Because of its large deflection and high nonlinearity under wind load, the dynamic performance of the cable net is greatly different from that of the conventional linear structures. The continuous membrane theory is used to construct the nonlinear vibration differential equation of the cable net, and the harmonic balance method is used to solve the analytic formula of the nonlinear frequency. In order to verify the accuracy of the above analytic formula, the results of the formula and the nonlinear FEM time-history method are compared and found to be in good agreement. Furthermore, the nonlinear vibration differential equation and the nonlinear frequency obtained in this paper are the basis for the wind-induced response analysis of a cable net under fluctuating wind load.展开更多

Firstly,the dynamic response of cable net faade under earthquake was investigated with shaking table test. Then the working mechanism of glass panels in coordination with cable net was proposed. Accordingly,a numerical simulation model of glass panel's working in coordination with cable net was built for the dynamic analysis.And then the seismic response was analyzed with this model theoretically. The study indicates that the seismic response of the cable net with glass panels on most occasions is mainly decided by the symmetric modes,and the first vibration mode is dominant. The damping of cable net facade is mainly decided by glass panels. And it is very good for cable net faade to restrain its dynamic response under earthquake.展开更多

In order to verify the accuracy of the above analytic formula, the results of the formula and the nonlinear FEM time-history method are compared and found to be in good agreement. Furthermore, the nonlinear vibration differential equation and the nonlinear frequency obtained in this paper are the basis for the wind-induced response analysis of a cable net under fluctuating wind load.

文摘To investigate the wind⁃induced vibration re⁃sponse characteristics of multispan double⁃layer cable photo⁃voltaic(PV)support structures,wind tunnel tests using an aeroelastic model were carried out to obtain the wind⁃induced vibration response data of a three⁃span four⁃row double⁃layer cable PV support system.The wind⁃induced vibration characteristics with different PV module tilt angles,wind speeds,and wind direction angles were analyzed.The results showed that the double⁃layer cable large⁃span flexible PV support can effectively control the wind⁃induced vibration response and prevent the occur⁃rence of flutter under strong wind conditions.The maxi⁃mum value of the wind⁃induced vibration displacement of the flexible PV support system occurs in the windward first row.The upstream module has a significant shading effect on the downstream module,with a maximum effect of 23%.The most unfavorable wind direction angles of the structure are 0°and 180°.The change of the wind direction angle in the range of 0°to 30°has little effect on the wind vi⁃bration response.The change in the tilt angle of the PV modules has a greater impact on the wind vibration in the downwind direction and a smaller impact in the upwind di⁃rection.Special attention should be paid to the structural wind⁃resistant design of such systems in the upwind side span.

文摘The air gap at the interface inside the cable terminations for high-speed trains and the partial discharge caused by it are two important factors affecting the insulating performance.The development of air gap and partial discharge will eventually lead to breakdown faults.To investigate the evolutionary characteristics of the air gap and partial discharge,the simulation models and samples of cable terminations containing defects are constructed in this paper.By analysing the variation law of the electric field and the multidimensional information of partial discharge,the evolution process of the air gap is divided into four wellcharacterised stages.Especially in the third stage,the partial discharge extinction voltage is 51.41%lower than that of the defect-free samples and even lower than the working voltage.The asymmetry of discharge is the most significant factor.The volume of discharge in the third quadrant is significantly higher than that in the first quadrant.This important feature can be applied to the inspection and evaluation of the insulating state of the cable terminations.The partial discharge characteristics of the air gap revealed in this paper are proposed to provide an important theoretical supplement to the study of interface discharges between heterogeneous dielectrics.

文摘The actively heated fiber-optic(AHFO)technology has emerged as a frontier and hotspot in soil water content measurement,offering advantages such as easy installation,large-scale distributed measurement capability,and resistance to electromagnetic interference.However,current AHFO water content sensors fail to simultaneously achieve high precision,applicability for deep soil,and automated real-time monitoring,thereby limiting their development and application.Therefore,this study introduces a novel actively heated fiber Bragg grating(AH-FBG)cable.Laboratory tests were conducted to assess the heating uniformity of the AH-FBG cable and to establish the temperature characteristic value(T_(t))-soil water content(θ)calibration formula for water content measurement.Subsequently,AH-FBG cables were deployed for in situ soil water content monitoring in a test pit on the Loess Plateau.Through two-year monitoring data verified the accuracy of the AH-FBG cable and elucidated the spatiotemporal distribution of in situ loess water content.Laboratory results demonstrated superior heating uniformity of AHFBG cable,with a T_(t) standard deviation of approximately 0.3℃.In the field,the AH-FBG cable exhibited excellent performance in soil water content measurement,achieving a high accuracy of 0.023 cm^(3)/cm^(3).Further analysis revealed that the θ fluctuation predominantly occurred within a 10 m depth from the soil surface,with an overall upward trend over the two-year monitoring period;the response of shallow θ to precipitation was significant but exhibited increasing hysteresis with depth;frequent precipitation significantly enhanced water infiltration depth.This study provides technical guidance for highprecision,quasi-distributed,automated and real-time water content measurement of deep soil.

