Abstract
This study proposes a new method for the rapid and non-contact measurement of cable forces in cable-stayed bridges, including a cable force calculation method based on measured cable shapes and a batch acquisition method for the true shape of cables. First, a nonlinear regression model for estimating cable forces based on measured cable shapes is established, and a Gauss–Newton-based cable force solving method is proposed. Furthermore, terrestrial laser scanning technology is used to collect geometric data of the cables. Meanwhile, automatic segmentation, noise reduction, and centerline extraction algorithms for the cable point cloud are proposed to accurately and efficiently obtain the cable shape. The correctness of the proposed cable force calculation method is verified in a well-designed experiment, with the measurement error of cable forces for 15 test samples being less than 1%. Finally, the proposed point cloud automation processing algorithm and cable force measurement method are fully tested on a cable-stayed bridge with a span of 460 m. The measurement accuracy of the proposed method for actual bridge cable tension is comparable to that of the frequency method, but the detection efficiency on site is nine times higher than that of the traditional frequency method. Overall, this study provides a new measurement method for construction control, health monitoring, intelligent detection, and other fields of cable-stayed bridges.
