ZHANG Xiao, ZHAO Hong-duo, ZHAO Dui-jia, SUN Li-jun

Abstract: In order to analyze the impact of moisture gradient on mechanical properties of cement concrete pavement, the calculation formulas of moisture warping stress for nonhomogeneous infinite pavement slabs subjected to free-rein constrain, axial deformation constraint, bending deformation constraint, bending-axial deformation constraint were derived by using the basic analysis method of elasticity mechanics.The formula of equivalent temperature gradient based on the moisture warping stress was derived by using the equivalent principle of moment.Based on continuously reinforced concrete pavement(CRCP), the stresses and crack widths of concrete slab and steel stresses were computed by using the finite element method based on cement stabilized base, stable aggregate base, asphalt concrete base, asphalt stabilized base, limestone soil base and natural soil base.Research result shows that the magnitude of moisture warping stress depends on the relative humidity distribution; the surface stress at slab middle increaseswith the increase of base stiffness, when the stiffness of base increases from 0.08MPa·mm^-1 to6.28 MPa·mm^-1, the surface stress increases from 4.1 MPa to 6.3 MPa; the type of base hardly has influence on the stress of steel; the horizontal displacement of crack end gradually increases from 0.0 mm to 2.9 mm from slab bottom to surface.More>

LI Bo, ZHANG Zheng-wei, KANG Hong-wei, LI Liang-ying, WANG Feng

Abstract: The noises of expressway concrete pavements and asphalt pavements were tested by the on-board sound intensity(OBSI)method.The test samples were conducted by using statistics products and service solution software(SPSS).In tunnel, A-weighted sound levels and 1/3 octave bands of noise characteristics were studied for concrete pavements with different skidding resistance textures i.e.transverse grooves, longitudinal grooves, combined transverse-longitudinal grooves, and exposed aggregate cement concrete pavement(EACCP).The noise characteristics of asphaltconcrete(AC)pavement, stone matrix asphalt(SMA)pavement and ultra-thin friction course(Novachip)were estimated and compared with the noise characteristics of anti-slide pavements.Analysis result shows that A-weighted sound levels of concrete pavements with transverse grooves and combined grooves are 100-104 dB(A), the level of concrete pavement with longitudinal grooves is 99-102 dB(A), and the levels are 97-100 dB(A)for EACCP, AC pavement, SMA pavement and Novachip.The peak frequencies in 1/3 octave bands for all types of pavements are nearly 1 000 Hz.A-weighted sound level of the pavement with transverse grooves is larger 3-5 dB(A)than the levels of others pavements at the peak frequency.The result indicates that noise characteristics of concrete pavements in tunnel are induced by the pavement textures and can be improved by selecting reasonable pavement textures.More>

HU Da-lin, CHEN Ding-shi, ZHAO Xiao-you, GONG Jian-ping, LI Ying

Abstract: The structure characteristics of cable-stayed and anchored cantilever casting construction system for the main arch ring of arch bridge were analyzed.The methods to determine the forces of anchored cables in cantilever casting construction were summarized.The advantages, disadvantages, and applicabilities of the zero displacement method, the fixed length jacking cable method, the influence matrix method, and the zero moment method were analyzed.The design and construction schemes of Matihe Bridge being a reinforced concrete arch bridge with net-span of 180 m was taken as engineering background, and the main construction process of long span arch bridge built by using cable stayed cantilever casting method was analyzed.Thecable forces were calculated by using the zero moment method, the cable forces at the maximum cantilever construction stage were optimized by using the influence matrix method with the objective function of bending strain energy.Analysis result shows that the zero moment method is determined to be the most direct and effective control method for the cable-stayed and anchored cantilever casting construction of arch bridges.The stresses in the arch ring section change gradually from partially tensile state to completely compressive state, and both the alignment and stress of arch ring satisfy the design requirements in whole construction process.The tensile stresses of arch ring at the top and bottom sides do not exceed 1.5MPa, the compressive stresses are no more than 7.0 MPa, and the displacements of arch ring are no more than 10 mm.As the cable forces at the maximum cantilever construction stage are optimized, the alignment of arch ring can be adjusted, and its stress state is improved, thus the stress state of arch foot can be closed to "zero" state.The stability of arch ring at cantilever casting construction stage is closely related to the stayed and anchored cable system, and the internal forces, alignment, and stability during construction process are simultaneously dominated by a reasonable stayed and anchored cable system.The stress of arch ring is deeply influenced by the different removal procedures of stayed and anchored cable system, thus the removal process of stayed and anchored cable system should be optimized during construction process.The research results have been successfully applied to the design of the construction scheme and construction control of cantilever casting of the longest span reinforced concrete arch bridge in China, and can be taken as a reference for the design and construction control of other long span arch bridges, which has a practical significance in promoting the development and application of cantilever casting technology of long span reinforced concrete arch bridges. 2 tabs, 10 figs, 29 refs.More>