文摘The impacts of natural boulders carried by debris flows pose serious risks to the safety and reliability of structures and buildings.Natural boulders can be highly random and unpredictable.Consequently,boulder control during debris flows is crucial but difficult.Herein,an eco-friendly control system featuring anchoring natural boulders(NBs)with(negative Poisson's ratio)NPR anchor cables is proposed to form an NB-NPR baffle.A series of flume experiments are conducted to verify the effect of NB-NPR baffles on controlling debris flow impact.The deployment of NB-NPR baffles substantially influences the kinematic behavior of a debris flow,primarily in the form of changes in the depositional properties and impact intensities.The results show that the NB-NPR baffle matrix successfully controls boulder mobility and exhibits positive feedback on solid particle deposition.The NB-NPR baffle group exhibits a reduction in peak impact force ranging from 29%to 79%compared to that of the control group in the basic experiment.The NPR anchor cables play a significant role in the NB-NPR baffle by demonstrating particular characteristics,including consistent resistance,large deformation,and substantial energy absorption.The NB-NPR baffle innovatively utilizes the natural boulders in a debris flow gully by converting destructive boulders into constructive boulders.Overall,this research serves as a basis for future field experiments and applications.

文摘In the realm of slope monitoring and reinforcement,traditional prestressing anchor cables are extensively used.However,these conventional methods often face limitations when applied to loess slopes,such as potential issues with stress concentration and insufficient adaptability to the unique mechanical properties of loess,which may lead to challenges in ensuring long-term stability and effective reinforcement.Negative Poisson's ratio(NPR)anchor cables with constant resistance have emerged as a promising alternative,which can better match the engineering demands of loess slopes by providing more uniform stress distribution and adaptive deformation characteristics.The NPR cable's ability to maintain a constant resistance during deformation offers a distinct advantage over traditional methods as it can more effectively accommodate the complex and variable conditions of loess slopes.To investigate the anchoring performance of NPR cables in loess slope,the stress characteristics of NPR cable in loess medium were simulated and analysed by ABAQUS finite element software.First,static and general quasi-static analysis methods were used to simulate the NPR cable under static tensile conditions.The consistency of the simulated constant resistance deformation characteristics with experimental results found in the literature was verified.Second,the interaction model between the NPR cable coupled with the loess medium was established.Its constant resistance was calculated to be about 24.08%larger than that of NPR anchor cable while its plastic deformation was reduced by about 37.14%.The compressive stress on the contact surface between NPR cable and loess was concentrated near the free end of the sleeve,which indicated that the loess was prone to severe damage at the free end.The research results reveal the typical shear failure mechanism of NPR cable in loess medium,which provides an important theoretical basis for prevention of landslides and monitoring of loess slopes.

文摘Cabin cables,as critical components of an aircraft's electrical system,significantly impact the operational efficiency and safety of the aircraft.The existing cable segmentation methods in civil aviation cabins are limited,especially in automation,heavily dependent on large amounts of data and resources,lacking the flexibility to adapt to different scenarios.To address these challenges,this paper introduces a novel image segmentation model,CableSAM,specifically designed for automated segmentation of cabin cables.CableSAM improves segmentation efficiency and accuracy using knowledge distillation and employs a context ensemble strategy.It accurately segments cables in various scenarios with minimal input prompts.Comparative experiments on three cable datasets demonstrate that CableSAM surpasses other advanced cable segmentation methods in performance.

文摘The anchoring capacity of the anchor cable is closely related to the bonding length and radial pressure conditions.Through field pull-out tests,theoretical analysis,numerical simulation,and industrial tests,this study clarifies the relationship between radial pressure and bonding length for the ultimate pullout force and reveals the microscopic failure process of the resin-rock interface in the anchoring system.The results show that the ultimate load increases with the increase of bonding length in three different stages:rapid,slow,and uniform growth.The new mechanical model developed considering radial pressure describes the inverse relationship between radial pressure and the plastic zone on the bonding section,and quantifies the reinforcing effect of confining pressure on the anchoring force.During the pull-out process of the anchor cable,the generation of failure cracks is in the order of orifice,bottom,and middle of the hole.Radial pressure can effectively enhance the ultimate pull-out force,alleviate the oscillation increase of pull-out force,and inhibit resin cracking,but will produce an external crushing zone.It also reveals the synergistic effect between bonding length and radial pressure,and successfully carries out industrial tests of anchor cable support,which ensures the stability of the stope roof and provides an important reference for the design of anchor cable support in deep high-stress mines.
