高速铁路大跨长联连续梁桥减隔震方案优化研究

结合某高烈度区高速铁路大跨长联连续梁桥的特点,通过全桥引入粘滞阻尼器、Lock-up和双曲面减隔震支座3种减隔震方案,建立全桥有限元模型,从分散抗震角度出发,采用非线性时程分析法研究3种方案的减隔震效果,总结3种方案的利弊,并基于3种方案提出粘滞阻尼器+Lock-up联合使用的优化方案。结果表明:对于桥墩高矮相差较为明显的高速铁路大跨长联连续梁桥,全桥布置粘滞阻尼器减震效果较差,全桥布置Lock-up方案对较矮墩十分不利,双曲面减隔震支座减震时会产生较大的墩梁相对位移,而粘滞阻尼器+Lock-up装置联合使用的优化方案在实现高效减震的同时很好地控制墩梁相对位移。     

FVD与FPB在大跨长联减隔震体系梁桥中的联合作用机理研究

为验证液体黏滞阻尼器(FVD)与摩擦摆支座(FPB)组合在大跨长联减隔震体系梁桥中的应用效果,以一联(50+8×100+50) m预应力混凝土连续梁桥为工程背景,建立全桥有限元模型,通过输入场地地震安评报告提供的50年超越概率为2%的三条人工模拟地震波,开展单独及组合使用液体黏滞阻尼器和摩擦摆支座的大跨长联梁桥减隔震研究,从能量耗散的角度揭示液体黏滞阻尼器与摩擦摆支座组合在大跨长联减隔震体系梁桥中的联合作用机理。结果表明,大跨长联梁桥仅使用黏滞阻尼器,其长周期特性激发黏滞阻尼器充分发挥耗能,但无法避免对固定墩的地震损伤;仅使用摩擦摆支座隔震在纵(横)向强震下会引起支座位移超限;摩擦摆支座与黏滞阻尼器组合的减震机理为摩擦摆支座提供墩梁间的弱连接,激发墩梁间的相对速度,促进黏滞阻尼器(速度型)充分发挥阻尼耗能作用。另外,组合减震方案中摩擦摆支座为辅助耗能装置,黏滞阻尼器为主要耗能装置,且主控梁体位移;相比仅使用摩擦摆支座隔震,由于黏滞阻尼器激发的阻尼力增强了墩梁间约束,这种组合减隔震可能使结构输入能量增加,从而导致地震反应加剧。     

高烈度区大跨度桥梁粘滞阻尼器减震研究

高烈度地震对铁路桥梁安全造成巨大隐患,且次生灾害将引起较大经济损失。该大跨连续梁桥所处地震带正进入活跃期,未来有发生较大规模强烈地震的可能,但桥梁自身不具备高烈度抗震能力,需利用粘滞阻尼器对其进行减震处理。采用斜向设置阻尼器并配合双曲面球型支座,来控制可能发生的纵向和横向地震。通过数值模拟进行阻尼器参数敏感性分析以及减震效果讨论,进而确定其最优设置方案。选取相关参数作为评价指标,对比加设阻尼器前后易损部位的地震响应,确定其在高烈度地震荷载激励下的减震效果。研究结果表明:在液体粘滞阻尼器的作用下,使得各墩协同受力,大大增加了结构的整体性,同时能很好弥补减隔震支座不能很好的控制上部结构位移的缺点,同时能降低罕遇地震力对桥墩的冲击损伤。因此,在高烈度区大跨度桥梁中更有必要设置阻尼器来抗震。     

矮塔斜拉桥的减震方案对比研究

针对位于高烈度地震区的刚构连续梁体系矮塔斜拉桥的受力特点,提出了分别采用粘滞液体阻尼器、Lock-up装置及摩擦型滑动支座3种减隔震方案,并采用非线性时程反应分析方法分析了3种方案的减震效果。结果表明:3种减隔震装置对矮塔斜拉桥均有明显的减震效果,粘滞阻尼器及Lock-up装置减震效果较好,滑动摩擦支座的减震效果次之。但从结构的正常使用及结构体系的地震响应分布规律来看,粘滞液体阻尼器的减震方案最优。     

