WANG Ya-qiong, DENG Min, HU Yan-jie, HU Jin-ping, XIE Yong-li
Abstract: In order to eliminate the influence of fire smoke on people in single highway tunnel with subtended traffic, a fire numerical calculation model was established.The theory of fuzzy control was introduced into the control of fire smoke, and the reciprocating motion of smoke in the area of 200 m between two groups of jet fans in the tunnel was simulated.By changing the wind velocities and directions of jet fans in tunnel, the distribution and influence law of smoke within the control area were studied when smoke diffusion times were 180 and 360 s, and wind velocities were 1.0 and 1.5 m·s-1.Calculation result shows that after jet fans on both sides of fire source are started respectively, the smoke is basically controlled at the positions of 50-80 m on both sides of fire source, and its motion belongs to small amplitude motion when the start interval of jet fans is 30 s and wind velocity is 1.0 m·s-1.When the interval is 60 s and the speed is 1.5 m·s-1, the smoke is basically controlled at the positions of 80-100 m, and its motion is large amplitude motion.The small amplitude motion is superior to large amplitude motion.More>

LI Yong-le, LI Xin, XIANG Huo-yue, LIAO Hai-li
Abstract: A long-span road-rail steel truss cable-stayed bridge was taken as an engineering example, the aerodynamic coefficients of vehicle and bridge at different states were measured through wind tunnel test with the section models of vehicle and bridge. Wind-vehicle-bridge system was simulated at different wind speeds, vehicle speeds and vehicle load states by using the self-developed software BANSYS. The influences of vehicle position and two trains passing each other on the system were discussed. Computation result shows that wheel load reduction rate exceeds safety limit value when vehicle speed is up to 100 km·h-1 and wind speed is 25 m·s-1. When vehicle speed is up to 120 km·h-1, vehicle vertical acceleration exceeds comfortable limit value. When wind speed is higher, the wheel load reduction rate of vehicle running on windward side is the control factor for wind-vehicle-bridge system. The unloaded vehicle response is larger than overcrowded vehicle. Due to the wind shielding effect for windward side vehicle, transverse accelerations change suddenly at the beginning and ending of the process for two trains passing each other.More>

The calculated elevations of arch rib points are identical with actual measurement values, and all the differences are less than 10 mm. The compressive stresses in main arch show a uniform distribution and are less than 80 MPa. So the construction method of arch rib integral hoisting and arch first and beam late is feasible.More>

Calculation method of critical buckling stress for stiffened plate with closed ribs
ZHANG Qian, DI Jin, ZHOU Xu-hong
Abstract: A calculation method of critical buckling stress for stiffened plate with closed ribs was proposed by using energy method under unidirectional uniform pressure and simply supported on four sides. The influence of torsional rigidity of stiffened ribs was considered, the whole flexural rigidity of mother board and stiffened ribs was calculated according to the centroid of actual section. The stiffened plates with closed trapezoidal ribs in the steel box girder of Suzhou-Nantong Bridge were taken as example, the critical buckling stresses calculated by Timoshenko method, Ichiro Konishi method, shell finite element method and the proposed energy method were compared. Analysis result shows that when the length-width ratio β of stiffened plate is less than 1, the ratio λ values of critical buckling stress to steel yield strength calculated by Timoshenko method and Ichiro Konishi method are greater than the calculation value of energy method. When β is between 1 to 6, the λ values calculated by Timoshenko method and Ichiro Konishi method are less than the calculation value of energy method. When β is between 3 to 6, the calculation value of energy method is most approaching with the result of finite element analysis, their difference is between 9% to 25%. So the proposed energy method is feasible to analyze the elastic stabilities of top and bottom plates for orthotropic steel box girder.More>

