However, the influences of splitter plates on the VIV and aerostatic performances are more complicated due to aerodynamic interference between highway and railway decks. To study the effects of splitter plates, wind tunnel experiments for measuring VIV and aerostatic forces of twin decks under two opposite flow directions were conducted, while the surrounding flow and wind pressure of static twin decks with and without splitter plates are numerically simulated. The results showed that the incoming flow direction affects the VIV response and aerostatic coefficients. The highway deck has poor vertical and torsional VIV, and the VIV region and amplitude are different under different directions. While the railway deck only has vertical VIV when located upstream. The splitter plates can impede the process of vortex generation, shedding and impinging at the gap between twin deck, and significantly reducing the surface fluctuating pressure coefficient, thus effectively suppressing the VIV of twin decks. While, the splitter plates hurt the upstream deck regarding static wind stability and have little effect on the downstream deck. The splitter plates of appropriate width are recommended to improve VIV performances in twin parallel bridges.展开更多

文摘A deep-sea mining riser is a crucial component of the system used to lift seafloor mineral resources to the vessel.It is prone to damage and failure because of harsh environmental conditions and internal fluid erosion.Furthermore,damage can impact the response characteristics of the riser,but varying environmental loadings easily mask it.Thus,distin-guishing between riser damage and environmental effects poses a considerable challenge.To address this issue,a cantilevered model is created for a deep-sea mining riser via the concentrated mass method,and a time-domain analytical strategy is developed.The vortex-induced vibration(VIV)response characteristics of the riser are initially examined,considering various damage conditions and flow velocities.The study results revealed four primary observations:(a)effective tension can serve as a reliable indicator for identifying damage at lower velocities;(b)there are noticeable differences in displacement between the healthy and damaged risers in the in-line direction rather than the cross-flow direction;(c)frequency characteristics can more effectively distinguish the damage conditions at high flow velocities,with the mean square frequency and frequency variance being more effective than the centroid frequency and root variance frequency;(d)displacement differences are more sensitive to damage occurring near the top and bottom of the riser,while both velocity variations and structural damage can influence displacements,especially in regions between modal nodes.The vibrational behavior and damage indicators are clarified for structural health monitoring of deep-sea mining risers during lifting operations.

文摘Accurate and efficient prediction of the distribution of surface loads on buildings subjected to explosive effects is crucial for rapidly calculating structural dynamic responses,establishing effective protective measures,and designing civil defense engineering solutions.Current state-of-the-art methods face several issues:Experimental research is difficult and costly to implement,theoretical research is limited to simple geometries and lacks precision,and direct simulations require substantial computational resources.To address these challenges,this paper presents a data-driven method for predicting blast loads on building surfaces.This approach increases both the accuracy and computational efficiency of load predictions when the geometry of the building changes while the explosive yield remains constant,significantly improving its applicability in complex scenarios.This study introduces an innovative encoder-decoder graph neural network model named BlastGraphNet,which uses a message-passing mechanism to predict the overpressure and impulse load distributions on buildings with conventional and complex geometries during explosive events.The model also facilitates related downstream applications,such as damage mode identification and rapid assessment of virtual city explosions.The calculation results indicate that the prediction error of the model for conventional building tests is less than 2%,and its inference speed is 3-4 orders of magnitude faster than that of state-of-the-art numerical methods.In extreme test cases involving buildings with complex geometries and building clusters,the method achieved high accuracy and excellent generalizability.The strong adaptability and generalizability of BlastGraphNet confirm that this novel method enables precise real-time prediction of blast loads and provides a new paradigm for damage assessment in protective engineering.

