Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of bolt anomaly diagnosis technology, and in particular to a method for diagnosing abnormal stress in top cover bolts based on dual-fiber strain decoupling. Background Technology
[0002] As large-scale equipment, energy equipment, and complex structural systems develop towards higher reliability, higher load capacity, and longer operational cycles, bolted connections, as a key form of mechanical connection, have attracted widespread attention for their health status monitoring technology. Traditional bolt stress monitoring relies heavily on strain gauges, resistance strain gauges, or ultrasonic guided wave-based fastening force assessment methods. However, these methods are susceptible to factors such as temperature drift, electromagnetic interference, material aging, and contact instability under long-term operating conditions, making it difficult to achieve high-precision, long-term, continuous online monitoring.
[0003] In recent years, fiber optic sensing technology has been gradually introduced into the field of bolt health monitoring due to its advantages such as strong resistance to electromagnetic interference, long-term stable operation, and the ability to achieve quasi-distributed measurement. Among them, fiber Bragg grating (FBG) sensors, with their linear response to strain changes in wavelength drift, can be used to monitor the minute deformations that bolts undergo during operation. However, under complex load coupling, FBGs arranged in a single direction cannot effectively distinguish between multiple stress components such as axial stress, shear stress, and bending stress, making the monitoring results often unable to accurately reflect the true stress state of the bolt, thus limiting the accuracy of diagnosis.
[0004] Existing bolt stress monitoring technologies still have many shortcomings in multi-factor coupled environments. On the one hand, the bolt stress in operating structures has a significant multi-directional superposition effect, and traditional resistance and single-fiber strain measurement methods cannot distinguish the stress contributions in different directions, resulting in "aliasing" of monitoring information and making it difficult to support accurate diagnosis. On the other hand, existing methods usually adopt uniaxial or non-orthogonal arrangements, making it difficult to directly invert the mapping matrix between strain signals. This leads to unstable decoupling operations and insufficient robustness, failing to meet the engineering application requirements under complex load variation scenarios. Summary of the Invention

[0042] To make the above-mentioned objects, features, and advantages of the present invention more readily understood, specific embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, and not all of them. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort should fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
[0043] Many specific details are set forth in the following description in order to provide a full understanding of the invention. However, the invention may also be practiced in other ways different from those described herein, and those skilled in the art can make similar extensions without departing from the spirit of the invention. Therefore, the invention is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed below.
[0044] Secondly, the term "an embodiment" or "embodiment" as used herein refers to a specific feature, structure, or characteristic that may be included in at least one implementation of the present invention. The phrase "in one embodiment" appearing in different places throughout this specification does not necessarily refer to the same embodiment, nor is it a single embodiment or an embodiment selectively excluded from other embodiments.
[0045] Reference Figure 1 This is the first embodiment of the present invention, which provides a method for diagnosing abnormal stress in top cover bolts based on dual-fiber strain decoupling, including:
[0046] S1: The strain data of the top cover bolts is collected by dual fiber optic strain sensors and the signal is preprocessed to obtain dual fiber optic strain data.
[0047] S2: Based on dual-fiber strain data, strain decoupling processing is performed, and an orthogonally arranged fiber optic grating decoupling algorithm is used to separate the axial stress and shear stress of the bolt.
[0048] S3: Perform stress anomaly diagnosis based on the decoupled axial stress and shear stress. By comparing the anomaly detection model based on support vector machine with historical stress data, output the anomaly diagnosis results and complete the stress anomaly diagnosis of the top cover bolts based on dual fiber strain decoupling.
[0049] Specifically, two fiber optic strain sensors are securely attached to the surface of the top cover bolt head in an orthogonal direction (90 degrees to each other). The axis of sensor one is parallel to the bolt axis, and the axis of sensor two is perpendicular to sensor one. The two optical fibers are connected to an optical demodulation unit to convert the wavelength shift reflected by the optical fibers into a time series signal, thereby obtaining dual-fiber strain data.
[0050] The strain data of two optical fibers arranged in orthogonal directions are synchronized with a unified time scale to construct an original observation vector composed of two strain paths. Since the optical fibers are fixed on the bolt surface along the axial and tangential directions respectively, their strain response includes the combined effects of axial deformation and shear deformation. The two types of stress components are separated from the coupled strain through decoupling operations.
[0051] A strain response matrix is established based on the spatial orientation of the two optical fibers. The two strain data are arranged in a fixed order to form a strain observation vector. A coefficient matrix containing the mapping relationship between the sensitive direction of the optical fiber and the stress components of the bolt is constructed. After the strain observation vector is input into the decoupling algorithm, the true stress vector of the bolt is solved by linear matrix inversion.
