[0019] like Figure 1 As shown, as an embodiment of the present invention, this embodiment provides a smart pile driving method for offshore wind power monopiles, including the following steps: S1. Construct an initial digital twin model integrating seabed geological exploration data and pile-soil interaction mechanisms, and deploy multi-source sensors on the piling vessel and offshore wind turbine monopiles to collect dynamic response data during the hammering process. Specifically, this includes the following steps: S101: Obtain static cone penetration profiles, multibeam bathymetry results, and shallow seismic reflection data of the target sea area, and extract the burial depth range, soil type identification, undrained shear strength, soil density, and permeability parameters of each soil layer from them. S102: Input the geometric and material parameters of the offshore wind turbine monopile into the geotechnical coupling modeling platform. The geometric parameters include the outer diameter. The material parameters include elastic modulus and yield strength, such as wall thickness and pile length. S103: Based on the above information, an initial digital twin model is established, which includes a side friction calculation module and a pile end bearing capacity calculation module distributed along the depth. S104: Install an impact force sensor and a triaxial accelerometer on the top of the single pile, arrange strain gauges and pore water pressure sensors in the middle of the pile body and near the pile end, and set a high-precision displacement monitoring device in the pile driving vessel hoisting system. S105: Activate the synchronous data acquisition system to continuously record time-series signals, including hammer force, during each hammering process. Pile top acceleration Pile strain pore water pressure and real-time displacement of the pile .
[0020] It should be noted that by integrating high-resolution seabed geological exploration data with single-pile physical parameters to construct an initial digital twin model, and deploying a multi-source sensor network covering the entire hammer-pile-soil link, comprehensive perception of the pile driving environment and structural response was achieved. This provides a high-fidelity and highly synchronous data foundation for subsequent dynamic modeling and intelligent control, effectively solving the core problems of geological blind spots and invisible processes in traditional pile driving.
[0021] S2. Based on the dynamic response data fusion of soil mechanics laws and wave propagation characteristics, the current state of the pile-soil system is reconstructed, and the soil strength parameters and resistance distribution in the digital twin model are updated to obtain the dynamic pile driving resistance prediction results. Specifically, this includes the following steps: S201: The collected pile top acceleration signal Numerical integration was performed to obtain the time history of the pile top velocity. ; S202: Combining the hammering force With pile resistance Calculate the downward stress wave for; ; Among them, the pile body impedance , The elastic modulus of the pile material. The cross-sectional area of the pile is... The velocity of a one-dimensional elastic wave in the pile; Simultaneously calculate the upward stress wave for: ; S203: Utilizing the aforementioned upward wave Inverse the depth to obtain the depth. Increment of side friction resistance at the location expression: ; This formula shows that the side friction is determined by the time derivative of the upward wave, reflecting the dynamic damping effect of the soil on the pile motion; S204: Introducing pore water pressure The effect on the effective stress of soil is defined by the effective stress reduction factor. : ; in, This represents the initial effective vertical stress of the soil at the current depth. S205: Effective stress reduction factor Used to correct the original adhesion coefficient The side friction resistance after the disturbance is obtained. : ; in, This represents the undrained shear strength of the corresponding soil layer. The pile end bearing capacity is simultaneously corrected as follows: ; in, This is the theoretical bearing capacity coefficient. The excess pressure reduction factor in the pile tip region. The undrained shear strength of the soil layer at the pile tip. This represents the projected area at the pile tip. S206: The final predicted value of total dynamic pile driving resistance is obtained through integration and superposition: ; in, This represents the total dynamic pile driving resistance experienced by a single offshore wind turbine pile at the current penetration depth. This indicates the current actual penetration depth of a single pile, that is, the vertical distance from the pile tip to the seabed surface. This represents the modified distribution function of side friction along depth, after considering soil disturbance, pore water pressure accumulation, and effective stress reduction. It represents the bearing capacity at the pile tip, that is, the resistance of the soil at the pile tip to the pile tip.
[0022] It should be noted that, based on the stress wave propagation theory and measured data of pore water pressure, the side friction and end bearing capacity are dynamically corrected, upgrading the pile driving resistance prediction from a static empirical formula to a time-varying model that considers soil disturbance, excess pore pressure accumulation and age-related softening. This effectively improves the accuracy of resistance prediction and lays a physically reliable calculation basis for precise energy delivery and early risk warning.
[0023] S3. Calculate the optimal hammering energy required under the current working conditions based on the dynamic pile driving resistance prediction results, and generate hammering control commands that match the pile-soil bearing capacity. Specifically, this includes the following steps: S301: Establish the objective function for optimizing hammer impact energy, comprehensively considering construction efficiency and structural safety. The expression is: ; in, To input energy for a single hammer strike, For the desired penetration rate, The maximum tensile stress in the pile body is derived based on wave theory inversion. The allowable tensile stress of the pile material. and These are the normalized weighting coefficients; S302: The total dynamic pile driving resistance described in S206 As a physical constraint, the solution makes Maximize the optimal hammering energy and limited Within the capabilities of the hydraulic hammer equipment, i.e. ; S303: Apply the optimal hammering energy The stroke height and striking frequency of the hydraulic hammer are combined to generate an electronically controlled pulse sequence, which is then output to the hydraulic servo system to execute the next hammering action.
