Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of thermal deformation inversion technology, and more specifically to a method for thermal deformation inversion of complex structures based on deep learning technology. Background Technology

[0002] With the rapid development of space technology, the requirements for the dimensional stability of satellite structures are becoming increasingly stringent. However, on-orbit thermal deformation monitoring is constrained by the space environment and structural complexity, making it impossible to reliably monitor spacecraft thermal deformation in orbit around the clock. Therefore, in-orbit thermal deformation inversion for complex structures is essential.

[0003] Because the satellite structure, instruments and equipment and other heat source locations are all quite complex, the temperature field varies depending on the on-orbit operating conditions. The traditional method is to obtain the displacement field by simulating the temperature field obtained by calculation using the finite element method. This method has the disadvantages of large amount of calculation and long time consumption. Summary of the Invention

[0004] To address the problems existing in the prior art, this invention provides a method for inverting the thermal deformation of complex structures based on deep learning technology.

[0005] This application provides a deep learning-based method for structural thermal deformation inversion, including:

[0006] Step S1: Decompose the structure into multiple substructures and obtain a training sample set. The training samples include the heat source temperature, heat source location distribution and displacement field of the structure. Modal analysis results of each substructure are obtained through finite element simulation analysis.

[0007] Step S2: Based on the heat source temperature, heat source location distribution, and displacement field, construct a neural network model, and train the neural network using training samples to fit the mapping relationship between the modal analysis results of each secondary structure and the displacement field.

[0008] Step S3: Construct a deep learning loss function that can balance the loss differences among the various substructures;

[0009] Step S4: Train the neural network model using the training sample set and the deep learning loss function. Take the heat source location distribution in the training samples as input and the displacement field as output, and train the neural network model by minimizing the deep learning loss function.

[0011] In one embodiment of the present invention, step S1 involves obtaining a training sample set using the following steps:

[0012] S11: Construct a finite element model of the structure, determine the temperature field of the structure, and calculate the displacement field of the structure under the temperature field through finite element simulation analysis to obtain a training sample including the distribution of heat source locations and displacement field.

[0015] In one embodiment of the present invention, in step S2, an LSTM model is used to construct a neural network model.

[0016] In one embodiment of the present invention, in step S3, the deep learning loss function that can balance the loss differences of each secondary structure is:

[0024] S402: Compare the displacement field output by the neural network model with the displacement fields of each secondary structure in the training samples, and calculate the prediction accuracy of the neural network model.

[0025] S403: Determine whether the prediction accuracy is greater than the preset accuracy threshold. If yes, use the current neural network model as the completed neural network model. If no, adjust the parameters of the neural network model using the deep learning loss function and return to step S401.

[0026] In one embodiment of the present invention, in step S401, the heat source location distribution in the training samples is input from the neural network input terminal, and the displacement field is obtained by optimizing the modal displacement superposition and rigid body displacement superposition coefficients.

[0027] In one embodiment of the present invention, in step S402, the difference between the predicted and actual displacement field values ​​of each secondary structure is calculated, and the prediction accuracy of the neural network model is comprehensively evaluated.

[0028] In one embodiment of the present invention, in step S403, an accuracy threshold is set for each secondary structure.

The deep learning neural network is trained by minimizing the loss function.

[0045] In one embodiment of the present invention, the number of training samples is determined according to actual needs. Generally speaking, the more effective training samples there are, the higher the prediction accuracy of the trained neural network model.

This represents the thermal displacement component in the Y direction of the defined three-dimensional coordinate system. This represents the thermal displacement component in the Z direction of the defined three-dimensional coordinate system.

[0048] In some possible implementations, the training sample set is obtained in the following ways:

[0049] The temperature field is determined based on the satellite's on-orbit operating conditions and the distribution of instruments and equipment. The displacement field under this temperature field is calculated using the finite element simulation analysis method, resulting in a training sample that includes the distribution of heat source locations and the displacement field.

[0050] Repeat the process of obtaining training samples until a preset number of training samples are obtained, thus obtaining a training sample set.

[0051] In some possible implementations, the displacement field of the secondary structure is obtained by combining modal superposition and rigid body displacement:

[0052]

[0053] in, For thermal deformation field, Let i be the displacement field of the i-th mode of the secondary structure. These are the modal displacement field weighting coefficients. Let be the rigid body displacement field.

[0054] Step S2: Based on the heat source temperature, heat source location distribution, and displacement field, construct a neural network model, and train the neural network using training samples to fit the mapping relationship between the modal analysis results of each secondary structure and the displacement field.

[0056] Step S3: Construct a deep learning loss function that can balance the loss differences among the substructures.

[0057] In one embodiment of the present invention, the training objective of the neural network model is to minimize the difference between the predicted value and the true value.

[0058] Specifically, in one embodiment of the present invention, the deep learning loss function that can balance the loss differences of each secondary structure is:

[0059]

[0060] in, This represents the output data loss corresponding to the i-th secondary structure. This represents the weighting coefficient.

[0063] in, Indicates the number of training samples. Indicates the first The predicted value corresponding to each training sample Indicates the first The true value in each training sample.

[0064] Step S4: Train the neural network model using the training sample set and the deep learning loss function. The heat source coordinates in the training samples are used as input, and the normalized displacement fields of each secondary structure in the training samples are used as output. The neural network model is trained by minimizing the deep learning loss function, including the following steps S401~S403:

[0065] Step S401: Input the coordinates and temperatures of the heat sources in multiple training samples into the neural network model in sequence to obtain the corresponding displacement field output by the neural network model.

[0066] In one embodiment of the present invention, the heat source temperature and coordinates in the training samples are input from the input end of the neural network, and the displacement field is obtained by optimizing the modal displacement superposition and rigid body displacement superposition coefficients.

[0067] Step S402: Compare the predicted displacement field output by the neural network model with the displacement fields of each secondary structure in the training samples, and calculate the prediction accuracy of the neural network model.

[0068] In one embodiment of the present invention, the difference between the predicted and actual displacement field values ​​of each secondary structure is calculated, and the prediction accuracy of the neural network model is comprehensively evaluated.

[0069] Step S403: Determine whether the prediction accuracy is greater than the preset accuracy threshold. If yes, use the current neural network model as the completed neural network model. If no, adjust the parameters of the neural network model using the loss function and return to step S401.

[0070] In one embodiment of the present invention, an accuracy threshold is set for each substructure. If the prediction accuracy obtained at least 5 times is greater than the preset accuracy threshold of the substructure, the current neural network model is used as the completed neural network model and the neural network model training ends; otherwise, the parameters of the neural network model are updated using the loss function and the neural network model training continues.

[0071] In some possible implementations, the method further includes:

[0072] Before training the neural network model using the training sample set, the displacement fields of each secondary structure are normalized.

[0073] Step S5: Perform displacement field inversion using the trained neural network model.

[0074] Specifically, when satellite displacement field inversion is required, the satellite's heat source temperature and position data are input into a trained neural network model to obtain the structural displacement field output by the neural network model.

[0075] An embodiment of the present invention provides a method for inverting the thermal deformation of complex structures based on deep learning technology. By combining modal displacement superposition and rigid body displacement, the problem of obtaining the displacement field from temperature field simulation is transformed into an optimization problem of minimizing the loss function. The deep learning neural network is trained by minimizing the loss function. Based on the trained deep learning neural network, the displacement field of complex structures can be quickly inverted using only the temperature and location distribution data of the heat source, reducing the computational cost while achieving high inversion accuracy.
