Description

Ultra-large range fiber grating displacement sensor and measuring method
Technical Field
The disclosure relates to the related technical field of photoelectron measuring devices, in particular to a super-large-range fiber grating displacement sensor and a measuring method.
Background
The statements in this section merely provide background information related to the present disclosure and may not necessarily constitute prior art.
The landslide refers to the action and phenomenon that a certain part of rock and soil on a mountain slope moves integrally to the lower part of the slope along a certain soft structural surface or structural belt by generating shearing displacement under the action of gravity including the gravity of the rock and soil and the dynamic and static pressure of underground water. The continuous scouring of surface water bodies such as earthquakes, rainfall and snow melting, scouring and soaking of surface water, rivers and the like to slope toe; unreasonable human engineering activities such as digging slope toe, loading on the upper part of the slope body, blasting, storing and draining water in a reservoir, mining and the like can induce landslide, and the landslide can be induced by the actions such as tsunami, storm surge, freeze thawing and the like. Some landslides occur at a time slightly later than the time of induction of the contributing factor, so long-term continuous monitoring is the best method of prevention. The soft soil foundation is defined as a soft soil layer with low strength and high compression amount, and most of the soft soil layer contains certain organic substances. Because the soft soil has low strength and large sinking amount, great harm is often brought to road engineering or large-scale building engineering. In the health detection of large building structures, the structures are easy to generate large deformation under the load action. Both of these situations require long term continuous monitoring.

Example 2
The embodiment provides a method for measuring an ultra-large range fiber grating displacement sensor based on embodiment 1, which includes the following steps:
s1 calibrating wavelength lambda of temperature compensation fiber gratingWWavelength lambda of stress fiber gratingB
S2, acquiring the measured wavelength variation of the stress fiber grating 7 and the temperature compensation grating 8 in real time;
s3, calculating the temperature variation according to the wavelength variation of the temperature compensation grating 8;
s4, calculating the displacement S to be measured according to the temperature variation and the wavelength variation of the stress fiber grating 7.
The displacement can be calculated more simply and conveniently based on the device structure of the embodiment, and rapid measurement can be realized.
Optionally, in step 4, according to the temperature variation and the wavelength variation of the stress fiber grating 7, a calculation formula for calculating the displacement S to be measured may be:
Δλ=KS·KF·K·S·λB(1-Pe)+λB(α+ζ)ΔT (1-10)
wherein, KS、KF、KAre all constant terms. KsIs the ratio of the circumferences of the small wheel disc and the large wheel disc, KFThe elastic coefficient of the tension spring 3, KThe strain sensitivity coefficient of the strain ring 4 is α, zeta is the thermal expansion coefficient of FBG material, DeltaT is the temperature variation, LambdaBThe bragg wavelength of the fiber bragg grating 7; pe=neff 2[P2-μ(P1+P2)]2, the effective elastic-optical coefficient of the material of the fiber Bragg grating 7 is shown, wherein P1And P2Is the elasto-optic coefficient of the FBG material; mu is the Poisson's ratio, n, of the material of the fiber Bragg grating 7effTo activateThe effective refractive index at which light propagates within the optical fiber.
In this embodiment, a fiber bragg grating is specifically adopted, and the principle of measuring strain by the fiber bragg grating is as follows: fiber bragg gratings (FBGs for short) are optical sensors that are inscribed in the center of a standard, single-mode optical fiber in a spatially varying manner using intense ultraviolet laser light. Short wavelength ultraviolet photons have sufficient energy to break the highly stable silica binder, destroy the structure of the fiber and slightly increase its refractive index. Interference between two successive laser beams or between the fiber and its mask produces strong spatial periodic variations in the uv light, which results in a corresponding periodic variation in the refractive index of the fiber. The grating formed in the region of the fiber where this change occurs will become a wavelength selective mirror image: light travels down the fiber and reflects at each slight change, but these reflections produce destructive interference at most wavelengths and continue along the fiber. However, within a particular narrow band of wavelengths, useful interference can occur that can travel back down the fiber.
Bragg wavelength lambdaBIt can be calculated by:
λB=2neffΛ (1-1)
in the formula: n iseffEffective refractive index for laser propagation in the fiber, Λ the period of the Bragg gratingBIs Λ and neffAs a function of (c).
λ is the temperature change Δ T of the environment when the fiber Bragg grating FBG is not affected by the external force fieldBDrift occurs, and the relationship between the amount of drift and the temperature change can be written as:
ΔλB=λB(α+ζ)ΔT (1-2)
wherein α is the thermal expansion coefficient of the FBG material, ζ is the thermo-optic coefficient of the FBG material, and Δ T is the temperature variation.
When the ambient temperature is constant, the FBG is subjected to the action of an external force field, lambdaBDrift occurs, and the drift amount is:
Δλ=λB(1-Pe)Δ (1-3)
in the formula: delta is the stress variation; pe=neff 2[P2-μ(P1+P2)][ 2 ] represents the effective elasto-optic coefficient of the FBG material, where P1And P2Is the elasto-optic coefficient of the FBG material; μ is the poisson ratio of the FBG material.
λ when strain and temperature act on the FBG at the same timeBDrift occurs, and the drift amount is:
Δλ=λB(1-Pe)Δ+λB(α+ζ)ΔT (1-4)
based on the device structure of embodiment 1, during this embodiment actual measurement, big rim plate radius is R, and the radius of little rim plate is R, can obtain the ratio K of the circumference of little rim plate and big rim plateSComprises the following steps:
Figure BDA0002465517220000111
setting the displacement of the point to be measured relative to the sensor as S, the winding amount of the second pull rope 2 can be obtained, that is, the elongation X of the tension spring 3 is:
X=S·KS(1-6)
since the forces are opposite, when the tension applied to the tension spring is X, the variation Δ F of the applied force applied to the stress ring 4 can be determined as follows:
ΔF=KF·X (1-7)
wherein, KFThe elastic coefficient of the tension spring 3.
When the stress ring is subjected to an acting force Δ F, the stress variation Δ of the stress fiber grating on the stress ring 4 is:
Δ=K·ΔF (1-8)
wherein, KIs the strain sensitivity coefficient of the strain ring 4.
The relation between the wavelength variation delta lambda of the stress fiber grating and the displacement S to be measured can be obtained by combining the formulas (1-2), (1-3), (1-4), (1-5), (1-6), (1-7) and (1-8):
Δλ=KS·KF·K·S·λB(1-Pe)+λB(α+ζ)ΔT (1-10)
wherein, KS、KF、KAre all constant terms. KSIs the ratio of the circumferences of the small wheel disc and the large wheel disc, KFThe elastic coefficient of the tension spring 3, KThe strain sensitivity coefficient of the strain ring 4 is α, zeta is the thermal expansion coefficient of FBG material, DeltaT is the temperature variation, LambdaBThe bragg wavelength of the fiber bragg grating 7; pe=neff 2[P2-μ(P1+P2)]2, the effective elastic-optical coefficient of the material of the fiber Bragg grating 7 is shown, wherein P1And P2Is the elasto-optic coefficient of the FBG material; mu is the Poisson's ratio, n, of the material of the fiber Bragg grating 7effIs the effective index of refraction for the laser light to propagate within the fiber.
