A smart concrete girder bridge usually has various sensors, based on which several physical properties can be measured, and hence, the health condition can be evaluated. Cracks are always observed on a smart concrete girder bridge. In particular, some of the cracks are induced by overloaded vehicles, which is dangerous to its safe operation. However, due to the crack opening and closing effect, it exhibits nonlinear responses, posing challenges for accurately assessing its health condition. Influence lines (ILs) are a promising indicator for bridge damage. However, there is limited research on the effect of cracks on the ILs of a smart concrete girder bridge. A digital twin is commonly used to accompany the smart sensing system to accurately evaluate the health condition, where the finite element (FE) model is of great importance. Therefore, this study proposes an element size–independent FE model construction method based on the concrete damage plasticity (CDP) model to investigate the changes of displacement and strain ILs of different types of smart concrete girder bridges with bending cracks, which is helpful to guide how to use the ILs to identify the cracks and evaluate the health condition. Initially, a concrete constitutive model based on crushing/fracture energy is proposed, and the evolution law of tensile damage based on fracture energy is derived to construct the element size–independent FE model. Subsequently, experiments on a reinforced concrete (RC) simply supported beam and a prestressed concrete (PC) simply supported bridge subjected to bending failure are used to verify the FE models constructed by the proposed method. Finally, the FE models of a smart RC T-beam bridge and a smart three-span PC continuous bridge are established to study the changes in ILs caused by bending cracks. The change of displacement IL at the midspan due to cracks for the smart RC bridge exceeds 10% when the reinforcements yield, while it is less than 10% for the smart PC bridge even if the bridge is in the failure state. The change of both displacement and strain ILs becomes greater when the measurement point approaches the cracks, and the change of strain IL is only detectable when the measurement is close to the cracks. Due to the crack opening and closing effect, the displacement and strain ILs of a smart concrete girder bridge with bending cracks are inconsistent when different loads are applied. The findings can also be used as a pre-IL-based crack detection using the passing inspection vehicle-induced dynamic response on a selection of type of ILs, determination of layout of sensors, and mass of inspection vehicle.

智能混凝土梁桥通常具有多种传感器,基于这些传感器可以测量几种物理特性,从而可以评估其健康状况。智能混凝土梁桥经常出现裂缝。特别是,有些裂缝是由超载车辆引起的,这对其安全运行是危险的。然而,由于裂缝的开闭效应,它表现出非线性响应,给准确评估其健康状况带来了挑战。影响线是一种很有前途的桥梁损伤指标。然而,裂缝对智能混凝土梁桥ILs的影响研究较少。智能传感系统通常使用数字孪生模型来准确评估健康状况,其中有限元模型非常重要。因此,本研究提出了一种基于混凝土损伤塑性(CDP)模型的单元尺寸无关有限元模型构建方法,研究不同类型智能混凝土梁桥弯曲裂缝的位移和应变ILs变化,有助于指导如何利用ILs识别裂缝和评估健康状况。首先,提出了基于破碎/断裂能的混凝土本构模型,推导了基于断裂能的拉伸损伤演化规律,构建了与单元尺寸无关的有限元模型。随后,通过钢筋混凝土简支梁和预应力混凝土简支桥的弯曲破坏试验,对所建立的有限元模型进行了验证。最后,建立了智能型钢筋混凝土t梁桥和智能型三跨PC连续梁桥的有限元模型,研究了弯曲裂缝引起的ILs变化。钢筋屈服时,智能RC桥跨中裂缝位移IL的变化超过10%,而智能PC桥即使处于破坏状态,跨中裂缝位移IL的变化也小于10%。当测点靠近裂纹时,位移和应变IL的变化都变大,应变IL的变化只有在测点靠近裂纹时才能检测到。由于裂缝的开闭效应,具有弯曲裂缝的智能混凝土梁桥在不同荷载作用下的位移和应变ls是不一致的。研究结果还可以用于基于il的预裂纹检测,使用通过检测车辆对il类型的选择,传感器布局的确定和检测车辆质量的动态响应。