减隔震技术在连续梁桥中的应用

介绍了桥梁减隔震技术的基本原理,系统地归纳了目前常用的减隔震装置的隔震机理和力学模型。以外砂河大桥为实际工程背景,进行了采用减隔震技术的桥梁的有限元分析,介绍了下部结构的强度验算方法,研究了高阻尼橡胶支座和粘滞阻尼器对该桥引桥减隔震的效果。隔震装置采用非线性弹簧单元模拟,利用非线性动力时程分析,在该桥采用了高阻尼橡胶支座后研究其地震响应,然后与引入阻尼器后结构的地震响应进行了比较。分析表明:把桥梁结构和隔震装置作为整体结构考虑时,可达到很好的减隔震效果,使内力分配合理,并且减小结构的相对位移。     

带有双曲面球型减隔震支座的钢桁梁节段模型拟静力试验研究

道庆洲桥是一座公轨两用双层变高钢桁组合桥梁,采用双曲面球型减隔震支座。该支座的竖向承载力为135 000 kN,超出桥梁双曲面球型减隔震支座规范的正常标准。为了研究此桥的抗震性能及其支座性能,本文设计和制作了安装有与实桥支座的竖向承载力相似比为1∶25的双曲面球型减隔震支座的双层变高度钢桁梁节段的缩尺模型,对其进行拟静力试验。得到了整个模型在不同支座轴压比下的滞回曲线、骨架曲线、刚度和水平承载力退化、耗能能力和滑动摩擦系数等抗震性能指标。试验结果表明:不同支座轴压比下,模型的滞回曲线饱满,呈现为平行四边形;与普通双曲面球型减隔震支座相比,支座的滞回性能相同;随着支座轴压比的增加,模型的水平承载能力、累积耗能、初始刚度和滑动摩擦系数也会相应增加,但对于水平承载力退化、刚度退化和等效黏滞系数影响较小;试验模型具有良好的抗震性能。     

高墩大跨度铁路简支钢桁梁桥的减震性能分析

采用时程分析方法,研究了具有减隔震支座的铁路高墩大跨度简支钢桁梁桥的减震性能,探讨减隔震技术在高墩桥梁中的适用性.通过数值分析研究了采用铅芯橡胶支座、盆式橡胶支座和双曲面支座时的减震效果.计算结果表明,在铁路高墩大跨度简支钢桁梁桥上使用减隔震支座具有一定的减震效果.     

滑动摩擦隔震桥梁振动台试验研究

滑动摩擦隔震支座具有良好的耗能能力、较大水平位移能力和较好的耐久性能,为桥梁减隔震设计提供了一种新方法。本文针对分别安装有单球面摩擦摆支座、双凹面摩擦摆支座、多球面滑动摩擦支座的3种隔震桥梁模型开展了振动台试验研究。通过观察和量测模型桥梁位移、加速度等反应,得出采用3种滑动摩擦支座的隔震桥梁反应特性和隔震效果。由此可知,滑动摩擦隔震支座能有效减小地震对桥梁上部结构的影响,滑动摩擦隔震支座的自振周期与桥梁上部结构无关,只与支座摩擦系数和等效曲率半径相关。     

基于负刚度装置的超长联大跨连续梁桥地震反应控制研究

为完善超长联大跨连续梁桥的减、隔震技术,将负刚度装置引入到超长联大跨隔震连续梁桥中组成新型减、隔震系统,并与黏滞阻尼器-摩擦摆支座组合减震系统进行比较。基于CSiBridge软件建立全桥有限元模型,负刚度装置采用弹性多段线模拟,摩擦摆支座采用双线性恢复力模型,黏滞阻尼器采用Maxwell模型,输入3条地震波进行非线性时程分析,考查两种新型减、隔震系统下桥梁结构的地震反应,探究负刚度系统及黏滞阻尼器系统对超长联大跨连续梁桥地震反应的控制效果。研究结果表明：负刚度装置与黏滞阻尼器均可以有效地减小超长联大跨隔震连续梁桥的支座位移。负刚度装置对桥墩内力反应及梁体加速度反应的控制优于黏滞阻尼器。负刚度装置在超长联大跨连续梁桥地震反应控制中有较好的应用前景。     

近断层地震动下设置BRB的双向减隔震桥梁地震反应

在近断层地震动下桥梁结构将发生较大反应,减隔震设计是减轻地震损伤的重要手段。提出了在桥梁双柱墩横桥向设置防屈曲支撑(BRB),在纵桥向设置铅芯橡胶支座(LRB)的双向减隔震体系。利用Midas Civil软件建立3种不同减隔震方式的桥梁结构模型:LRB仅单向,LRB双向与LRB联合BRB,运用非线性时程分析方法计算了桥墩反应(墩顶侧移角、残余位移角和曲率延性)、LRB支座变形和BRB的耗能特性等。结果表明:在近断层地震动输入下联合设置LRB和BRB的双向减隔震桥梁减震效果明显,相比其它2种方式,能有效降低墩柱的塑性变形及起到保护桥墩的作用。在横桥向,桥墩最大侧移角、残余位移角和最大曲率延性系数都显著降低。

