[0002] In building underpinning projects, column underpinning technology is a key technique for structural reinforcement and repair. To ensure the overall load-bearing capacity and stability of the new column and the existing foundation after underpinning, a tight fit between the connection areas must be ensured. However, concrete inevitably undergoes volume shrinkage during the hardening process, especially with the use of flowing concrete, which can easily lead to uneven contact or gaps between the new column and the foundation, thus affecting structural safety and load-bearing performance.

[0030] Before disclosing the embodiments of the present invention, the technical problem solved by the present invention is described: Traditional methods for measuring shrinkage deformation rely on manual operation and simple mechanical equipment, such as displacement gauges and rulers. These methods are not only difficult to achieve real-time monitoring, but also have low measurement accuracy, failing to accurately capture the complex physical changes during the hardening process of concrete. Furthermore, the hardening of concrete is affected by various environmental factors, such as changes in temperature, heat of hydration, and ambient humidity, all of which significantly influence its shrinkage behavior. Therefore, there is a need to provide a method and system capable of accurately monitoring and predicting the complex dynamic behavior of concrete during hardening, such as… Figure 5 As shown in the figure, this diagram illustrates the concrete hardening deformation prediction method and the system's real-time monitoring and adjustment flowchart, recording the entire process of data acquisition, fusion processing, and system suggestion feedback from various sensors during the concrete hardening process.
[0031] Example 1:
[0032] This embodiment provides a method for predicting concrete hardening deformation.
[0033] The specific implementation process is as follows:
[0034] See Figure 1 The figure shows that the method includes steps S100 to S600.
[0035] Step S100: Obtain historical sensor dataset, which includes concrete deformation parameters, bonding pressure between concrete and foundation, concrete temperature, and ambient humidity.
[0036] Specifically, the historical sensor dataset is collected from concrete structure construction projects in the field of tunnels and underground engineering, focusing on monitoring data of the hardening process of flowing concrete in actual projects. The dataset covers four core dimensions: concrete deformation parameters, bonding pressure between concrete and the foundation, concrete temperature, and ambient humidity. All data are collected by corresponding sensors throughout the construction cycle: displacement sensors fixed to the bottom of existing foundations monitor shrinkage deformation; pressure sensors installed at the bottom of the foundation record bonding pressure data; temperature changes due to concrete hydration heat are captured by temperature sensors embedded in the formwork; and ambient humidity fluctuations are obtained from humidity sensors on the side of the foundation. Simultaneously, the dataset must include monitoring data under different construction environments and concrete mix proportions. The raw data undergoes preliminary screening and calibration to remove obvious outliers, ensuring data integrity, continuity, and validity, providing comprehensive and reliable basic data support for subsequent analysis.
[0037] Step S200: Perform data fusion analysis processing based on the historical sensor dataset, filter out noise and optimize estimation accuracy based on a unified state estimation framework, and obtain a fused state vector.
[0038] Specifically, after all sensors are calibrated, they are connected to the central control system via a wireless network to ensure real-time data transmission. A unified state estimation framework is constructed based on the Kalman filter algorithm, and data fusion analysis is performed on the historical sensor dataset. First, the measured values of four parameters—concrete deformation, bonding pressure, temperature, and humidity—are integrated into a unified state vector, serving as the basis for state estimation. State prediction is then performed based on the state vector from the previous moment, combined with the state transition matrix and the control input matrix related to construction adjustments, while considering the impact of process noise to complete covariance prediction. Next, the measured values of various sensors are substituted into the framework for updating and correction. By calculating the Kalman gain, combined with the observation matrix and the measurement noise covariance matrix, the prediction results are optimized to obtain a fused state vector after noise removal. The entire process is continuously iterated during data processing; each new set of data inputs performs a prediction and update, effectively filtering out noise interference in sensor measurements and data transmission, optimizing parameter estimation accuracy, and ensuring that the fused state vector accurately reflects the true state of the concrete hardening process. This ensures that the system maintains high accuracy, real-time performance, and stability throughout the entire process.
[0039] Step S300: Based on the fused state vector, establish a nonlinear mapping relationship between the displacement, pressure, temperature and humidity parameter sequences and the shrinkage deformation sequence to obtain a concrete shrinkage trend prediction model.