Deformation is a critical indicator for the safety control of high-arch dams, yet traditional statistical regression methods often exhibit poor predictive performance when applied to long-sequence time series data. In this study, we develop a robust predictive model for deformation behavior in high-arch dams by integrating signal dimensionality reduction with deep learning (DL)-based residual correction techniques. First, the fast Fourier transform is employed to decompose air and water temperature sequences, enabling the extraction of temperature cycle characteristics at the dam boundary. A data-driven statistical monitoring model for dam deformation, based on actual temperature data, is then proposed. Subsequently, an improved Bayesian Ridge regression model is used to construct the dam deformation monitoring framework. The residuals that traditional statistical methods fail to capture are input into an enhanced Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) network to effectively learn the temporal characteristics of the sequence. A high-arch dam with a history of long-term service is used as a case study. Experimental results indicate that the data dimensionality reduction method effectively extracts relevant information from observed temperature data, reducing the number of input variables. Comparative evaluation experiments show that the proposed hybrid predictive model outperforms existing state-of-the-art benchmark algorithms in terms of predictive efficiency and accuracy. Additionally, this approach combines the interpretability of statistical regression methods with the powerful nonlinear modeling capabilities of DL-based models, achieving a synergistic effect.

变形是高拱坝安全控制的重要指标,但传统的统计回归方法在处理长序列时间序列数据时往往表现出较差的预测性能。在这项研究中,我们通过将信号降维与基于深度学习(DL)的残差校正技术相结合,开发了高拱坝变形行为的鲁棒预测模型。首先,利用快速傅里叶变换对空气和水温序列进行分解,提取大坝边界温度循环特征;提出了一种基于实际温度数据的数据驱动的大坝变形统计监测模型。随后,采用改进的贝叶斯岭回归模型构建大坝变形监测框架。将传统统计方法无法捕获的残差输入到增强型长短期记忆(LSTM)网络中,以有效地学习序列的时间特征。以具有长期使用历史的高拱坝为例进行了研究。实验结果表明,数据降维方法有效地从观测温度数据中提取相关信息,减少了输入变量的数量。对比评估实验表明,所提出的混合预测模型在预测效率和准确性方面优于现有的最先进的基准算法。此外,该方法将统计回归方法的可解释性与基于dl的模型强大的非线性建模能力相结合,实现了协同效应。

The bearing capacity of the existing fine-grained soil subgrade is mainly achieved by measuring the modulus, and its testing methods can be divided into two categories including static method and dynamic method. The data connection between the two is still lacking in systematic research. The traditional BB (Benkelman Beam) static test has disadvantages such as slow detection speed, low accuracy, and poor reliability due to the use of deflection index, which is not fully applicable to the expressway. To this end, dynamic and static comparison tests were carried out and a rapid test method for subgrade bearing capacity based on Soil Stiffness Gauge (SSG) and Portable Falling Weight Deflectometer (PFWD) with dynamic modulus was proposed. To establish the connectivity of the static and dynamic modulus, modulus-dependent prediction model was developed. The results show that the multiplier power model with modulus () is superior to the usual linear model (EBB = 0.9415EPFWD − 6.1507, R2 = 0.9639; EBB = 0.7878ESSG − 0.4566,  R2 = 0.8894), and it can replace the traditional BB method. PFWD and SSG were found to be reliable devices with faster and more accurate monitoring of the modulus change of the fine-grained soil subgrade. But they have the property of overestimating material modulus, the modulus ranking of the three instruments is obtained. In this way, it provides a reference for the dynamic and accurate determination and scientific evaluation of the bearing capacity of the highway subgrade.

现有细粒土路基的承载力主要是通过测量模量来实现的,其测试方法可分为静力法和动力法两类。二者之间的数据联系还缺乏系统的研究。传统的 BB(Benkelman Beam)静态试验由于使用挠度指标,存在检测速度慢、精度低、可靠性差等缺点,并不完全适用于高速公路。为此,开展了动静态对比试验,并提出了基于土体刚度仪(SSG)和便携式落锤式挠度仪(PFWD)动态模量的路基承载力快速测试方法。为了建立静态模量和动态模量之间的联系,建立了模量相关预测模型。结果表明,带模量()的乘数功率模型优于通常的线性模型(EBB = 0.9415EPFWD - 6.1507,R2 = 0.9639;EBB = 0.7878ESSG - 0.4566,R2 = 0.8894),可以取代传统的 BB 方法。研究发现,PFWD 和 SSG 是可靠的设备,能更快、更准确地监测细粒土路基的模量变化。但它们都有高估材料模量的特性,因此得出了三种仪器的模量排序。从而为公路路基承载力的动态准确测定和科学评价提供参考。

