Finite element analysis of infinitely long beam resting on continuous viscoelastic foundation subjected to moving loads

LOU Ping, CENG Qing-yuan

Abstract: The beam, foundation and moving loads were considered as a system, and the system was separated into a number of finite elements.Hermitian cubic interpolation function were utilized as the bending shape functions of the two-node beam element.The element stiffness matrix, mass matrix, damping matrix, and vector of element nodal forces could be obtained by the principle of total potential energy with stationary value in elastic system dynamics. The vibration equations of the system were established. The equations were solved by Wilson θ-method, and the displacement time histories of the beam at mid-point were found. Several numerical examples were presented, and the influences of the viscoelastic characteristic of foundation and the bending stiffness of beam on dynamic responses of beam were analyzed.Calculation results show that the increase either of spring stiffness, or of damping coefficient of foundation or of the bending stiffness of beam each leads to the decrease of dynamic responses of beam.More>

Probabilistic mechanical properties of LZ50 axle steel for railway vehicles

ZHAO Yong-xiang, HUANG Yu-zhong, GAO Qing

Abstract: Experimental study on the probabilistic mechanical properties was performed on the LZ50 axle steel for railway vehicles.The unified approach for determining appropriate statistical models of the limited fatigue reliability data was developed to analyze the present test data.The six commonly used distributions, namely three parameter Weibull, two parameter Weibull, normal, lognormal, extreme maximum value, and extreme minimum value, were compared in fits of the data from the three considerations of goodness-of-fit, consistency of failure mechanism and safety in tail region predictions.From the viewpoint of safety, the extreme minimum value distribution was selected as an optimal model of the data.A method based on this distribution was proposed for the estimation of mechanical properties under given reliability and confidence levels.The method has been well used for the estimation of probabilistic parameters of the mechanical properties of the present material.More>

Influence of joint's position and rigidity on precast box structure's internal force

LIU Hui-min, LI Zhi-ye, PEI Jun

Abstract: Taking a subway project as an example, a precast double-scan box structure was divided into five parts by using elastic double-dimension finite-element-method, those five parts included top-board, bottom-board and side-wall. The position and rigidity of the joints of those five parts have a great influence on the structure's internal force. The calculation results show that the joint's rigidity can affect the max positive moment of side-wall, the max negative moment and max positive moment of top-board; the joint's position also have influence on the max positive moment and max negative moment of top-board and side-wall; the joint's position should be located on side-wall where its moment is negative.More>

Effect of vestibule diaphragm device on train dynamic performance

LIU Hong-you, WEI Xiao-dong, CENG Jing, WANG Yong

Abstract: The modelling of vestibule diaphragm was discussed. Based on the dynamic model of a single passenger car, a train dynamic model with three passenger cars was derived. By solving the differential equation groups to describe the train system, a series of simulation results about hunting motion stability, dynamic negotiation and ride comfort were worked out. The results show that the hunting motion of the train is due to the last bogie of the last car; the negotiation ability gets worse with the increasing of curving speed and the decreasing of curve radius; the ride comfort of the middle car is better than that of the head car and the tail car; the ride comfort of the train with tightlock vestibule diaphragm is the worst. It is suggested that the cushioning device should be added to the train with tightlock vestibule diaphragms.More>

Review on ship motion control

YANG Yan-sheng

Abstract: Some problems remaining unsolved in the area of ship motion control were analyzed. It was pointed that there were three problems, i.e., the first is that uncertainty always exists in the mathematical model used for designing controller, which has not been given a full attention yet; the second is that non-linearity is not included in the model when designing the controller; the last is that the actuator dynamics is not considered when designing the controller. By use of robust control and robust adaptive control theorem, several strategies that can be used to solve above problems were presented. The performance of proposed methods is illustrated with simulation results.More>

CAO Jian-ming, WU Tao, CHENG Qian, QI Dong-hui, BIAN Yao-zhang

Abstract: The comparison was analyzed by using high resolving power digital camera.Resultsshow that with LPG mixed ratio increasing, fuel droplet mean-diameters of the sprays decrease, the curve of fuel droplet size number distribution moves toward smaller diameters, and the small-size droplet number increases, spray quality goes well, and engine smoke reduces accordingly; large-size droplet diameters almost have no change, but small-size droplet diameters decrease, and relative size range and dispersion boundary of droplets increase; with penetrated distance of spray increasing, diesel droplet sizes increase, droplet sizes number distribution of the mixed fuel moves toward smaller diameters, and droplet diameters of cumulate volume increase. Both relative size range and dispersion boundary of fuel droplets have a decrease tendency; the volume distribution of fuel droplets goes to uniform gradually within larger-size range, because penetrated distance is large, spray shot distance always equal to the maximum distance that fuel can touch combustion chamber wall.More>

WU Zheng

Abstract: The traffic flow modelling was established by shock wave simulation method. It is showed that a shock wave speed distribution in red light period at a plane intersection satisfies a normal assumption, as well as Poisson assumption. Based on completely jammed model, the wave speed increases as an exponential function of the traffic flow quantity. Traffic behavior parameter value may change 0 02~0 30 across the interrupted surface. The non-completely jammed model can calculate a control traffic quantity at upstream entrance of a bottleneck. 4 tabs, 8 refs.More>
