摘要
To evaluate the coupling pounding-friction effect between bridge girders and retainers and its influence on bridge seismic response, a reinforced concrete （RC） continuous bridge is selected as the research object. Three bridge finite element （FE） models were built using OpenSees, in which the longitudinal and transverse pounding elements, as well as the transverse failure element of bearings were introduced. Based on this, tire seismic response analysis considering the coupling pounding-friction effect was conducted for the continuous bridge subjected to bi-directional ground motions. Furthermore, the influential parameters were analyzed. The analysis results indicate that the coupling pounding-friction effect can alter the internal force distribution of the bridge structure and generate additional torsional force to bridge columns. The friction coefficient and longitudinal pounding gap size are two important factors. The appropriate friction coefficient and longitudinal pounding gap size can significantly reduce seismic response of girders, and effectively transfer part of the girder inertia force from the fixed columns to the sliding columns, which can reduce the seismic demands of the fixed columns and improve the seismic performance of continuous bridge structures.
为了研究连续梁桥主梁与横向挡块之间的碰撞-摩擦耦合效应及其对桥梁结构地震响应的影响,以一座钢筋混凝土连续梁桥为研究对象,基于OpenSees有限元程序建立了3座桥梁有限元模型,其中考虑了纵向、横向的碰撞单元及支座的失效.在此基础上进行了连续梁桥在双向地震激励作用下考虑碰撞-摩擦耦合作用的地震响应分析,并进行了影响参数分析.分析结果表明,碰撞-摩擦耦合作用会改变桥梁结构的内力分布并对桥墩产生额外的扭转力,摩擦系数及纵向碰撞间隙是2个重要因素.合理的摩擦系数及纵向碰撞间隙能够显著降低主梁地震响应,并且有效地将部分作用于固定墩的主梁惯性力转移至滑动墩,从而减小固定墩地震需求并改善连续梁桥结构的抗震性能.