The deformation of the main girder is an important manifestation of the overall stiffness of suspension bridges, which is essential for assessing bridge performance. Nevertheless, it is difficult to achieve satisfied prediction without fully considering the overall operational loads. To this end, this paper proposes a method to predict the deflection considering multiple operational loads using the monitoring data of a high-speed rail-cum-road suspension bridge. Initially, an improved Gaussian process regression (GPR) model utilizing Bayesian optimization was employed to predict the deformation of the main girder under the condition of nontrain loads. Furthermore, the distinct contributions of temperature, wind, and vehicle load were analyzed. Subsequently, based on the strain and deflection induced by train loads, the sum of sinusoids method was proposed to construct fitting and shape function (FSF) for predicting the main girder deformation under the influence of train loads. Ultimately, the deformation considering overall loads was obtained by adding the deformation under the nontrain and train loads, and the predicted deformation result was verified using the measured data. When compared to other state-of-the-art machine learning algorithms, namely, artificial neural network (ANN), support vector machine (SVM), and decision tree (DT), the improved GPR demonstrates the highest accuracy in predicting the deformation of the main girder under nontrain loads with R2 of 0.9478. In addition, the proposed sum of sinusoids FSF method accurately predicted the deformation of the main girder caused by train loads, with R2 of 0.934. The deformation of the main girder under the influence of overall loads can lay a foundation for the early warning and evaluation of the suspension bridges.

主梁变形是悬索桥整体刚度的重要体现,对于评估桥梁性能至关重要。然而,如果不充分考虑整体运行荷载,就很难获得满意的预测结果。为此,本文利用高速铁路兼公路悬索桥的监测数据,提出了一种考虑多种运行荷载的挠度预测方法。首先,利用贝叶斯优化的改进型高斯过程回归(GPR)模型来预测非列车荷载条件下主梁的变形。此外,还分析了温度、风力和车辆荷载的不同贡献。随后,根据列车荷载引起的应变和挠度,提出了正弦和方法来构建拟合和形状函数(FSF),用于预测列车荷载影响下的主梁变形。最终,通过将非列车荷载和列车荷载下的变形相加,得到了考虑整体荷载的变形,并利用测量数据验证了预测的变形结果。与其他最先进的机器学习算法(即人工神经网络 (ANN)、支持向量机 (SVM) 和决策树 (DT))相比,改进后的 GPR 在预测非列车载荷下主梁的变形方面具有最高的准确性,R2 为 0.9478。此外,提出的正弦之和 FSF 方法准确预测了列车荷载引起的主梁变形,R2 为 0.934。整体荷载影响下的主梁变形可为悬索桥的预警和评估奠定基础。

To address the limitations in accuracy, reliability, and efficiency of traditional cable tension measurement methods, this paper proposes a cable tension assessment method based on 3D laser scanning technology that considers point cloud density. This study first employed a point cloud plane projection algorithm to reduce a 3D point cloud model to a 2D plane, fitting the actual cable shape by considering point cloud density. Subsequently, the parabolic and catenary cable mechanics models were derived to characterize the relationship between cable tension and shape based on force analysis of cable segments and differential segments. The Broyden–Fletcher–Goldfarb–Shanno (BFGS) algorithm was applied to calculate cable tensions using the measured cable shape and the mechanic’s models, and the proposed cable tension assessment method was validated using practical cable point cloud models. Finally, the cable tension assessment method was applied to a specific sea-crossing bridge and compared with the traditional frequency method. The results indicated that the 3D laser scanning cable tension assessment method, considering point cloud density, could quickly and accurately identify cable tensions, offering greater accuracy, reliability, and efficiency compared to the traditional frequency method.

