Nonstationary wind speed data reconstruction based on secondary correction of statistical characteristics

Abstract

Data reconstruction is usually used for lost data recovery and data supplement in structural health monitoring (SHM) system. In this paper, a data reconstruction algorithm is proposed for the entire time series data missing at dispersed and consecutive multiple observation points. Kriging-based sequence interpolation (KSI) is adopted for primary data reconstruction and probability density function (PDF) reconstruction. In terms of dispersed data missing, the reconstructed PDF is of great accuracy, which is used to calculate the exact standard deviation to correct the primary reconstructed data and obtain satisfactory performance. Regarding the consecutive data missing, the first correction is insufficient due to the missing of too much information. In addition, it is found to exist a fuzzy mapping relation between the exact standard deviation and extreme values of wind speed series. Thus, the quantile regression combined with deep neural network is proposed for probability reconstruction of the extreme values. The point estimations are adopted to the secondary correction for the reconstructed data with first correction. The effectiveness and validity of the secondary correction strategy have been testified by structural dynamic response analysis. The extreme value of the displacement response under the reconstructed data with the secondary correction is closer to that under the actual wind data, compared with the reconstructed data with first correction.
