TECHNICAL FIELD

The present disclosure relates to the technical field of offshore engineering, in particular to a method for extracting near-field incident waves of a fixed offshore engineering structure.


BACKGROUND

As an important structural form in the process of offshore resource development and utilization, fixed offshore engineering structures have been widely used in the field of ocean engineering due to their simple structure, fast construction and relatively low cost. With the increase of the fixed offshore engineering structures that have been built, how to ensure their safe and stable operation during service has received more and more attention from the industry. In order to realize real-time health assessment of the fixed offshore engineering structures, it is necessary to estimate real-time loads acting on the structures by using field-measured data. As an important part of environmental loads acting on the offshore engineering structures, accurate estimation of wave loads is very important. The calculation accuracy of the wave loads mainly depends on the accurate measurement of incident waves acting on the structures. Therefore, how to obtain the incident waves acting on the fixed offshore engineering structures and provide more accurate environmental input conditions for their safe operation and maintenance has great engineering significance for their safe operation.


Wave measurement methods commonly used in the field of offshore engineering mainly include the following two methods: one is to arrange wave buoys far away from the structures, which can directly output wave time courses of wave measuring points, and wave information measured by this method can represent general wave characteristics of this sea area. However, in order to avoid collision damage between the offshore engineering structures and the buoys, generally, it is necessary to arrange the wave buoys at certain distances from the structures, so measured results hardly represent near-field incident waves acting on the structures. The other wave measurement method is to directly measure near-field wave time courses of the structures through wave radar fixed on the offshore engineering structures. Although this method can measure the information of near-field waves acting on the structures, due to large scales of the fixed offshore engineering structures such as mono-pile wind turbines and bridge piers, there is a diffraction effect on wave propagation, resulting in the measured waves, being the superposition of incident wave components and diffraction wave components, forming disturbance wave fields, rather than simple incident waves. At present, no effective method to extract the incident wave components acting on the structures from the near-field disturbance wave fields of fixed offshore engineering structures is available. Therefore, how to invent a method for extracting incident waves of a fixed offshore engineering structure based on the near-field disturbance wave fields of the fixed offshore engineering structures is an urgent problem to be solved in the art.


The existing wave measurement method is to directly measure the near-field wave time courses of the structures by the wave radar fixed to the offshore engineering structures, and approximate them as the incident waves acting on the structures for the calculation of the wave loads. Although this method can measure the information of the near-field waves acting on the structures, due to large scales of the fixed offshore engineering structures such as single pile turbines and bridge piers, there is a diffraction effect on wave propagation, resulting in the measured waves being the superposition of incident wave components and diffraction wave components, forming disturbance wave fields, rather than simple incident waves, so this method cannot obtain accurate incident wave information.


Existing methods for separating incident waves from reflected waves in the field of offshore engineering are mainly used for harbor engineering structures, structural forms of the harbor engineering structures are usually linear (system for separating time domains of incident and reflected waves CN201521144459.5; method for obtaining reflection coefficient of floating breakwater CN202210230173.7), however, the fixed offshore engineering structures such as the single pile turbines and the bridge piers are usually cylindrical, so the existing methods cannot achieve the extraction of the near-field incident waves of the fixed offshore engineering structures.


Therefore, a method for extracting near-field incident waves of a fixed offshore engineering structure is provided.


SUMMARY

The present disclosure aims at providing a method for extracting near-field incident waves of a fixed offshore engineering structure to solve the problems in the background.


In order to achieve the above objectives, the present disclosure provides the following technical solution: a method for extracting near-field incident waves of a fixed offshore engineering structure includes the following steps:

    • step 1, calculating a dimensionless wave height parameter and a dimensionless water depth parameter based on measured wave information, and selecting applicable wave theories according to a Meyer's wave classification chart;
    • step 2, decomposing measured wave signals based on a continuous wavelet transformation theory according to classification of the wave theories provided in step 1, to obtain analytic signals of measured waves at one or two wave measuring points;
    • step 3, calculating components occupied by incident waves in disturbance waves based on a first-order diffraction theory and a second-order diffraction theory according to the classification in step 1;
    • step 4, separating the wavelet signal analytic signals in step 2 according to a proportion of the components of the incident waves in step 3 for wavelet inverse transformation, to obtain the near-field incident waves of the fixed offshore engineering structure.


As a preferred implementation of the present disclosure, in step 1:

    • a wave height H, a water depth d and a cycle T are obtained after statistics according to the measured wave information, and the dimensionless wave height parameter α and the dimensionless water depth parameter β are calculated:

Compared with the prior art, the present disclosure has the following beneficial effects:


In the present disclosure, before the incident waves are extracted, the measured waves are classified by referring to the Meyer's wave classification chart according to the dimensionless wave height parameter and the dimensionless water depth parameter, and when the measured waves are applicable to the linear theory, they are separated based on the linear diffraction theory; when the measured waves are suitable for the high-order wave theory, they are separated based on the second-order diffraction theory in order to improve calculation efficiency; and this classification method can provide a basis for selecting diffraction theories during subsequent extraction of the incident waves, not only redundant calculation caused by adopting the high-order theory for linear waves is avoided, but also accuracy reduction caused by adopting the linear theory for high-order waves is avoided, thereby effectively taking calculation efficiency and calculation accuracy into account.


