Numerical simulation of flow field deposition and erosion characteristics around bridge-road transition section

Wind-sand flow generates erosion and deposition around obstacles such as bridges and roadbeds, resulting in sand damage and endangering railway systems in sandy regions. Previous studies have mainly focused on the flow field around roadbeds, overlooking detailed examinations of sand particle erosion and deposition patterns near bridges and roadbeds. This study employs numerical simulations to analyze the influence of varying heights and wind speeds on sand deposition and erosion characteristics at different locations: the bridge-road transition section(side piers), middle piers, and roadbeds. The results show that the side piers, experience greater accumulation than the middle piers. Similarly, the leeward side of the roadbed witnesses more deposition compared to the windward side. Another finding reveals a reduced sand deposition length as the vertical profile, in alignment with the wind direction, moves further from the bridge abutments at the same clearance height. As wind speeds rise, there’s a decline in sand deposition and a marked increase in erosion around the side piers, middle piers and roadbeds. In conclusion, a bridge clearance that’s too low can cause intense sand damage near the side piers, while an extremely high roadbed may lead to extensive surface sand deposition. Hence, railway bridges in areas prone to sandy winds should strike a balance in clearance height. This research provides valuable guidelines for determining the most suitable bridge and roadbed heights in regions affected by wind and sand.

Load Transferring Mechanism on Transition Section of Composite Bucket Foundation for Offshore Wind Turbines

The composite bucket foundation (CBF) is a new kind of foundation which has been applied in the offshore wind industry. A reasonable connection pattern between the tower and the CBF top cover is crucial for load transmissions from the superstructure. Therefore, it is essential to choose an optimum structure type for the transition section. The line type and the arc transition section models were established by ABAQUS, and the internal forces of cross section were extracted along the height direction. Specifically, the force transfer mechanism for different types of the transition sections was investigated comparatively with monotonic as well as composite loadings. The results show that the curved transition structure exhibits the better mechanical characteristics under the monotonic and composite loadings, and the reason can be illustrated that its specific arc-shape structure can effectively convert the tremendous bending moment from the turbine tower into the limited tensile and compressive stresses downwards, without the occurrence of force concentration. © 2017, Tianjin University and Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg.

Modeling and Analysis of Transitional Tube with Constant Sectional Area along Derivative Central Route

Firstly, sample square-circular transition tube along straight central route was modeled on CATIA software. The parameters are as follows： let the tube length is L, and the constant cross section area is S, and S = πR^2 = a2, in which R stands for the circle radius on one end, and a the square side length on the other end; set up the coordinate system with OX axis on the central route in which the origin O is on centroid of the square end and assume the cross section size at x as the square shaped with all four comers filleted in radius r which is proportional to x, that is, the linear slope of r is R/L, thus, both values r and square side length ax can be attained on the constant cross section area assumption. Secondly, some sample polygonal-circular transition tubes along straight, circular and helical central route were implemented similarly. Thirdly, numerical analysis of stress and displacement of these tubes were carried out on MSC/PATRAN software which are important to the distribution of turbulent flow and the layout of these transitional tube structures.

FE Analysis of Longitudinal Dynamic Response of Subgrade in Bridge-Subgrade Transition of Heavy Haul Railway

With the increase of axle load and the train speed, dynamic interaction of train-track system becomes so exacerbated that the deformation and dynamic response of subgrade are more aggravated. The differential settlement will be created in bridge-embankment transition section under such dynamic action, and an adverse effect on the train operation safety can be caused. Meanwhile, differential settlement will produce additional dynamic effect when high-speed trains go through the transition between bridge-embankment. Such dynamic action will aggravate the differential settlement and subgrade damage. This paper applies the methods of field test and finite-element to systematically study the dynamic response characteristics of subgrade in bridge-embankment transition section of heavy haul railway under dynamic load for the first time. This research is focused on the analysis of influence of the different axle load, train speed, filled soil modulus, etc.. At last, the dynamic response rules are systematically summarized.

Fine-grained gravity flow sedimentation and its influence on development of shale oil sweet sections in lacustrine basins in China

The geological conditions and processes of fine-grained gravity flow sedimentation in continental lacustrine basins in China are analyzed to construct the model of fine-grained gravity flow sedimentation in lacustrine basin,reveal the development laws of fine-grained deposits and source-reservoir,and identify the sweet sections of shale oil.The results show that fine-grained gravity flow is one of the important sedimentary processes in deep lake environment,and it can transport fine-grained clasts and organic matter in shallow water to deep lake,forming sweet sections and high-quality source rocks of shale oil.Fine-grained gravity flow deposits in deep waters of lacustrine basins in China are mainly fine-grained high-density flow,fine-grained turbidity flow(including surge-like turbidity flow and fine-grained hyperpycnal flow),fine-grained viscous flow(including fine-grained debris flow and mud flow),and fine-grained transitional flow deposits.The distribution of fine-grained gravity flow deposits in the warm and humid unbalanced lacustrine basins are controlled by lake-level fluctuation,flooding events,and lakebed paleogeomorphology.During the lake-level rise,fine-grained hyperpycnal flow caused by flooding formed fine-grained channel–levee–lobe system in the flat area of the deep lake.During the lake-level fall,the sublacustrine fan system represented by unconfined channel was developed in the flexural slope breaks and sedimentary slopes of depressed lacustrine basins,and in the steep slopes of faulted lacustrine basins;the sublacustrine fan system with confined or unconfined channel was developed on the gentle slopes and in axial direction of faulted lacustrine basins,with fine-grained gravity flow deposits possibly existing in the lower fan.Within the fourth-order sequences,transgression might lead to organic-rich shale and fine-grained hyperpycnal flow deposits,while regression might cause fine-grained high-density flow,surge-like turbidity flow,fine-grained debris flow,mud flow,and fine-grained transitional flow deposits.Since the Permian,in the shale strata of lacustrine basins in China,multiple transgression-regression cycles of fourth-order sequences have formed multiple source-reservoir assemblages.Diverse fine-grained gravity flow sedimentation processes have created sweet sections of thin siltstone consisting of fine-grained high-density flow,fine-grained hyperpycnal flow and surge-like turbidity flow deposits,sweet sections with interbeds of mudstone and siltstone formed by fine-grained transitional flows,and sweet sections of shale containing silty and muddy clasts and with horizontal bedding formed by fine-grained debris flow and mud flow.The model of fine-grained gravity flow sedimentation in lacustrine basin is significant for the scientific evaluation of sweet shale oil reservoir and organic-rich source rock.

