Durability design of prestressed concrete structures

Based on the durability characteristics of prestressed concrete structures,the durability limit states of carbonation and chloride ion attack are defined, respectively.Durability predicting models on the basis of reliability mathematics and stochastic processes areconstructed, and the pure theoretical formulae of failure probability of prestressed concretestructures are analyzed. In addition, a simple durability design method for carbonation ofstructures is put forward. According to the analysis, the durability of prestressed concretestructures is superior to that of traditional structures. The research also indicates that theconcrete cover prescribed in the current code (GB 50010-2002) is not adequate. The rational coverthickness should notbe less than 35 or 45 mm according to carbonation or chloride ion attack,respectively.

Removal of Turbidity and COD from a Synthetic Water Sample by Coagulation

The main objective of this research was to study the removal of turbidity and COD （chemical oxygen demand） from a synthetic water sample. The water sample was treated chemically by coagulation. Two inorganic coagulants were used, ferric chloride and the double salt potassium-aluminium sulphate. The optimum coagulant dosage and working pH were examined. The results for ferric chloride as coagulant showed that the maximum removal efficiency （%） of COD was achieved at pH 6 with a dosage of 100 mg-L-1 and the maximum removal efficiency （%） of turbidity at pH 5 with a dosage of 500 mg.L-1. For double salt, as coagulant, the maximum removal efficiencies （%） of COD and turbidity were achieved at pH 6 with a dosage of 3,500 mg.L-1. An extensive comparison with results from previous studies was also described in this research.

Effects of Temperature and Strain Rate on Dynamic Properties of Concrete

To study the dynamic properties of the concrete subjected to impulsive loading, stress-time curves of concrete in different velocities were measured using split Hopkinson pressure bar (SHPB).Effects of temperature and strain rate on the dynamic yield strength and constitutive relation of the con-crete were analyzed. The dynamic mechanical properties of the reinforced concrete are subjected to high strain rates when it is at a relatively low temperature. But with temperature increasing, the temperature softening effect makes the strength of the concrete weaken and the impact toughness of the concrete is saliently relative to strain rate effect. So, strain rate effect, strain hardening and temperature softening work together on the dynamic mechanical capability of concrete and the relation between them is relatively complex.

The removal rate of the COD and NH3-N can reach 88.60% and 98.00% under the initial concentration of COD and NH3-N were 2053.35 mg/L and l 123. 76 mg/L separately.

Evaluation of Mixing Efficiency in Coagulation-Flocculation Process in Wastewater Treatment

Fluid flow and mixing phenomenon have a significant impact on coagulation and flocculation processes. Particles dissipating the turbulent kinetic energy increase the efficiency of collision, grow in size and incorporate phosphate from the wastewater Only certain flocks can be separated depending on their stability, size, density, etc.. According to the literature the velocity gradient of the flow （G-value） is the main design parameter of the flocculators, but there is a need to take into account at least the flocks age, too. In this paper, it presents a novel approach to determine the efficiency of flocculators using local mean age theory, residence time distribution and dimensional analysis. Calculations were performed for two constructions of cascade reactors---one with small baffles and one without these; hydraulical performance and the achievable conversion were compared. As a result, the flocculator with small baffles proved to be more efficient than the traditional construction.

Practical elasto-plastic damage model for dynamic loading and nonlinear analysis of Koyna concrete dam

The elasto-plastic damage model for concrete under static loading,previously proposed,was extended to account for the concrete strain-rate through viscous regularization of the evolution of the damage variables.In order to describe the energy dissipation by the motion of the structure under dynamic loading,a damping model which only includes stiffness damp stress was proposed and incorporated into the proposed rate dependent model to consider the energy dissipation at the material scale.The proposed model was developed in ABAQUS via UMAT and was verified by the simulations of concrete specimens under both tension and compression uniaxial loading at different strain rates.The nonlinear analysis of Koyna concrete dam under earthquake motions indicates that adding stiffness damp into the constitutive model can significantly enhance the calculation efficiency of the dynamic implicit analysis for greatly improving the numerical stability of the model.Considering strain rate effect in the model can affect the displacement reflection of this structure for slightly enhancing the displacement of the top,and can improve the calculation efficiency for greatly reducing the cost time.

Methodology for estimating probability of dynamical system's failure for concrete gravity dam

Methodology for the reliability analysis of hydraulic gravity dam is the key technology in current hydropower construction.Reliability analysis for the dynamical dam safety should be divided into two phases:failure mode identification and the calculation of the failure probability.Both of them are studied based on the mathematical statistics and structure reliability theory considering two kinds of uncertainty characters(earthquake variability and material randomness).Firstly,failure mode identification method is established based on the dynamical limit state system and verified through example of Koyna Dam so that the statistical law of progressive failure process in dam body are revealed; Secondly,for the calculation of the failure probability,mathematical model and formula are established according to the characteristics of gravity dam,which include three levels,that is element failure,path failure and system failure.A case study is presented to show the practical application of theoretical method and results of these methods.

Nonlinear finite-element-based structural system failure probability analysis methodology for gravity dams considering correlated failure modes

The structural system failure probability(SFP) is a valuable tool for evaluating the global safety level of concrete gravity dams.Traditional methods for estimating the failure probabilities are based on defined mathematical descriptions,namely,limit state functions of failure modes.Several problems are to be solved in the use of traditional methods for gravity dams.One is how to define the limit state function really reflecting the mechanical mechanism of the failure mode;another is how to understand the relationship among failure modes and enable the probability of the whole structure to be determined.Performing SFP analysis for a gravity dam system is a challenging task.This work proposes a novel nonlinear finite-element-based SFP analysis method for gravity dams.Firstly,reasonable nonlinear constitutive modes for dam concrete,concrete/rock interface and rock foundation are respectively introduced according to corresponding mechanical mechanisms.Meanwhile the response surface(RS) method is used to model limit state functions of main failure modes through the Monte Carlo(MC) simulation results of the dam-interface-foundation interaction finite element(FE) analysis.Secondly,a numerical SFP method is studied to compute the probabilities of several failure modes efficiently by simple matrix integration operations.Then,the nonlinear FE-based SFP analysis methodology for gravity dams considering correlated failure modes with the additional sensitivity analysis is proposed.Finally,a comprehensive computational platform for interfacing the proposed method with the open source FE code Code Aster is developed via a freely available MATLAB software tool(FERUM).This methodology is demonstrated by a case study of an existing gravity dam analysis,in which the dominant failure modes are identified,and the corresponding performance functions are established.Then,the dam failure probability of the structural system is obtained by the proposed method considering the correlation relationship of main failure modes on the basis of the mechanical mechanism analysis with the MC-FE simulations.
