Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This disclosure relates to the field of bridge structural health status assessment, and in particular to a method and system for identifying bridge influence lines based on two-stage spatial weighted regularization. Background Technology
[0002] The influence line of a bridge is a function describing the internal force or displacement response of a bridge section under a unit moving load, and is an important tool for bridge structural analysis and health monitoring. Accurate identification of the influence line is crucial for structural condition assessment, damage detection, and load-bearing capacity analysis. Existing influence line identification methods are mainly based on vehicle-bridge coupled vibration theory, inverting the influence line by measuring the dynamic response of the bridge under moving vehicle loads. However, due to the limited number of measurement points, noise interference, and the fact that the number of discrete points on the influence line far exceeds the number of measurement points, this problem is essentially an underdetermined inverse problem with a high degree of ill-conditionedness. Tikhonov regularization is a classic method for solving ill-conditioned inverse problems. Its basic idea is to introduce a regularization term into the least squares objective function, stabilizing the solution process by penalizing the second derivative norm of the solution. The objective function of the standard Tikhonov regularization method is:
[0003]
[0004] in, The influence line to be identified. Here is the load matrix. In response to the data vector, For regularization parameters, It is a second-order difference matrix. .
[0005] At present, many achievements have been made in the research on bridge influence line identification by using standard Tikhonov regularization and its variants. In the article published by Zheng et al. ([Zheng X, Yang D-H, Yi T-H, et al. Bridge Influence Line Identification Based on Regularized Least-Squares QR Decomposition Method[J]. Journal of Bridge Engineering, 2019, 24(8):06019004.]), a method for identifying bridge influence lines based on the regularized least-squares QR decomposition method (decomposing a matrix into the product of an orthogonal matrix and an upper triangular matrix) was proposed. This method uses Tikhonov regularization to construct a solution equation and the LSQR method (Least Squares QR algorithm) to solve it, which can better retain the influence line information. However, if the maximum restoration of the peak value is pursued, the overall influence line will oscillate. If the influence line is pursued to be smooth, there will be serious peak value reduction. In another article published by Zheng ([Zheng X. Research on the Evaluation Method of Stiffness and Bearing Capacity of Small and Medium-Span Bridges Based on Influence Coefficients[D]. Dalian University of Technology, 2022.]), it was also pointed out that the regularization parameter selected by the current method in the Tikhonov regularization equation generally makes the result under-fitted and weakens the influence line peak value. Other regularization coefficients should be selected to identify the influence line, indicating that there is still room for optimization and improvement in the Tikhonov regularization method.
[0006] Chinese patent (publication number: CN107588915A) discloses "A method for identifying bridge influence lines," which essentially combines Tikhonov regularization and B-spline curves, treating the influence line as a combination of B-spline basis functions and ensuring the smoothness of the solution through preset basis functions. However, its drawback is that it can lead to excessive smoothing of peak values in the peak region, i.e., peak reduction. Chinese patent (publication number: CN108920766A) discloses "A method for identifying bridge influence lines based on basis function representation and sparse regularization," which combines sparse regularization with basis function representation and adds a curvature-based node adaptive optimization method. However, its drawback is that sparse regularization requires complex iterative algorithms such as FISTA (Fast Iterative Shrinkage-Thresholding Algorithm) and ADMM (Alternating Direction Method of Multipliers) for solution, and the computation time is usually tens of times longer than standard methods, making it difficult to apply to real-time online monitoring.
[0007] The peak characteristics of the influence line often correspond to the key sections of the bridge (such as the mid-span location). Its accurate identification is crucial for structural assessment. Therefore, how to preserve the peak characteristics while maintaining the overall smoothness, i.e., not weakening the peak of the influence line, and also take into account the computational efficiency, has become a problem that needs to be solved in the identification of bridge influence lines.

[0063] The technical solutions of this disclosure will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and preferred embodiments.
[0064] Example 1
[0065] See Figure 1 This embodiment provides a bridge influence line identification method based on two-stage spatial weighted regularization, including:
[0066] Acquire dynamic response data of measuring points when a moving vehicle passes over a bridge, the dynamic response data including bridge strain data and / or bridge displacement;
[0067] Using the standard Tikhonov regularization method with the first objective function The influence lines were initially identified by solving the influence lines problem. ,in, Indicates minimization. This represents a dynamic response data vector at a certain measuring point on the bridge. This represents a load matrix established based on vehicle axle load, axle spacing, and vehicle position information. For regularization parameters; It is a second-order difference matrix;
[0068] Identification peak position Based on the distance between the bridge location and the nearest peak region, a weight matrix for smoothing constraints is constructed. Weight matrix that maintains structural constraints The weight of the smoothing constraint for bridge locations in the peak region is less than the weight of the smoothing constraint for bridge locations in the non-peak region, and the weight of the structure preservation constraint for bridge locations in the peak region is less than the weight of the structure preservation constraint for bridge locations in the non-peak region.
