AI Technical Summary
Existing technologies cannot achieve real-time dynamic monitoring of submarine cable protection devices, lack the ability to collect multi-dimensional physical quantities such as strain, vibration, and attitude of key components in real time, and cannot perform fatigue damage accumulation analysis and life prediction, resulting in a lack of scientific basis for operation and maintenance decisions.
Employing a sensor subsystem, an acquisition and edge processing subsystem, a communication and cloud platform subsystem, and an analysis and early warning software subsystem, the system collects and analyzes strain, acceleration, and attitude data of submarine cable protection devices in real time. Through overall hydrodynamic and local finite element analysis, it identifies danger zones, performs resonance risk identification, strain hazard judgment, and fatigue damage accumulation assessment, and outputs graded early warnings.
It enables real-time dynamic monitoring of submarine cable protection devices, timely detection of potential problems, shortening the fault warning time to one or several days, improving the advance warning and accuracy of fault warning, reducing the risk of faults caused by information lag, and ensuring the safety margin and operation and maintenance efficiency of the submarine cable system.