文摘To address the problems of low accuracy by the CONWEP model and poor efficiency by the Coupled Eulerian-Lagrangian(CEL)method in predicting close-range air blast loads of cylindrical charges,a neural network-based simulation(NNS)method with higher accuracy and better efficiency was proposed.The NNS method consisted of three main steps.First,the parameters of blast loads,including the peak pressures and impulses of cylindrical charges with different aspect ratios(L/D)at different stand-off distances and incident angles were obtained by two-dimensional numerical simulations.Subsequently,incident shape factors of cylindrical charges with arbitrary aspect ratios were predicted by a neural network.Finally,reflected shape factors were derived and implemented into the subroutine of the ABAQUS code to modify the CONWEP model,including modifications of impulse and overpressure.The reliability of the proposed NNS method was verified by related experimental results.Remarkable accuracy improvement was acquired by the proposed NNS method compared with the unmodified CONWEP model.Moreover,huge efficiency superiority was obtained by the proposed NNS method compared with the CEL method.The proposed NNS method showed good accuracy when the scaled distance was greater than 0.2 m/kg^(1/3).It should be noted that there is no need to generate a new dataset again since the blast loads satisfy the similarity law,and the proposed NNS method can be directly used to simulate the blast loads generated by different cylindrical charges.The proposed NNS method with high efficiency and accuracy can be used as an effective method to analyze the dynamic response of structures under blast loads,and it has significant application prospects in designing protective structures.

文摘The position deviation of the underwater manipulator generated by vortex-induced vibration(VIV)in the shear flow increases relative to that in the uniform flow.Thus,this study established an experimental platform to investigate the vibration characteristics of the underwater manipulator under shear flow.The vibration response along the manipulator was obtained and compared with that in the uniform flow.Results indicated that the velocity,test height,and flow field were the main factors affecting the VIV of the underwater manipulator.With the increase in the reduced velocity(U_(r)),the dimensionless amplitudes increased rapidly in the in-line(IL)direction with a maximum of 0.13D.The vibration responses in the cross-flow(CF)and IL directions were concentrated at positions 2,3 and positions 1,2,with peak values of 0.46 and 0.54 mm under U_(r)=1.54,respectively.In addition,the vibration frequency increased with the reduction of velocity.The dimensionless dominant frequency in the CF and IL directions varied from 0.39-0.80 and 0.35-0.64,respectively.Moreover,the ratio of the CF and IL directions was close to 1 at a lower U_(r).The standard deviation of displacement initially increased and then decreased as the height of the test location increased.The single peak value of the standard deviation showed that VIV presented a single mode.Compared with the uniform flow,the maximum and average values of VIV displacement increased by 104%and 110%under the shear flow,respectively.

文摘In rock engineering,the cyclic shear characteristics of rough joints under dynamic disturbances are still insufficiently studied.This study conducted cyclic shear experiments on rough joints under dynamic normal loads to assess the impact of shear frequency(f_(h))and shear displacement amplitude(u_(d))on the frictional properties of the joint.The results reveal that within a single shearing cycle,the normal displacement negatively correlates with the dynamic normal force.As the shear cycle number increases,the joint surface undergoes progressive wear,resulting in an exponential decrease in the peak normal displacement.In the cyclic shearing procedure,the forward peak values of shear force and friction coefficient display larger fluctuations at either lower or higher shear frequencies.However,under moderate shear frequency conditions,the changes in the shear strength of the joint surface are smaller,and the degree of degradation post-shearing is relatively limited.As the shear displacement amplitude increases,the range of normal deformation within the joint widens.Furthermore,after shearing,the corresponding joint roughness coefficient trend shows a gradual decrease with an increasing shear displacement amplitude,while varying with the shearing frequency in a pattern that initially rises and then falls,with a turning point at 0.05 Hz.The findings of this research contribute to a profound comprehension of the cyclic frictional properties of rock joints under dynamic disturbances.

文摘Traditional Computational Fluid Dynamics(CFD)simulations are computationally expensive when applied to complex fluid–structure interaction problems and often struggle to capture the essential flow features governing vortex-induced vibrations(VIV)of floating structures.To overcome these limitations,this study develops a hybrid framework that integrates high-fidelity CFD modeling with deep learning techniques to enhance the accuracy and efficiency of VIV response prediction.First,an unstructured finite-volume fluid–structure coupling model is established to generate high-resolution flow field data and extract multi-component time-series feature tensors.These tensors serve as inputs to a Squeeze-and-Excitation Convolutional Neural Network(SE-CNN),which models the nonlinear coupling between flow disturbances and structural responses.The SE-CNN architecture incorporates an attention-based weighting mechanism through an embedded Squeeze-and-Excitation module,dynamically optimizing channel feature importance and improving sensitivity to critical flow characteristics.During training,multidimensional inputs,including pressure,velocity gradient,and displacement sequences,are used to capture the full complexity of fluid–structure interactions.Results demonstrate that the proposed method achieves a maximum amplitude prediction error of only 2.9%and a main frequency deviation below 0.03 Hz,outperforming conventional CNN models by reducing amplitude prediction error from 3.2%to 1.9%.The approach is validated using a representative semi-submersible platform,confirming its robustness across varying damping conditions and flow velocities.

