Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of complex structure state identification, and more specifically, to a method, system, device, and medium for identifying the state of a connection structure. Background Technology

[0002] The structural condition of equipment connections directly affects the reliability and safety of the entire equipment system. However, for some major and complex equipment, direct health monitoring is often not feasible. To understand the structural condition of critical internal connections, diagnosis must rely on indirect monitoring information such as sound and vibration. Vibration and sound information is rich, including not only responses related to the target structure's condition but also the complex responses of the overall structure. To extract information related to the target structure from indirect monitoring quantities such as vibration and sound, sensitive information analysis and feature extraction must be conducted in conjunction with the target structure's response characteristics.

[0003] Existing structural state diagnosis methods based on acoustic and vibration signals generally include time-domain analysis, frequency-domain analysis, time-frequency analysis, and machine learning. Among these, time-frequency analysis is currently one of the most commonly used methods in the field of signal processing. The SDP method is a novel image processing technique that maps a one-dimensional time-domain waveform to radius and angle values ​​in polar coordinates, thus forming a symmetrical image in polar coordinate space. This method only processes time-domain signals, thereby bypassing complex time-frequency analysis. However, traditional SDP methods exhibit identical features across different mirror planes, leading to redundancy in overall information. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a connection structure state identification method, system, device and medium, which solves the problem that the features of the traditional SDP method are the same on different mirror planes, resulting in redundancy in the overall information of the two-dimensional image.

[0010] In one implementation, the parameters include the number of mirror-symmetric images, the angle magnification factor, and the time lag factor.

[0011] In one implementation, each time-domain signal of different frequencies is converted into a two-dimensional image in polar coordinates according to configured parameters, resulting in a symmetrical point image formed by the combination of n different frequency signals, including:

[0015] In one implementation, the polar radius is calculated as follows: ,in, Let i be the i-th sampling point of the m-th time-domain signal. Let be the minimum value of the m-th time-domain signal. Let m be the maximum value of the m-th time-domain signal, where m ranges from 1 to n.

[0016] In one implementation, the formula for calculating the clockwise rotation angle is: Where T represents the time lag factor and A represents the angle magnification factor;

[0017] The formula for calculating the counterclockwise rotation angle is: .

[0018] A second aspect of the present invention provides a connection structure state identification system, the system comprising:

[0019] The signal decomposition module is used to decompose the acoustic and vibration response signal of the connection structure using the generalized variational mode decomposition algorithm to obtain n time-domain signals of different frequencies, where n is a positive integer;

[0020] The transformation module is used to configure the parameters of the symmetric point image transformation algorithm. Based on the configured parameters, it converts each time-domain signal of different frequencies into a two-dimensional image in polar coordinates, and obtains a symmetric point image formed by the combination of n different frequency signals.

[0021] The identification module is used to identify the state of different connection structures based on a symmetrical point image formed by a combination of n different frequency signals.

[0022] In one implementation, the parameters include the number of mirror-symmetric images, the angle magnification factor, and the time lag factor.

[0023] In one implementation, the transformation module is specifically used for:

[0024] Calculate the polar radius of each time-domain signal at the i-th sampling point;

[0025] Calculate the clockwise and counterclockwise rotation angles corresponding to the polar coordinate radius of the i-th sampling point;

[0026] Based on the polar coordinate radius, clockwise rotation angle, and counterclockwise rotation angle, the polar coordinates of each time-domain signal are generated, and a symmetrical point image formed by the combination of n different frequency signals is drawn along the polar coordinates.

[0031] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0032] This invention employs a generalized variational mode decomposition algorithm to decompose the acoustic and vibration response signals of the connection structure, obtaining n independent time-domain signals of different frequencies. Then, the n independent time-domain signals of different frequencies are individually analyzed by SDP, and a symmetrical point image formed by the combination of the n different frequency signals is plotted. The feature dispersion of each image is different, which can effectively reflect the feature information of the connection structure under different states, thereby effectively supporting the state identification of the connection structure.

[0038] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this invention clearer, the invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the embodiments and accompanying drawings. The illustrative embodiments and descriptions of this invention are only for explaining this invention and are not intended to limit this invention.

[0039] It should be noted that the terms "comprising" or "may include" used in the various embodiments of this application indicate the presence of the claimed function, operation, or element, and do not limit the addition of one or more functions, operations, or elements. Furthermore, as used in the various embodiments of this application, the terms "comprising," "having," and their cognates are intended only to indicate a specific feature, number, step, operation, element, component, or combination of the foregoing, and should not be construed as primarily excluding the presence of one or more other features, numbers, steps, operations, elements, components, or combinations of the foregoing, or adding one or more combinations of the foregoing.

[0040] It should be understood that terms such as "first" and "second" are used for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly specifying the number of technical features indicated. Therefore, a feature defined as "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include one or more of that feature. In the description of this invention, "a plurality of" means two or more, unless otherwise explicitly specified.

[0041] As described in the background section, existing structural state diagnosis methods based on acoustic and vibration signals generally include time-domain analysis, frequency-domain analysis, time-frequency analysis, and machine learning. Among these, time-frequency analysis is currently one of the most commonly used methods in the field of signal processing. The SDP method is a novel image processing technique that maps a one-dimensional time-domain waveform to radius and angle values ​​in polar coordinates, thus forming a symmetrical image in polar coordinate space. This method processes only time-domain signals, thereby bypassing complex time-frequency analysis. However, traditional SDP methods exhibit identical features across different mirror planes, leading to redundancy in the overall information.