LI Zai-wei, LEI Xiao-yan, GAO Liang

Abstract: Aiming at the shortwave track irregularity problem, a numerical simulation method based on scattered binary wavelet was proposed.The relationship between ISO 3095 standard spectrum and wavelet coefficients was obtained with ISO 3095 standard spectrum as objective function.The algorithm flow and steps of numerical simulation were designed.Numerical simulation result and field measurement result for a subway section in Shanghai were compared.Analysis result shows that suitable wavelet decomposition level is eight and the lowest level covers the wavelength range of 512-1 024 mm.Time domain waveform of numerical simulation for shortwave track irregularity accords with the statistical characteristics of actual shortwave track irregularity and shows instability, its amplitude value distributes in the range of-0.15-0.15 mm.The difference between numerical simulation result and ISO 3095 standard spectrum results from the difference between octave sampling interval and 1/3 octave sampling interval.Using the binary wavelet transform can effectively realize the numerical simulation for shortwave track irregularity.Simulation result and test result are slightly different in amplitude and detailed wavform.It is suggested to do a large number of measurements and statistical analysis forshortwave track irregularity.More>

CAI Xiao-pei, ZHAO Lei, GAO Liang, ZHONG Yang-long, LAU Albert

Abstract: According to the design scheme of CRTSⅢ slab ballastless track on subgrade, the nonlinear interaction between multilayer structures was considered, and the spatial coupled models of track structure with different longitudinal-continuous lengths of bed plate were established based on finite element method.The lateral stability of track structure and the stresses and deformations of slab, self-compacting concrete layer and bed plate under the temperature load were computed, and the reasonable-longitudinal-continuous length of bed plate was analyzed.Analysis result shows that the lateral stability of slab track is satisfied when the continuous length of bed plate is greater than or equal to the connected length of 2 track slabs.Under the condition of temperature increasing 45 ℃, when the length of bed plate increases, the changes of stress and moment in track slab are not obvious, while the longitudinal displacement linearly increases, and the maximum increasing value is about 58%.For the self-compacting concrete layer, the changes of stress and deformation are more obvious than the values of track slab, and the maximum value of tensile stress is 0.949 MPa.Under the condition of temperaturedecreasing 40 ℃, the influence of continuous length on the bed plate stress is obvious.When the continuous length of bed plate reaches the connected length of 5 track slabs, the longitudinal tensile stress of bed plate increases to 2.67 MPa, which is close to the allowable limit of concrete tensile strength.In summary, based on taking into the factors of lateral stability and structural strength, the reasonable-longitudinal-continuous length of bed plate should be the connected length of 2-5 track slabs.More>

YANG Guo-lin, QIU Ming-ming, YANG Xiao, FANG Yi-he

Abstract: The field vibration test of comprehensive experimental section for new cutting subgrade of Yun-Gui High-Speed Railway in expansive soil area was carried out, the 3Dtrack-subgradebase dynamics model was established by adopting the finite difference software FLAC3 D, and the dynamic responses of new cutting subgrade and the factors sensitivity of water-proof structure layer were studied. Analysis result shows that the water-proof layer can accelerate the attenuation of dynamic stress in subgrade, and reduce the dynamic displacement of subgrade surface.Increasing the thickness and elastic modulus of water-proof layer can reduce the dynamic displacement and the dynamic stress of subgrade beneath the water-proof layer, but will increase the dynamic stress of water-proof layer surface.When the position of water-proof layer lowers, the dynamic stress of subgrade surface increases, but the dynamic displacement of subgrade surface hardly changes.It is recommended that the thickness of water-proof layer is not less than 15 cm for the requirements of Code for Design of High Speed Railway(TB 10621—2009).The sensitive factors to the dynamic stress and displacement of subgrade surface and the dynamic stress of base surface are the laying position, elastic modulus and thickness of water-proof layerin the influence order from big to small.Considering the factors'effects on the dynamic responses of subgrade, it is the optimal solution that the laying thickness of water-proof layer is 20 cm, the elastic modulus is 1.0 GPa, and the laying position is the bottom of subgrade surface.More>

