AI Technical Summary
Existing methods for detecting bridge cable tension have problems such as large errors, lack of failure protection, large size, large temperature drift, poor adaptability, and inability to conduct long-term stable online monitoring, making it difficult to meet the intelligent operation and maintenance needs of modern large-scale cable-stayed bridges.
Employing a piezoelectric sensor and a shape memory alloy temperature control coupling device, combined with a load balancing protection mechanism and a signal processing module, it achieves high-sensitivity force measurement, temperature control coupling, self-locking protection, and miniaturized embedded installation, and is equipped with a green and environmentally friendly recycled solid waste concrete model.
It achieves high precision, strong stability, good adaptability, and all-weather online monitoring, has failure safety protection, is environmentally friendly, and is suitable for real-time cable force detection of long-span bridges.