文摘Imbalanced loads in freight railway vehicles pose significant risks to vehicle running safety as well as track integrity,increasing the likelihood of derailments and increasing track wear rate.This study presents a robust machine learning-based methodology designed to detect and classify transverse imbalances in freight vehicles using dynamic rail responses.The proposed approach employs wayside monitoring systems with accelerometers and strain gauges,integrating advanced feature extraction methods,including principal component analysis,log-mel spectrograms,and multi-feature-based techniques.The methodology enhances detection accuracy by normalizing features to eliminate environmental and operational variations and employing data fusion for sensitive index creation.It is capable of distinguishing between different severity levels of imbalanced loads across various wagon types.By simulating scenarios with typical European freight wagons,the study demonstrates the effectiveness of the approach,offering a valuable tool for railway infrastructure managers to mitigate risks associated with imbalanced loads.This research contributes to the field by providing a scalable,non-invasive solution for real-time monitoring and safety enhancement in freight rail operations.

文摘Deepwater drilling riser is the key equipment connecting the subsea wellhead and floating drilling platform.Due to complex marine environment,vortex-induced vibration(ViV)will be generated on riser,which will induce fatigue failure and even cause unpredictable drilling accidents.Therefore,it is important to study the ViV characteristics of deepwater drilling riser and reveal the main controlling factors for ensuring the safe and efficient operation of deepwater drilling engineering.In this paper,the ViV of deepwater drilling riser is numerically simulated in time domain based on the discrete vortex method(DvM).A hydrodynamic analysis model and governing equation of VIV is proposed with considering the effect of riser motion using DVM and slice method,where the governing equation is solved by Runge-Kutta method.Model validation is performed,which verified the correctness and accuracy of the mechanical model and the solution method.On this basis,the influence of the number of control points,current velocity,riser outer diameter,shear flow and top tension on the ViV characteristics of deepwater drilling risers are discussed in detail.The results show that with the increase of current velocity,the vibration amplitude of deepwater drilling riser decreases obviously,while the vibration frequency increases gradually.However,if the outer diameter of riser increases,the vibration amplitude increases,while the vibration frequency decreases gradually.The top tension also has great influence on the VIV of riser.When the top tension is 1.25 G,the VIV is suppressed to a certain extent.This study has guiding significance for optimal design and engineering control of deepwater drilling riser.

文摘Current fatigue damage analysis of various components(e.g.aircraft parts)focuses on effects of High-Cycle-Fatigue(HCF)loads while overlooking effects of Very-High-Cycle-Fatigue(VHCF)loads,thereby introducing a substantial bias.The crux of decreasing this bias lies in how to reasonably consider the threshold effect and nonlinear effect of VHCF loads'fatigue damage evolution.This problem is addressed in this paper from the perspective of Residual Fatigue Quality(RFQ,represent residual S-N^(*)curve and residual fatigue limitσ_(-1)^(*)).Fatigue tests were conducted on AA2024-T4 under various constant/variable-amplitude loads to reveal the evolution characteristics of RFQ and measure the equivalent fatigue damage of VHCF loads block loaded with various number of pre-loading HCF loads.Corresponding mechanisms were analysed in view of evolution of extrusions/intrusions along persistent slip bands.Theoretical analysis was conducted to reveal the relationship between RFQ and fatigue damage of VHCF loads block.Based on the above results,an isodamage curve-based fatigue damage analysis method was proposed,where bilinear-isodamage curves(consist of S-N^(*)curves intersecting at a point and corresponding_(σ-1)^(*))were adopted to consider the RFQ degeneration and its effect.This method reduces analysis bias to 1/3 of previous methods for typical variable-amplitude loads in HCF and HCF-VHCF regime.