针对传统电缆张力测量方法在精度、可靠性和效率方面的局限性,本文提出了一种基于三维激光扫描技术、考虑点云密度的电缆张力评估方法。本研究首先采用点云平面投影算法将三维点云模型还原为二维平面,通过考虑点云密度来拟合实际的电缆形状。随后,根据对缆索分段和差分段的受力分析,推导出抛物线缆索力学模型和导管缆索力学模型,以描述缆索拉力与形状之间的关系。应用 Broyden-Fletcher-Goldfarb-Shanno (BFGS) 算法,利用测得的缆索形状和力学模型计算缆索张力,并利用实际缆索点云模型验证了所提出的缆索张力评估方法。最后,将缆索张力评估方法应用于一座特定的跨海大桥,并与传统的频率法进行了比较。结果表明,三维激光扫描缆索张力评估方法考虑了点云密度,能够快速准确地识别缆索张力,与传统的频率法相比,具有更高的准确性、可靠性和效率。

Damage Identification in Large-Scale Bridge Girders Using Output-Only Modal Flexibility–Based Deflections and Span-Similar Virtual Beam Models 使用基于输出模态柔性的挠度和跨度相似的虚拟梁模型识别大型桥梁梁的损伤

Damage identification (DI) methods using changes in static and modal flexibility (MF)–based deflections are effective tools to assess the damage in beam-like structures due to the explicit relationships between deflection change and stiffness reduction caused by damage. However, current methods developed for statically determinate beams require the calculation of mathematical scalar functions which do not exist in statically indeterminate beams and limit their application mainly to single-span bridges and cantilever structures. This paper presents an enhanced deflection-based damage identification (DBDI) method that can be applied to both statically determinate and indeterminate beams, including multispan girder bridges. The proposed method utilises the deflections obtained either from static tests or proportional defections extracted from output-only vibration tests. Specifically, general mathematical relationships between deflection change and relative deflection change with respect to the damage characteristics are established. From these, additional damage-locating criteria are proposed to help distinguish undamaged spans from the damaged ones and to identify the damage location within the damaged span. Notably, a span-similar virtual beam (SSVB) model concept is introduced to quantify the damage and make this task straightforward without the need to calculate complicated mathematical formulae. This model only requires information of the beam span length, which can be conveniently and accurately obtained from a real structure. The robustness of the method is tested through a series of case studies from a numerical two-span beam to a benchmark real slab-on-girder bridge as well as a complex large-scale box girder bridge (BGB). The results of these studies, including the minimal verification errors within five percent observed in the real bridge scenario, demonstrate that the proposed method is robust and can serve as a practical tool for structural health monitoring (SHM) of important highway bridges.

基于静态和模态柔度(MF)挠度变化的损伤识别(DI)方法是评估类梁结构损伤的有效工具,因为损伤导致的挠度变化和刚度降低之间存在明确的关系。然而,目前针对静定梁开发的方法需要计算数学标量函数,而这些函数在静不定梁中并不存在,这就限制了这些方法主要在单跨桥梁和悬臂结构中的应用。本文提出了一种增强的基于挠度的损伤识别(DBDI)方法,可同时应用于定常梁和不定常梁,包括多跨梁桥。该方法利用从静力试验中获得的挠度或从纯输出振动试验中提取的比例缺陷。具体来说,建立了挠度变化和相对挠度变化与损伤特征之间的一般数学关系。在此基础上,提出了更多的损坏定位标准,以帮助区分未损坏的跨度和损坏的跨度,并确定损坏跨度内的损坏位置。值得注意的是,引入了跨度相似虚拟梁(SSVB)模型概念来量化损伤,使这项任务变得简单明了,无需计算复杂的数学公式。该模型只需要梁跨度的信息,而这些信息可以从实际结构中方便、准确地获得。该方法的稳健性通过一系列案例研究进行了测试,从数值双跨梁到基准实际梁板桥以及复杂的大型箱梁桥(BGB)。这些研究的结果,包括在实际桥梁场景中观察到的 5% 以内的最小验证误差,证明了所提出的方法是稳健的,可以作为重要公路桥梁结构健康监测 (SHM) 的实用工具。

However, current methods developed for statically determinate beams require the calculation of mathematical scalar functions which do not exist in statically indeterminate beams and limit their application mainly to single-span bridges and cantilever structures. This paper presents an enhanced deflection-based damage identification (DBDI) method that can be applied to both statically determinate and indeterminate beams, including multispan girder bridges. The proposed method utilises the deflections obtained either from static tests or proportional defections extracted from output-only vibration tests. Specifically, general mathematical relationships between deflection change and relative deflection change with respect to the damage characteristics are established. From these, additional damage-locating criteria are proposed to help distinguish undamaged spans from the damaged ones and to identify the damage location within the damaged span. Notably, a span-similar virtual beam (SSVB) model concept is introduced to quantify the damage and make this task straightforward without the need to calculate complicated mathematical formulae. This model only requires information of the beam span length, which can be conveniently and accurately obtained from a real structure.