Abstract: The nonlinear elements existing in railway vehicle system were studied, a corrected explicit method with double time steps was introduced, and the corresponding mathematical expressions were provided.Based on the simplified dynamics models of nonlinear railway vehicle system, five typical nonlinear examples of railway vehicle system were used to contrastively analyze the corrected explicit method with double time steps, Newmark method, Wilson-θmethod, Runge-Kutta method, Zhai method and the precise integration method, and the application scopes of the methods in nonlinear railway vehicle system were pointed out.Research result shows that Newmark method and Wilson-θmethod are not applicable for nonlinear railway vehicle system.Newmark method, Wilson-θ method and Runge-Kutta method can lead to spurious vibration in vehicle system including nonlinear vertical wheel-rail forces. When simulation time is 2 s and time steps are 0.4, 0.1, 0.01 ms respectively, the consumed times of corrected explicit method with double time steps are respectively 0.198, 0.829, 7.772 sthat are the shortest or the shorter in six algorithms.When the degree of freedom for nonlinear railway vehicle system is larger, the corrected explicit method with double time steps and Zhai method are recommended to use.More>

ZHOU Xu-hui, LIU Zheng-lin, MENG Xiang-kun, LIU Jiao

Abstract: In allusion to the unstable performance of marine stern shaft mechanical seal caused by the factors such as marine shaft axis bending, shaft misalignment, the wear of stern bearing, the force of propeller, etc., the influence laws of both spherical and planar sealing surface shapes on sealing performance were researched by using both empirical formula and ANSYS finite element method.When water depths are 200, 400, 600 m, the thermal-structural coupling models of both spherical and planar sealing surface were established respectively.The contact areas, the leakage rates, the seal criterias, and the friction powers of unit area were compared, and the influence laws of both spherical and planar sealing surface shapes on the key parameters such as deformation, contact pressure, and temperature, etc., were discussed.Analysis result shows that under the same water depth, the clearance region and the maximum clearance of spherical seal are less than the values of planar seal.Compared to planar seal, the contact pressure of spherical seal changes more smoothly, and the maximum contact pressure of spherical seal is only 40%-50% of the pressure of planar seal. With the increasing of water depth, the contactpressure, temperature, and deformation of the two kinds of sealing surfaces increase, the contact region of sealing surface decrease, the clearance region extends gradually.When water depth increases from 200 m to 600 m, the contact node number of spherical seal decreases from 10 to 6, and the number of planar seal decreases from 7 to 4.When water depth is 200 m, the maximum temperature of spherical sealing surface is 5.499℃ lower than the value of planar sealing surface.The contact area, leakage rate, seal criteria, and the friction power of unit area of spherical seal are all better than the parameters of planar seal, so the spherical seal can improve the mechanical sealing performance of marine stern shaft.More>

Comparison of relative navigation methods for large vessel formation

ZHOU Hong-jin, ZHONG Yun-hai, LI Wei

Abstract: A relative navigation model based on the pseudo-range double-difference of navigation satellite was built.Pseudo-range single difference based least square algorithm, pseudo-range double-difference based least square algorithm, pseudo-range single difference based EKF algorithm and pseudo-range double-difference based EKF algorithm were designed and were compared by tests.Analysis result shows that pseudo-range double-difference based relative navigation model can eliminate ionosphere, troposphere, multi-path, satellite clock error and receive clock error.EKF algorithm can significantly improve the resolution accuracy of relative navigation information compared with least square algorithm. Under EKF algorithm, the resolution accuracy of pseudo-range double-difference is 10% better than pseudo-range single difference.Under the minimum GDOP value principle, when the number of satellites increases, the distance resolution accuracy becomes better. When baseline length is 2 m, the distance resolution accuracy of pseudo-range double-difference based EKF algorithm can reach within 0.10 m, azimuth resolution accuracy can reach 4.0°, so the test accuracy and frequency in this paper can satisfy the relative navigation demand of keeping quasi dynamic for large vessel formation. 3 tabs, 27 figs, 20 refs.More>
