Description

Bridge foundation scouring monitoring system
Technical Field

Background
China's territory has wide expanses, many inland rivers and long coastlines, and a considerable number of extreme flood disasters occur every year. The bridge piers and foundations of a large number of bridge projects crossing water areas are subjected to scouring of flood or ocean currents all year round, and the scouring is an important cause of water damage accidents of the bridge projects. The scouring of the bridge pier and the foundation is that flowing water forms a three-dimensional horseshoe-shaped eddy field around the foundation, and after a hollowing effect is generated on the foundation, the supporting boundary of the bridge foundation is weakened, so that the mechanical characteristics and the bearing capacity of the bridge are influenced, and even the bridge structure is directly collapsed.

Therefore, it is very important to monitor the basic scouring condition of the bridge engineering in real time by adopting an applicable monitoring technology.
The existing bridge foundation scouring monitoring method has the characteristic of inaccurate measured data.

The erosion depth is measured according to the deformation of the strain gauge caused by the erosion of the river bed by the strain gauge in the cantilever rod, but the cantilever rod is easily deformed by the impact of water flow or the impact of other floating objects, at the moment, even if the river bed is not eroded, the sensor still obtains an erosion depth, and the erosion depth of the river bed measured by the sensor is not accurate.

The principle of each module is described in detail below:
in actual use, the bridge foundation scouring monitoring system comprises an ultrasonic monitoring subsystem, a remote monitoring and analyzing subsystem and a danger early warning subsystem.
The ultrasonic monitoring subsystem is composed of an acquisition module 5 and a sending module 9, the remote monitoring analysis subsystem is composed of a receiving storage module and an analysis module 16, and the danger early warning subsystem is composed of a danger identification module 17 and an early warning module 18. The remote monitoring and analyzing subsystem and the danger early warning subsystem are both arranged on the computer 14 and are equivalent to a black box module. The ultrasonic monitoring subsystem is installed on the structure of the actual bridge engineering, and the remote monitoring analysis subsystem and the danger early warning subsystem are both installed in a monitoring room of the remote monitoring center 13.
The acquisition module 5 is a set of ultrasonic distance measuring devices which are arranged at proper positions below the water surface 12 at the positions of the bridge piers 4 or the front wall of the bridge abutment. This ultrasonic ranging device is for including: the ultrasonic transducer comprises a high-frequency nonlinear acoustic detector, a transmitting ultrasonic transducer and a receiving ultrasonic transducer, wherein the transmitting ultrasonic transducer and the receiving ultrasonic transducer are self-transmitting-self-receiving ultrasonic transducers. The working principle of the acquisition module 5 is as follows: and collecting reflected wave information according to reflection and transmission phenomena generated by the ultrasonic waves on interfaces with different acoustic impedances so as to measure the scouring depth. According to p ═ ρ cu, when the sound pressure p is the same, the particle vibration velocity u becomes smaller as ρ c increases; conversely, when ρ c is smaller, u is larger, where ρ c is the acoustic impedance of the medium, denoted by the symbol Z, the acoustic properties of the medium can be directly expressed in terms of acoustic impedance.
The reflection and transmission of ultrasonic waves at the boundary between two different media is affected by the acoustic impedance of the two media. When the ultrasonic waves vertically enter an interface between two media, some energy can directly enter a second medium and is in the same direction as the propagation direction of incident waves to form transmitted waves; another part of the energy is reflected at the interface and becomes a reflected wave in the opposite direction to the incident wave propagation direction. r is the acoustic pressure P of the reflected waverAnd incident wave sound pressure P0The ratio of the two is called the sound pressure reflectance; t is transmitted wave sound pressure PtAnd incident wave sound pressure P0The ratio of the transmission to the transmission is called sound pressure transmission. r and t can be expressed as:
Figure BDA0003147517900000071
wherein Z is1、Z2Respectively, the acoustic impedances of the two media, for characterizing the acoustic properties of the media.
The sound intensity reflectivity R and the sound intensity transmissivity T can well represent the energy relationship between the reflected wave and the transmitted wave. Reflected acoustic intensity I for RrAnd incident wave intensity I0Expressed by the ratio of (A) to (B); transmitted wave sound intensity I for TtAnd incident wave intensity I0The ratio of (d) is expressed as:
Figure BDA0003147517900000081
Figure BDA0003147517900000082
