It can be widely used in many interrelated fields, such as engineering constructions and 3D measurements, owing to its prominent characteristics of the high efficiency and high precision. At present its application is still in the initial state, and it is quite rarely used in China, especially in geotechnical engineering and geological engineering fields.

文摘Morphology of hydraulic fracture surface has significant effects on oil and gas flow,proppant migration and fracture closure,which plays an important role in oil and gas fracturing stimulation.In this paper,we analyzed the fracture surface characteristics induced by supercritical carbon dioxide(SC-CO_(2))and water in open-hole and perforation completion conditions under triaxial stresses.A simple calculation method was proposed to quantitatively analyze the fracture surface area and roughness in macro-level based on three-dimensional(3D)scanning data.In micro-level,scanning electron micrograph(SEM)was used to analyze the features of fracture surface.The results showed that the surface area of the induced fracture increases with perforation angle for both SC-CO_(2)and water fracturing,and the surface area of SC-CO_(2)-induced fracture is 6.49%e58.57%larger than that of water-induced fracture.The fractal dimension and surface roughness of water-induced fractures increase with the increase in perforation angle,while those of SC-CO_(2)-induced fractures decrease with the increasing perforation angle.A considerable number of microcracks and particle peeling pits can be observed on SC-CO_(2)-induced fracture surface while there are more flat particle surfaces in water-induced fracture surface through SEM images,indicating that fractures tend to propagate along the boundary of the particle for SC-CO_(2)fracturing while water-induced fractures prefer to cut through particles.These findings are of great significance for analyzing fracture mechanism and evaluating fracturing stimulation performance.
文摘This paper surveys state-of-the-art image features and descriptors for the task of 3D scan registration based on panoramic reflectance images.As modern terrestrial laser scanners digitize their environment in a spherical way,the sphere has to be projected to a two-dimensional image.To this end,we evaluate the equirectangular,the cylindrical,the Mercator,the rectilinear,the Pannini,the stereographic,and the z-axis projection.We show that the Mercator and the Pannini projection outperform the other projection methods.

文摘The staggered distribution of joints and fissures in space constitutes the weak part of any rock mass.The identification of rock mass structural planes and the extraction of characteristic parameters are the basis of rock-mass integrity evaluation,which is very important for analysis of slope stability.The laser scanning technique can be used to acquire the coordinate information pertaining to each point of the structural plane,but large amount of point cloud data,uneven density distribution,and noise point interference make the identification efficiency and accuracy of different types of structural planes limited by point cloud data analysis technology.A new point cloud identification and segmentation algorithm for rock mass structural surfaces is proposed.Based on the distribution states of the original point cloud in different neighborhoods in space,the point clouds are characterized by multi-dimensional eigenvalues and calculated by the robust randomized Hough transform(RRHT).The normal vector difference and the final eigenvalue are proposed for characteristic distinction,and the identification of rock mass structural surfaces is completed through regional growth,which strengthens the difference expression of point clouds.In addition,nearest Voxel downsampling is also introduced in the RRHT calculation,which further reduces the number of sources of neighborhood noises,thereby improving the accuracy and stability of the calculation.The advantages of the method have been verified by laboratory models.The results showed that the proposed method can better achieve the segmentation and statistics of structural planes with interfaces and sharp boundaries.The method works well in the identification of joints,fissures,and other structural planes on Mangshezhai slope in the Three Gorges Reservoir area,China.It can provide a stable and effective technique for the identification and segmentation of rock mass structural planes,which is beneficial in engineering practice.

文摘Hole repair processing is an important part of point cloud data processing in airborne 3-dimensional(3D)laser scanning technology.Due to the fragmentation and irregularity of the surface morphology,when applying the 3D laser scanning technology to mountain mapping,the conventional mathematical cloud-based point cloud hole repair method is not ideal in practical applications.In order to solve this problem,we propose to repair the valley and ridge line first,and then repair the point cloud hole.The main technical steps of the method include the following points:First,the valley and ridge feature lines are extracted by the GIS slope analysis method;Then,the valley and ridge line missing from the hole are repaired by the mathematical interpolation method,and the repaired results are edited and inserted to the original point cloud;Finally,the traditional repair method is used to repair the point cloud hole whose valley line and ridge line have been repaired.Three experiments were designed and implemented in the east bank of the Xiaobaini River to test the performance of the proposed method.The results showed that compared with the direct point cloud hole repair method in Geomagic Studio software,the average repair accuracy of the proposed method,in the 16 m buffer zone of valley line and ridge line,is increased from 56.31 cm to 31.49 cm.The repair performance is significantly improved.

文摘Real-time monitoring of wellbore stability during drilling is crucial for the early detection of instability and timely interventions.The cause and type of wellbore instability can be identified by analyzing the dropped blocks brought to the surface by the drilling fluid,enabling preventive measures to be taken.In this study,an image capture system with fully automated sorting and 3D scanning was developed to obtain the complete 3D point cloud data of dropping blocks.The raw data obtained were preprocessed using methods such as format conversion,down sampling,coordinate transformation,statistical filtering,and clustering.Feature extraction algorithms,including the principal component analysis bounding box method,triangular meshing method,triaxial projection method,local curvature method,and model segmentation projection method,were employed,which resulted in the extraction of 32 feature parameters from the point cloud data.An optimal machine learning algorithm was developed by training it with 10 machine learning algorithms and the block data collected in the field.The XGBoost algorithm was then used to optimize the feature parameters and improve the classification model.An intelligent,fully automated feature parameter extraction and classification system was developed and applied to classify the types of falling blocks in 12 sets of drilling field and laboratory experiments and to identify the causes of wellbore instability.An average accuracy of 93.9%was achieved.This system can thus enable the timely diagnosis and implementation of preventive and control measures for wellbore instability in the field.

文摘The low accuracy of wire arc additive manufacturing(WAAM)is one of the main factors limiting its development,and is detrimental to the mechanical properties of WAAM structures.This study primarily investigated the effects of wire-feeding directions and positions of the molten pool on the quality and accuracy of unsupported WAAM.First,the three-dimensional(3D)morphology and volume of unsupported rods manufactured with different wirefeeding directions were quantitatively evaluated using a 3D scanning method.The effects of the wire-feeding direction and arc length on the volume and standard deviation of the unsupported rods are then discussed in detail.Finally,the influence of the wire-feeding direction on the quality and accuracy of unsupported WAAM is discussed and revealed by combining the temperature gradients,surface tension,and contact angles.The research revealed that feeding a wire into the high-temperature zone of the molten pool could reduce material spatter and achieve higher precision.The volume of the sample fed into the high-temperature zone was 120%of that fed into the low-temperature zone.This reduced not only the material waste but also the standard deviation of the diameter of the same group of samples.This research is of great significance and value for high-quality unsupported WAAM.