文摘Through-silicon via(TSV)is an important technique in three-dimension integration.The mechanical performance of TSV-Cu is critical to the electrical performance and signal transmission.In this work,the deformation of single-crystalline TSV-Cu during annealing process was studied using molecular dynamics method.The protrusion morphology and protrusion height of Cu column were revealed.The protrusion height curves can be divided into four stages:slow increase,fast increase,fast decrease,and saturation.During the deformation process,the main deformation mode is temporary amorphous region followed by residual dislocations.The influences of annealing temperatures,heating rates,and column sizes on protrusion height were studied.Results show that the residual protrusion height increases with increasing annealing temperatures and decreasing heating rates.The residual protrusion height increases with increasing column sizes in terms of column diameter and length.This work provides new insights into understanding the mechanical performance of nano-TSV-Cu.

文摘Installing the splitter plates is a passive aerodynamic solution for eliminating vortex-induced vibration (VIV). However, the influences of splitter plates on the VIV and aerostatic performances are more complicated due to aerodynamic interference between highway and railway decks. To study the effects of splitter plates, wind tunnel experiments for measuring VIV and aerostatic forces of twin decks under two opposite flow directions were conducted, while the surrounding flow and wind pressure of static twin decks with and without splitter plates are numerically simulated. The results showed that the incoming flow direction affects the VIV response and aerostatic coefficients. The highway deck has poor vertical and torsional VIV, and the VIV region and amplitude are different under different directions. While the railway deck only has vertical VIV when located upstream. The splitter plates can impede the process of vortex generation, shedding and impinging at the gap between twin deck, and significantly reducing the surface fluctuating pressure coefficient, thus effectively suppressing the VIV of twin decks. While, the splitter plates hurt the upstream deck regarding static wind stability and have little effect on the downstream deck. The splitter plates of appropriate width are recommended to improve VIV performances in twin parallel bridges.
文摘In order to more accurately calculate the fatigue damage and fatigue life of steel-concrete composite beam under standard vehicle load,the steel beam components of a large-span steel-concrete composite beam suspension bridge were taken as the research object.Based on the S-N curve and linear fatigue damage theory,a standard segment model was established.Accordingly,the welding position of the secondary longitudinal beam was identified as the focus fatigue point,and the stress time course calculation was done for the point.The results showed that when the vehicle mass increases from 50 t to 100 t,the amount of fatigue damage will increase by more than 5 times in the same period of time,and the increase in the vehicle mass will reduce the fatigue life of the bridge structure.The fatigue damage of bridge structures increases with the increase of vehicle speed.The increase rate of fatigue damage is greater at low speeds,and the increase rate of fatigue damage slows down at high speeds.

文摘Vortex-induced vibration of hydrofoils is concerned with structural safety and noise level in hydraulic machinery and marine engineering.The research on vibration characteristics under different operating conditions is significant.In this study,numerical simulations are conducted to investigate the vortex-induced vibration responses of an elastically suspended hydrofoil with blunt trailing edge in pitch direction.The work studies the effects of four parameters,namely the structural natural frequency,mass ratio,initial attack angle,and Reynolds number on vibration characteristics,with special emphasis on frequency lock-in.Results indicate that as the structural natural frequency changes,the vibration amplitude may increase substantially within a certain frequency range,in which the vortex shedding frequency locks into the structural natural frequency,and frequency lock-in occurs.In addition,with increasing the mass ratio,the frequency range of lock-in becomes narrower,and both the upper and lower thresholds decrease.As the initial attack angle increases from 0◦to 6◦,the lock-in range gets reduced.Over the three Reynolds numbers(6×10^(5),9×10^(5),and 12×10^(5)),the lock-in range remains virtually unchanged.Moreover,for a certain structural natural frequency,modifying the mass ratio,initial attack angle,and Reynolds number could effectively suppress the vibration amplitude.
