Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of material fatigue analysis, more particularly to a method for evaluating fatigue damage of offshore structures and related equipment. BACKGROUND

[0002] Fatigue damage prediction of structures under random loads is a core technical problem in the field of offshore engineering, wind power equipment, etc., and is directly related to the safety and reliability of equipment in service. Offshore structures such as floating platforms and wind towers bear random loads such as wind, waves and currents for a long time, and their stress responses exhibit typical Gaussian broadband random process characteristics, with not only multi-band energy distribution but also often multi-peak spectral shape, which makes the accuracy and efficiency of fatigue damage evaluation a key demand that needs to be solved in the industry.

[0003] Current mainstream fatigue analysis methods are divided into two categories: time domain and frequency domain, both of which have defects that are difficult to avoid. Time domain methods rely on complete stress history records to identify load cycles through rainflow counting to calculate fatigue accumulation, although they have high precision, but they are highly dependent on long-term signal and multi-point data, leading to a sharp increase in calculation and storage, which completely cannot meet the engineering needs of real-time evaluation, online monitoring and large-scale working condition combination analysis. The frequency domain method estimates fatigue damage through spectral moment characteristic quantities, has the advantages of high calculation efficiency and easy connection with spectral analysis, however, most methods are based on narrowband assumption or empirical bandwidth correction, and the description of stress distribution characteristics of Gaussian broadband signals is seriously insufficient, and in the working conditions of wideband, multi-peak or significant spectral shape change, the prediction deviation is large. At the same time, the fatigue properties of a large number of metal materials in engineering are not fixed, there is a fatigue limit, and the fatigue characteristic curve often exhibits multi-slope characteristics, while traditional frequency domain models are mostly constructed for single-slope fatigue characteristic curves, even if the spectral width correction is introduced, there is also a lack of systematic mapping mechanism from power spectrum parameters to rainflow stress range probability distribution, which cannot naturally and uniformly handle such multi-slope characteristics and fatigue limit effects in the frequency domain.

[0059] As shown in the figure, the method can include: Figure 1

[0060] Step S1, obtaining the stress time history and duration of offshore structure under random load, and obtaining the power spectral density function by Fourier transform.

[0061] ​Specifically, to accurately obtain stress data, monitoring equipment needs to be arranged at the fatigue critical parts of offshore structures, which are usually areas with concentrated stress and prone to fatigue damage, such as the connection between the column and the deck of a floating platform, the flange interface of a wind tower, etc. When installing, the monitoring equipment needs to be firmly combined with the structure surface to prevent signal distortion due to loosening. The sampling frequency of the monitoring equipment needs to be set in combination with the random load characteristics of the structure to ensure that the frequency characteristics of the load can be completely captured, and the data collection time needs to be sufficient, at least containing multiple load cycle periods, to ensure the representativeness of the data. The starting and ending time is recorded synchronously during the collection process to determine the duration of the stress time history. The collected raw stress data is preprocessed to eliminate the drift interference caused by temperature changes and irrelevant high-frequency noise, and then the stress signal in the time domain is converted to the frequency domain signal through Fourier transform, and then the power spectral density function is obtained, which can clearly reflect the energy distribution of the stress signal at different frequency components, providing a basis for subsequent analysis.

[0062] Step S2, extracting spectral moment parameters representing the energy distribution of the frequency domain according to the power spectral density function, and constructing a pair of characteristic spectral width parameters.

[0063] Specifically, the power spectral density function fully presents the frequency domain characteristics of the stress signal, and based on this function, multiple spectral moment parameters of different orders can be extracted, which represent the energy distribution characteristics of the frequency domain from different dimensions. For example, some spectral moment parameters can reflect the total energy size of the signal, some can reflect the center of gravity frequency position of the energy concentration, and some can describe the dispersion degree of the frequency distribution and the steepness of the spectrum shape, etc. After extracting these spectral moment parameters, a pair of characteristic spectral width parameters composed of two characteristic parameters is constructed based on their respective physical meanings. One of the characteristic parameters is mainly used to describe the concentration degree of the frequency spectrum width, reflecting the aggregation or dispersion state of the energy on the frequency axis; the other characteristic parameter focuses on the steepness of the frequency spectrum shape, reflecting the degree of energy change of different frequency components. Through the combination of these two parameters, the frequency energy distribution characteristics of the stress signal can be fully and accurately described, providing key basis for subsequent model establishment and analysis.

[0064] Step S3, establishing a stress distribution moment parameter based on the pair of characteristic spectral width parameters and the inverse slope of the S-N curve of the offshore structure material.

