YAN Xi-li, TIAN Hui-li, YAN Xi-le, YOU Qing-long, AI Tao

Abstract: In order to quantitatively evaluate the mixing workability and to deeply know the evolution mechanism of the strength of bituminous mixture, an experimental device of mixing power measurement at different velocities named V-P-Mixer was developed in laboratory based on the conventional mixing devices, and an experiment was carried out for the mixing rheological behavior of bituminous mixture.Based on AC-13C bituminous mixtures with different bitumen contents(0-8%), the mixing powers were measured at different mixing temperatures(130 ℃-170 ℃)and mixing velocities(20-50 r·min^-1), the power-velocity diagrams were analyzed, a visco-plastic mixing rheological model was presented, and the workability index was defined as the reciprocal of mixing viscosity.Analysis result shows that the alternating errors of electric current, voltage and power consumed during mixing are respectively 2.25%, 0.11% and 5%, and the repeatability error is 0.25%, so the measurement is stable and reliable to characterize themixing power of bituminous mixture; the mixing rheological property obeys the linear Bingham model, in which the straight slope represents the general viscosity of bituminous mixture, and the reciprocal of the viscosity is defined as the workability index; when the temperature increases by 10 ℃, the mixture's viscosity decreases and the workability index increases by 10%-20%, so it is easier to mix; the mixing power and resistance increase with the increase of bitumen content, and the workability index decreases by 5%-25% when the bitumen content increases by 1%;aggregate plays plastic role, and bitumen plays viscous role in the strength mechanism of bituminous mixture.More>

XUE Yong-chao, QIAN Zhen-dong

Abstract: In order to study the comprehensive relationship between the key factors in construction and the pavement performances of epoxy asphalt concrete, the variation of key factors in construction was simulated, and the multi-index orthogonal experiment was carried out in the laboratory.The key factors included mass ratio of component A(the epoxy resin)to component B(the mixture of petroleum asphalt and curing agent)in epoxy asphalt, asphalt-aggregate ratio, aggregate gradation, molding time of concrete, molding temperature of concrete, and compaction work.The multiple indexes included high-temperature stability, low-temperature anti-cracking performance, fatigue resistance performance, water permeability, skid resistance, and moisturesusceptibility.The improved grey situation decision was used to calculate the grey comprehensive relevancy between the pavement performances of every situation in orthogonal experiment and the optimal situation, and the range and the variance were analyzed by using the statistical product and service solutions(SPSS)software.Analysis result shows that the grey comprehensive relevancy of situation 4 is 0.943 7 and 0.081 1 larger than the value of situation 3, which indicates that the relational closeness between each situation and optimal situation changes significant.Based on the grey comprehensive relevancy of every situation, 18 kinds of schemes making specimens are ranked from good to bad.The range of molding time is 2.857, while the range of aggregate gradation is 1.555, and the larger difference of 1.302 between the two key factors shows that the influences of different key factors in construction on the pavement performances are different.Based on the ranges, key ranked factors are molding time of concrete, asphalt-aggregate ratio, mass ratio of component A to component B, compaction work, molding temperature of concrete, and aggregate gradation according to the influences from big to small.By comparing the average values of grey comprehensive relevancies of each level of all key factors, the determined best construction scheme is that the mass ratio of component A to component B is 1∶2.9, asphalt-aggregate ratio is 6.5%, the passing rate of 2.36 mm of aggregate gradation is the median of design value, molding time is 55 min, molding temperature is 120 ℃, and compaction work is 24 times.The F test value of every key factor in variance analysis is bigger than 19, so key factors and their levels have good conspicuousness.Obviously, the improved grey situation decision can be used to effectively evaluate the pavement performances of epoxy asphalt concrete under different construction schemes, and to determine the influence degrees of key factors in construction on the pavement performances of epoxy asphalt concrete and the best construction scheme combined with the range analysis.More>

DONG Jie-can, CHEN Yi-yan, BRISEGHELLA Bruno, WU Qing-xiong, WANG Meng-yu

Abstract: A new composite structure composed of corrugated steel webs(CSW), double concrete filled steel tubular chords(CFST)and concrete slabs(CS)was presented.To understand the flexural behaviors under positive and negative bending moments, the experiments of new composite continuous box-girder were carried out, and the failure modes and deflection patterns of the girder, and the development rules of concrete plate cracks were studied.According to the test results, the calculation methods of deformation and bearing capacity of the new type of composite girder were put forward and verified.Experimental result shows the strain peak values of mid-span and intermediate support are only 3.7% and 5.1% of the value of bottom steel concrete pipe chord respectively, therefore the longitudinal strains of corrugated steel webs are small and negligible in the positive and negative bending moment areas.The longitudinal strains linearly change along the height of cross section, thus the plane cross-section assumption can beapplied in the composite girder.Moreover, the top concrete flange and the bottom steel concrete pipe chord bear load together.When the cracking load is 140 kN, the calculated and experimental deflection are 5.8 mm and 5.5 mm, respectively, and the relative error is about 5%.When the load of mid-span cross section of test beam reaches the ultimate flexural capacity, the theoretical and experimental load are 399 kN and 415 kN, respectively, the experimental value is slightly higher than the calculated value, but the error is very small and about 4%, so the theoretical calculation methods of deflection and flexural capacity of composite beam are simple and reliable.More>