[0069] Using the second objective function Solving for the influence lines yields the final identified influence lines. ,in, Represents the smoothing coefficient. Indicates the structural retention factor. The determination is based on the data quality of the dynamic response data input to the second objective function.
[0070] It is understood that the dynamic response data refers to the dynamic state relative to the quasi-static response data. It is not the quasi-static response of the moving load, but rather the response data under the dynamic state of the moving load, i.e., the dynamic response data brought about by vehicles (moving loads) traveling on the bridge at normal speeds (e.g., 5-120 km / h). In this embodiment, for .
[0071] In this embodiment, the peak region is determined based on the peak position. The defined regions include peak locations. For any two bridge locations in non-peak regions, if the distance from one bridge location in a non-peak region to its nearest peak region is less than the distance from the bridge location in the other non-peak region to its nearest peak region, then the weight of the smoothing constraint for the bridge location in the first non-peak region is less than or equal to the weight of the smoothing constraint for the bridge location in the other non-peak region, and the weight of the structure preservation constraint for the bridge location in the first non-peak region is less than or equal to the weight of the structure preservation constraint for the bridge location in the other non-peak region.
[0072] In this embodiment, the Used to control the strength of smoothing constraints. Control The lower the reliance on information at each stage, the lower the data quality. The larger the value, the better. As a specific embodiment, the data quality is determined using a signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) assessment.
[0073] Furthermore, the bridge influence line identification method also includes determining the data quality based on the dynamic response data input to the second objective function. The steps are as follows: Specifically: Determine the data quality of the dynamic response data (which can be understood as a dynamic response data vector) input to the second objective function to obtain a data quality assessment result; determine the appropriate method based on the data quality assessment result. The value of .
[0074] Understandably, the dynamic response data (i.e., the dynamic response data vector) is typically input into the first objective function and the second objective function. The data quality is the same as the data itself.
[0075] Understandably, the influence line is a strain influence line. The locations mentioned in this article refer to bridge locations; for example, the peak location is the bridge location corresponding to the peak point on the influence line, and the location index mentioned below is an index of the bridge location.
[0076] Example 2
[0077] This embodiment provides a bridge influence line identification method based on two-stage spatial weighted regularization. This embodiment is based on Embodiment 1 and specifically includes the following steps:
[0078] Step 2.1: Arrange several measuring points on the bridge. The number of measuring points is determined based on the bridge's length, structure, etc. Collect dynamic response data from each measuring point when a moving vehicle passes over the bridge. Construct a dynamic response data vector for each measuring point. That is, the dynamic response data vector, where The number of sampling times for each measuring point; a load matrix is constructed based on vehicle axle load, axle spacing information, and vehicle position information. ,in, The number of discrete points of the influence line, that is: for and The number of discrete points is the same.
[0079] In one specific embodiment, the sampling frequency of the dynamic response data acquired at the measurement point is... The frequency range is 10-200Hz; the number of discrete points of the influence line ,in The difference in the number of sampling points between the front axle and the last axle of the vehicle is expressed by the following formula: ,in The length from the front axle to the last axle. The vehicle speed.
[0080] Step 2.2, First Stage Global Structure Recovery: The initial estimation of influence lines is solved using standard Tikhonov regularization. The objective function is:
[0081]
[0082] in, This is a dynamic response data vector for a certain measuring point on the bridge. The regularization parameter is determined using the L-curve method. It is a second-order difference matrix. ; The influence lines that have been initially identified are referred to as preliminary influence lines.
[0083] The regularization parameter is determined using the L-curve method. The specific steps include:
[0084] Select a series of candidate parameter values on a logarithmic scale. ; Indicates the first There are a total of candidate parameter values. One candidate parameter value, This represents the first candidate parameter value. This represents the second candidate parameter value. Indicates the first One candidate parameter value;
[0085] For each Solving the equation yields the first... One candidate influence line Calculate the residual norm and regularization term norm ;
[0086] Plot the L-curve in a logarithmic coordinate system: the x-axis is... The vertical axis is ; This indicates the influence line to be determined, i.e., the influence line to be identified;
[0087] Calculate the curvature of the L-curve and select the point corresponding to the maximum curvature. The value is used as the optimal regularization parameter, thus obtaining the regularization parameter. .
