The finite element model of a large-scale prestressing bucket founda- tion for offshore wind turbines is set up and the structural characteristics of the arc transition structure of the founda- tion are analyzed for 40-60 channels(20-30 rows) arranged with prestressing steel strand under the same ultimate load and boundary conditions. The mechanical characteristics of the key parts of the foundation structures are illus- trated by the peak of the principal tensile stress, the peak of the principal compressive stress and the distribution areas where the principal tensile stress is larger than 2.00 MPa. It can be concluded that the maximum principal tensile stress of the arc transition decreases with the increasing number of channels, and the amplitude does not change signifi- cantly; the maximum principal compressive stress increases with the increasing number of channels and the amplitude changes significantly; however, for the distribution areas where the principal tensile stress is larger than 2.00 MPa, with different channel numbers, the phenomenon is not obvious. Furthermore, the principal tensile stress at the top of the foundation beams fluctuantly increases with the increasing number of channels and for the top cover of the bucket, the principal tensile stress decreases with the increasing number of channels.展开更多

Research on the prestressing of the inner ring gear is in the preliminary stage, and the distribution rule of the prestressing and the influence of each parameter on the interference prestressing have not been derived. In this paper, based on the method of calculating the prestressing of the thick cylinder in interference fit, the ring gear is found to be equivalent to a thick cylinder, and the distribution rule of prestressing of the ring gear in the interference fit is inferred. Then, by modeling and analyzing the gearbox body and ring gear in the interference fit using ABAQUS, the distribution rule of prestressing the ring gear in the interference fit is obtained through a numerical simulation. Finally, the prestressing of the ring gear in the interference fit is measured using X-ray di raction, and the distribution rule of prestressing of the ring gear in the interference fit is obtained through analysis. Compared with the distribution rule of prestressing in theory, numerical simulation, and experiment, the theoretical distribution rule of prestressing is amended through a statistical method, and a more accurate formula of prestressing is obtained. Through the calculation of the stress and bending moment in the dangerous section of the ring gear through prestressing, the formula for checking the tooth root flexural fatigue strength in the interference fit prestressing is inferred. This research proposes a tooth root bending strength conditional formula for the inner ring gear of the interference fit, which serves as a guide for the design and production of the actual interference joint inner ring gear.展开更多

To this end, different sinusoidal loads with diverse values of maximum loading level and number of cycles were simulated on wires in which several residual stress profiles had been previously introduced, some of them with a tensile state and others with a compressive state. An analysis was made of the evolution with time of such residual stress laws by comparing them at key instants of loading, that is, at initial instant, at maximum load, at minimum load and at final instant. Numerical results show only a minor influence of fatigue loading on the residual stress profile.展开更多

Therefore, the selection of appropriate technologies in the process of bridge construction is the basis to ensure the quality of the bridge. Prestress technology is one of the important technologies to improve the engineering quality in recent years. With the progress of science, this technology is becoming more and more mature. Although prestressed technology can improve the seismic performance of buildings, reduce the bearing capacity and ensure the safety performance of buildings, there are many problems and important positive significance in the rational use of this technology in bridge construction projects. Therefore, this paper will focus on the application of prestressed technology in bridge construction.展开更多

An analysis was made of the evolution with time of such residual stress laws by comparing them at key instants of loading, that is, at initial instant, at maximum load, at minimum load and at final instant. Numerical results show only a minor influence of fatigue loading on the residual stress profile.
文摘This article presents a study on the structural behavior of transversely prestressed laminated timber slabs,focusing on an innovative approach:vertically misaligned lamellae.This misalignment,achieved by sliding vertically the wooden lamellae rather than aligning them,enhances the slab’s cross-section moment of inertia,thereby improving load-bearing capacity and stiffness.Testing involved two groups of structural size specimens:one with vertically aligned lamellae(control group)and the other with misaligned lamellae(study group).Results showed the study group exhibited 42%superior stiffness and 10%less load capacity compared to the control.Failures typically occurred individually in the lamellae,particularly in those with defects or lower modulus of elasticity,concentrated in the middle third of the slabs’free span where tensile stresses peak.Despite a higher number of failed lamellae,the study group demonstrated promising performance.Analysis of prestressing bar indicated no damage at all in the thread,suggesting potential for reducing bar diameter.These findings offer crucial insights into applying these slabs in timber construction as well as to any kind of construction.
文摘Construction projects are closely related to our lives. Therefore, the selection of appropriate technologies in the process of bridge construction is the basis to ensure the quality of the bridge. Prestress technology is one of the important technologies to improve the engineering quality in recent years. With the progress of science, this technology is becoming more and more mature. Although prestressed technology can improve the seismic performance of buildings, reduce the bearing capacity and ensure the safety performance of buildings, there are many problems and important positive significance in the rational use of this technology in bridge construction projects. Therefore, this paper will focus on the application of prestressed technology in bridge construction.

