Abstract:

The The surface topography of the scroll sidewall is critical to its lifespan, wear resistance, and reliability. To enable accurate characterization of the machined surface, this study proposes a quantitative analysis method that integrates wavelet transform and multifractal theory. Surface data of the scroll are acquired using a white light interferometer, from which roughness information is extracted via wavelet transform. The Weierstrass-Mandelbrot (W-M) function is then employed to investigate the dependence of surface topography on fractal dimension. The fractal dimension is computed using the differential box-counting method, and local topographic features are further analyzed based on the multifractal spectrum. The results demonstrate that wavelet transform effectively extracts roughness information, while the fractal dimension and multifractal spectrum parameters accurately characterize surface complexity and local uniformity. Compared with conventional roughness parameters, the fractal dimension exhibits lower variability and error, and the multifractal spectrum parameters prove effective in detecting local surface defects. By combining these two fractal parameters, the microscopic surface topography of the scroll can be comprehensively characterized at both global and local scales, providing a theoretical foundation for precise surface quality evaluation.

摘要:

涡旋盘侧壁面形貌与其寿命、耐磨性和可靠性密切相关,为准确表征其加工表面,提出一种结合小波变换与多重分形理论的定量分析方法。首先采用白光干涉仪测量涡旋盘表面数据,并通过小波变换提取粗糙度信息;随后引入 Weierstrass-Mandelbrot (W-M) 函数分析表面形貌随分形维数变化的规律;采用差分盒维数法计算分形维数,基于多重分形谱进一步分析其局部特征。研究结果表明,小波变换能够有效提取粗糙度信息,分形维数和分形谱参数可准确表征其表面复杂性与局部均一性。相比于传统粗糙度,分形维数的离散性和误差更低,分形谱参数可有效识别局部缺陷,两种分形参数结合,能从整体和局部两个维度全面表征涡旋盘微观形貌,为实现其表面质量的精确评估提供了理论支持。
