大型回转窑支承系统的力学行为分析

对操作工况下大型回转窑支承系统的力学行为规律进行理论分析和接触非线性有限元仿真。根据轮带结构和运行特点,解析导出轮带内壁受筒体的压力分布公式,修正了长期以来前人轮带压力公式的不妥之处。基于Ansys及其APDL(Ansys parametric design language)编程,实现对支承系统的多体接触模型在分布压力、摩擦转矩和预紧配合作用下的复杂加载及其边界非线性有限元模拟,获得回转窑支承系统的变形与应力分布规律。结果表明,轮带与托轮之间是循环挤压过程;每回转一周,轮带内外表面的等效应力经历五次脉冲循环,在与托轮接触处的峰值应力达最大。托轮外表面也存在较高接触应力。循环应力集中是使轮带与托轮发生表面疲劳失效的根本原因。过盈配合与支承载荷的双重作用,导致轮孔在与轮轴的配合端面成为托轮强度的最薄弱部位,可解释轮孔开裂或喇叭口失效现象。摩擦转矩使载荷偏置,导致支承系统应力分布非对称,故左右对称模型只适用于停工状态,对操作工况是不准确的。这些认识对回转窑支承系统的设计、检修和窑线调整具有参考价值。

Failure mechanism of full-size concrete filled steel circle and square tubes under uniaxial compression

In this paper, the failure mechanisms of full-size concrete filled steel tubes(CFST) under uniaxial compression were investigated with nonlinear finite element method. Existing experimental results were employed to verify the validity of the finite element models of CFST specimens. Then, the numerical analysis was further conducted to study the mechanical behaviors of full-size CFST columns with circular and square cross sections under uniaxial compression. The simulation results indicate that the distribution of the contact pressure between circular steel tube and core concrete is much more uniform than that between square steel tube and concrete, resulting in much higher confinement and more efficient interaction between steel tube and core concrete in circular CFST columns, as well as ultimate load capacity and ultimate displacement. Extensive parametric analysis was also conducted to examine the effect of various parameters on the uniaxial compression behaviors of circular and square CFST columns.