[0065] Specifically, first, the S-N curve of the metal material used in the offshore structure is obtained through a standard material fatigue test, which reflects the fatigue life characteristics of the material under different stress cycles. The inverse slope of the curve is determined through fitting analysis of the test data, which is a key indicator of material fatigue sensitivity and is directly related to the damage accumulation law of the material under stress. Then, the characteristic spectral width parameter obtained in step S2 is used as an important correction factor, combined with the inverse slope of the material S-N curve determined, to construct the stress distribution moment parameter. In the construction process, a plurality of standard specimen data with known fatigue damage results are used for calibration to ensure that the parameter can accurately associate the frequency energy distribution characteristics with the fatigue characteristics of the material, making the stress distribution moment parameter a core bridge connecting signal analysis and material fatigue performance, and providing a reliable intermediate parameter for subsequent fatigue damage calculation.

[0066] Step S4, if the S-N curve of the offshore structure material is single slope, the fatigue damage amount is directly calculated in the frequency domain based on the stress distribution moment parameter, the spectral moment parameter and the material constant.

[0067] Specifically, when the S-N curve of the material presents a single change slope in the entire stress range, it indicates that the fatigue characteristics of the material are relatively stable, and the linear cumulative damage theory can be used as the calculation basis to directly construct the damage calculation model in the frequency domain. In the calculation, the characteristic frequency of the stress cycle is first determined in combination with the spectral moment parameter, and then the total number of stress cycles in the entire monitoring period is calculated according to the stress time history duration obtained in step S1. Subsequently, the stress distribution moment parameter, the material constant and the total number of cycles are combined to directly obtain the fatigue damage amount through frequency domain calculation. This calculation method does not need to convert the frequency domain signal back to the time domain for load cycle counting, greatly simplifying the calculation process, improving the analysis efficiency, and at the same time ensuring the accuracy of the calculation result. The value of the damage amount can be directly used to judge whether the structure has occurred fatigue failure or the current fatigue damage degree.

[0068] After determining that the S-N curve of the material used in the offshore structure presents a single slope, a plurality of key parameters need to be integrated when calculating the fatigue damage amount: the spectral moment parameter representing the frequency domain characteristics of the stress signal, the material constant reflecting the fatigue performance of the material itself, the stress distribution moment parameter connecting the frequency domain characteristics and the fatigue characteristics of the material, and the time constant corresponding to the stress time history, the inverse slope of the material S-N curve, etc. By combining these parameters for operation, the fatigue damage amount of the structure under the current random load can be obtained, and the value of the damage amount can directly reflect the accumulated fatigue damage degree of the structure, which can be used as a direct basis for judging whether the structure has reached the fatigue failure state, and provides key support for the safety and reliability evaluation of the offshore structure during service.

[0069] The calculation formula of the fatigue damage amount in the single-slope form is:

[0070]

[0071] wherein D is the fatigue damage amount, is the stress distribution moment parameter, C is a material constant, T is a time constant, is the inverse slope.

[0072] In step S5, if the S-N curve of the offshore structure material is in a multi-slope form, a dimensionless stress range distribution model is obtained by constructing a two-component probability density function based on the stress distribution moment parameter, the spectral moment parameter and the characteristic spectral width parameter pair, and a segmented damage integral calculation is performed to obtain the fatigue damage amount.

[0073] Specifically, the S-N curve of many engineering metal materials will present different change slopes before and after the fatigue limit, that is, the fatigue characteristics of the low stress section and the high stress section are different, at this time, a calculation method that is more suitable for the actual characteristics of the material needs to be used. First, the related parameters in the characteristic spectral width parameter pair are used as weight distribution basis to construct a probability density function composed of two components, one component is used to describe the stress distribution characteristics in the high stress range, and the other component corresponds to the distribution of the low stress range, and through this two-component model, the actual distribution law of the stress range can be accurately fitted. At the same time, the actual stress range is converted into a dimensionless form to form a standardized stress range distribution model. Then, the fatigue limit of the material is taken as the dividing point, and the fatigue damage integral calculation is performed on the low stress section and the high stress section respectively, and the damage results of the two sections are superimposed to obtain the total fatigue damage amount. This method can fully adapt to the multi-slope fatigue characteristics of the material and effectively improve the accuracy of damage assessment under complex fatigue working conditions.