[0052] The decoupling operation utilizes the linear relationship between fiber Bragg wavelength drift and strain, and establishes a mapping relationship between strain and stress based on the sensitive direction of the orthogonally arranged fibers. Axial stress and shear stress are obtained from the coupled strain, establishing the following decoupling relationship, expressed as:
[0053] ;
[0054] In the formula, and These represent the strains measured by the two orthogonal optical fibers, respectively. Indicates the axial stress of the bolt. Indicates the bolt shear stress. , , , Represents the coupling coefficient;
[0055] Obtaining the coupling coefficients: First, two fiber Bragg gratings are orthogonally bonded to the bolt surface, and the assembly is calibrated in a loading fixture. Then, known pure axial tensile loads and pure shear loads are applied respectively, and the center wavelength drift of the two fiber Bragg gratings is recorded in real time, obtaining multiple sets of standard load and wavelength change data. Based on the stress response characteristics of the fiber Bragg gratings, a linear coupling matrix equation between wavelength change and axial stress and shear stress is established. The data from the loading test are substituted into this equation, and the four coupling coefficients corresponding to the fiber are solved using the least squares method. After obtaining the coupling coefficients, they are checked for error under other loading conditions. If the stress inversion error meets the preset accuracy requirements, the coupling coefficient is fixed for subsequent strain decoupling processing.
[0056] The system of equations is solved using matrix operations to obtain the axial stress and shear stress of the bolt at each moment.
[0057] By using a decoupling algorithm, the axial and shear stress components are separated without changing the physical installation structure, thus obtaining the actual bolt stress situation that changes over time.
[0058] Using the decoupled axial stress and shear stress as input, a pre-trained support vector machine (SVM) model is constructed for real-time discrimination, and the results of anomaly probability and anomaly type determination are compared with the historical stress database.
[0059] The pre-trained support vector machine (SVM) model comprises three parts: feature construction, training data preparation, and model training and parameter optimization. First, based on the historical axial and shear stresses of bolts during normal service, fundamental features including stress amplitude, stress change rate, and short-term stability indices are extracted to form a stress feature vector for training. Then, normal operating condition data is selected from long-term monitoring records, and a small number of typical abnormal operating conditions are manually labeled to construct a training set with category information. The training set is input into the SVM model, and the stress features are mapped to a high-dimensional space through a kernel function, making normal and abnormal samples separable. Simultaneously, cross-validation is used to optimize the kernel function type, penalty factor, and kernel parameters. After training, the model is validated offline to ensure that its sensitivity and generalization ability to different stress trends meet diagnostic requirements. Finally, the model is used as a discriminant for online stress anomaly detection.
[0060] Using a fixed window length, the axial stress and shear stress are divided into sliding frames. For each frame, the mean, root mean square, and correlation coefficient of the axial stress and shear stress are calculated, as follows:
[0061] ;
[0062] ;
[0063] ;
[0064] In the formula, This represents the average value of the axial stress. This represents the average shear stress. The total number of frames. For the first Axial stress of the frame, For the first Shear stress of the frame; The root mean square of the axial stress is given. is the root mean square of the shear stress; The correlation coefficient between axial and shear stress;
[0065] The feature vectors are concatenated in a fixed order, then standardized. The standardized feature vectors are then input into a pre-trained support vector machine (SVM) model using a radial basis function (RBF) kernel. The decision function of the SVM model is expressed as follows:
[0066] ;
[0067] In the formula, This is the original score vector. For support vectors, The standardized feature vector, The coefficients obtained during training, The labels obtained during training, For bias terms, This represents the total number of support vectors.
[0068] The probability estimate is obtained by using Platt calibration for the score of each category, as follows:
[0069] ;
[0070] In the formula, For the first Category probability, and These are the calibration parameters determined during training through cross-validation. For belonging to the first Category probability, For the first The scores for each category; the model's inference results are the probabilities for all categories.
[0071] Parallel to SVM discrimination, a comparison with the historical stress database is performed: using the class covariance matrices and class center vectors calculated from the historical normal and abnormal sample sets during the training phase, the distance between the current frame feature vector and the class center is calculated, expressed as:
[0072] ;
[0073] In the formula, The current frame feature vector and the first Distance from the center of the category For the first The inverse matrix of class covariance, It is the transpose symbol. For the first Category center vector;
[0074] A joint judgment is made based on the obtained category probabilities and distances: if a category simultaneously satisfies the condition that the category probability is greater than a predetermined probability and the distance is less than a predetermined distance, it is judged as abnormal; if all category probabilities and distances are within the normal range, it is judged as normal, and the final abnormal diagnosis result is output.