文摘Main cable displacement-controlled devices(DCDs)are key components for coordinating the vertical deformation of the main cable and main girder in the side span of continuous suspension bridges.To reveal the mechanical action mechanisms of DCD on bridge structures,a three-span continuous suspension bridge was taken as the engineering background in this study.The influence of different forms of DCD on the internal force and displacement of the components in the side span of the bridge and the structural dynamic characteristics were explored through numerical simulations.The results showed that the lack of DCD caused the main cable and main girder to have large vertical displacements.The stresses of other components were redistributed,and the safety factor of the suspenders at the side span was greatly reduced.The setting of DCD improved the vertical stiffness of the structure.The rigid DCD had larger internal forces,but its control effect on the internal forces at the side span was slightly better than that of the flexible DCD.Both forms of DCD effectively coordinated the deformation of the main cable and main girder and the stress distribution of components in the side span area.The choice of DCD form depends on the topographic factors of bridge sites and the design requirements of related components at the side span.

文摘Purpose–The bridge expansion joint(BEJ)is a key device for accommodating spatial displacement at the beam end,and for providing vertical support for running trains passing over the gap between the main bridge and the approach bridge.For long-span railway bridges,it must also be coordinated with rail expansion joint(REJ),which is necessary to accommodate the expansion and contraction of,and reducing longitudinal stress in,the rails.The main aim of this study is to present analysis of recent developments in the research and application of BEJs in high-speed railway(HSR)long-span bridges in China,and to propose a performance-based integral design method for BEJs used with REJs,from both theoretical and engineering perspectives.Design/methodology/approach–The study first presents a summary on the application and maintenance of BEJs in HSR long-span bridges in China representing an overview of their state of development.Results of a survey of typical BEJ faults were analyzed,and field testing was conducted on a railway cable-stayed bridge in order to obtain information on the major mechanical characteristics of its BEJ under train load.Based on the above,a performance-based integral design method for BEJs with maximum expansion range 1600 mm(±800 mm),was proposed,covering all stages from overall conceptual design to consideration of detailed structural design issues.The performance of the novel BEJ design thus derived was then verified via theoretical analysis under different scenarios,full-scale model testing,and field testing and commissioning.Findings–Two major types of BEJs,deck-type and through-type,are used in HSR long-span bridges in China.Typical BEJ faults were found to mainly include skewness of steel sleepers at the bridge gap,abnormally large longitudinal frictional resistance,and flexural deformation of the scissor mechanisms.These faults influence BEJ functioning,and thus adversely affect track quality and train running performance at the beam end.Due to their simple and integral structure,deck-type BEJs with expansion range 1200 mm(±600 mm)or less have been favored as a solution offering improved operational conditions,and have emerged as a standard design.However,when the expansion range exceeds the above-mentioned value,special design work becomes necessary.Therefore,based on engineering practice,a performance-based integral design method for BEJs used with REJs was proposed,taking into account four major categories of performance requirements,i.e.,mechanical characteristics,train running quality,durability and insulation performance.Overall BEJ design must mainly consider component strength and the overall stiffness of BEJ;the latter factor in particular has a decisive influence on train running performance at the beam end.Detailed BEJ structural design must stress minimization of the frictional resistance of its sliding surface.The static and dynamic performance of the newlydesigned BEJ with expansion range 1600 mm have been confirmed to be satisfactory,via numerical simulation,full-scale model testing,and field testing and commissioning.Originality/value–This research provides a broad overview of the status of BEJs with large expansion range in HSR long-span bridges in China,along with novel insights into their design.

文摘As prestressed concrete(PC)structures age,long-termeffects,e.g.,creep,shrinkage,and prestress losses,compromise their structural performance.Strengthening these aged PC beams has become a crucial matter.One effective solution is to use externally bonded fiber-reinforced polymer(FRP)sheets;however,limited research has been done on aged PC beams using the FRP,especially for beams with unbonded prestressing strands(UPC beams).Therefore,this research investigates the flexural strengthening efficacy of external FRP sheets on aged UPC beams with unbonded tendons.Aging minimally affected the failure modes of UPC beams,with nonstrengthened beams showing flexural failure via rebar yielding and concrete crushing,and FRP-strengthened beams failing due to FRP debonding and tensile reinforcement yielding,though tendons in the aged beams did not yield due to prestress losses,unlike the new beams.The U-wrap anchor curbed widespread debonding,leading to tensile reinforcement yielding and FRP rupture.Aging hastened crack growth and stiffness loss,increasing deflections and reducing load resistance,but FRP reinforcement mitigated these effects,enhancing cracking resistance by 14%over the unstrengthened aged beams and 7%over the new beams while boosting ultimate resistance by 9%above the non-strengthened new beams.Compared to the new FRP-strengthened beams,the aged counterparts had lower cracking resistance,stiffness and capacity—showing 20%higher deflections,7–9%lower serviceability loads,7%–17%reduced ultimate strength and 17%less deformability—due to prestress losses and premature FRP debonding.

