-driven model is determined based on the mean squared error, an evaluation metric for the data-driven model.

[0122] Step S23 includes the following steps:

[0123] Based on the second-level LSTM prediction model of the vehicle body system performance, IPI is incorporated into the model loss function design to construct the physical information neural network PINNs.

[0124] Specifically, the calculation process for step S23 is as follows:

[0125] Acceleration can be represented by impedance because the stronger the impedance of acceleration, the smaller the displacement response of the system. In calculations, the dynamic stiffness at the attachment point is usually represented by the origin acceleration admittance. The formula for its calculation is:

[0126] ;

[0127] In the formula, The stimulus received by the attachment point To excite the angular frequency, For the excitation frequency, To provide dynamic stiffness at the attachment point, For acceleration response.

[0128] PINNs are structurally similar to traditional LSTMs, but the output layer introduces a local loss term based on IPI calculation. By enhancing the training feedback on dynamic stiffness through backpropagation, the model's ability to focus on key local features is improved. The network structure is as follows: Figure 6 As shown. The total loss function of the network is defined as the formula:

[0129] ;

[0130] in, Represented as the total loss function;

[0131] The weighting coefficients, represented as data loss terms, are used to control... The proportion of total losses;

[0132] Represented as the weighting coefficients of the IPI loss term, controlling The proportion of total losses;

[0133] This is represented as a data loss term, used to measure the error between the predicted result and the actual data, reflecting the degree of fit of the model to the original data;

[0134] It is represented as a local loss term calculated based on IPI, used to improve the model's ability to focus on key local features.

[0135] Specifically, in another embodiment, an excitation F is applied to the vehicle chassis attachment point, which includes the connection point between the suspension and the vehicle body, and the excitation frequency of the attachment point is measured. and the corresponding acceleration response At the same time, obtain the dynamic stiffness of the attachment point. .

[0136] use The formula, substituted into the measured excitation frequency and the dynamic stiffness of the attachment point Calculate the attachment point value.

[0137] When the excitation frequency =50Hz, dynamic stiffness =10 6 When N / m, then we can get By comparing IPI at different frequencies and with different dynamic stiffness, the influence of the dynamic stiffness of the attachment point on the acceleration response is analyzed, and its contribution to vehicle road noise is evaluated.

[0138] A PINNs model is constructed, with input data including chassis vibration and attachment point excitation. During model training, road noise prediction is obtained through the total loss function calculation formula, providing a basis for automotive acoustic design optimization.

[0139] in, Ensure that the model fits the input and output data. (Based on IPI calculations) this guides the model to focus on key local features such as the dynamic stiffness of the attachment point. Setting =0.7, =0.3 (the weight can be adjusted according to actual needs), so that the model can learn the patterns in the data while following the physical laws reflected by IPI.

[0140] Specifically, step S24 involves using a genetic algorithm to optimize the model loss weights and IPI loss weights in the loss function. This includes: using the model loss weights and IPI loss weights as optimization variables, and the prediction accuracy of PINNs as the fitness function, performing GA optimization. The specific process includes: first, initializing a weight population containing multiple individuals, each individual consisting of a set of weight parameters for model loss and IPI loss; then, training each individual in PINNs and calculating the fitness function based on the prediction results; next, performing a selection operation on the population based on the fitness values, retaining individuals with excellent performance; subsequently, generating a new generation of weight combinations through crossover and mutation operations to expand the search space and improve global optimization capabilities; the above process continues iterating until the convergence condition is met or a preset number of generations is reached, ultimately obtaining the optimal loss weight combination, thereby improving the performance of the PINNs model in local feature extraction and overall prediction.

[0141] Specifically, by focusing on the noise propagation chain, a PINNs model with IPI physical constraints is used for road noise prediction, and a genetic algorithm (GA) is used to optimize the model loss weights (ω) in the loss function. data ) and IPI loss weight (ω) IPI This improves prediction accuracy.

[0142] Model loss weights (ω) data ) and IPI loss weight (ω) IPI The value range is [0,1], and ω satisfies data +ω IPI =1, reasonably allocate the weight of data fitting and physical laws.

[0143] The fitness function is determined by using the reciprocal of the mean absolute error (MAE) of PINNs in predicting noise in the driver's right ear as the fitness. The smaller the MAE, the higher the fitness, which means the better the model's prediction accuracy.