On the basis of the classification of the wave theories, the measured wave signals are decomposed based on the continuous wavelet transformation theory, to obtain the analytical signals of the measured waves, and non-stability of random waves can be effectively considered by time-frequency characteristics of wavelet transformation. When the measured waves are applicable to the linear wave theory, the analytical signal of one wave measuring point is established; when the measured waves are applicable to the high-order wave theory, the analytical signals of two wave measuring points are established in order to improve calculation efficiency; and this method for establishing the analytical signals can effectively control the number of wave measuring points on the premise of ensuring calculation accuracy, thereby avoiding the situation that calculation efficiency is reduced due to redundant data participating in calculation.


The components occupied by the incident wave components in the linear measured waves and the high-order measured waves are provided based on the linear diffraction rule and the second-order diffraction rule respectively, compared with an existing method, the diffraction theories adopted in the present disclosure are more applicable to cylindrical fixed offshore engineering structures such as single pile turbines and bridge piers, especially, the second-order wave surface is adjusted by considering that each component of wavelet transformation corresponds to the same circular frequency in the process of decomposing the high-order measured waves, a method for representing the component occupied by the incident wave components in the analytical signal of the measured wave corresponding to each wavelet scale in the high-order waves is provided, and the first-order wave amplitude and the second-order wave amplitude are inversely deduced through the measured wave data of the two wave measuring points, thereby solving the problem that the wave amplitudes are indecomposable in the process of extracting the high-order incident waves.


The analytical signal of the linear incident wave or the high-order incident wave corresponding to each wavelet scale is obtained by multiplying the analytical signal of the linear measured wave or the high-order measured wave corresponding to each wavelet scale obtained through wavelet transformation by the component occupied by the incident waves, and the time series of the linear or high-order incident waves can be obtained by performing wavelet inverse transformation on this group of analytical signals, thereby achieving the extraction of the near-field incident waves of the fixed offshore engineering structure on time domains.

Applicable wave theories are selected by searching in a Meyer's Wave classification chart, when the measured wave is applicable to a linear theory, separation is performed based on a linear diffraction theory, and it proceeds to steps S3 to S5; and when the measured wave is applicable to a high-order wave theory, separation is performed based on a second-order diffraction theory in order to improve calculation efficiency, and it proceeds to steps S6 to S8.


When the measured wave is applicable to the linear theory, wave information xnd (t) of one wave measuring point A is required according to step S3, a measured wave signal is decomposed based on a continuous wavelet transformation theory, and then an analytical signal of the measured wave can be obtained. A linear measuring wave surface of a near field of the fixed offshore engineering structure is written as superposition of a linear incidence wave surface and a linear diffraction wave surface according to step S4, a component occupied by incident waves in the linear measuring wave surface is calculated thereby, the analytical signal of the incident waves is obtained by multiplying the analytical signal of the measured wave by the component occupied by the incident waves in the linear measuring wave surface according to step S5, and an analytical signal of the linear incident waves can be obtained by wavelet inverse transformation.


When the measured wave is suitable for the linear theory, wave information xna (t) and wave information xnB (t) of two wave measuring points A and B are required according to step S6, an analytical signal of the measured wave can be obtained by decomposing a measured wave signal based on the continuous wavelet transformation theory, the high-order measuring wave surface of the near field of the fixed offshore engineering structure can be regarded as superposition of the linear incident wave surface, the linear diffraction wave surface, the second-order incident wave surface and the second-order diffraction wave surface according to step S7, and the component occupied by the incident waves in the second-order measuring wave surface is calculated thereby. The analytical signal of the incident waves is obtained by multiplying the analytical signal of the measured wave by the component occupied by the incident waves in the high-order measuring wave surface according to step S8, and the time series of the high-order incident waves can be obtained through wavelet inverse transformation.



FIG. 2 shows comparison between an estimated incident wave and a real incident wave. It can be shown from the figure that the wave directly measured at the wave measuring point A greatly differs from the real incident wave, and the incident wave estimated by the technology of the present disclosure is basically consistent with the real incident wave. Therefore, it is shown that the method for extracting the near-field incident waves of the fixed offshore engineering structure provided by the present disclosure has a good application effect and high reliability.


In conclusion, in the present disclosure, the dimensionless wave height parameters and the dimensionless water depth parameters are calculated based on the measured wave information, and the applicable wave theories are selected according to the Meyer's wave classification chart; on this basis, the measured wave signals are decomposed based on the continuous wavelet transformation theory, to obtain the analytic signals of the measured waves at one or two wave measuring points; furthermore, the components occupied by the incident waves in disturbance waves are calculated based on the first-order diffraction theory and the second-order diffraction theory; and finally the wavelet signal time series is separated, wavelet inverse transformation is performed, and the near-field incident waves of the fixed offshore engineering structure are obtained.
