Crack control optimization of basement concrete structures using the Mask-RCNN and temperature effect analysis.

In order to enhance the mitigation of crack occurrence and propagation within basement concrete structures, this research endeavors to propose an optimization methodology grounded in the Mask Region-based Convolutional Neural Network (Mask-RCNN) and an analysis of temperature effects. Initially, the Mask-RCNN algorithm is employed to perform image segmentation of the basement concrete structure, facilitating the precise identification of crack locations and shapes within the structure. Subsequently, the finite element analysis method is harnessed to simulate the structural stress and deformation in response to temperature variations. An optimization algorithm is introduced to adjust geometric parameters and material properties using insights from the temperature effect analysis. This algorithm aims to minimize stress concentration and deformation within the structure, thus diminishing the incidence and proliferation of cracks. In order to assess the efficacy of the optimization approach, an authentic basement concrete structure is selected for scrutiny, and the structure is monitored in real-time through the installation of strain gauges and monitoring equipment. These instruments track structural stress and deformation under diverse temperature conditions, and the evolution of cracks is meticulously documented. The outcomes demonstrate that by adjusting the structural geometric parameters and material properties, the crack density experiences a notable reduction of 60.22%. Moreover, the average crack length and width witness reductions of 40.24% and 35.43%, respectively, thereby corroborating the efficacy of the optimization method. Furthermore, an assessment of stress concentration and deformation within the structure is conducted. Through the optimization process, the maximum stress concentration in the structure diminishes by 25.22%, while the maximum deformation is curtailed by 30.32%. These results signify a substantial enhancement in structural stability. It is evident that the optimization algorithm exhibits robustness and stability in the context of crack control, consistently delivering favorable outcomes across diverse parameter configurations.