it can be seen that when the acoustic impedance of the interface where the ultrasonic wave is vertically incident is greatly different, the absolute value of r approaches to 1 infinitely, which indicates that the sound pressure is almost totally reflected at the interface; when r is larger than 0, the phases of two sound pressures of the reflected wave and the incident wave are consistent; when r is less than 0, the sound pressure phase of the reflected wave and the incident wave is different by 180 degrees. Therefore, when the ultrasonic distance measuring device developed according to the above principle works, the high frequency nonlinear acoustic detector sends an excitation signal to the transmitting ultrasonic transducer, the ultrasonic transducer converts the excitation signal into an ultrasonic wave for a test object (i.e. a riverbed for placing the bridge foundation 3), the test object reflects the ultrasonic wave to be received by the receiving ultrasonic transducer based on different interface properties, the receiving ultrasonic transducer converts the received ultrasonic wave signal into a voltage signal (the voltage signal contains measurement information compared with the excitation signal and changes in peak value compared with the excitation signal) to be transmitted to the high frequency nonlinear acoustic detector, the high frequency nonlinear acoustic detector records the excitation signal and the propagation time (the ultrasonic distance measuring device contains a timer, the timing is started from the sending of the excitation signal to the end of the timing after the receiving of the voltage signal is stabilized, namely the propagation time), and transmitted to the transmitting module 9 through the sounding pipe 6.
The distance measurement principle is shown in fig. 6, where H in fig. 6 is the distance between the transmitting transducer and the receiving transducer, and the actual distance to be measured is D. D ═ Lcos [ arctan (H/2L) ], 2L ═ vt'.
Wherein, L is the actual distance from the transmitting transducer to the reflecting point, t' is the propagation time, v is the propagation speed of the ultrasonic wave in the water, and the propagation speed is calculated by an acoustic propagation speed calculation formula considering the temperature of the liquid. The temperature sensor is integrated in the transducer and connected with the high-frequency nonlinear acoustic detector, and when a pulse signal is sent out, the pulse signal can take the temperature into consideration to excite the corresponding transducer to generate sound velocity with corresponding magnitude. Because transmitting transducer and receiving transducer formula as an organic whole, H ≈ 0, can get:
D≈Lcos0=L=vt'。
where v is large due to temperature influence, and sound velocity propagation under the ambient temperature condition is considered, this time is expressed as: v 1557-0.00255(74-T')2And T' is the temperature of the medium water (i.e. ambient temperature) in degrees Celsius.
The sending module 9 is located in an equipment box 10 at the position of the cover beam 7, the equipment box 10 is fixed on the cover beam 7 through a group of fixing supports 8, the sending module 9 is connected with an ultrasonic ranging probe in the acquisition module 5 through the sounding pipe 6, and acquired voltage signals are sent out through the wireless communication network 11.
The receiving and storing module is installed in the computer 14, and the storing module receives the data (voltage signal) from the sending module 9 and stores the data in the background of the computer 14, and then sends the data to the analyzing module 16 for screening, processing and analyzing the measured data.
An analysis module 16 is installed in the computer 14, and the function of the module is mainly to process the obtained voltage signal and obtain the scouring depth. The processing procedure adopts a peak value calculation method to calculate the scouring depth, and comprises the following steps:
the voltage (i.e., voltage signal) of the receiving ultrasonic transducer converting the received echo ultrasonic wave into a pulse signal is:
Figure BDA0003147517900000091
wherein, P is incident wave sound pressure; h is the sensitivity of the self-emitting-self-receiving transducer; λ is the wavelength of the ultrasonic wave; v is the excitation signal voltage, t0The moment when the transmitting transducer emits ultrasonic waves; h is the distance between a measuring point and a self-emitting-self-receiving transducer probe; kappa is the wave number; w (h) is a solid angle formed by the surface of an object within h to a probe of the self-emitting-self-receiving transducer, W (h) in the integrand is a discontinuous function, and the expression of the voltage signal can be simplified as follows:
Figure BDA0003147517900000092
wherein E isgIs a single g-th discontinuity signal like a pulse, g being w (h). The voltage signal is composed of a large number of dispersed image pulse vectors.
As shown in fig. 7, the ultrasonic wave forms an acoustic spot (the intersection of the cone and the interface, i.e. the great circle in fig. 7) with the measured interface, and the central image of the acoustic spot has the highest pulse energy and is the main spot region (i.e. the black part in fig. 7). When the ultrasonic waves are incident to the flat interface, the ultrasonic detection distances of all points in the main spot area are nearly the same, so that all echo ultrasonic waves in the main spot area are formed almost at the same time, and the measurement distance result can be obtained by calculating the distance between the ultrasonic waves emitted by the ultrasonic transducer and the echo ultrasonic waves and the phase point through the calculation module.
