Modeling and solving discrete network design problem with stochastic user equilibrium

In this paper, we address the discrete network design problem, which determines the addition of new roads to existing transportation network to optimize the transportation system performance. Road users are assumed to follow the traffic assignment principle of stochastic user equilibrium. A mixed‐integer nonlinear nonconvex problem is developed to model this discrete network design problem with stochastic user equilibrium. The original problem is relaxed into a convex mixed‐integer nonlinear program, whose solution provides a lower bound of the original problem. The relaxed problem is then embedded into two proposed global optimization solution algorithms to obtain the global optimal solution of the problem. Copyright © 2016 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

A porous cell method for the simulation of fluid-solid interactions

There are many ways of describing a solid,porous or fluid region of the computational domain when solving the Navier-Stokes equations(NSE)for flow motions.Amongst these the porous cell method is one of the most flexible approaches.In this method,a parameter is defined as a ratio of the volume open to water and air in a calculation cell to its cell volume.In the calculation,the same numerical procedure is applied to every cell and no explicit boundary conditions are needed at solid boundaries.The method is used to simulate flow through porous media,around solid bodies and over a moving seabed.The results compare well with experimental data and other numerical results.In our future work the porous cell method will be applied to more complex fluid-solid interaction situations.     

Analysis and Research on the Tunnelling Technology of Compound EPB Shield Machine in High-strength Hard Rocks北大核心CSCD

It's really challenging for shield driving when hard rock partially intrudes into the excavation section of metro tunnels. Abnormal cutter wear is excessive during shield excavation in hard rock and comprehensive perfor⁃ mance of excavation system decreases greatly, resulting in abnormal advancing parameter, small penetration rate and low advance rate. Taking Shenzhen Metro line 9 project as the background, the main difficulties encountered for the compound EPB shield during driving in high-strength granite and the reasons were analyzed, the corresponding countermeasures were presented. EPB shield drove through the hard rock section safely and smoothly attributed to reasonable cutter configuration, in-time cutter replacement and proper advancing parameters. © 2018, Editorial Office of "Modern Tunnelling Technology".

Three Dimensional Numerical Simulation Study on the Tensile Test of the Embedded Components in Segment Joints of Deep Buried Storage and Drainage Shield Tunnels北大核心CSCD

The numerical simulation was carried out based on tensile test of the embedded components in segment joints of the deep buried storage and drainage shield-driven tunnel in Shanghai in order to study the numerical approach for mechanical analysis of segment joints of the tunnel. Using the concrete damage plasticity model and nonlinear springs, the 3D refined numerical model was established, in which the embedded components with complex geometries and the bond-slip behaviors between the concrete and bars were taken into consideration. Three kinds of embedded component models with different degrees of refinement were established and simply loaded. By comparing the calculation results and considering the spent time and the accuracy of calculation, the simplified form of the embedded components used in the overall model was determined. Nonlinear springs between anchor bars and concrete were set in the model in order to simulate the bond-slip behavior between them. In addition, two contrast models were also established using binding constraint and face-face contact constraint between concrete and anchor bars respectively. The three types of models were loaded in accordance with the test conditions. Comparing the results of the numerical calculation with the test results, it is shown that the "nonlinear spring model", which takes the bond-slip behavior into consideration, is more consistent with the test results than the "face to face contact model" and "binding model". And the model also reflects the failure mode very well. It indicates that the three dimensional refined modeling method used in this paper is applicable for similar tensile tests. © 2018, Editorial Office of "Modern Tunnelling Technology".

Contrastive Analysis of Working Face Stability in Cases of Climbing Excavation and Horizontal Excavation北大核心CSCD

Restricted by site and construction period of ancillary structure of metro project, climbing excavation is often adopted. In order to determine tunnel face’s stability, the stabilities of working face in the cases of climbing ex- cavation and horizontal excavation were analyzed by theoretical analysis and numerical simulation. With upperbound limit analysis, the affected scope and positions of failure zone were compared; the position of equivalent strain zone and the law of horizontal displacement changes were studied by simulation analysis. The results show that the scope of failure zone caused by climbing excavation was slightly larger than that by horizontal excavation and the po- sition of affected zone is slightly lower than that by horizontal excavation; the horizontal displacement caused by climbing excavation within a scope of 0-1/3 height of tunnel face is slightly larger than that by horizontal excavation while it is slightly smaller beyond the scope of 0-1/3 height of tunnel face; the maximum horizontal displacements in the cases of climbing and horizontal excavation both occur at the place where is 1/3 height of work face and the de- formation of work face in the case of climbing excavation is not larger than that of horizontal excavation; the work face stabilities are mostly the same in the cases of climbing and horizontal excavation without regard to advanced support, and the work face stability is to be guaranteed with proper advanced support. © 2018, Editorial Office of "Modern Tunnelling Technology".

Seismic Dynamic Response of an Atrium-type Subway Station北大核心CSCD

Atrium-type subway stations have been utilized for multifunctional demands. For natural lighting, the middle parts of slabs are replaced by beams. And to expand space, no columns are set for the 1st floor underground, while flat columns are set for the 2nd floor. These characteristics make the seismic response of the atrium-type subway station differ from the traditional station. In this paper, by a shaking table test of soil-structure 1/30 scale model of the atrium-type subway station, the amplification and attenuation effect of soils to the ground motion, as well as the acceleration and the strain response of the structure are analyzed when the model is subjected to lateral ground motions with different PGA and frequency contents. Subsequently, the seismic dynamic effect on the structural internal force distribution is discussed to improve the seismic design of the atrium-type subway station. © 2018, Editorial Office of "Modern Tunnelling Technology".

Experimental research on dynamic vibration absorber with negative stiffness for longitudinal vibration control of propulsion shafting system北大核心CSCD

［Objectives］In order to control the first longitudinal vibration mode of propulsion shafting systems, a dynamic vibration absorber with disc spring negative stiffness is proposed and its experimental verification carried out. ［Methods］A test bench is established for the propulsion shafting system containing a dynamic vibration absorber with negative stiffness. According to the first longitudinal vibration mode of the shafting, a dynamic vibration absorber with negative stiffness integrated into the thrust bearing is developed. Vibration transmission tests under different rotational speeds, static thrusts and negative stiffness are then carried out, and acceleration response data on the thrust bearing foundation and shafting is obtained. ［Results ］ The results show that the developed dynamic vibration absorber with negative stiffness can achieve vibration suppression of 7.8 dB for the thrust bearing foundation in the first longitudinal mode of the propulsion shafting with a mass ratio of 1.6%, and the vibration control effect of the negative stiffness dynamic vibration absorber is maintained at 3.3 dB when the natural frequency changes by 5% and the thrust changes by 40%. The vibration response on the thrust bearing foundation and shafting do not deteriorate even at non-optimal negative stiffness. ［Conclusions］This study shows that a dynamic vibration absorber with negative stiffness can effectively suppress vibration transmission at the first longitudinal mode of a shafting under different rotational speeds. © 2023 Authors.