A Monte Carlo study of rainfall forecasting with a stochastic model

A procedure for short-term rainfall forecasting in real-time is developed and a study of the role of sampling on forecast ability is conducted. Ground level rainfall fields are forecasted using a stochastic space-time rainfall model in state-space form. Updating of the rainfall field in real-time is accomplished using a distributed parameter Kalman filter to optimally combine measurement information and forecast model estimates. The influence of sampling density on forecast accuracy is evaluated using a series of a simulated rainfall events generated with the same stochastic rainfall model. Sampling was conducted at five different network spatial densities. The results quantify the influence of sampling network density on real-time rainfall field forecasting. Statistical analyses of the rainfall field residuals illustrate improvement in one hour lead time forecasts at higher measurement densities.     

Distribution of throughfall and stemflow in multi‐strata agroforestry,perennial monoculture,fallow and primary forest in central Amazonia,Brazil

The partitioning of rain water into throughfall, stemflow and interception loss when passing through plant canopies depends on properties of the respective plant species, such as leaf area and branch angles. In heterogeneous vegetation, such as tropical forest or polycultural systems, the presence of different plant species may consequently result in a mosaic of situations with respect to quantity and quality of water inputs into the soil. As these processes influence not only the water availability for the plants, but also water infiltration and nutrient leaching, the understanding of plant effects on the repartitioning of rain water may help in the optimization of land use systems and management practices. We measured throughfall and stemflow in a perennial polyculture (multi‐strata agroforestry), monocultures of peach palm (Bactris gasipaes) for fruit and for palmito, a monoculture of cupuaçu (Theobroma grandiflorum), spontaneous fallow and primary forest during one year in central Amazonia, Brazil. The effect on rain water partitioning was measured separately for four useful tree species in the polyculture and for two tree species in the primary forest. Throughfall at two stem distances, and stemflow, differed significantly between tree species, resulting in pronounced spatial patterns of water input into the soil in the polyculture system. For two tree species, peach palm for fruit (Bactris gasipaes) and Brazil nut trees (Bertholletia excelsa), the water input into the soil near the stem was significantly higher than the open‐area rainfall. This could lead to increased nutrient leaching when fertilizer is applied close to the stem of these trees. In the primary forest, such spatial patterns could also be detected, with significantly higher water input near a palm (Oenocarpus bacaba) than near a dicotyledonous tree species (Eschweilera sp.). Interception losses were 6·4% in the polyculture, 13·9 and 12·3% in the peach palm monocultures for fruit and for palmito, respectively, 0·5% in the cupuaçu monoculture and 3·1% in the fallow. With more than 20% of the open‐area rainfall, the highest stemflow contributions to the water input into the soil were measured in the palm monocultures and in the fallow.

Anthropogenic Eutrophication and Red Tide Outbreak in Lacustrine Systems of the Kashmir Himalaya

Red tide, a recurrent phenomenon has become conspicuous in several Kashmir lake ecosystems since 1991. The responsible organism (Euglena pedunculata), a rare flagellate rediscovered in the Kashmir Himalaya (Khan 1993) caused first and unprecedented red tide outbreak, constituting a maximum of 96% of resident numerical phytoplankton density in Dal Lake. At present, conflicting hypotheses exist on the generation of causal assemblage(s) imparting redness to waters: Jeeji Bai (1991) linked its origin to acid precipitation – a fallout of burning oil‐fields during the Gulf War – whilst Khan (1993) holds local factor(s) responsible. Field/experimental studies support the latter contention that the influx of untreated sewage, in unison with warm temperatures, high levels of PhAR, iron and interruption to hydrological flow‐pattern together with absence/or reduction in grazing activity created conducive environmental milieu for red tide outbreak. Dal Lake “red tide” drifted the bloom‐inoculum to other waters, including Lake Wular, where additional ecological niches were carved out, threatening the aesthetic value and biological diversity of Kashmir lakes. Ecological monitoring indicates frequent seasonal red tide occurrence in Dal Lake (including summer‐autumn event of 1998) which testifies its unabated eutrophication status. Further studies are needed on ecological adaptability and biogeographic distribution of this rare and unique red tide‐causing flagellate.