[0074] As can be seen from the above technical solutions, the offshore structure fatigue damage assessment method and related equipment provided by the embodiments of the present application first acquire the stress time history and duration of the offshore structure under random load, and obtain the power spectral density function through Fourier transform; then the spectral moment parameter representing the frequency domain energy distribution is extracted according to the function, and the characteristic spectral width parameter pair is constructed; then the stress distribution moment parameter is established in combination with the inverse slope of the S-N curve of the offshore structure material; finally, according to the type of the material S-N curve, the corresponding calculation method is selected, when the S-N curve is in a single-slope form, the fatigue damage amount is directly calculated by using the stress distribution moment parameter, the spectral moment parameter and the material constant, and when the S-N curve is in a multi-slope form, a two-component probability density function is constructed in combination with the characteristic spectral width parameter pair, and the result is obtained through segmented damage integral.

[0075] The application can meet the engineering requirements of real-time evaluation, online monitoring and large-scale working condition combination analysis by analyzing the frequency domain characteristic parameters without relying on complete long-term stress records, greatly reducing the calculation and storage costs. By extracting the spectral moment parameters and constructing the characteristic spectral width parameter pair, the multi-band energy distribution and multi-peak spectral shape characteristics of the Gaussian wideband signal can be accurately captured, and the prediction accuracy in the wideband, multi-peak or significantly changed spectral shape working condition can be significantly improved. In view of the difference of material fatigue characteristics, a unified analysis framework is established by the stress distribution moment parameters, the fatigue damage amount can be directly calculated in the single slope S-N curve scene, and the dimensionless stress range distribution model is constructed by the double component probability density function in the multi-slope scene, the segmented accurate integration is realized, the fatigue characteristic curves and fatigue limit effect of different types of materials are effectively compatible, and efficient, accurate and widely applicable offshore structure fatigue evaluation is realized.

[0076] In some embodiments of the application, the process of step S2, extracting the spectral moment parameters representing the frequency energy distribution according to the power spectral density function, and constructing the characteristic spectral width parameter pair, can specifically include:

[0077] Step S21, according to the power spectral density function, the 0th, 1st, 2nd and 4th spectral moment parameters are extracted by integrating the power spectral density with different orders of frequency.

[0078] Step S22, based on the extracted spectral moment parameters, two characteristic spectral width parameters representing the bandwidth and spectral shape distribution of the signal are constructed by combination operation to form the characteristic spectral width parameter pair.

[0079] Specifically, the power spectral density function is the core basis for reflecting the frequency energy distribution of the stress signal. When extracting the spectral moment parameters, the different order powers of frequency are associated with the power spectral density function, and the spectral moment parameters of different orders are obtained by integral operation. The 0th spectral moment parameter can reflect the total energy level of the stress signal in the frequency domain, the 1st spectral moment parameter can be associated with the energy concentration corresponding to the center frequency position, and the 2nd and 4th spectral moment parameters can reflect the dispersion degree of frequency distribution and the steepness characteristics of spectral shape from different dimensions, respectively. These spectral moment parameters of different orders together constitute the basic feature set for describing the frequency energy distribution.

[0080] Based on the spectral moment parameters, two characteristic spectral width parameters are obtained by combination operation. One of the characteristic spectral width parameters is mainly used to represent the bandwidth of the stress signal spectrum, which can reflect the aggregation or dispersion degree of energy on the frequency axis; the other characteristic spectral width parameter focuses on the distribution characteristics of the spectral shape, which can reflect the energy variation law corresponding to different frequency components. The characteristic spectral width parameter pair can more accurately and comprehensively characterize the frequency domain distribution characteristics of the stress signal, and provide key frequency domain feature support for subsequent establishment of stress distribution moment parameters and calculation of fatigue damage amount.

[0081] Obtaining stress response time history of a structure under random load and its duration T, and determining the S-N curve material constant and the inverse slope corresponding to the position of the structure, when the S-N curve has multiple slope characteristics, obtaining the parameter pairs of each slope segment and the corresponding stress range segmentation interval .

[0082] Corresponding to the stress time history Fourier transform is performed to obtain the stress power spectral density function , and the spectral moment parameter representing the frequency domain energy distribution is calculated . The calculation formula of the spectral moment parameter is:

[0083]

[0084] The two characteristic spectral width parameters representing the signal bandwidth and spectral shape distribution are:

[0085]

[0086] wherein, is the order spectral moment parameter, is the power spectral density function, and is the characteristic spectral width parameter.

[0087] Under the condition of considering the inverse slope k of the material S-N curve, the stress distribution moment parameter is introduced, and the function mapping relationship between , and k is established:

[0088]

[0089] wherein, the function is calibrated through experimental data and / or numerical simulation results, and can be obtained by polynomial fitting, machine learning model, etc.

[0090] In some embodiments of the present application, the process of establishing the stress distribution moment parameter based on the characteristic spectral width parameter pair and the inverse slope of the offshore structure material S-N curve is introduced, which can specifically include:

[0091] Step S31, obtaining a calibration mapping function, the calibration mapping function is calibrated based on the Gaussian wideband stress signal sample and the corresponding accurate damage value, taking the characteristic spectral width parameter and the inverse slope as input, and taking the statistical moment reflecting the actual damage distribution as the fitting target to obtain;

[0092] Step S32: Input the characteristic spectral width parameter and the inverse slope of the SN curve of the marine structural material into the calibration mapping function, and obtain the stress distribution moment parameter through mapping calculation.

[0093] Specifically, the first step is to construct a Gaussian broadband stress signal sample library covering different frequency domain characteristics. The samples should include stress signal data of different bandwidths and spectral shapes commonly found in marine structures to ensure the applicability of the function. Simultaneously, for each sample, accurate fatigue damage values ​​are obtained through high-precision time-domain fatigue tests or field measurements, serving as a reference benchmark for fitting. Subsequently, using the obtained characteristic spectral width parameters and the inverse slope of the SN curve of the marine structure material as input variables, and the statistical moments reflecting the actual fatigue damage distribution as the fitting target, regression analysis and parameter calibration of multiple sets of sample data are used to determine the mapping relationship between the input and the target, ultimately obtaining the calibrated mapping function. The core function of this function is to establish a quantitative correlation between frequency domain characteristic parameters and material fatigue damage characteristics, ensuring the accuracy of subsequent parameter calculations.

[0094] The constructed characteristic spectral width parameter pair, along with the inverse slope of the SN curve determined through material fatigue testing, are simultaneously input into a calibrated mapping function. The mapping operation is then completed using the function's pre-defined correlation logic. This process fuses the signal characteristics (characteristic spectral width parameter) at the frequency domain with the material's inherent fatigue sensitivity characteristics (inverse slope). The resulting stress distribution moment parameter is a crucial intermediate parameter connecting frequency domain signal analysis and material fatigue damage calculation. Its value quantifies the influence of stress signal characteristics on material fatigue damage, providing a core quantitative basis for subsequent fatigue damage calculations.

[0095] Based on this, such as Figure 2 As shown, when the SN curve of the marine structural material is in a multi-slope form, step S5, based on the stress distribution moment parameter, the spectral moment parameter, and the characteristic spectral width parameter pair, constructs a dimensionless stress range distribution model by a two-component probability density function, and performs piecewise damage integral calculation to obtain the fatigue damage amount. Specifically, this process may include:

[0096] Step S51: Based on the characteristic spectral width parameter pair, construct a dimensionless stress range binary probability density function composed of the superposition of two exponential function components. The dimensionless stress range binary probability density function contains multiple undetermined coefficients.

[0097] Specifically, considering the fatigue characteristics of the material corresponding to the multi-slope S-N curve in different stress ranges, the stress distribution characteristics of the high and low stress intervals need to be fitted by the probability density function of two components, so two exponential function components are selected for superposition, each component corresponds to the distribution law of a type of stress range. At the same time, the actual stress range is converted into a dimensionless form to realize the standardized description of the stress distribution under different working conditions, and the multiple undetermined coefficients in the function need to be determined combined with subsequent parameters, leaving adjustment space for accurate fitting of the actual stress distribution.

[0098] Step S52, the stress distribution moment parameter is equivalent to the dimensionless stress range statistical moment represented by the double-component probability density function with the material inverse slope as the order, and a constraint equation set about the undetermined coefficient is established.

[0099] Specifically, the stress distribution moment parameter is the core parameter related to the frequency domain characteristics and the material fatigue characteristics, and the dimensionless stress range statistical moment of the double-component probability density function under the order of the material inverse slope can reflect the fatigue damage related statistical characteristics corresponding to the distribution. The equivalent matching of the two can make the distribution characteristics of the function consistent with the actual damage law. Based on this equivalent relationship, multiple equations about the undetermined coefficients of the function can be derived, and then a constraint equation set is formed to provide a basis for determining the undetermined coefficients.

[0100] Step S53, the calibration mapping function is combined with the constraint equation set to solve and determine all the undetermined coefficients in the double-component probability density function, and a dimensionless stress range distribution model is generated.