[0024] It should be noted that by introducing a multi-objective optimization function that takes into account both construction efficiency and structural safety, the optimal hammering energy is dynamically solved under the premise of satisfying the pile strength constraint. This avoids the over-driving damage or under-driving stagnation caused by traditional fixed-parameter pile driving, and realizes intelligent control of on-demand supply of hammering energy and precise matching of the real-time bearing capacity of the pile-soil system.
[0025] S4. Execute hammer control commands to carry out pile driving operations, and simultaneously monitor pile driving efficiency, end bearing ratio, and energy utilization attenuation trend to form risk assessment indicators. This specifically includes the following steps: S401: In the After each hammer blow, record the actual penetration depth increment. With the hammering energy consumed this time ; S402: Calculate the cumulative pile driving efficiency index : ; This index reflects the penetration depth achieved per unit of energy; a higher value indicates better pile driving efficiency. It also calculates the end bearing capacity ratio. : ; when When the value exceeds 0.7, it indicates that the pile tip has entered a high-resistivity layer, the contribution of lateral resistance is weakened, and the risk of hammer failure increases. S403: Calculate the energy penetration per unit of the three most recent hammer blows. Linear regression was used to fit its changing trend to obtain the energy utilization decay slope. The expression is: ; like A value less than 0 and an absolute value that continues to increase indicates that soil hardening or pore pressure accumulation has led to a decrease in energy conversion efficiency. S404: Will , , These are combined into a three-dimensional risk assessment vector, which serves as the quantitative basis for the warning of hammer refusal.
[0026] It should be noted that by constructing a three-dimensional risk assessment vector consisting of the pile driving efficiency index, the end bearing ratio, and the energy attenuation slope, the judgment of failure to hammer is upgraded from a single, crude standard to a multi-dimensional, trend-based, and quantitative intelligent criterion, which effectively enhances the sensitivity and accuracy of early signs of failure to hammer.
[0027] S5. When the risk assessment indicators exceed the preset threshold, the intervention decision logic is invoked to generate pause / wait, energy adjustment, or local scour auxiliary measures, and the hammering control command is regenerated based on the pile-soil state after the intervention. Specifically, the following steps are included: S501: Set the lower limit of pile driving efficiency index Upper limit of terminal resistance ratio and the negative threshold of the attenuation slope ; S502: When two consecutive hammering cycles satisfy... , and If this occurs, it is determined that there is a risk of the hammer being refused. S503: Initiating multi-level intervention decision-making logic: 1) If the excess pore water pressure measured by the pore water pressure sensor Exceeding the initial effective vertical stress at the current depth If the pore pressure dissipation rate reaches 60%, a pause and waiting operation will be performed. The pause duration will be dynamically determined based on the pore pressure dissipation rate, until... It has fallen back to a safe range; 2) If the pile tip is located in a sandy soil layer and the end bearing ratio is... If the value exceeds 0.75, the hammering energy for the next hammering cycle will be set to the optimal hammering energy of the previous cycle. 80% to reduce the intensity of impact disturbance; 3) If the soil around the pile is high-plasticity clay and the penetration depth increment of three consecutive hammer blows is less than 1 mm, then activate the annular high-pressure water jet device installed around the pile shoe to locally flush the pile end area with a constant flow rate to weaken the end resistance concentration effect. S504: After completing any of the above intervention measures, re-collect data on hammer force, pile top acceleration, and pore water pressure, input them into the dynamic resistance prediction process, and update the total dynamic pile driving resistance. The optimal hammering energy is recalculated based on the updated results. This generates the next hammer strike control command, achieving closed-loop control.
[0028] It should be noted that by establishing a multi-level intervention decision logic based on physical mechanisms and working condition characteristics, different response measures are automatically triggered for different causes of hammer failure, and control instructions are updated in a closed loop after intervention. This realizes an intelligent operation process from passive hammer stopping to active intervention, state recovery, and continued pile driving, reducing unplanned downtime.
[0029] S6. Continuously execute hammering control and risk intervention operations until the offshore wind turbine monopile reaches the target penetration depth, and use the entire process data for iterative optimization of the digital twin model. Specifically, this includes the following steps: S601: When the cumulative penetration depth of a single pile reaches the design depth Furthermore, the average penetration depth increase of the most recent ten hammer blows does not exceed the hammer-stopping standard. When the hammering operation is stopped; S602: The low-strain reflected wave method is used to conduct a final inspection of the pile integrity to confirm that the pile body has no fractures, necking or serious defects. S603: The entire process data from initial geological modeling, sensor deployment, dynamic resistance prediction, optimal hammer energy calculation, risk assessment to intervention execution will be encapsulated into a structured engineering sample. This sample includes timestamps, soil layer identification, original sensor signals, model update parameters, control command sequences, and final pile driving results. S604: Input the structured engineering sample described in S603 into a cross-project transfer learning network based on an attention mechanism to extract the mapping relationship between geological conditions, dynamic response, and control decisions; S605: Using the extracted mapping relationship, the initial digital twin model of the subsequent offshore wind power monopile driving project is initialized with prior parameters, and the threshold in the hammer failure risk criterion is adaptively calibrated. , and .
[0030] It should be noted that structuring the entire process of engineering data and using it for cross-project transfer learning not only completes the quality closed-loop verification of a single pile driving, but also realizes knowledge accumulation and model evolution, enabling the digital twin system to have continuous learning and generalization capabilities, which can shorten the deployment cycle of new sites and improve the adaptability and robustness of intelligent pile driving methods under complex and variable seabed conditions.
