针对地震作用下公路桥梁的碰撞问题,采用接触单元法模拟桥梁之间的碰撞作用,并在此基础上研究了采用磁流变阻尼器的公路桥梁碰撞的半主动控制方法。通过对某公路桥梁的数值模拟发现,地震作用下桥梁之间的相互碰撞,将大幅增加桥梁的绝对加速度响应。采用磁流变阻尼器的半主动控制系统能够较好地降低结构的地震响应和消除地震作用下的碰撞。     

考虑支座摩擦滑移及结构碰撞的非规则人字形桥梁地震响应分析

针对非规则人字形桥梁在地震作用下灾变严重的问题,以一座非规则人字形桥梁为研究对象,建立其空间分析模型,研究综合考虑支座摩擦滑移、结构碰撞对非规则人字形桥梁地震响应的影响。结果表明:邻梁间的碰撞作用可使得桥梁墩顶位移及内力相比不考虑时有所减小,但同时也使梁体产生了较大的加速度脉冲效应;当考虑支座摩擦滑移和结构碰撞时,固定墩墩顶位移和邻梁相对位移峰值有一定程度增大,然而对梁体加速度脉冲效应结果影响并无统一规律;纵向地震波作用下,非规则人字形桥梁不仅存在顺桥向的碰撞,横桥向的碰撞响应也不容忽视。非规则人字形桥梁进行抗震设计计算时应选取符合实际情况的计算模型,考虑支座摩擦滑移及结构间的碰撞。     

高架桥梁的地震碰撞和落梁分析及其控制

高架桥梁是城市交通网络的连接枢纽,在国内外历次大地震下高架桥梁都遭受了严重破坏。本文针对高架桥梁在地震作用下的碰撞和落梁,阐述了一维纵向碰撞以及扭转碰撞分析中所涉及的相关问题,并针对高架桥梁碰撞的磁流变阻尼器(MR)半主动控制以及采用形状记忆合金(SMA)限位器的落梁控制进行了研究。     

空间多点地震作用下桥梁结构碰撞响应振动台试验研究

地震造成的桥梁上部结构碰撞及落梁破坏在历次大地震中基本都能观察到,以往的研究大多数局限于地震作用下桥梁碰撞响应的数值模拟研究,相关的试验研究还不多。此外,这些研究中也少有考虑空间多维多点地震动作用引起的桥梁上部结构更大的异向振动。本文采用振动台台阵系统,对空间多维多点地震作用下相邻桥梁结构碰撞响应进行试验研究。试验设计制作了几何缩尺比为1∶6的桥梁模型,研究比较了空间多点激励以及摇摆基础与固定基础两种基础形式对试验模型地震碰撞响应的影响。介绍了试验模型的设计制作、传感器布置,给出了试验结果及模型桥梁碰撞破坏情况。试验结果表明,地震动的空间变异性不能忽视,较大的碰撞力会引起桥梁伸缩缝处混凝土严重的局部破坏,相比于固定基础,摇摆基础能有效降低墩的破坏程度,但提高了上部结构的碰撞及落梁风险。     

SMA复合支座-巨型框架结构体系减震效果分析

在研究形状记忆合金（SMA）绞线-叠层橡胶复合支座基础上,本文提出了SMA复合支座-巨型框架减震结构体系,建立了SMA复合支座-巨型框架减震结构体系的计算模型和运动方程,研究了该结构的动力反应特性,并将其与普通巨型框架结构、应用普通橡胶支座巨型框架结构进行了非线性时程对比分析。结果表明,SMA复合支座-巨型框架减震结构体系能有效地减小结构的地震响应,同时避免了地震时主次结构之间产生碰撞破坏。     

地震作用下隔震简支梁桥碰撞反应的振动台试验

由地震引发的碰撞是影响桥梁地震反应以及造成桥梁破坏的重要因素。本文对地震作用下隔震简支梁桥的碰撞反应进行了振动台试验。设计制作1个两跨简支的隔震梁桥模型,试验研究了梁间隙、邻梁质量比、隔震支座类型等参数对桥梁碰撞反应的影响。试验结果表明邻梁间隙、邻梁质量比、隔震支座类型等参数对桥梁的碰撞反应有着显著的影响。邻梁间隙越大,碰撞次数越少;邻梁质量比越大,撞击力越大。铅芯橡胶支座比板式橡胶支座耗能能力更强,可以有效降低邻梁之间的撞击力甚至避免碰撞发生。从而为桥梁防碰撞设计提供了可靠的试验依据。     