Existing dam displacement statistical methods simulate the thermal effects using simple harmonic functions ignoring the effects of ice periods, extreme heat, and seasonal weather. Moreover, existing data-driven methods usually utilize a separate modeling strategy, inevitably ignoring the spatiotemporal correlation of multiple displacement points in dams, resulting in poor predictive performance. To overcome these shortcomings, this study proposes a novel machine learning (ML)—aided multiple-point dam displacement predictive model considering the temperature hysteresis effect. Firstly, an improved hydraulic-Air_temperture_Time (HTairT) statistical monitoring model is developed using the measured air temperature lagging monitoring data. On this basis, the multitask Gaussian process regression (multipoint GPR) algorithm with an improved kernel function to construct a multipoint deformation prediction model for ultrahigh arch dams. Then, the improved meta-heuristic physics-driven Frost algorithm is utilized to determine the optimal parameters of the multipoint GPR model. A high arch dam with a height of 305 m is used as the case study, and five displacement monitoring points are used for validation. Five advanced ML-based algorithms are used to comparatively evaluate and verify the performance of the proposed method in terms of forecast accuracy and interpretability. The HTairT statistical model can better simulate the hysteresis effect of temperature on dam deformation. Moreover, the Frost-optimized dam multipoint displacement prediction model with the RQ kernel functions outperforms the other comparison methods in terms of R2, mean absolute error (MAE), and root mean squared error (RMSE) evaluation indicators. This indicates the proposed method can mine the spatiotemporal correlation among multiple monitoring points of ultrahigh arch dams, further improving the overall deformation prediction and uncertainty estimation.

现有的大坝位移统计方法使用简单的谐函数模拟热效应,忽略了冰期、极端高温和季节性天气的影响。此外,现有的数据驱动方法通常采用单独的建模策略,不可避免地忽略了大坝多个位移点的时空相关性,导致预测效果不佳。为了克服这些缺陷,本研究提出了一种考虑温度滞后效应的新型机器学习(ML)辅助多点大坝位移预测模型。首先,利用测得的空气温度滞后监测数据,建立了改进的水力-空气-孔径-时间(HTairT)统计监测模型。在此基础上,利用改进核函数的多任务高斯过程回归(多点 GPR)算法,构建了超高拱坝的多点变形预测模型。然后,利用改进的元启发式物理驱动弗罗斯特算法确定多点 GPR 模型的最佳参数。以高度为 305 米的高拱坝为例,使用五个位移监测点进行验证。采用五种先进的基于 ML 的算法,从预测精度和可解释性方面对所提方法的性能进行了比较评估和验证。HTairT 统计模型能更好地模拟温度对大坝变形的滞后效应。此外,采用 RQ 核函数的 Frost 优化大坝多点位移预测模型在 R2、平均绝对误差(MAE)和均方根误差(RMSE)等评价指标上均优于其他对比方法。这表明所提出的方法可以挖掘超高拱坝多个监测点之间的时空相关性,进一步提高整体变形预测和不确定性估计的能力。

A Graph-Based Methodology for Optimal Design of Inerter-Based Passive Vibration Absorbers With Minimum Complexity 基于图的方法,以最小复杂度优化设计插入式无源减震器

Passive vibration absorbers (PVAs) play a crucial role in mitigating excessive vibrations in engineering structures. Traditional PVA design typically begins with proposing a beneficial topological layout, incorporating stiffness, damping, and inertance elements, followed by optimal sizing of each element to minimise specific response of dynamically excited structures. An alternative approach involves first designing the impedance function of a PVA and then identifying a passive mechanical layout that replicates this impedance using network synthesis techniques. However, both methods struggle to identify the most efficient PVA layout using the minimum number of elements (referred to as “complexity”) for a given vibration suppression problem. To this end, this study introduces a graph-based methodology for designing optimal configurations (i.e., layout + sizing) of two-terminal spring-damper-inerter PVAs that achieve specified performance goals with minimum complexity. In this approach, a PVA is represented as a weighted coloured multigraph, enabling the application of a novel graph-based enumeration technique to generate the full set of potential layouts from any given number of mechanical elements. This enumeration is followed by a performance assessment of all layouts to pinpoint the optimal absorber configuration for the given problem. The methodology’s automation capability and versatility make it suitable for various civil and mechanical engineering applications. The effectiveness of the proposed methodology is demonstrated through two case studies: a vibration absorber design for a wind-excited tall building and a suspension design for a road vehicle. In both cases, the proposed methodology successfully identifies innovative PVA layouts that surpass traditional designs with minimum additional elements.

