METHOD OF AUTOMATIC CONTROL OF CARRYING CAPACITY OF MULTISPAN CONTINUOUS BEAM AND DEVICE INTENDED FOR ITS REALIZATION Russian patent published in 1998 - IPC

FIELD: automatic control of constructions and their prestressed-deformed condition. SUBSTANCE: additional prestressed condition of beam is created by transverse shift of supports relative to its axis. In this case, deformation at points of beam being checked is measured, and supports are shifted. Supports are shifted in two steps. First step is associated with training of neuron network. Second step includes automatic control of continuous beam carrying capacity and continuous interrogation of strain gauge transducers by means of computer with neuroprogram. Control decisions are taken by program of neuron network functioning. This network realizes direct connection between readings of strain gauge transducers and effective control decision and transmits this control decision to drive of actuating mechanisms. EFFECT: enhanced efficiency and reliability of control. 2 cl, 4 dwg