[0088] The initial influence lines were obtained by solving the problem. for:
[0089] .
[0090] Step 2.3, Peak position identification:
[0091] From the initial impact line Identify peak position in the middle:
[0092] ;
[0093] in, Indicates the peak position. This indicates the number of the discrete points of the influence line, that is, the index of the discrete points of the influence line. Represents the discrete points of the influence line The strain influence line value;
[0094] Define peak region Transitional area and background area :
[0095] (1) Peak region The peak region is defined as the area including the peak location and its neighborhood, not exceeding the radius of the peak region. ,in, The radius of the peak region; the radius of the peak region The value of is determined based on the actual application requirements: when it is necessary to maximize the peak recovery accuracy, set . =0, the peak region degenerates into a single peak point; when there is local oscillation or noise near the peak, set to =1~10 discrete points to smooth the region near the peak;
[0096] (2) Transition area The area between the peak region and the background region is called the transition region. As a transition between the peak region and the background region, the width of the transition region is denoted as... Defined as ; Greater than 1; Transition zone width The recommended value is 5-20 discrete points, and the specific value is determined based on the total length of the influence line and the peak characteristics.
[0097] (3) Background area The region far from the peak is defined as the area where the distance from the (nearest) peak location is greater than [a certain value]. The background area is defined as follows: ;
[0098] For cases where multiple peaks need to be identified, the location of each peak must be identified separately. , This indicates the total number of peaks. Indicates the number of the peak value. Indicates peak value The location is understandable; correspondingly, the peak region, transition region, and background region are the union of the regions corresponding to each individual peak.
[0099] It is understood that the peak region, transition region, and background region are all location ranges. The non-peak region includes the transition region and the background region.
[0100] Step 2.4: Construct the weight matrix for smoothness constraints. Weight matrix that maintains structural constraints , and The weight values are determined based on the distance from the peak region (or peak position). Typically, smaller values are assigned near the peak position, and larger values are assigned further away. That is: for any two bridge positions on the initial influence line, if the distance from one bridge position to its nearest peak region is less than the distance from the other bridge position to its nearest peak region, then the weight of the smoothing constraint for the first bridge position is less than or equal to the weight of the smoothing constraint for the other bridge position, and the weight of the structure preservation constraint for the first bridge position is less than or equal to the weight of the structure preservation constraint for the other bridge position. However, not all smoothing constraint weights and not all structure preservation constraint weights are equal.
[0101] In one embodiment, the weights of the smoothing constraints Weights that maintain structural constraints Using the same piecewise linear function form ensures spatial consistency between the two types of constraints; in the peak region, both weights are 0, resulting in complete decoupling; in the transition region, the weights linearly increase from 0 to 1; in the background region, the weights are 1, maintaining strong constraints. Specifically:

[0117] The main diagonal elements are in sequence. A symmetric matrix in which all other elements (excluding the main diagonal elements) are zero.
[0118] Step 2.5, Determine the coefficients and .
[0119] Based on the quality assessment results of the dynamic response data input to the second objective function, the coefficients are determined. and Specifically, there are three preset data quality levels, referred to as high quality, medium quality, and low quality, each with its own characteristics. range of values and The value range is specified. In a specific embodiment, the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) is used to evaluate the data quality. The SNR is calculated as follows: spectral analysis is performed on the original dynamic response data signal to identify the main frequency band and noise frequency band; signal power is calculated. and noise power ; Calculate the signal-to-noise ratio .
[0120] This is an example, not a limitation:
[0121] For high-quality (first-class data quality) data, when the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) is ≥30dB, set... , ;
[0122] For medium quality (second data quality) data, when 20dB ≤ SNR < 30dB, set... , ;
[0123] For low-quality (third-order data quality) data, when SNR < 20dB, set... , .
[0124] Step 2.6, Second Stage: Dual-Weight Collaborative Refined Solution
[0125] The influence lines for final identification are solved using dual-weighted collaborative regularization. The objective function is:
[0126] ;
[0127] in, For smoothing coefficients, This is the structural retention factor;
[0128] The final influence line (final influence line) is obtained by solving the problem. :
[0129] .
