摘要

A new preconditioned modified conjugate gradient algorithm based on improved gradient operator and preconditioned technology is proposed for moving force identification of bridge structure in this paper. First, the moving load identification problem is converted into the problem of solving large-scale linear equations by the time-domain deconvolution technology and modal superposition method. Then the large-scale linear equations problem is transformed into easily solved equivalent problem by preprocessing. Subsequently, it is transformed into an unconstrained linear optimization problem by constructing the corresponding objective function. Finally, the problem is solved by the proposed conjugate gradient method. The innovation of the proposed method lies in two aspects. First, the proposed conjugate gradient method is proved by mathematical theory. Second, before constructing the objective function, the preconditioned technique is utilized to simplify the original problem. A series of numerical simulations are carried out to verify the stability and effectiveness of the proposed approach under 21 kinds of noise levels and 6 different sensor configurations, and its performances are compared with several conjugate gradient methods. The results show that the proposed method can reduce the iteration number, and also ensure the load identification accuracy, which indicates that the proposed method can improve the speed of identification and effectively reduce the cost. Meanwhile, the identification situation of different load components is studied by the frequency spectrum analysis method. It is found that the proposed method is a stable and a reliable identification method for static and low-frequency components, which provides a new idea for dynamic weighing of low-frequency loads on bridges.
