山区单悬臂廊桥结构抖振响应及等效风荷载

Buffeting Response and Equivalent Wind Load of Single Cantilever Corridor Bridge in Mountainous Areas

为研究山区风环境下悬挑式人行桥梁抖振响应及风荷载,以某单悬臂观景廊桥为背景,通过风洞试验对结构的静力三分力系数以及不同风参数下的抖振响应进行了测量,并将结构横桥向最大等效风荷载规范计算值与试验值进行比较.结果表明:山体地形对结构三分力系数及抖振响应影响较大,二者最大值均未出现在常规风向角;结构抖振响应随风速的增大而增大,受小幅风攻角的影响较小;横向抖振响应受一定程度紊流度变化的影响不敏感,但竖向及扭转响应整体随紊流度的增加呈明显增大趋势,在紊流度增大约40%的情况下二者均增大15%左右;竖向抖振响应随紊流积分尺度的增大(增幅约20%)而增大,增幅在9%左右,但积分尺度对横向抖振响应几乎无影响,对扭转响应的影响随风攻角的不同有较大差异,随着积分尺度的增大,3°攻角下扭转响应增幅约为8%,0°攻角其受积分尺度的变化影响较小;相比横桥向最大等效风荷载试验值,利用桥梁规范计算的结果偏于保守,静阵风系数的取值有待修正.

In order to study the buffeting response and the wind loading of a cantilevered pedestrian bridge in windy mountainous,a corridor bridge model was put in a wind tunnel to obtain its aerostatic force coefficients and buffeting responses. The maximum equivalent wind load in the transverse direction was calculated according to the bridges structural code and compared to the experimental results. The complex mountainous terrain has a significant influence on the structural aerostatic force coefficients and the buffeting responses,although neither of their maximums arises due to the general wind yaw. The structural buffeting responses increase with higher wind speeds, while are affected little by the wind attack angles in a small range. The lateral buffeting response is neither sensitive to turbulence intensity nor the turbulence integral scale. The vertical and torsional responses show an uptrend with increasing turbulence intensity, and both increase by around 15% when the turbulence intensity increases by around 40%. The vertical responses increase by about 9% if the turbulence integral scale increases by about 20%,while the lateral responses are affected little by a change in integral scale. In spite of the small influence of the turbulence integral scales on the lateral responses,the torsional responses vary greatly at different wind attack angles. At an attack angle of 3°, the torsional responses increase by around 8% with the increased integral scale, but they are influenced little by the change in integral scale at a 0° attack angle. Compared with the lateral wind loading found in the wind tunnel,the maximum equivalent calculated from the bridges structural code seems too conservative, and hence the code ’s static gust factor should be further investigated.