行波激励下考虑结构碰撞的非规则桥梁抗震性能研究

基于动力学基本原理,建立非规则桥梁的多自由度动力简化模型,根据拉格朗日方程推导简化模型的动力方程,结合龙格—库塔方法,采用自编程序研究行波激励下非规则桥梁综合考虑支座摩擦滑移、结构碰撞等非线性因素作用时的抗震性能。结果表明,行波效应和碰撞效应的共同作用可使矮墩的弯矩需求增大;行波激励可使板式橡胶支座位移增大,地震波最后到达的桥墩其上方支座位移峰值增加最为明显;相比高墩,地震作用下矮墩上部的板式橡胶支座易发生滑动。因此非规则桥梁进行防碰撞设计时应考虑行波激励及支座摩擦,找出相邻结构的最大碰撞力,以指导设计。     

地震作用下简支梁桥非线性碰撞分析

采用能量原理建立了能考虑梁薄壁特性的桥梁上部结构梁段单元动力分析模型,利用非线性接触单元Kelvin碰撞模型,考虑非线性支座的滞回特性(采用W en模型),选择适合不同场地条件的地震波,以京港澳高速公路孟姜女河桥(3跨简支梁桥)为例,进行了桥梁结构纵向碰撞非线性地震响应分析。计算结果表明,随着地震波强度的增加,桥梁上部结构碰撞次数明显增加,结构响应峰值均有所增大;跨间碰撞发生对地震响应值影响较大;伸缩缝间距大小及各跨长度比变化对跨间碰撞效应影响很大;结构碰撞响应对输入地震波具有较强的频谱敏感性;桥梁碰撞计算时桥台铅芯橡胶支座不能简单按简支约束处理。所得结论可供桥梁抗震设计参考。     

人字形曲线梁桥振动台试验研究

为研究人字形曲线桥梁在地震输入下的地震反应特性,按1/20的几何比例设计制作了一座人字形曲线桥模型,进行了单向和多向输入下的振动台试验。研究了人字形桥梁结构在地震作用下的震害现象,以及多向输入对梁跨中及邻梁碰撞响应的影响。结果表明:梁体和桥墩主要表现为以弯曲裂缝为主的破坏模式,墩梁相对位移随着地震烈度的增大而增大;梁跨中加速度响应在三向和双向输入下都较单向输入为大,双向和三向输入都会使邻梁间的相对位移较单向输入时增大,更容易使结构发生碰撞;人字形桥梁结构地震响应不但与地震波输入方向有关,且与输入地震波的频谱特性和结构的形式及自身特性有关。     

基于IDA分析的深水隔震桥梁抗震性能评估

考虑地震动水压力和波浪效应的共同作用,建立了隔震桥梁的弹塑性有限元分析模型,从太平洋地震研究中心(PEER)的数据库中选取17条天然地震记录对桥墩、铅芯橡胶支座(LRB)进行了IDA分析,通过对IDA曲线的统计形成了桥墩和LRB的概率分位曲线,进而对桥墩、LRB及桥梁系统进行了抗震性能评估。分析得出,基于IDA的抗震性能评估曲线不仅能够清楚地反映出隔震桥梁在不同强度地震下的损伤状况,也能够结合结构所定义的极限状态评估出结构能够抵抗地震等级的大小。桥墩和LRB在17条天然地震动作用下的IDA曲线都表明,随着地震动加速度峰值的增加,各曲线的离散程度愈明显;LRB和桥墩抗震性能的评估显示,LRB在加速度峰值0.1g左右时开始进入屈服阶段,先于桥墩和桥梁结构破坏,故能够起到保护桥梁的作用。     

Implications of seismic pounding on the longitudinal response of multi-span bridges-an analytical perspective