Influence of train tail exhaust device on longitudinal force of train
WEI Wei, HU Yang
Abstract: Based on airflow theory and multi-rigid dynamics, a train combined simulation model of longitudinal dynamics and air brake system with train tail exhaust device was established, the transient numerical solution of airflow in the brake system was calculated, the performance of brake system was obtained, and train longitudinal dynamics was simulated synchronously. Simulation result shows that for 20 000 t train, tail exhaust device can reduce the maximum coupler force by 54% at full application brake, which is more obvious. The greater the pressure reduction of brake pipe is, the smaller the coupler force is. Now the fixed pressure reduction in tail exhaust device is 50 kPa, and it should be modified according to the common pressure reduction. The exhaust speed and lag time of tail exhaust device have little effect on train coupler force. When tail exhaust device is replaced with locomotive, the coupler force reduces under full service application, the greater the reduction of service application is, the greater the difference between locomotive and tail exhaust device is. When the reduction is 50 kPa, there is no difference between locomotive and tail exhaust device.More>

WU Hui-chao, WU Ping-bo, CENG Jing, WU Na, DAN Yong-lin
Abstract: In order to consider the elastic vibration of carbody, the vertical coupling vibration model of carbody and equipment was established, the influence of rigid suspension and flexible suspension on the amplitude-frequency characteristic of carbody was studied, in which carbody was modeled as an Euler-Bernoulli beam. The 3D rigid-flexible coupling dynamics model of high-speed EMU was set up based on the modal superposition method and considering carbody elastic vibration and equipment, the influence of equipment's suspension types, partial loads and suspension parameters on carbody vibration was andyzed. The numerical analysis result of Euler-Bernoulli beam model shows that reasonable elastic suspension design based on the principle of dynamic vibration absorber can effectively suppress the elastic vibration of carbody and improve the vertical bend frequency of carbody. The simulation result of 3D rigid-flexible coupling dynamics model shows that the higher the speed is, the more obvious the advantage of elastic suspension is, equipment's lateral partial load affects the lateral riding index of carbody, and the longitudinal partial load mainly affects the vertical riding index. When the flexible suspension frequency of equipment is close to carbody bend frequency, the minimum vibration of carbody occurs. But as the suspension frequency of equipment is less than carbody bend frequency, rising damping can suppress carbody vibration to some extent.More>

ZHOU Yu-cai, CHEN Shi-an, WANG Yong-gang, WANG Dong, HE Ren, LIU Hong-guang
Abstract: In order to reasonably match the pre-charge pressure, maximum working pressure and volume of accumulator for active suspension without external energy supply based on LQG(linear quadratic Gaussian) control, twice standard deviation of ideal control force was proposed as the maximum force output of active suspension to meet 95.4% of work demand, and the parameters of reclaiming energy/active cylinder were taken into account to ascertain the ideal working pressure of accumulator. To make the pressure fluctuation in accumulator less than 5%, the pre-charge pressure and maximum working pressure of accumulator were matched. The energy flow equations between active suspension and accumulator were deduced. Under 2 kW load, the varying volume's dynamic simulation of accumulator was carried out. Computation result shows that the ideal working pressure of accumulator is 23.008 MPa, and the quadratic performance index of the suspension increases 5.21% compared with the ideal state. Accumulator's pre-charge pressure, maximum working pressure and volume are 11.108 MPa, 23.583 MPa and 2.5 L respectively, and the maximum pressure fluctuation in accumulator is 1.03% when the active suspension without external energy supply based on LQG control works steadily. So the demand with low manufacture cost, good suspension performance and high energy reclaiming efficiency for the active suspension is achieved.More>

The objective functions of upper-level model were the minimum total trip time, the shortest bypassing distance and the least conflict point number, and the upper-level model was used to solve the optimized scheme of one-way traffic. The lower-level model was user equilibrium traffic assignment model, and was used to calculate the traffic flow characteristic of section in road network from the upper-level model. The methods such as road section combination and feasible solution judgment were put out to decrease the decision variables and the solution space, the multi-objective genetic algorithm was designed to find the solutions, and example analysis was carried out by the data in Weihai City. Analysis result indicates that after the implementation of one-way traffic, the average ratio of vehicle flow to road capacity decreases from 0.516 1 to 0.487 1, and the variance of average ratio reduces from 0.418 9 to 0.379 1. The average trip time of vehicle decreases from 27.1 min to 25.4 min, while the average circumambulated time caused by one-way traffic is only 0.61 min. It is clear that the proposed model can be used in the scheme design of one-way traffic in a medium-sized city.More>