CHEN Xu-jun, YU Wei, LIU Jun-yi

Abstract: In order to study the energy conversion relations in the process of collision between ship and the flexible floating collision-prevention system (FFCPS), the influence of elastic modulus of connecting cable chain on energy dissipation was analyzed.Based on the basic principle of energy conservation, reasonable assumptions were made on the simulation conditions of numerical calculation, and the movement process of flexible floating collision-prevention system was simulated when the system was hit by ship.Under different elastic moduli of connecting cable chain, the changing rules of moving distances of gravity anchors were analyzed.2 kinds of mathematical models were established based on the principle of similarity in displacement and equality in energy, and the numerical calculation results were compared with the experiment results.Analysis result indicates that the elastic moduli of connecting cable chain measure the deformation degree of cable chain, and it is an important influencing factor in the conversion between ship kinetic energy and elastic potential energy.Under the same conditions, the bigger the elastic modulus of connecting cable chain is, the harder the deformation of connecting cable chain is, the less the energy that ship kinetic energy converts into elastic potential energy is, themore the energy that ship kinetic energy converts into friction energy is, and the longer the moving distance of gravity anchor is.Through the comparison between numerical calculation results and experiment results, the suitable value of elastic modulus of connecting cable chain in model test is 260 GPa.To be sure that the connecting cable chain cannot be broken, the selection of cable chain directly affectes the moving distance of system anchor, thus affects the arresting effect of flexible floating collision-prevention system.More>

Effect of system parameters on tread-hollow wear of high-speed train wheels

HUANG Cai-hong, LUO Ren, CENG Jing, SONG Chun-yuan

Abstract: In order to investigate the reasons of tread-hollow wear of high-speed train wheel, a wear prediction model was set up by coupling a vehicle-track system dynamics model to a wear model.In the wheel-rail normal contact, the shape of contact patch and the distribution of normal force were calculated by using Herz's contact theory.In the wheel-rail tangential contact, the tangential force was calculated by using Kalker's simplified theory.The wear loss was calculated by using Achard's wear model.To revise the wear prediction model, the wheel tread wear shape of CRH₃ high-speed train running on Wuhan-Guangzhou Line was simulated, and compared with the wear shape collected from field test.In order to get the wear law close to field test result, the uncertainty of wear coefficient was considered, and the initial wear coefficient should be divided by 10 in wear prediction.Based on the modified theory model, the effects of rail profile, wheelprofile, vehicle speed, track irregularity, line condition, the structure and suspension parameters of bogie on the tread wear law of high-speed train wheel were studied.Analysis result indicates that wheel and rail profiles affect the location, depth, and the width of wheel tread wear, vehicle speed affects the depth of wheel tread wear, track irregularity affects the depth and width of wheel tread wear, and line curve radius affects the depth and width of wheel tread wear.Too high vehicle speed, unreasonable wheel-rail matching relation, and too high track straightness will cause a centered wheel wear, and lead to tread-hollow wear.The suspension and structure parameters of bogie have little impact on tread-hollow wear.More>

WANG Yang-yang, CHEN Guang-da, LI Nan, YUAN Yi-qing

Abstract: Aiming at the problem of thermal failure of dry clutch during semi-linkage operation, the thermal stability of clutch in semi-linkage process was studied.Based on the sliding friction power of clutch during semi-linkage operation, the key variables effecting the thermal stability were acquired, including the axial pressure of friction plate, relative sliding speed and sliding friction duration time.With the combination of dry clutch thermal model and highly accelerated life test (HALT) method, the enhancement loading profile was designed, and the effect of cyclic enhancement loading test of friction plate thermal model was verified.In order to reflect the influence degrees of different variables on the thermal stability in highly accelerated life test, the effect of sensitive variables on the highest hot spot temperature of friction plate was studied by using orthogonal test and range analysis method.Analysis result indicates that according to the influence degrees from the great to the little, the order of key variables are relative sliding speed, sliding friction duration time and the axial pressure of friction plate respectively.When the engine is running at a lower speed of 1 000 r·min^-1, the hot spot temperature is always under the safe temperature of 200 ℃.When the engine speed exceeds 1 500 r·min^-1, the axial pressure of friction plate is more than 2.0 kN, and the sliding friction duration time is more than 8 s, the hot spot temperature will exceed the safe temperature of 200 ℃. With the right semi-linkage operation, such as controlling both the engine speed and the accumulation time of frequent semilinkage operation, the thermal failure of friction plate can be effectively prevented.More>

SHAO Hai-peng, LU Ji-na, DONG Hai-qian

Abstract: In order to compare the delays of exclusive left turn lane and through-left shared lane in permitted left turn phase, the operation laws of traffic flow under two left turn traffic organization modes were analyzed.Based on the gap acceptance theory, the arrival rate and the left turn vehicle percentage were taken as variables to build the delay models for two left turn traffic organization modes with Poisson arrival londition respectively.The geometric design and signal control data of a intersection in Xi'an were taken as example to analyze the delays.Calculation result shows that total delays increase with the increase of arrival rate and left turn vehicle percentage.When arrival rate is smaller, the delay with exclusive left turn lane is larger.The delay with through-left shared lane gradually approaches or even overtakes the delay with exclusive left turn lane with the increase of arrival rate.Through-left shared lane is suitable for smaller traffic demand, and exclusive left turn lane is suitable for larger traffic demand.When arrival rate is no more than 0.12 pcu·s^-1, or arrival rate is 0.12-0.18 pcu·s^-1 and left turnvehicle percentage is no more than 0.2, through-left shared lane layout is recommended.When arrival rate is no less than 0.18 pcu·s^-1, or arrival rate is 0.12-0.18 pcu·s^-1 and left turn vehicle percentage is more than 0.2, exclusive left turn lane layout is recommended.More>