[0144] Generate an initial population containing a number of individuals, each individual forming a group (ω). data ω IPI For example: Individual 1: ω data =0.4, ω IPI =0.6; Individual 2: ω data =0.8, ω IPI =0.2; The weights of all individuals are randomly generated in the range [0,1], and satisfy ω data +ω IPI =1.

[0145] For each individual, the weights are substituted into the total loss function formula of PINNs. PINNs learns the mapping from "wheel vibration, k, and f" to "driver's right ear noise," and simultaneously... The constraint model is used to obtain the physical properties of the dynamic stiffness of the attachment point.

[0146] The model was validated by creating 20 new test samples, and the MAE of predicted noise and measured noise was calculated and then converted into fitness.

[0147] Sort the individuals by fitness from high to low, retain the 20 best individuals, randomly pair the 20 selected individuals, perform weighted cross-matching on each pair, and supplement the population to 50 individuals. For the newly generated 30 individuals, perform weighted mutation with a 5% probability.

[0148] The optimal weights are obtained by iterating through 100 generations of repeated training and fitness calculation.

[0149] The PINNs model is retrained based on the optimal weights.

[0150] Furthermore, step S3 includes:

[0151] Step S31: Define the passive side of the vehicle body attachment point as the excitation point of the transfer function, and the driver's right ear noise (20-300Hz) as the response point;

[0152] Step S32: Finite element modeling of interior and vehicle body;

[0153] Step S33: Finite element modeling of the acoustic cavity;

[0154] Step S34: Calculate the NTF (Network Transfer Function) for excitation and response points.

[0155] Furthermore, step S3 also includes:

[0156] Step S32 includes the following steps:

[0157] The OptiStruct module of Hypermesh software was used to mesh the accessory models, which included the body-in-white model and interior trim. Corresponding element properties and material parameters were then assigned to complete the finite element model of the interior and body. The accessory models included the body-in-white model and interior trim.

[0158] Step S33 includes the following steps:

[0159] Using the seat geometry model, body-in-white structure and closures, including side doors, sunroof, and tail door, as input, a finite element model of the acoustic cavity is established. The interior body model and the acoustic cavity model are then assembled to construct an acoustic-structure coupling finite element model.

[0160] Step S34 includes the following sub-steps:

[0161] A unit load of 1 N is applied in the X, Y, and Z directions at each loading point, and frequency response function analysis is performed to calculate the NTF of each response point relative to the loading point.

[0162] Specifically, the transmission relationship of noise from the passive end of the vehicle body attachment point to the driver's right ear inside the vehicle is obtained by matrix inversion. The matrix inversion formula is as follows.

[0163] ;

[0164] In the formula: Input the excitation vector to the system. The response vector at the response point, The transfer function from input to response;

[0165] Furthermore, step S4 includes:

[0166] Step S41: In the road noise hierarchy architecture, the force transmitted from the steering knuckle excitation to the passive end of the vehicle body is predicted using data-driven methods.

[0167] Step S42: In the road noise hierarchy architecture, the noise transmitted from the passive end of the vehicle body to the driver's right ear is predicted using TPA;

[0168] Step S43: Use an ensemble algorithm to develop a fast prediction interface.

[0169] Specifically, in the road noise hierarchy architecture (S41), the force transmitted from the steering knuckle excitation to the passive end of the vehicle body is predicted using a data-driven method. Key parameters required in each level, if not directly obtainable, are predicted and compensated by the traditional LSTM model constructed in the lower layer. Specifically, the force transmitted to the passive end of the vehicle body in the second level is modeled and predicted by the third level based on the PINNs model, achieving layer-by-layer mapping and feedback of the structural response.

[0170] Furthermore, including:

[0171] Step S41 includes the following steps:

[0172] The third-level deep neural network uses the vibration excitation signal of the steering knuckle as input to predict the vibration acceleration response and IPI of the active end connection point of the chassis system;

[0173] The second-level deep neural network uses the output of the third level and the bushing dynamic stiffness parameters as input to predict the transmitted force at the passive end connection point of the vehicle body system.

[0174] Specifically, step S42 includes the following sub-steps: further developing a visual, fast prediction interface, such as...