[0040] Specifically, based on the fused state vector, the raw data stream is received in real time with a set sampling period (e.g., 1 second or 5 seconds). Displacement, pressure, temperature, and humidity parameters at different time points are extracted to construct corresponding parameter sequences. Simultaneously, the concrete shrinkage deformation at each time point is analyzed to form a shrinkage deformation sequence. Feature extraction is performed on both sequences. Through differencing and normalization, the parameter sequences are transformed into feature variables that reflect the rate of change between adjacent time points, focusing on feature indicators that significantly affect the concrete shrinkage trend. Based on the characteristics of time-series data, a nonlinear regression method is used to construct a mapping relationship model. Displacement, pressure, temperature, and humidity feature variables are used as inputs, and shrinkage deformation is used as the output. Through training and fitting with a large amount of historical data, the predicted shrinkage trend value is obtained. During the modeling process, the nonlinear mapping logic of the model is optimized by combining the physical laws of concrete hydration reaction, allowing the model to accurately reflect the inherent laws of concrete shrinkage deformation under the synergistic effect of multiple parameters. Finally, a robust and highly accurate concrete shrinkage trend prediction model is obtained.
[0041] Step S400: Obtain the real-time sensor dataset and input it into the concrete shrinkage trend prediction model. Through real-time prediction and adaptive updating of the data, obtain the prediction trend and risk assessment results.
[0042] Specifically, displacement, pressure, temperature, and humidity sensors deployed at the engineering site collect sensor data in real time according to a preset sampling period (1 second or 5 seconds), forming a real-time sensor dataset. The data acquisition process ensures continuity and real-time performance. The real-time sensor dataset is first preprocessed using a Kalman filter framework to filter out noise in the real-time measurements, resulting in a fused real-time state vector. This vector is then input into a pre-trained concrete shrinkage trend prediction model. The model calculates the estimated shrinkage displacement of concrete over a future period based on the real-time parameter data, compares it with the current displacement measurement value to obtain the predicted shrinkage trend, and immediately generates a risk warning if the trend value exceeds a preset safety threshold. Simultaneously, the system continuously collects new real-time monitoring data, calculates the residual between the predicted and actual measured values, and adaptively updates the parameters of the prediction model according to the minimum mean square error criterion. This allows the model to dynamically optimize as the concrete hardens, maintaining high prediction accuracy and promptly outputting accurate prediction trends and risk assessment results.
[0043] Step S500: Perform quantitative analysis based on the predicted trend and risk assessment results and the historical sensor dataset. By analyzing the pressure distribution and shrinkage deformation state between the column and the foundation, obtain the stress state criteria for the column and the foundation.
[0044] Specifically, combining predicted trends and risk assessment results, historical sensor datasets and real-time monitoring data are integrated to conduct a multi-dimensional quantitative analysis of the stress state of columns and foundations. First, pressure distribution analysis is performed. Based on the spatial coordinates of the pressure sensors, a two-dimensional distribution model of the column-foundation interface is established. Discrete pressure monitoring data is transformed into a continuous pressure distribution on the interface using interpolation methods. The average pressure and standard deviation of the pressure are calculated to obtain a pressure distribution uniformity index, quantitatively assessing whether the pressure distribution on the interface is uniform. Next, shrinkage deformation analysis is performed. Based on displacement sensor data, the relative deformation and overall average shrinkage rate at different stages of concrete hardening are calculated and compared with the design reference shrinkage limit to locate deviation areas where shrinkage deformation exceeds the limit. Based on the results of these two types of analysis, a multi-dimensional comprehensive evaluation function including pressure uniformity and shrinkage stability is constructed. Weight coefficients for each index are set according to the actual engineering situation. The function calculation yields quantitative criteria for the stress state of columns and foundations. These criteria need to clearly define the quantitative thresholds for different states such as good fit, uneven fit, and excessive deformation, providing clear judgment standards for subsequent fit state assessment.
[0045] Step S600: Evaluate the fit between the newly constructed concrete column and the existing foundation according to the stress state criterion to obtain the concrete hardening deformation evaluation result.
[0046] Specifically, the stress state results calculated by the multidimensional comprehensive evaluation function are compared one by one with preset quantitative thresholds for good fit, uneven fit, and excessive deformation to evaluate the fit between the new concrete column and the existing foundation. Based on the actual values of the pressure distribution uniformity index and shrinkage stability index, and combined with the standard requirements of the stress state judgment criteria, the fit state level is accurately determined. Simultaneously, real-time monitoring data and historical data of the concrete hardening process are used to analyze the causes and impact range of abnormal conditions. For problems such as uneven fit and excessive deformation discovered during the evaluation process, the specific location, degree of exceedance, and corresponding risk level of the abnormal areas are clearly marked, and targeted rectification reference directions are proposed based on the actual project situation. The system integrates all evaluation data, judgment results, and abnormal analysis content to generate a standardized concrete hardening deformation evaluation report. The report includes the fit state level, details of abnormal problems, risk assessment conclusions, and rectification suggestions, ultimately forming a complete and comprehensive concrete hardening deformation evaluation result, providing a scientific and reliable basis for project construction acceptance, subsequent maintenance, and structural safety assurance.