The minimum passenger delays of all airlines involved in slot switching were taken as objective functions, the Pareto improved solution was taken as constraint condition, and the slot switching model between two airlines was established by using cooperative game theory. The model was decomposed into slot assignment model and slot combination model. By using slot assignment model, the optimal assignment scheme and objective function value under determined slot condition were obtained. By using slot combination model, the optimal slot allocation schemes of two airlines were obtained. Computation result shows that without slot switching, the total passenger delays of airlines 1 and 2 are 238 955, 145 170 min respectively. After switching six slots between two airlines, the total passenger delays of airlines 1 and 2 are 232 945, 142 130 min respectively, and reduce by 2.5% and 2.1% respectively. When flight information is complete, slot switching can make airlines get optimal Pareto improved solutions. When flight information is imcomplete, airlines can obtain better slot switching schemes by using bargaining method.More>

GUO Ying-shi, MA Yong, FU Rui, MENG Ni, YUAN Wei
Abstract: In real vehicle driving test, the eye movement parameters and gazing behavior characteristics of 20 drivers were tested by using EyeLink Ⅱ eye movement tracking device on urban road and highway respectively. The participant drivers were divided into experienced driver group and novice driver group. By decompositing the traffic scene videos in the actual driving process frame by frame, and the real fixation targets of the drivers were determined by combining the eye movement data of drivers. The characteristics of fixation area and fixation target for experienced drivers and novice drivers were compared, the influences of driving experiences on the gazing behavior characteristics for two groups were studied, and the reason induced the difference between the two groups was analyzed. Research result indicates that driving experience has significant influence on gazing behavior characteristic. When driving on urban road, experienced drivers pay 18% more attention to near objects, and 4.7 times more attention to in-vehicle rear view mirror than novice drivers. On highway, the fixation frequency percentage on distant area for novice drivers is only 41% of experienced drivers, and the percentage on in-vehicle area is 2.1 times than experienced drivers. The average fixation frequency of drivers on right side area is about 2.5 times than on left side area, while it is 4 times for experienced drivers and 1.5 times for novice drivers respectively. Both the strategy and effectiveness of visual information processing for novice drivers are poorer than experienced drivers.More>

Abstract: A real-time pedestrian detecting and warning system(PDWS) based on the features of pedestrian side was proposed to solve the problem of pedestrian protection in serious traffic accidents. The system consisted of two parts, detecting module and warning module. The feature extraction and detection pedestrian were completed by using side pedestrian sample dataset in detecting module, Haar and HOG features together with AdaBoost and SVM classifiers were applied to complete the feature extraction and detection. Window-dividing method and operator context scanning(OCS) method were used to improve the detecting efficiency, and a result with both high detection rate and low false alarm rate was obtained. The velocity and angular velocity of automobile together with the distance of detected pedestrian were merged in warning module, so the system could judge the collision risk for the pedestrian in the front. The system and the algorithms were tested toward the pedestrian crossing street with a complex urban envirnment in real vehicle. Test result shows that for the images with 704 Pixel×576 Pixel, the frame rate is about 13-18 frame·s-1, the detecting rate is above 85%, the false detecting rate is below 1%, and the warning response time is less than 1 s. The result meets the requirements of on-board active safety system both in accuracy and real-time use.More>

PU Yun, HU Lu, JIANG Yang-sheng, ZHU Juan-xiu, PENG Bo
Abstract: An optimization model of variable speed-limit control with the object of the least accident rate and the limitations of cost and speed was set up, in which the number of variable message signs and corresponding variable limit speeds were determined. The distances between variable message signs were computed by using the traffic wave model, and the optimization model was verified by using the simulation software Vissim. For different traffic flows, variable speed-limit control and static speed-limit control were simulated on the expressway with two-lanes and six toll windows in single direction. Analysis result shows that when 4 variable message signs with setting separation distances of 1 293, 2 695 and 4 056 m apart are installed before the queuing square of expressway mainline toll station, the minimum relative error between simulation result and calculated values of traffic wave model is 3.9%, and the maximum is 9.5%. Compared with static speed-limit control, passing vehicle number in variable speed-limit control rises by 51.82%, average travel time and queue length decrease by 15.81% and 18.98% respectively, which proves that the model is reasonable.More>