被动减震器(PVA)在减轻工程结构的过度振动方面发挥着至关重要的作用。传统的 PVA 设计通常从提出有益的拓扑布局开始,包括刚度、阻尼和惰性元件,然后优化每个元件的尺寸,以尽量减少动态激励结构的特定响应。另一种方法是首先设计 PVA 的阻抗功能,然后利用网络合成技术确定可复制该阻抗的无源机械布局。然而,这两种方法都难以针对给定的振动抑制问题,使用最少的元件数(称为 "复杂性")确定最有效的 PVA 布局。为此,本研究引入了一种基于图形的方法,用于设计双端子弹簧-阻尼-插入式 PVA 的最佳配置(即布局 + 大小),以最小的复杂度实现指定的性能目标。在这种方法中,PVA 被表示为一个加权彩色多图,从而能够应用一种新颖的基于图的枚举技术,从任何给定数量的机械元件中生成全套潜在布局。在枚举之后,对所有布局进行性能评估,以确定给定问题的最佳吸收器配置。该方法的自动化能力和多功能性使其适用于各种土木和机械工程应用。我们通过两个案例研究证明了所提方法的有效性:一个是风动高层建筑的减震器设计,另一个是公路车辆的悬挂设计。在这两个案例中,所提出的方法都成功地确定了创新的 PVA 布局,以最少的附加元素超越了传统设计。

Bridge information models are essential for bridge inspection, assessment, and management. LiDAR technology, particularly UAV LiDAR, offers a cost-effective means to capture dense and accurate 3D coordinates of a bridge’s surface. However, the structure of large-scale bridges is complex, and existing commercial software still demands substantial manual effort to segment the components when constructing bridge information models for large-scale bridges. This study introduces a novel approach to automatically segment the components of a long-span rail-and-road cable-stayed bridge from the entire point cloud obtained through UAV LiDAR. In this proposed approach, the geometric and topological constraints of various bridge components are thoroughly examined, and a combination of the coarse-to-fine concept and top-down strategy is employed. The key structural elements, including piers, cable towers, wind fairing plate, stay-cable, main truss, railway surfaces, and deck surfaces, are identified and segmented. The proposed methodology achieves an average accuracy of over 96% at the point level validated using datasets acquired by UAV LiDAR.

Arch dam deformation has regional characteristics, and clustering is a common method of regional classification for arch dams. Traditional methods ignore the impact of dynamic changes in temperature and water level. Besides, the noise of deformation data is detrimental to mining potential information. The objective is to devise a dynamic cluster zoning method for arch dams, which considers the changing working conditions under the coupling of water level and temperature in this study. First, the deformation periods are classified by K-means clustering, and the arch dam deformation series are denoised using a sparrow search algorithm-optimized variational mode decomposition combined with wavelet threshold (SSA–VMD–WT) denoising method. The arch dam measuring points for different periods are then clustered. The engineering case study demonstrates that the SSA–VMD–WT denoising method improves the reliability of deformation data. The dynamic cluster zoning method reasonably describes the deformation regularity of the arch dam under different working conditions.

拱坝变形具有区域特征,聚类是拱坝区域划分的常用方法。传统方法忽略了温度和水位动态变化的影响。此外,变形数据的噪声不利于挖掘潜在信息。本研究的目标是设计一种拱坝动态群组分区方法,该方法考虑了水位和温度耦合作用下的工况变化。首先,通过 K-means 聚类对变形期进行分类,并使用麻雀搜索算法优化的变模分解结合小波阈值(SSA-VMD-WT)去噪方法对拱坝变形序列进行去噪。然后对不同时期的拱坝测量点进行聚类。工程案例研究表明,SSA-VMD-WT 去噪方法提高了变形数据的可靠性。动态聚类分区法合理地描述了拱坝在不同工况下的变形规律性。