[0047] Further, step S200 includes steps S210 to S230.
[0048] Step S210: Define state variables based on the historical sensor dataset. By combining the measured displacement, pressure, temperature and humidity, obtain the state vector of the measurement dataset.
[0049] Step S220: Predict the hardening state of concrete based on the state vector of the measurement dataset, create a prediction model based on the state vector structure state parameters and map the system state to obtain the prediction state matrix.
[0050] Step S230: Update and correct the prediction results based on the predicted state matrix and historical sensor dataset, and obtain the fused state vector by filtering out noise and optimizing the estimation accuracy based on a unified state estimation framework.
[0051] Specifically, first, determine the placement location of the sensors and install them, such as... Figure 3 As shown in the diagram, displacement sensors are installed at the bottom of the existing foundation to monitor the fit between the concrete and the foundation, as well as shrinkage deformation. Humidity sensors are installed on the sides of the foundation to monitor humidity changes during the concrete hardening process. Pressure sensors are installed at the bottom of the foundation to monitor the pressure between the new column and the foundation in real time, ensuring a tight fit. Temperature sensors are placed inside the formwork before concrete pouring to record changes in the heat of hydration during concrete hardening. All sensors are connected to the central control system via wireless communication technology, enabling real-time data acquisition and transmission, thus supporting subsequent data analysis and monitoring.
[0052] After installation, the sensors are calibrated to ensure data accuracy. Displacement sensors require zero-point calibration to ensure accurate measurement of concrete shrinkage deformation. Pressure sensors are calibrated using standard loads to ensure real-time reflection of pressure changes between the foundation and concrete. Temperature sensors are calibrated according to standard temperatures to ensure accurate capture of hydration heat changes within the concrete. Humidity sensors are also calibrated according to standard humidity levels to accurately monitor humidity fluctuations.
[0053] After all sensors have been calibrated, the software platform of the central control system is activated to ensure it can receive data from the displacement, pressure, temperature, and humidity sensors. Figure 4 As shown in the attached diagram, this illustrates the connection and data processing flow between the sensors and the central control system. Various sensors (displacement, pressure, temperature, humidity) are connected to the central control system wirelessly to collect and transmit relevant data during the concrete hardening process in real time. The central control system is configured with different data acquisition modules according to the sensor type and displays real-time data through a monitoring interface. The data collected by the sensors is fused using a Kalman filter algorithm to remove noise and ensure the accuracy of the measurement data and the stability of the intelligent monitoring. The specific fusion steps are as follows:

[0076] Step S232, Generation of fusion results:
[0077] After the above prediction and update steps, a fused state vector with noise removed is obtained. This vector represents the optimal estimate of displacement, pressure, temperature, and humidity at that moment and is displayed in real time on the central control system interface for trend prediction and alarm judgment. The above steps are continuously iterated throughout the entire concrete hardening process. A prediction and update are performed every time new sensor data is received, ensuring that the system maintains high accuracy, real-time performance, and stability throughout the entire process.
[0078] Further, step S300 includes steps S310 to S330.
[0079] Step S310: Receive the raw data stream according to the fused state vector at a preset sampling period, and convert the displacement, pressure, temperature, and humidity data to obtain a parameter sequence.
[0080] Step S320: Screen and analyze the parameters that affect the shrinkage trend of concrete according to the parameter sequence, and obtain the characteristic variables by differentiating and normalizing the parameters.
[0081] Step S330: Establish a prediction model based on the characteristic variables, predict the future shrinkage deformation trend based on the nonlinear mapping relationship between time series data and shrinkage deformation, and obtain the concrete shrinkage trend prediction model.
[0082] Specifically, the software platform of the central control system is activated to ensure it can receive and process data from various sensors. Data acquisition modules are configured according to sensor type (displacement, pressure, temperature, humidity), and a monitoring interface is set up for real-time data display, establishing historical records for subsequent analysis. System parameters are adjusted according to different data types to ensure the data processing flow adapts to monitoring requirements.