文摘Understanding the reinforcement effect of the newly developed prestressed reinforcement components(PRCs)(a system composed of prestressed steel bars(PSBs),protective sleeves,lateral pressure plates(LPPs),and anchoring elements)is technically significant for the rational design of prestressed subgrade.A three-dimensional finite element model was established and verified based on a novel static model test and utilized to systematically analyze the influence of prestress levels and reinforcement modes on the reinforcement effect of the subgrade.The results show that the PRCs provide additional confining pressure to the subgrade through the diffusion effect of the prestress,which can therefore effectively improve the service performance of the subgrade.Compared to the unreinforced conventional subgrades,the settlements of prestressreinforced subgrades are reduced.The settlement attenuation rate(Rs)near the LPPs is larger than that at the subgrade center,and increasing the prestress positively contributes to the stability of the subgrade structure.In the multi-row reinforcement mode,the reinforcement effect of PRCs can extend from the reinforced area to the unreinforced area.In addition,as the horizontal distance from the LPPs increases,the additional confining pressure converted by the PSBs and LPPs gradually diminishes when spreading to the core load bearing area of the subgrade,resulting in a decrease in the Rs.Under the singlerow reinforcement mode,PRCs can be strategically arranged according to the local areas where subgrade defects readily occurred or observed,to obtain the desired reinforcement effect.Moreover,excessive prestress should not be applied near the subgrade shoulder line to avoid the shear failure of the subgrade shoulder.PRCs can be flexibly used for preventing and treating various subgrade defects of newly constructed or existing railway lines,achieving targeted and classified prevention,and effectively improving the bearing performance and deformation resistance of the subgrade.The research results are instructive for further elucidating the prestress reinforcement effect of PRCs on railway subgrades.

文摘There are multiple types of risks involved in the service of long-span railway bridges.Classical methods are difficult to provide targeted alarm information according to different situations of load anomalies and structural anomalies.To accurately alarm different risks of long-span railway bridges by structural health monitoring systems,this paper proposes a cross-cooperative alarm method using principal and secondary indicators during high-wind periods.It provides the prior criterion for monitoring systems under special conditions,defining the principal and secondary indicators,alarm levels,and thresholds based on the relationship between dynamic equilibrium equations and multiple linear regression analysis.Analysis of one-year monitoring data from a longspan railway cable-stayed bridge shows that the 10-min average cross-bridge wind speed(excitation indicator)can be selected as the principal indicator,while lateral displacement(response indicator)can serve as the secondary indicator.The threshold levels of the secondary indicator prioritize the safety of bridge operation(mainly aiming at the safety of trains traversing bridges),with values significantly lower than structural safety thresholds.This approach enhances alarm timeliness and effectively distinguishes between load anomalies,structural anomalies,and equipment failures.Consequently,it improves alarm accuracy and provides timely decision support for bridge maintenance,train traversing,and emergency treatment.

文摘Streamlined box girders serve as a prevalent choice for the primary structural elements in large-span suspension bridge designs.With the increase in traffic demands,the design of such girders is evolving towards wider bridge decks and larger aspect ratios(B/D).To obtain more effective and aerodynamic design shapes for streamlined box girders,it is essential to investigate the impact of B/D on their aerodynamic performance.Accordingly,in this study we investigate the buffeting responses of large-span suspension bridges using girders of varying aspect ratios(B/D of 7.5,9.3,and 12.7).First,the aerodynamic coefficients of these girders are estimated using computational fluid dynamics(CFD)simulations.Subsequently,spatial finite element(FE)models of three long-span suspension bridges with different girders(B/D of 7.5,9.3,and 12.7)are established in Ansys software,and the dynamic characteristics of these bridges are obtained.Then,the time-domain buffeting analysis is performed by simulating the fluctuating wind fields acting on the bridge through the spectral representation method.Ultimately,the buffeting responses are computed using Ansys software,and the impact of B/D on these responses is assessed.The results reveal that the root mean square(RMS)values of the main girder’s buffeting displacement are highest at the midspan position and are lowest at the ends of the bridge.A decrease in B/D of the main girder leads to a more severe buffeting response because both the range and the effective value of the displacement increase with the decreasing B/D.Comparing the buffeting displacements in three directions,B/D plays a significant role in the vertical buffeting displacement,moderately impacts the torsional displacement,and has the least effect on the lateral displacement.The findings of this study may help wind resistance analysis and design optimization for bridges.

