Progressive health monitoring method for cable system in cable structure based on cable force monitoring

Abstract

The invention relates to a progressive health monitoring method for a cable system in a cable structure on the basis of cable tension monitoring. On the premise of taking cable tension as the monitored value, the progressive health monitoring method considers that linear relations among a current value vector of a monitored value, an initial value vector of the monitored value, a value change matrix of the unit damage monitored value and a current nominal damage vector are approximate, and particularly nonlinear relation characteristics between the vectors are more obvious when the number of damaged cables is numerous or the damage degree is larger. The invention provides the method for piecewise approximation of nonlinear relations by the linear relations on the basis of cable tension monitoring in order to overcome the defects. The method splits a large section into a plurality of continuous subsections; the linear relations in each subsection is accurate enough; and a non-inferior solution of a current cable damage vector can be calculated in each subsection by a proper algorithm such as a multiobjective optimization algorithm, so that the position and the damage degree of a damaged cable can be accurately determined.

Description

technical field [0001] Based on the monitoring of cable force, the present invention discloses a progressive health monitoring method for identifying damaged cables in cable systems (referring to all load-bearing cables) of cable structures (especially large cable structures, such as large cable-stayed bridges and suspension bridges). A monitoring method belongs to the field of engineering structure health monitoring. Background technique [0002] The cable system is usually a key component of the cable structure, and its failure often leads to the failure of the entire structure. Based on structural health monitoring technology to identify cable systems (especially large cable structures, such as large cable-stayed bridges, suspension bridges) in the cable system The damaged cable is a method with great potential. At present, the structural health monitoring technology mainly monitors the cable force, and identifies the damaged cable and its damage degree according to the ...

However, as far as a single cable is concerned, the change of its cable force has a clear and monotonous relationship with its health status (damage degree). However, when the cable is a cable structure (especially a large cable structure, such as a large cable-stayed bridge, When one of the cable systems of a suspension bridge), since the change of the cable force of each specific cable is not only affected by its own health status, but also affected by the health status of other cables, the cable force of each specific cable is observed Even under the condition of the same health status of the cable (same damage degree or no damage), the phenomenon of the change of its cable force, which is positive and negative, large and small, will be monitored, which is very important for the identification of damaged cables. very unfavorable
