Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If a single monitoring method is used, then the device structure is simple, but the monitoring effect is general and cannot be adjusted according to actual situation
Solution Approach 1:
The monitoring device is segmented into multiple independent monitoring components (stress monitoring, displacement monitoring, acoustic emission monitoring, gas monitoring) that can be selectively activated. Each component is a separate module with its own sensors and measurement mechanisms, allowing the system to be configured based on specific monitoring needs without requiring complete system deployment.
Solution Approach 2:
The device employs adjustable monitoring parameters and dynamic configuration capabilities, where monitoring frequencies, sensor positions, and active monitoring types can be modified based on real-time conditions. The radial adjustment mechanism allows dynamic repositioning of sensors along the drill hole radius to adapt to varying rock mass conditions.
2Measurement precision
If radial adjustment components with elastic components are used to ensure tight attachment, then the measurement precision is improved, but the device complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The elastic components (springs) are configured to automatically adjust the attachment pressure between the monitoring device and the drill hole wall. The system uses its own structural elasticity to maintain optimal contact force, eliminating the need for external adjustment mechanisms or additional actuators. The radial adjustment mechanism allows the device to self-regulate its attachment force based on hole diameter variations.
3Reliability
If multiple monitoring components are integrated, then the monitoring comprehensiveness is improved, but the device complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The monitoring device integrates multiple monitoring functions (stress, displacement, acoustic emission, gas detection) within a single unified platform that shares common structural elements, power supply, and data processing systems. The drill hole-based installation method serves as a universal approach for deploying all monitoring components, reducing the need for separate installation procedures for each sensor type.