[0083] The system performs real-time analysis of the data collected by the sensors as follows:
[0084] Step S311, Real-time Data Acquisition and Preprocessing:
[0085] The system receives raw data streams in real time using displacement, pressure, temperature, and humidity sensors at a set sampling period (e.g., 1 second or 5 seconds).

For parameters that significantly influence concrete shrinkage trends, the system obtains the following characteristics through differencing and normalization:

[0098] Specifically, the Kalman filter algorithm is used to filter out noise in sensor data, optimizing data accuracy and real-time performance, and ensuring accurate monitoring of the concrete hardening process. Simultaneously, the system's predictive function is configured to track potential deformation trends during concrete hardening. Alarm thresholds and control logic are set for the system. Corresponding alarm values are set based on the safe ranges for displacement, pressure, temperature, and humidity. Once the monitored data exceeds the preset range, the system automatically issues an alarm to alert operators for timely intervention. A comprehensive system test is conducted, simulating different sensor data inputs to check the system's response time, data processing accuracy, and alarm functions. Based on the test results, the data processing speed and system stability are adjusted to optimize overall performance and ensure continuous and stable operation of the system during the concrete hardening process.
[0099] Further, step S400 includes steps S410 to S430.
[0100] Step S410: Based on the real-time sensing data collected by the sensor, substitute the data into the concrete shrinkage trend prediction model to obtain the expected shrinkage trend value.
[0101] Step S420: Calculate the residuals based on the real-time sensing data and the expected shrinkage trend value, and adaptively update the parameters of the concrete shrinkage trend prediction model using data optimization criteria to obtain an optimized prediction model;
[0102] Step S430: Simulate the optimized prediction model based on the displacement measurement value of the real-time sensing data to obtain the prediction trend and risk assessment results.
[0103] Specifically, during the concrete hardening process, the central control system collects data from displacement, pressure, temperature, and humidity sensors in real time. Through the monitoring interface, operators can view the current status of each sensor at any time, including concrete shrinkage deformation, bonding pressure, temperature changes in hydration heat release, and ambient humidity. The system continuously records data at preset time intervals to ensure real-time and continuous monitoring.
[0104] Step S411: The system performs real-time analysis on the data collected by the sensors. Using the Kalman filter algorithm and nonlinear regression model, the system can remove noise and predict the shrinkage trend of concrete. Based on data such as temperature, humidity, and pressure, the system analyzes the hardening state of the concrete, predicts potential deformation risks in advance, and facilitates decision-making by operators.

[0119] Step S431: Mark the predicted shrinkage trend curve, risk assessment results, and possible abnormal periods on the monitoring interface. The system generates adjustment suggestions, such as adjusting ambient humidity, changing curing methods, or increasing local support pressure, to assist operators in decision-making. When the system detects abnormalities during the concrete hardening process, such as excessive displacement or insufficient pressure, it will generate corresponding adjustment suggestions. Operators can manually adjust according to these suggestions to ensure that the concrete hardening process is within a safe range. The suggestions are based on the analysis of current data and trend predictions to help operators make correct operational judgments. All monitoring data throughout the concrete hardening process is stored in the system database, forming a detailed historical record. Through data storage, the hardening process can be retrospectively analyzed later to verify the accuracy of the monitoring process and provide a reference for subsequent similar projects.
[0120] Further, step 500 includes steps S510 to S530.
[0121] Step S510: Analyze the pressure distribution at the interface between the concrete column and the foundation based on the pressure monitoring data of the real-time sensing data. Establish a two-dimensional distribution model of the interface between the column and the foundation based on the spatial arrangement coordinates of the pressure sensors to obtain the uniformity index of the pressure distribution.
[0122] Step S520: Calculate the relative deformation of the concrete based on the displacement measurement data of the real-time sensing data to obtain the overall average shrinkage rate of the concrete.
[0123] Step S530: Analyze the stress condition of the column and the foundation based on the uniformity index of the pressure distribution and the overall average shrinkage rate of the concrete. Combine the predicted trend and risk assessment results to make a multivariate judgment and obtain the stress state criteria of the column and the foundation.
[0124] Specifically, by collecting all monitoring data from displacement, pressure, temperature, and humidity sensors, the system conducts a detailed analysis of the fit between the new column and the existing foundation. The system focuses on assessing the pressure distribution between the column and the foundation during the concrete hardening process and whether shrinkage deformation is within acceptable limits to ensure a good fit.
[0125] By collecting monitoring data from all sensors, the system conducts a detailed analysis of the fit between the newly constructed column and the existing foundation. The specific analysis process is as follows:
