Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of structural health monitoring and intelligent operation and maintenance technology for railway transportation infrastructure, and in particular to a physical-data hybrid method for predicting temperature-induced deformation and irregularities of ballastless track slabs. Background Technology

[0002] Ballastless track slabs are subjected to complex environments such as solar radiation, atmospheric temperature, and wind speed over long periods. Non-uniform temperature fields and vertical temperature gradients form between the top and bottom surfaces, and between shallow and deep layers of the track slab. Under thermal expansion constraints and support boundary conditions, this easily induces defects such as track slab arching, end separation, mortar layer delamination, and joint width deformation. Under extreme weather conditions, excessive temperature-induced deformation can alter the geometry of the rail top surface, affecting wheel-rail contact and vehicle dynamic response, threatening driving safety and passenger comfort. Therefore, it is necessary not only to understand the evolution of the multi-depth temperature field within the slab but also to predict track slab deformation based on temperature, further assessing its impact on driving safety. This comprehensive assessment, from environmental monitoring to structural response and driving risk evaluation, provides a real-time evaluation method for the service performance and driving safety of track slabs under long-term environmental conditions.

[0003] Currently, existing research has established thermo-mechanical coupled finite element models of track slabs to solve for the temperature and deformation fields within the slabs. These models can characterize the temperature transfer and temperature-induced deformation mechanisms in the depth direction under relatively complete meteorological excitation and structural stratification conditions, providing a reliable numerical basis for physical priors. However, finite element calculations are mostly geared towards representative working conditions or offline simulations, while field monitoring sequences are often short-term and limited in the number of measurement points. The two differ in data scale and application objectives, making it difficult to directly replace field assessments with finite element results and form a forecast chain that can be linked to monitoring data in real time and is oriented towards engineering deployment. Pure data-driven methods (such as artificial neural networks and LSTM) have a certain fitting ability for nonlinear time-varying sequences, but they are sensitive to the number and distribution of training samples, have weak physical interpretability, and lack the ability to generalize to sudden weather changes. Existing hybrid-driven schemes mostly focus on temperature prediction or local deformation monitoring, lacking a temperature prediction framework that combines the equivalent air temperature heat transfer mechanism, depth-direction physical information transfer, and data-driven learning residual correction. Furthermore, there is a lack of a method for the whole-process evaluation of train operation safety performance, which involves calculating the vertical deformation field from the predicted slab temperature and further superimposing it onto track irregularities. Summary of the Invention
