Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of tunnel and underground engineering technology, and in particular to an intelligent detection method for internal cavities in grouting bodies based on impact echo and deep learning. Background Technology

[0002] The information disclosed in this background section is intended only to enhance understanding of the overall background of the invention and is not necessarily to be construed as an admission or in any way implying that such information constitutes prior art known to those skilled in the art.

[0003] During shield tunnel construction, after the tunnel segments are assembled, there are often gaps between them and the surrounding soil. To fill these gaps, stabilize the segment structure, suppress ground deformation, and achieve waterproofing, simultaneous grouting is usually required. The quality of the grouting layer directly affects the long-term safety of the tunnel structure, its waterproof sealing performance, and the stability of surface structures.

[0004] However, due to the complex interplay of factors such as grouting pressure, grout flow characteristics, and geological conditions, hidden defects such as voids, looseness, delamination, or water abundance can easily occur within the grouting layer. These defects not only weaken the load-bearing capacity of the lining but can also lead to stress concentration and cracking in the tunnel segments, further forming seepage channels and seriously threatening the operational safety and service life of the tunnel. Currently, the main methods for detecting the effectiveness of simultaneous grouting include: (1) Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR): Although this method is widely used in engineering inspection, electromagnetic waves are severely attenuated in reinforced concrete and are interfered with by dense steel mesh, making it difficult to effectively penetrate and accurately identify defects in the grouting layer, and its ability to identify defect types is limited.

[0005] (2) Core drilling method: Although the results are intuitive and reliable, it is a destructive testing method with low efficiency and high cost. It can only reflect the local situation and cannot achieve large-scale and continuous quality evaluation.

[0006] (3) Impact-Echo (IE): This is a non-destructive testing technique based on the principle of stress wave propagation. It is traditionally used to measure the thickness of concrete or shallow defects. However, in actual engineering, the signals acquired by the impact-echo method often have a low signal-to-noise ratio and complex characteristics. Traditional methods based on frequency domain analysis or experience interpretation are difficult to accurately adapt to complex field conditions, and the stability and accuracy of the test results are difficult to guarantee. Summary of the Invention

[0007] To address the problems of the aforementioned impact echo method, this invention proposes an intelligent detection method for internal voids in grouting bodies based on impact echo and deep learning. By establishing a database of grouting layer defect features and training an intelligent recognition model, it can achieve high-precision and automated identification of internal defects in the grouting layer, providing an innovative, efficient, and scalable technical approach to solving the problem of synchronous grouting quality inspection. Specifically, the technical solution of this invention is as follows.

[0008] A smart detection method for internal voids in grouting bodies based on impact echo and deep learning includes the following steps: (1) Construct a physical model of the hardened grouting material containing preset defects to simulate void defects of different burial depths and sizes. Then, place detection lines on the surface of the physical model.

[0009] (2) The original echo signal of the physical model is obtained by using the impulse echo method. Then calculate the Energy cumulative distribution function Obtain an effective analysis time window This is used as the unified input range for all subsequent feature extraction steps.

[0010] (3) The acquired original echo signal Empirical Mode Decomposition (EMD), Singular Spectral Analysis (SSA), and Wavelet Thresholding (WTD) are performed sequentially for denoising, resulting in a purified signal. .

[0011] (4) To enhance the sensitivity to the reflection characteristics of the de-energized interface, the purification signal is... Normalization and Hilbert transform are performed to obtain the signal envelope spectrum. With instantaneous phase And further, the phase delay curve was obtained. .

[0012] (5) Regarding the purification signal Signal envelope spectrum Continuous wavelet transforms were performed using hybrid structures of Morlet and Mexican Hat wavelets, and the two results were then fused by frequency band weighting to obtain composite time-frequency features. It has multi-resolution features and can be used as input for subsequent deep learning models.

[0013] (6) The purification signal Signal envelope spectrum Phase delay curve Composite time-frequency characteristics Composition of joint eigenvectors: The feature tensor F after this processing has high correlation and low noise features, and can be directly input into the multimodal multi-scale attention fusion deep learning model (MSA-CNN-LSTM) constructed in this invention for defect identification.

[0014] (7) The feature tensor F contains The input is fed into the time-frequency feature extraction branch of the multimodal multi-scale attention fusion deep learning model (MSA-CNN-LSTM), and the output is multimodal features. The feature tensor F contains , , The inputs are fed into the temporal feature extraction branch of the deep learning model described above, and the output is multimodal features. .

[0015] (8) The multimodal features , The input is fed into the adaptive feature weighted fusion (AFWM) module of the deep learning model to obtain adaptive weights. After weighted summation and fusion, the fusion characteristics are obtained. After being processed by the classification head, it achieves high-precision discrimination of different defect categories, thereby realizing the identification and detection of defects in the inspected object.

