Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of wind turbine blade damage identification, and more specifically, it relates to a method for wind turbine blade damage pattern identification by multi-source information fusion. Background Technology

[0002] Wind energy, as a clean energy source, occupies an important position in the global energy structure. Wind turbine blades, as the core components for capturing wind energy, are constantly exposed to complex natural environments, enduring multiple loads such as airflow impact, temperature changes, humidity erosion, dust abrasion, and lightning strikes. This makes them prone to various forms of damage, including cracks, skin peeling, and leading-edge erosion. If blade damage is not identified and addressed promptly, it can lead to decreased wind energy capture efficiency and even safety accidents.

[0003] Traditional blade damage identification methods primarily rely on periodic manual inspections or monitoring based on single sensors. Manual inspections are time-consuming, labor-intensive, and highly susceptible to weather conditions; while single sensors (such as those relying solely on vibration signals) often struggle to extract effective fault characteristics in environments with wind and sand interference, easily leading to missed detections or false alarms. For example, vibration signals generated by wind and sand impacting the blade can be confused with vibration signals generated by blade damage, making it difficult for single vibration analysis to distinguish them. Furthermore, the complex operating environment of wind turbines means that single information sources often contain uncertainties and conflicts, making it difficult to comprehensively reflect the true health status of the blades. Therefore, there is an urgent need for a blade damage pattern recognition method that can integrate information from multiple sensors to improve recognition accuracy and robustness. Summary of the Invention

[0004] To address the problems of missed detections, false alarms, and insufficient robustness under environmental interference inherent in existing wind turbine blade damage identification methods that rely on single sensors, this invention provides a multi-source information fusion-based wind turbine blade damage pattern recognition method. This method first identifies typical blade damage patterns and collects multi-source signals. Then, it calculates the basic probability allocation of each single-source signal to the corresponding evidence for the damage pattern using a single-source probabilistic neural network model. Next, it calculates the conflict between the evidence corresponding to each single-source signal and the information content of the evidence itself. Based on this, it evaluates the credibility and robustness of each piece of evidence and determines its comprehensive weight in the fusion process. Finally, it performs weighted synthesis of the evidence based on the weights and iterative fusion using DS evidence theory to output the final damage pattern recognition result. This invention can effectively fuse multi-source heterogeneous information, significantly improving the accuracy and environmental adaptability of damage identification.

[0070] The present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0071] 1. This invention provides a method for identifying damage patterns of wind turbine blades based on multi-source information fusion. It abandons the simple conflict measurement method based solely on intersection in the traditional DS evidence theory and constructs a new formula to solve for the conflict between evidence. The new conflict solution formula can quantify the nonlinear and high-order degree of conflict, providing a more accurate data foundation for subsequent evidence processing and significantly improving the system's ability to identify real damage patterns.

[0072] 2. This invention constructs a robustness graph model and an iterative propagation mechanism. Through the graph model, this invention believes that the robustness of a piece of evidence depends not only on itself, but also on the influence of other neighboring node evidence. By introducing an iterative propagation mechanism, the robustness flows and updates continuously among the evidence nodes. This mechanism can automatically weaken the influence of evidence that is severely interfered with in the wind turbine service environment and enhance the robustness of the system.

[0073] 3. This invention proposes a dual decision-making mechanism that integrates credibility and robustness. Credibility focuses on assessing the credibility of evidence from the perspective of conflict, while robustness focuses on assessing the quality of evidence from the perspective of information content and group consensus. The combination of the two constitutes a more comprehensive evaluation system, making the determined comprehensive weight allocation more reasonable and increasing the recognition accuracy of the final fusion result.