[0042] To this end, this invention provides a method for identifying the state of a connection structure. The method uses a generalized variational mode decomposition algorithm to decompose the acoustic and vibration response signal of the connection structure to obtain n independent time-domain signals of different frequencies. Then, the n independent time-domain signals of different frequencies are analyzed separately using SDP and a symmetrical point image formed by the combination of the n different frequency signals is plotted. The feature dispersion of each image is different, which can effectively reflect the feature information of the connection structure under different states, thereby effectively supporting the state identification of the connection structure.

[0043] The following will provide a detailed description of the connection structure state identification method provided in this embodiment, with reference to specific implementation schemes, such as... Figure 1 As shown, the method includes:

[0044] S101, the generalized variational mode decomposition algorithm is used to decompose the acoustic and vibration response signal of the connection structure to obtain n time-domain signals of different frequencies, where n is a positive integer.

[0045] Specifically, Generalized Variational Mode Decomposition (GVMD) is a signal processing algorithm that, as an extension of traditional Variational Mode Decomposition (VMD), aims to overcome the limitations of VMD in terms of flexibility in adjusting frequency scale and spectral position. GVMD has multi-scale and fixed-frequency decomposition capabilities, and can decompose a signal into multiple narrowband modes or a combination of narrowband and wideband modes.

[0046] For example, such as Figure 2 As shown, GVMD decomposition is performed on the acoustic-vibration response signal x of the wedge-shaped ring connection structure. With n=6 decomposition modes, six independent time-domain signals of different frequencies are obtained. , , ..., Each signal has a time domain length of 2000.

[0047] S102, Configure the parameters of the symmetric point image transformation algorithm, and convert each time domain signal of different frequencies into a two-dimensional image in polar coordinates according to the configured parameters, so as to obtain a symmetric point image formed by the combination of n different frequency signals.

[0048] In this embodiment, the parameters include the number of mirror-symmetric images, the angle magnification factor, and the time lag factor. It should be noted that the number of mirror-symmetric images must be consistent with the number of decomposition modes in the generalized variational mode decomposition, which is 6; the angle magnification factor is set to 40; and the time lag factor is set to 200.

[0049] Specifically, after configuring the parameters, the six time-domain signals of different frequencies are transformed into two-dimensional images in polar coordinates using a symmetric point image transformation algorithm, resulting in n GVMD-SDP images, which are the symmetric point images formed by the combination of n different frequency signals provided in this embodiment. The transformation process is as follows:

[0050] First, calculate the polar radius of each time-domain signal at the i-th sampling point; where the formula for calculating the polar radius is: ,in, Let i be the i-th sampling point of the m-th time-domain signal. Let be the minimum value of the m-th time-domain signal. Let m be the maximum value of the m-th time-domain signal, where m ranges from 1 to n.

[0051] Next, calculate the clockwise and counterclockwise rotation angles corresponding to the polar coordinate radius of the i-th sampling point; where the formula for calculating the clockwise rotation angle is: Where T represents the time lag factor and A represents the angle magnification factor; the formula for calculating the counterclockwise rotation angle is: ;

[0052] Finally, based on the polar coordinate radius, clockwise rotation angle, and counterclockwise rotation angle, the polar coordinates of each time-domain signal are generated, and a symmetrical point image formed by the combination of n different frequency signals is drawn along the polar coordinates.

[0053] Calculate the polar coordinate radii of six independent time-domain signals. The expression is as follows: In the formula, i represents the independent component signal. The i-th point, where m ranges from 1 to 6 and i ranges from 1 to 2000.

[0054] Calculate the polar coordinate radii of six independent time-domain signals. The corresponding angle is expressed as follows:

[0055] ×40; ×40, where m ranges from 1 to 6.

[0056] Based on the angle, obtain the polar coordinates of different independent components. [ , ]and [ , ], and plotted GVMD-SDP images of six independent time-domain signals along polar coordinates, such as Figure 3 As shown, the GVMD-SDP images under different states show significant differences, and the six petal features are scattered differently under different states, which can effectively reflect the characteristic information of the wedge ring connection structure under different pre-tightening states.

[0057] S103 identifies the state of different connection structures based on a symmetrical point image formed by a combination of n different frequency signals.

[0058] Specifically, the GVMD-SDP image obtained based on the SDP transformation mentioned above can effectively reflect the characteristic information of different pre-tightening states of the wedge ring, thereby effectively supporting state identification.

[0059] like Figure 4 As shown, this embodiment also provides a connection structure state identification system, the system including:

[0060] The signal decomposition module 410 is used to decompose the acoustic and vibration response signal of the connection structure using the generalized variational mode decomposition algorithm to obtain n time-domain signals of different frequencies, where n is a positive integer;

[0061] The transformation module 420 is used to configure the parameters of the symmetric point image transformation algorithm. Based on the configured parameters, it converts each time-domain signal of different frequencies into a two-dimensional image in polar coordinates to obtain a symmetric point image formed by the combination of n different frequency signals.

[0062] The identification module 430 is used to identify the state of different connection structures based on a symmetrical point image formed by a combination of n different frequency signals.

[0063] In one embodiment, the parameters include the number of mirror-symmetric images, the angle magnification factor, and the time lag factor.

[0064] In one embodiment, the transformation module 420 is specifically used for:

[0065] Calculate the polar radius of each time-domain signal at the i-th sampling point;

[0066] Calculate the clockwise and counterclockwise rotation angles corresponding to the polar coordinate radius of the i-th sampling point;

[0067] Based on the polar coordinate radius, clockwise rotation angle, and counterclockwise rotation angle, the polar coordinates of each time-domain signal are generated, and a symmetrical point image formed by the combination of n different frequency signals is drawn along the polar coordinates.