[0016] Furthermore, in step (1), the preset defect in the model experiment can be simulated by a hollow acrylic box, whose wave impedance is small and the difference between it and the grouting material is small, so the reflected wave at the contact surface of the two is weak, and therefore the influence of this part of the reflected wave on the experiment can be ignored.

[0017] Furthermore, in step (2), the following formula is used for the above process. Energy cumulative distribution function: ,in For time, For the original echo signal at time The instantaneous amplitude.

[0018] Furthermore, in step (2), by obtaining the... The first derivative curve automatically identifies the moment when the energy growth rate drops to a set threshold. This moment is taken as the termination point of the main reflected energy. The effective analysis time window of the signal is thus dynamically determined. The This is a margin parameter. This time window can be automatically adjusted according to the excitation energy, the structural thickness of the physical model, and its material properties to avoid the loss of effective information or the introduction of noise due to time truncation.

[0019] Further, in step (3), the joint denoising includes the following steps: S3-1: Empirical Mode Decomposition (EMD): This process converts the original echo signal... The signal is decomposed into several intrinsic mode functions (IMFs), and the IMF1 containing high-frequency noise is removed to obtain the reconstructed signal of the intrinsic mode function components.

[0020] S3-2: Singular Spectrum Analysis (SSA): The inherent mode function components are reconstructed into a signal. Based on the eigenvalue decomposition of the trajectory matrix, the first k mode components corresponding to the main singular values ​​are retained to obtain a smooth reconstructed signal.

[0021] S3-3: Wavelet Thresholding Denoising (WTD): The smoothed reconstructed signal is then subjected to a soft threshold. , ( (where N is the noise standard deviation and N is the signal length) further reduces random high-frequency interference in the frequency domain. The signal obtained by the three-level joint denoising strategy of EMD-SSA-WTD (Empirical Mode Decomposition-Singular Spectrum Analysis-Wavelet Thresholding) proposed in this invention has a higher signal-to-noise ratio and retains the main reflection waveform characteristics, which can effectively avoid interference from on-site noise and instruments.

[0022] Furthermore, in step (4), the normalization and Hilbert transform are performed using the following formula: .in, For Hilbert transform operators, The imaginary unit ( The imaginary part of the complex signal is constructed using this method. The envelope spectrum and phase features of the signal after the above processing exhibit higher discriminative power in defect identification. The phase delay curve... It is used to reflect multipath reflection and changes in burial depth.

[0023] Furthermore, in step (5), the transform coefficients of the continuous wavelet transform (CWT) for: .in, It represents the complex conjugate of the mother wavelet. It is a time variable. , These represent the scale parameter and translation parameter, respectively; optionally, , .

[0024] Furthermore, in step (5), the composite time-frequency characteristics are calculated using the following formula: ,in For calculation using Morlet wavelets CWT Coefficient matrix. For calculation using MexicanHat wavelets CWTCoefficient matrix; , Here, are weighting coefficients, and a and b represent the scale parameter and translation parameter, respectively. Optionally, the weighting coefficients are determined based on the energy distribution. , ,and .

[0025] Furthermore, in step (7), the time-frequency feature extraction branch is based on a fused convolutional neural network (CNN) structure, employing multi-scale residual convolution and introducing a time-frequency attention mechanism. This invention extracts feature information at different time-frequency resolutions through parallel multi-scale convolution kernels and assigns adaptive weights in the two-dimensional time-frequency plane, highlighting defect-sensitive time intervals and frequency bands, thereby obtaining information-rich time-frequency weighted features.

[0026] Furthermore, in step (7), the temporal feature extraction branch is obtained by using a Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) network combined with a temporal attention mechanism. Based on modeling the temporal signal sequence, this invention automatically highlights the key moment response related to the defect in the impact signal through attention weights, suppresses redundant noise periods, and thus obtains more discriminative temporal weighted features.

[0027] Furthermore, step (7) also includes transmitting the purification signal. Amplitude spectrum obtained by Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) The input is fed into the spectral feature extraction branch of the multimodal multi-scale attention fusion deep learning model (MSA-CNN-LSTM), and the output is multimodal features. This is to supplement the frequency domain energy distribution characteristics. Preferably, the frequency domain energy distribution characteristics are supplemented. With the , The fused features are obtained by inputting them into the adaptive feature weighting fusion module (AFWM). .

[0028] Furthermore, the spectral feature extraction branch is obtained using a lightweight convolutional neural network (Light CNN) combined with global average pooling (GAP). This invention, through the above processing, achieves the extraction of amplitude and energy distribution features in the frequency domain space, thus supplementing the deficiencies in spectral information provided by the time domain and time-frequency branches.

[0029] Furthermore, in step (8), the fusion feature The calculation formula is: .

[0030] Furthermore, in step (8), the Classification Head uses the Softmax activation function at the output end to achieve high-precision discrimination of different defect categories.

[0031] Furthermore, step (8) also includes: using the uncertainty estimation module in the multimodal multiscale attention fusion deep learning model (MSA-CNN-LSTM) to calculate the variance of the prediction result, and using it as the uncertainty index of the model output to quantify the credibility of the classification result in order to assist engineering decision-making.

[0032] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has at least the following beneficial technical effects: (1) Adaptive signal interception and multi-level noise reduction: This invention uses an adaptive time window driven by energy accumulation distribution and a joint EMD-SSA-WTD noise reduction strategy to automatically identify the effective reflection range and suppress high-frequency noise, thereby significantly improving the signal-to-noise ratio and making the reflected waveform clearer and more stable. This is because the joint noise reduction strategy of this invention is a "layer-by-layer stripping of noise chain" oriented towards the characteristics of impact echo signals. It realizes a specific noise reduction sequence of structural layering, trend correction and local refinement, effectively avoiding the destruction of reflected wave information and significantly improving the signal-to-noise ratio.

[0033] (2) Multi-source feature synergistic enhancement: Based on traditional time-frequency analysis, this invention introduces envelope and phase delay features after Hilbert transform to form a three-dimensional fusion feature space of time domain, frequency domain and phase, which improves the ability to distinguish between shallow and deep void reflections.

[0034] (3) Extraction of time-frequency features of composite wavelet: This invention adopts energy weighted fusion of Morlet and Mexican Hat wavelets, which significantly improves the resolution balance problem of different frequency bands and realizes multi-scale visualization and adaptive enhancement of the de-reflection signal.

[0035] (4) Multimodal and multiscale attention fusion recognition: This invention uses a multimodal network structure composed of time domain (LSTM + temporal attention), time frequency (CNN + time frequency attention) and optional spectrum (LightCNN + GAP) branches, and the adaptive feature weighted fusion module (AFWM) realizes dynamic weight allocation. The model can automatically adjust the feature contribution for different defect types.

[0036] (5) Improved intelligence and reliability: By introducing an uncertainty estimation module based on Monte Carlo Dropout technology, this invention can not only output the defect category, but also provide the prediction variance as an uncertainty assessment index, providing a confidence basis for engineering inspection, and realizing traceability of results and controllable risks.

[0037] In summary, this invention forms a complete technology chain from signal acquisition, preprocessing, feature extraction to multimodal intelligent recognition, which is superior to existing methods in terms of detection accuracy, robustness and engineering feasibility.

Acrylic box four has a hollow dimension of 30 cm in length and 20 cm in width, and acrylic box five has a hollow dimension of 40 cm in length and 20 cm in width. The embedment depth of acrylic boxes four and five is 32 cm. Figure 1 As shown.

[0048] S1-4: Arrange a survey line network on the upper surface of the physical model, with its outer edge 15cm from the boundary and its interior divided into a 5cm×5cm grid to form a survey point array, such as... Figure 2 As shown.

[0049] Step (2), Signal Acquisition: According to Figure 2 The measured point and line array shown uses a 28 mm diameter vibrating hammer to excite elastic waves. An accelerometer is placed in close contact with the upper surface of the model to receive the echo. The sampling frequency of the sensor is set to 200 kHz to ensure that high-frequency components in the impact echo signal can be captured. The sampling duration for each monitoring point is 40 ms. During testing, the accelerometer is placed in close contact with the upper surface of the model, positioned 5 cm to the right of the impact point of the vibrating hammer. To ensure the representativeness of the sample data and the sufficiency of model training, 10 samples are collected from each monitoring point, resulting in a total of 3750 samples, covering dense areas and various void conditions.

[0050] Step (3): Use the following formula (1) to process the original echo signal obtained in the above steps. Accumulated energy distribution: (1); in, For time, For the original echo signal at time The instantaneous amplitude. Then, by calculating the... The first derivative line automatically identifies the moment when the energy growth rate drops to the 5% threshold. This moment is taken as the termination point of the main reflected energy.

This will serve as the unified input range for all subsequent feature extraction steps (including EMD-SSA-WTD denoising, Hilbert envelope and phase calculation, CWT composite wavelet analysis, and FFT spectrum extraction), ensuring that each feature module processes only the effective segments containing the main reflection information, avoiding background noise interference, and improving feature stability and recognition accuracy.

[0051] Step (4), as Figure 3 As shown, the joint denoising of the acquired original echo signal specifically includes the following steps: S4-1: Empirical Mode Decomposition (EMD): The original echo signal is decomposed into several intrinsic mode functions (IMFs), and IMF1 containing high-frequency noise is removed to obtain the reconstructed signal of the intrinsic mode function components.