文摘The stress gradient of surrounding rock and reasonable prestress of support are the keys to ensuring the stability of roadways.The elastic-plastic analytical solution for surrounding rock was derived based on unified strength theory.A model for solving the stress gradient of the surrounding rock with the intermediate principal stress parameter b was established.The correctness and applicability of the solution for the stress gradient in the roadway surrounding rock was verified via multiple methods.Furthermore,the laws of stress,displacement,and the plastic zone of the surrounding rock with different b values and prestresses were revealed.As b increases,the stress gradient in the plastic zone increases,and the displacement and plastic zone radius decrease.As the prestress increases,the peak stress shifts toward the sidewalls,and the stress and stress gradient increments decrease.In addition,the displacement increment and plastic zone increment were proposed to characterize the support effect.The balance point of the plastic zone area appears before that of the displacement zone.The relationship between the stress gradient compensation coefficient and the prestress is obtained.This study provides a research method and idea for determining the reasonable prestress of support in roadways.
文摘The operational and regional conditions to which the prestressed concrete sleeper(PCS)is subjected in a railway track significantly contribute to its performance and durability.Maintaining the health of PCS poses challenges,and one of these issues involves the potential occurrence of longitudinal cracks in reinforcing bars,which can be caused by various constructional,functional,and environmental factors.Longitudinal cracks in PCS compromise the structural performance,resulting in a reduced capacity to withstand the loads exerted by moving vehicles.The current evaluations not only fail to yield a precise parameter for estimating the behavior and response of the PCS,but they also overlook the specific conditions of the PCS,such as prestressing,and only provide limited information regarding existing damage.Balancing the need for accurate evaluation with consideration of costs and resources,and making informed decisions about maintenance and track performance enhancement,has become a multifaceted challenge in ensuring a robust PCS assessment.This research introduces a novel methodology to improve the evaluation of mechanical and geometrical parameters of PCS over their operational lifespan.The objective is to enhance the accuracy of PCS performance estimation by concentrating on detecting longitudinal cracks.The suggested approach seamlessly integrates model updating methods and the finite element(FE)approach to achieve an accurate and timely assessment of PCS conditions.This comprehensive examination scrutinizes the methodology by applying artificial cracks to the PCS.In addition to introducing this assessment approach,a detailed examination is conducted on a laboratory-simulated PCS featuring various combinations of longitudinal cracks measuring 40,80,and 120 cm in length.This systematic and rigorous approach ensures the reliability and robustness of the methodology.Ultimately,the parameters of cross-sectional area,moment of inertia,and modulus of elasticity,which significantly impact the performance of this sleeper,are explored and demonstrated through functional methodologies.The findings suggest that assessing and addressing damage should be conducted through a comprehensive and integrated procedure,taking into account the actual conditions of the PCS.Longitudinal cracks lead to a substantial decrease in the performance of these components in railway tracks.By applying the proposed methods,it is anticipated that the evaluation error for these components will be reduced by approximately 30%compared to visual inspections,particularly in predicting the extent of damage for cracks measuring up to 120 cm.This research has the potential to significantly enhance the evaluation of PCS performance and mitigate the impact of longitudinal cracks on the safety and longevity of ballasted railway tracks in desert areas.

文摘The surrounding rock is prone to large-scale loosening and failure after the excavation of shallow large-span caverns because of the thin overlying strata and large cross-section span.The rational design of bolt support is very important to the safety control of surrounding rock as a common support means.The control mechanism and design method of bolt support for shallow-buried large-span caverns is carried out.The calculation method of bolt prestress and length based on arched failure and collapsed failure mode is established.The influence mechanism of different influencing factors on the bolt prestress and length is clarified.At the same time,the constant resistance energy-absorbing bolt with high strength and high toughness is developed,and the comparative test of mechanical properties is carried out.On this basis,the design method of high prestressed bolt support for shallow-buried large-span caverns is put forward,and the field test is carried out in Qingdao metro station in China.The monitoring results show that the maximum roof settlement is 6.8 mm after the new design method is adopted,and the effective control of the shallow-buried large-span caverns is realized.The research results can provide theoretical and technical support for the safety control of shallow-buried large-span caverns.