Distress Characteristics in Embankment‑Bridge Transition Section of the Qinghai‑Tibet Railway in Permafrost Regions

The Qinghai-Tibet Railway has been operating safely for 16 years in the permafrost zone and the railroad subgrade is generally stable by adopting the cooling roadbed techniques.However,settlement caused by the degradation of subgrade permafrost in the embankment-bridge transition sections(EBTS)is one of the most representative and severe distresses.A feld survey on 440 bridges(including 880 EBTSs)was carried out employing terrestrial laser scanning and ground-penetrating radar for comprehensively assessing all EBTSs in the permafrost zone.The results show that the types of distresses of EBTSs were diferential settlement,upheaval mounds of the protection-cone slopes,subsidence of the protection-cone slopes,surface cracks of the protection cones and longitudinal and transverse dislocation of the wing walls.The occurrence rates of these distresses were 78.93,3.47,11.56,3.36,21.18 and 4.56%,respectively.The most serious problem was diferential settlement,and the average diferential settlement amount(ADSA)was 15.3 cm.Furthermore,the relationships between diferential settlement and 11 infuencing factors were examined.The results indicate that ADSA is greater on the northern side of a bridge than on the southern side and on the sunny slope than on the shady slope.It is also greater in the high-temperature permafrost region than in the low-temperature permafrost region and in the high-ice content area than in the low-ice content area.The EBTSs are more infuenced by ice content than by ground temperature.The ADSA increases when the embankment height increases,the particle size of subgrade soil decreases and the surface vegetation cover decreases.

路堤-桥梁过渡段车辆气动力风洞试验研究

为了探究路堤-桥梁过渡段处车辆的气动力,建立1:50的大比例尺路堤-桥梁过渡段和车辆试验模型,在桥梁和路堤段分别布置两种风屏障,并在车辆模型表面布置多个测压点,以研究不同防风措施下处于不同风向角的路桥过渡段车辆气动力。试验结果表明:与无防风措施相比,布置桥梁风屏障后最不利风向角会从-15°变为0°,此风向下过渡段处车辆的三分力最大;再进一步布置路堤风屏障后最不利风向角不变,但大幅度减小了0°风向角下车辆的侧力系数和力矩系数;布置路堤风屏障能有效减小车辆所受三分力;不同风向角下改变陆地风屏障参数产生的影响不同,针对路堤-桥梁过渡段布置防风措施时,应充分考虑其来流方向,以达到最优效果。

运营期纵连板式无砟轨道端刺结构位移特征

研究目的:Π型端刺锚固体系是纵连板式无砟轨道路桥过渡段限制轨道结构位移的关键部位。本文考虑轨道结构与桥梁及摩擦板、端刺与土体的非线性相互作用关系,建立轨道-桥梁-路基-端刺结构一体化计算模型,研究锚固结构服役状态下的位移特征,分析端刺与路基不同脱空位置对结构位移的影响,提出注浆填补层间脱空的增强方案,并对其可行性进行论证。研究结论:(1)端刺与路基完全脱空后,纵向位移相比脱空前大幅增加且超过了3 mm位移限值,脱空引起的路基对端刺结构摩阻力、锚固力下降会导致端刺产生超量位移;(2)摩擦板区域的脱空对端刺位移影响很小,主端刺区域脱空和完全脱空引起的端刺纵向位移只相差0.11 mm,所以主端刺区域路基脱空是引发结构超量位移的主因;(3)采用注浆方式对脱空区域路基进行加固整治后端刺的纵向位移降低了3.5 mm左右,端刺结构位移恢复到了与正常服役状况相近的程度;(4)本研究成果可为现场Π型端刺结构超量位移整治提供一定的理论依据。

双块式无砟轨道端梁区高温拱曲影响因素及控制技术

针对高速铁路双块式无砟轨道线路路基段两头端梁区附近道床板上拱问题,采用有限元方法,研究不同温度组合、路基段长度及端梁桩土约束刚度对道床板上拱的影响规律。结果表明:道床板的温度变形是引起上拱的主因,但支承层的变形扰动及其与道床板的温度变形组合效应不可忽视;随着路基段长度的增加,上拱幅值增加趋势明显;端梁的桩土约束对上拱的影响较为复杂,在中间某一特定约束刚度时上拱达到峰值,而当约束刚度无论变大或变小,上拱都呈现变小的趋势;断开支承层对控制高温上拱变形效果不显著,断开道床板则效果显著,但需协调考虑对应区段的钢轨受力。