The denominator of the formula is " The subscript 'l' in the text represents the adjacent single-source signals of the single-source signal 'q', indicating that the traversal is performed except for evidence m. q All evidence nodes other than the node itself, E ql Representative evidence m q Node and all other evidence m l The edge weights of nodes;

[0124] Step 5.3: Calculate the robustness of the evidence node corresponding to the i-th single-source signal after iteration termination. The iterative propagation process stops when robustness propagation and redistribution reach a stable state, i.e., when the robustness inflow obtained by each evidence node from its neighboring nodes reaches equilibrium with its own state. The termination condition is expressed as:

[0125] (12)

[0126] R i (k) This represents the robustness of the evidence node corresponding to the i-th single-source signal after the k-th iteration; when evidence mi The iteration terminates when the maximum absolute value of the difference between the data from the k-th iteration and the data from the (k+1)-th iteration of a node is less than 1e-6, and the evidence m... i Once the robustness propagation and allocation of nodes reach a stable state, the stability of the evidence node corresponding to the i-th single-source signal is represented by R. i .

[0127] Step Six: Based on the credibility of the evidence corresponding to each single-source signal determined in Step Four, and the robustness of the evidence corresponding to each single-source signal determined in Step Five, calculate the comprehensive weight of the evidence corresponding to each single-source signal.

[0128] Based on the credibility determined in step 4.4 and the robustness determined in step 5.3, the comprehensive weight w of the evidence corresponding to each single-source signal in the fusion process is determined, expressed as:

[0129] (13)

[0131] Step 7: Based on the comprehensive weight of the evidence corresponding to each single-source signal calculated in Step 6, the basic probability allocation result of the evidence corresponding to each single-source signal calculated in Step 2 is weighted to obtain the basic probability allocation result of the new evidence to the damage mode. Through multiple fusions, the final basic probability allocation result of the typical blade failure mode is obtained.

[0132] Step 7.1: Multiply the evidence corresponding to each single-source signal by the corresponding comprehensive weight obtained in Step 6 to obtain the basic probability allocation result of the new evidence for the damage mode, expressed as:

[0135] Step 7.2: Using the DS evidence theory, the new evidence obtained in Step 7.1 is fused with the basic probability allocation results of the damage modes twice to obtain the final basic probability allocation results of the typical blade failure modes.

[0136] Step 8: The damage mode corresponding to the maximum value in the basic probability allocation result of the final typical blade failure modes in Step 7 is the finally identified blade damage mode.

[0137] Example:

[0138] This embodiment presents a method for identifying damage patterns in wind turbine blades through multi-source information fusion, comprising the following steps:

[0139] Step 1: Determine the typical damage modes of wind turbine blades to form an identification framework. The typical damage modes are crack damage (F1), pinhole damage (F2), skin detachment (F3), and leading edge erosion (F4). The identification framework for blade damage modes is then represented as follows: Three multi-source signals were acquired to identify typical damage modes of the blade: vibration signal S1, acoustic emission signal S2, and strain signal S3.

[0140] Step 2: Based on the blade vibration signal, acoustic emission signal and strain signal from Step 1, calculate the basic probability allocation result of the evidence corresponding to each single source signal for each damage mode;

[0141] Step 2.1: Based on the blade vibration signal S1, acoustic emission signal S2, and strain signal S3 from Step 1, construct three single-source probabilistic neural network models respectively. The blade vibration signal S1, acoustic emission signal S2, and strain signal S3 are used as the inputs of the three single-source probabilistic neural network models, and the damage mode of the wind turbine blade is used as the output of the three single-source probabilistic neural network models, namely, crack damage F1, sand hole damage F2, skin peeling F3, and leading edge erosion F4 are the outputs.

[0142] Step 2.2: Train the three single-source probabilistic neural network models constructed in Step 2.1 using historical blade vibration signals, acoustic emission signals, and strain signals of wind turbine blade damage patterns;

[0143] Step 2.3: Input the online blade vibration signal, acoustic emission signal, and strain signal into the single-source probabilistic neural network model trained in Step 2.2. The output value of each single-source probabilistic neural network model is the basic probability allocation result of the evidence corresponding to that single-source signal with respect to the damage mode; the basic probability allocation result of the evidence corresponding to each single-source signal with respect to the damage mode is expressed as m. i ( ), where i represents the type of single-source signal, i=1, 2, 3; m1 represents the basic probability allocation function of the evidence corresponding to the vibration signal; m2 represents the basic probability allocation function of the evidence corresponding to the acoustic emission signal; m3 represents the basic probability allocation function of the evidence corresponding to the strain signal; j represents the type of damage mode, j=1, 2, 3, 4, F j The damage modes are represented as follows: F1 represents crack damage, F2 represents pinhole damage, F3 represents skin detachment, and F4 represents leading edge erosion. In this embodiment, the basic probability allocation results of the evidence corresponding to each single-source signal for the damage mode are shown in Table 1.