Seismic pounding between adjacent frames in multiple-frame bridges and girder ends in multi-span simply supported bridges has been commonly observed in several recent earthquakes. The consequences of pounding include damage to piers, abutments, shear keys, bearings and restrainers, and possible collapse of deck spans. This paper investigates pounding in bridges from an analytical perspective. A simplified nonlinear model of a multiple-frame bridge is developed including the effects of inelastic frame action and nonlinear hinge behavior, to study the seismic response to longitudinal ground motion. Pounding is implemented using the contact force-based Kelvin model, as well as the momentum-based stereomechanical approach, Parameter studies are conducted to determine the effects of frame period ratio, column hysteretic behavior, energy dissipation during impact and near source ground motions on the pounding response of the bridge. The results indicate that pounding is most critical for highly out-of-phase frames and is not significant for frame period ratios greater than 0.7. Impact models without energy dissipation overestimate the displacement and acceleration amplifications due to impact, especially for elastic behavior of the frames. Representation of stiffness degradation in bridge columns is essential in capturing the accurate response of pounding frames subjected to far field ground motion. Finally, it is shown that strength degradation and pounding can result in significant damage to the stiffer frames of the bridge when subjected to large acceleration pulses from near field ground motion records.

Modelling three‐dimensional non‐linear seismic performance of elevated bridges with emphasis on pounding of girders

Unseating of bridge girders/decks during earthquakes is very harmful to the safety and serviceability of bridges. Evidence from recent severe earthquakes indicates that in addition to damage along longitudinal direction, lateral displacement and rotation of bridge girders caused by pounding to adjacent girders can also lead to unseating. To simulate this effect, 3D modelling of the dynamic performance of whole bridge structures, including pounding, is needed strongly. This paper presents a 3D model that is practically suitable to precisely analyse pounding between bridge girders. Experiments have been conducted to verify the proposed pounding model. The 3D non‐linear modelling of steel elevated bridges is also discussed. A general‐purpose dynamic analysis program for bridges, namely dynamic analysis of bridge systems (DABS) has been developed. Seismic analyses on a chosen three‐span steel bridge are conducted for several cases including pounding as a case study. The applicability of the proposed pounding model is illustrated by the computations. The effects of poundings on the response of bridge girders are discussed and the computation results are given.

结构参数对高低墩刚构连续梁桥体系地震响应的影响

地震作用下,相邻主梁间的碰撞会改变桥台-引桥-刚构连续梁桥结构体系的动力响应。为了探究主桥结构形式、墩高、引桥跨数和伸缩缝间距等结构参数对伸缩缝处碰撞效应和桥梁结构地震响应的影响,以某实际桥梁为背景,考虑碰撞能量耗散、桩土相互作用、桥台与台后填土相互作用以及支座和桥墩的非线性行为,采用CSIBridge建立桥台-引桥-刚构连续梁桥结构体系的有限元模型进行碰撞弹塑性动力分析。研究结果表明：不同主桥结构形式的主桥墩受力区别较大,相邻主桥墩高差较大时,选择连续梁桥结构体系更加合理。墩高增加使主引桥间动力差异增大,碰撞效应更加显著,仅对刚构墩受力影响较大。引桥跨数增多和伸缩缝间距增大分别使伸缩缝处碰撞效应增大和减小,碰撞抑制作用的增强和减弱也使得刚构墩内力和变形分别减小和增大,但对于其他桥墩基本无影响。

Experimental and analytical study on pounding reduction of base‐isolated highway bridges using MR dampers

Pounding between adjacent superstructures has been a major cause of highway bridge damage in the past several earthquakes. This paper presents an experimental and analytical study on pounding reduction of highway bridges subjected to earthquake ground motions by using magnetorheological (MR) dampers. An analytical model, which incorporates structural pounding and MR dampers, is developed. A series of shaking table tests on a 1:20 scaled base‐isolated bridge model are performed to investigate the effects of pounding between adjacent superstructures on the dynamics of the structures. Based on the test results, the parameters of the linear and the nonlinear viscoelastic impact models are identified. Performance of the semiactive system for reducing structural pounding is also investigated experimentally, in which the MR dampers are used in conjunction with the proposed control strategy, to verify the effectiveness of the MR dampers. Structural responses are also simulated by using the established analytical model and compared with the shaking table test results. The results show that pounding between adjacent superstructures of the highway bridge significantly increases the structural acceleration responses. For the base‐isolated bridge model considered here, the semiactive control system with MR dampers effectively precludes pounding. Copyright © 2009 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