As shown in FIG. 8, when the ultrasonic wave is incident on the inclined plane, the point E located in the main spot area is the closest point to the probe of the transmitting ultrasonic transducer (because the distance between the point and the vertical line is the shortest), and the arrival time t of the ultrasonic wave is the shortesteAt a minimum, then on the re-slope in the order of the direction E → S → P → F → B at t > teTo various places within the main spot area. Because the interface is a uniform uneven interface, when the ultrasonic wave reaches the main spot area in turn along the emission direction, the like pulses E with uniform generation time intervals are determined according to the propagation property of the acoustic wave in the mediumm(m=e1,e2,e3.., S, P, F), the overlapping of these pulses forms an echo ultrasound wave with a shape similar to a plane, the resulting shape being related to the width and phase difference of each phase pulse (echo ultrasound wave). Points E and B in fig. 8 are farthest from the central axis, are located at the outermost periphery of the main spot area, and the incident wave sound intensity is small. P is the intersection of the central axis and the inclined plane, where the sound pressure Pp is relatively large. However, since the inclination and direction curve (i.e., the curve of the range of the ultrasonic wave reaching the measurement interface region) is elliptical (i.e., the range of the ultrasonic wave measurement is elliptical), the point P is not the intersection of the direction curves contacting the main spot region and the inclined surface, but is a point S close to the point P (as can be seen from fig. 8, the point S is closer to the ultrasonic transducer than the point P). This means that the maximum pressure point of the sound wave is the S point, i.e. P pointS. The ultrasonic wave of the echo is continuously returned to the inclined plane within a period of time, and a series of image pulses E exist in the EP sectione,Ee1,Ee2,……,ES. In the E → F process, as the distance h of the probe increases, the pulse point also approaches the S point. In other words, the incident pressure will continue to increase, so that the resultant image pulse intensity will also continue to increase, i.e. within the ES segment: ee<Ee1<Ee2<......<ES
From the above, the point S is where the sound pressure of the main spot area is the largest, and in the SP segment, the incident wave sound pressure shows a descending trend. However, because the point P is located on the central axis, the drop of the sound pressure of the incident wave is very slow, and the high-frequency component of the sound wave is rapidly enhanced at the point P, so that the trend of the drop of the sound pressure of the SP section is compensated. Therefore, the composite waveform formed by the superposition of the image pulses formed on the slope of E → S → P always maintains the rising trend, and constitutes the rising front edge of the echo.
After point P, in the direction of P → F, the incident wave sound pressure PoWill rapidly decrease and will be as far away from the probe as the pulse is generated (o ═ P, P1,P2… …, F), the reduction in sound pressure and the increasing distance h from the probe cause the amplitude of the image pulses formed in the PF section to decrease rapidly and to increase with decreasing amplitude such that the image pulses are from E in the PF sectionPEffective image pulse E rapidly reduced to minimumF. Therefore, in the PF section: eP>EP1>EP2>......>EF. The trailing edge of the echo ultrasonic wave is at EPAnd the later descending section forms an image pulse and then synthesizes the image pulse to ensure that the original echo ultrasonic wave is converted into descending. The transmitting pulse of the probe is ultrasonic waves with steep front and narrow bottom, but when the detected interface is a slope, the composite is a 'triangle' with wider bottom, as shown in fig. 9, and the shape of the echo ultrasonic wave and the transmitted ultrasonic wave are different. P is the measured point, which is the point where the center line of the ultrasonic transducer probe intersects with the plane of the inclined plane. According to the above-mentioned image pulse theory, in the image pulse EPBefore the occurrence, an image pulse E is formed in the EP segmente,Ee1,Ee2,……,ES,EPThe result of the superposition of the two echoes is that the amplitude of the echo rises all the time, E after PP1,EP2The amplitude of the isopleth pulse is continuously reduced, and the signal intensity of the ultrasonic wave of the synthesized echo is controlled from EPThe peak value of the probe is changed from rising to falling, namely the image pulse peak value at the point P appears at the point E, so when the sound wave is incident on the inclined plane, two same-phase points when the distance from the probe to the point P is calculated can select a transmitting pulse amplitude peak value point and a pulse amplitude peak value point of an echo wave, namely the point EPAs shown in fig. 10.
Based on the algorithm, a corresponding calculation program is programmed, and the calculation program automatically calculates the scouring depth corresponding to the voltage signal at a certain moment and transmits the scouring depth to the danger identification module 17 in real time.
The danger identification module 17 is connected with the computer 14, the danger identification module 17 prestores a bridge structure bearing capacity-scouring depth risk curve, and the risk curve is obtained by calculating the structure according to historical data by using finite element software. Dividing the corresponding bridge state into three intervals according to the risk curve, namely: safety, warning, danger three states. The scouring depth obtained by the analysis module 16 is used for comparing the structural bearing capacity corresponding to the current scouring depth in the risk curve so as to judge the current bridge foundation scouring state.
The early warning software module is connected with the danger identification module 17, and after the danger identification module 17 obtains the bridge foundation scouring state, the early warning software module makes corresponding danger level early warning.