[0144] Table 1. Basic probability allocation results of evidence corresponding to single-source signals

[0145]

[0146] As can be seen from the data in Table 1, m1 and m3 mainly support the occurrence of F1 (crack damage) and are the actual damage modes, while m2 supports the occurrence of F2 (sand hole damage). There is a clear conflict between m2 and other evidence.

[0147] Step 3: Based on the basic probability allocation results of the evidence corresponding to each single source signal in Step 2, solve for the conflict between the evidence corresponding to each single source signal and the information content of the evidence corresponding to each single source signal.

[0148] Step 3.1: Solve for the confidence function and plausibility function of the evidence corresponding to each single-source signal. The identification framework for blade damage patterns is then written as follows: In this embodiment, the trust function Bel and the plausibility function Pl of the evidence corresponding to each single-source signal are respectively:

[0149] m1:Bel(F1) = 0.5, Bel(F2) = 0.2, Bel(F3) = 0.2, Bel(F4) = 0.1;

[0150] Pl(F1) = 0.5, Pl(F2) = 0.2, Pl(F3) = 0.2, Pl(F4) = 0.1;

[0151] m2:Bel(F1) = 0.0, Bel(F2) = 0.8, Bel(F3) = 0.1, Bel(F4) = 0.1;

[0152] Pl(F1) = 0.0, Pl(F2) = 0.8, Pl(F3) = 0.1, Pl(F4) = 0.1;

[0153] m3: Bel(F1) = 0.55, Bel(F2) = 0.15, Bel(F3) = 0.1, Bel(F4) = 0.2;

[0154] Pl(F1) = 0.55, Pl(F2) = 0.15, Pl(F3) = 0.1, Pl(F4) = 0.2;

[0155] Step 3.2: Solve the conflict of evidence corresponding to each single-source signal within the framework of blade damage pattern identification. Next, the conflict of evidence corresponding to each of the two single-source signals is calculated. Preferably, the adjustment coefficient α in the conflict calculation formula is set to 2. Therefore, in this embodiment, the conflict of evidence corresponding to each of the two single-source signals is as follows:

[0156] BPRD2(m1, m2) = 6.8191, BPRD2(m1, m3) = 0.1565,

[0157] BPRD2(m2, m1) = 6.8191, BPRD2(m2, m3) = 7.0526,

[0158] BPRD2(m3, m1) = 0.1565, BPRD2(m3, m2) = 7.0526;

[0159] Step 3.3: Calculate the information (Inf) of the evidence corresponding to each single-source signal. In this embodiment, the information is as follows:

[0160] Inf(m1) = 5.8180, Inf(m2) = 2.5141, Inf(m3) = 5.3736;

[0161] Step 4: Based on the conflict of evidence corresponding to each single-source signal in Step 3, determine the credibility of the evidence corresponding to each single-source signal.

[0162] Step 4.1: Based on the conflict of evidence corresponding to each pair of single-source signals obtained in Step 3.2, construct the conflict matrix D between all the evidence corresponding to single-source signals. In this embodiment, the conflict matrix D is:

[0163] ;

[0164] Step 4.2: Based on the conflict matrix in Step 4.1, calculate the difference (Diff) between each piece of evidence and the other evidence. In this embodiment, these are:

[0165] Diff(m1) = 6.9755, Diff(m2) = 13.8717, Diff(m1) = 7.0291;

[0166] Step 4.3: Based on the differences in Step 4.2, obtain the support level for each piece of evidence. In this embodiment, these are:

[0167] Sup(m1) = 0.1434, Sup(m2) = 0.0721, Sup(m1) = 0.1387;