[0101] Specifically, the mapping function calibrated in the step is called, the correlation logic between the frequency domain parameters and the damage characteristics established by it is used, the constraint equation set is combined, and the specific values of all the undetermined coefficients in the double-component probability density function are determined by simultaneous solution. At this time, the form and parameters of the function have been determined, which can be used as a model that can accurately describe the dimensionless stress range distribution law of the current stress signal, and provides a basis for subsequent segmented damage calculation.

[0102] Step S54, determine the normalized stress range interval corresponding to each slope segment of the offshore structure material S-N curve, and substitute the dimensionless stress range distribution model into the damage integral expression of each slope segment to calculate the fatigue damage of each segment.

[0103] Specifically, based on the slope change nodes of the SN curve of marine structural materials, different stress range intervals are divided, and each interval is converted into a normalized interval corresponding to the dimensionless stress range. Since different slope segments correspond to different fatigue damage laws of materials, a damage integral expression needs to be constructed separately for each interval. Then, the generated dimensionless stress range distribution model is substituted into the corresponding expression to complete the integral calculation and obtain the fatigue damage amount corresponding to each slope segment.

[0104] Step S55: According to the linear fatigue accumulation criterion, sum the fatigue damage calculated from all the slope segments of the SN curve of the marine structural material to obtain the total fatigue damage.

[0105] Specifically, the core principle of the linear fatigue accumulation criterion is that the fatigue damage generated by a structure under different stress levels is independent and linearly superimposed. The amount of fatigue damage corresponding to each stress segment is equal to the ratio of the actual number of cycles under that stress segment to the fatigue life of the material under that stress level. When the sum of the damage corresponding to each stress segment reaches 1, the structure is judged to have suffered fatigue failure. Based on this criterion, the fatigue damage calculated from each slope segment of the SN curve for marine structural materials is superimposed and summed. The final total fatigue damage can comprehensively reflect the overall cumulative fatigue damage degree of the structure under the current random load. Its magnitude can be directly used as a key indicator to determine whether the structure is close to or has reached the fatigue failure state, providing a direct quantitative basis for the service safety and reliability assessment of marine structures.

[0106] The probability density function of the two components is:

[0107]

[0108] A two-component probability density function is used to describe the distribution of dimensionless stress range. It takes the form of a superposition of two exponential function components, where the parameters of the two components ( and These correspond to the distribution characteristics of low-to-medium stress and high-stress ranges, respectively. The dual-component structure is designed to adapt to the differences in fatigue characteristics of materials in different stress ranges under multi-slope SN curves, enabling a more accurate fit to the distribution of the actual stress range and providing a basic distribution model for subsequent segmented damage calculations.

[0109] The formula for calculating the fatigue damage amount in the multi-slope form is as follows:

[0110]

[0111] in, Let be the probability density function for the dimensionless stress range z, and D be the fatigue damage amount. and for characterizing the contribution of the low-to-moderate stress component to the damage, and for characterizing the contribution of the high stress component to the damage, n is the number of slope segments of the S-N curve of the offshore structure material, and are the inverse slope and the material constant of the i-th slope segment of the S-N curve of the offshore structure material, respectively, and are the lower and upper stress range limits of the i-th slope segment, is the order spectral moment parameter, and T is the time constant.

[0112] The calculation formula of the fatigue damage amount in the multi-slope form is the calculation core of the fatigue damage in the multi-slope scenario: based on the time constant and the spectral moment parameter, in combination with the double-component probability density function, the total damage is obtained by segmenting and integrating the stress range interval corresponding to each slope segment of the S-N curve, and then superimposing the damage amounts of each segment. In the formula, by distinguishing the inverse slope, the material constant and the upper and lower stress range limits of different slope segments, the fatigue characteristics of the multi-slope material are adapted, and the final calculation result directly reflects the total fatigue damage degree of the structure.

[0113] A kind of offshore structure fatigue damage assessment device provided by the embodiments of the present application is described below, and the offshore structure fatigue damage assessment device described below can be correspondingly referred to with the offshore structure fatigue damage assessment method described above.

[0114] Referring to Figure 3 , Figure 3 is a schematic diagram of a kind of offshore structure fatigue damage assessment device disclosed by the embodiments of the present application.

[0122] The present application can fully meet the engineering requirements of real-time evaluation, online monitoring, and large-scale working condition combination analysis by analyzing based on frequency domain characteristic parameters without relying on complete long-term stress records, and greatly reduces the calculation and storage costs.