[0168] Step 4.4: Based on the support level in Step 4.3, calculate the credibility (Credibility, Cre) of each piece of evidence. In this embodiment, the credibility of each piece of evidence is as follows:

[0169] Cre(m1) = 0.4048, Cre(m2) = 0.2035, Cre(m1) = 0.3917;

[0170] Step 5: Based on the information content of the evidence corresponding to each single-source signal in Step 3, calculate the robustness of the evidence corresponding to the single-source signal;

[0171] Step 5.1: Construct an initial robustness graph model based on the information content of each piece of evidence calculated in Step 3. First, the initial robustness of each evidence node is calculated. In this embodiment, the initial robustness of each evidence node is:

[0172] , , ;

[0173] Then, the edge weights of the initial robustness graph model are calculated. In this embodiment, the edge weights are:

[0174] E 12 = 0.0816, E 13 = 0.8156,

[0175] E 21 = 0.0816, E 23 = 0.0000,

[0176] E31 = 0.8156, E 32 = 0.0000;

[0177] Step 5.2: Define the iterative propagation mechanism of robustness. The robustness of an evidence node consists of two parts: its own initial robustness and the robustness passed down from other evidence nodes.

[0178] Step 5.3: Calculate the robustness after the iteration terminates. When the robustness propagation and redistribution of the robustness graph model reaches a stable state, that is, when the robustness inflow obtained by each evidence node from its neighboring nodes reaches a balance with its own state, the iterative propagation process stops.

[0179] As a preferred option, damping factor Taking 0.85, the schematic diagram of the evidence robustness iterative propagation process is shown in the attached figure. Figure 2 As shown in the attached figure, the changes in the robustness of the evidence before and after the iteration are as follows. Figure 3 As shown.

[0180] In this embodiment, after the iteration terminates, the robustness of each piece of evidence is expressed as follows:

[0181] R1 = 0.4442, R2 = 0.1620, R3 = 0.3938;

[0182] Step Six: Based on the credibility of the evidence corresponding to each single-source signal determined in Step Four, and the robustness of the evidence corresponding to each single-source signal determined in Step Five, calculate the comprehensive weight of the evidence corresponding to each single-source signal.

[0183] Based on the evidence credibility determined in step 4.4 and the evidence robustness determined in step 5.3, the comprehensive weight of each piece of evidence in the fusion process is determined. In this embodiment, the comprehensive weight is:

[0184] w(m1) = 0.4899, w(m2) = 0.0898, w(m1) = 0.4203;

[0185] Step 7: Based on the comprehensive weight of the evidence corresponding to each single source signal calculated in Step 6, the basic probability allocation results of the evidence corresponding to each original single source signal for the damage mode are weighted to obtain new evidence. The new evidence is then fused to obtain the final basic probability allocation results of the typical blade failure modes.

[0186] Step 7.1: Multiply the evidence corresponding to each single-source piece of information by the comprehensive weight from Step 6, and then weight them to obtain new evidence, represented as:

[0187] , , , ;

[0188] Step 7.2: Using the DS evidence theory, fuse the new evidence obtained in Step 7.1 twice to obtain the final fusion result:

[0189] , , , ;

[0190] Step 8: The damage mode corresponding to the maximum value in the basic probability allocation result of the typical blade damage modes in Step 7 is the finally identified blade damage mode, and the final identification result is crack loss F1.

[0191] To further highlight the recognition effect of this method, the results of recognition using the DS evidence theory are compared with the results of recognition in this embodiment. The comparison results are shown in Table 2.

[0192] Table 2. Recognition performance of the comparison methods

[0193]

[0194] The results in Table 2 show that the DS method identifies the lesion as F2 (trachoma), which is inconsistent with the identification result of this embodiment, resulting in a situation contrary to reality. Therefore, this further demonstrates the identification effectiveness of the method provided by the present invention.

[0195] The above detailed description further elaborates on the purpose, technical solution, and effective effects of the invention. However, the embodiments of the present invention are not limited thereto. Any modifications made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included within the protection scope of the present invention.
