高速铁路下承式大跨度系杆拱桥无碴轨道桥面结构形式的对比研究

针对高速铁路下承式大跨度无碴轨道系杆拱桥,通过有限元分析,对桥面结构采用混凝土板与纵横梁半结合方案和全结合方案的动力特性、稳定性和受力性能进行综合对比研究。研究结果表明:与半结合方案相比,全结合方案桥梁刚度较大,尤其是横向刚度;桥梁动力特性和稳定性也较好;系梁承受的纵向力较小,桥面系参与系梁的第一系统作用较大,混凝土板应力水平整体较高,尤其是在端部节间;纵梁面外弯矩及其对应的面外弯曲变形都较小,横梁面内、面外弯矩及其对应的弯曲变形也都较半结合方案的小。建议半结合方案加强纵横梁交接处的局部构造,尤其是横梁与外纵梁交接处;全结合方案混凝土桥面板宜采用高配筋,特别是端部节间。     

Benthic megafauna communities under the influence of the South Atlantic Central Water intrusion onto the Brazilian SE shelf: A comparison between an upwelling and a non-upwelling ecosystem

The structure and dynamics of the benthic invertebrate megafauna of the Southeastern Brazilian shelf were studied over a 2-year period. Two regions presenting different oceanographic conditions, Ubatuba-SP and Cabo Frio-RJ were compared in terms of biomass, density of organisms and species richness. Two to three 30-min tows were undertaken at each of the stations, located at 40 and 100 m isobath, in a normal transect offshore of both regions. Faunal distributional patterns correlated with water mass dynamics, depth and sediment parameters. In the Cabo Frio region, subjected to a Ekman-driven seasonal coastal upwelling, the impact of the South Atlantic Central Water (SACW) on the inner shelf leads to a change in the benthic communities, with a high dominance of top carnivores such as the crab Portunus spinicarpus and the sea-star Astropecten brasiliensis, which accounted for the larger part of the total biomass. Distinct species associations were found in each of the two regions and the total biomass at Cabo Frio inner shelf was almost twice that of Ubatuba during the 2002 summer, when a marked upwelling was verified. The relationship between megabenthic biomass and input of organic matter to the sea floor during upwelling events is discussed.

Railway Vehicles with Perfect Curving Behaviour Which are Asymptotically Stable at Vanishing Speed

Paper deals with the linear behaviour of a railway vehicle with any arbitrary number of wheelsets, body parts and connecting elements. A vehicle which has both perfect curving properties and asymptotical stability at vanishing speed, has to satisfy a twofold condition, indicated by Wickens in 1978. In the present paper this condition is derived in reliance upon the dimension theorem for linear mappings. How the investigation can be executed in practice, is shown for the case of a two-axled vehicle. At last the behaviour in a transition curve is discussed.     

When are subsidies to trans-European network projects justified?

The trans-European transport network (TEN-T) encompasses the major planned transport infrastructure in Europe, ranging from high speed rail to port infrastructure. Projects in this category are considered priority projects and receive European subsidies; but these have been insufficient to get these projects off the ground. This paper addresses two research questions. First, it sketches the basic economics of cross-boundary infrastructure projects: what pricing and investment policies can we expect, what is the role of through traffic and high fixed costs of infrastructure? Second, it examines briefly what lessons the EU could draw from the experience of other existing federal funding institutions like the US and Germany. These ideas are used to propose a new subsidy scheme for the TEN-T projects.     

Co-operation and competition in international container transport: strategies for ports

This paper focuses on the response of port authorities to the changing market environment in which they operate. It documents the changes taking place in the relationships between port authorities and terminal management companies and considers the strategic issues faced by these groups and other port interests. In particular, it investigates the potential conflicts of interest for a port authority in matters related to the level of competition amongst terminals within a port and the amount of competition amongst ports.     

Marine Stingers: Review of an Under-Recognized Global Coastal Management Issue

Dangerous marine stingers (jellyfish) are an emotive issue in tropical Australia, where they are widely regarded as the number one marine health threat. However, numerous severe and fatal stings have been reported throughout the tropical and temperate seas of the world, indicating that marine stingers are a global health problem. Further, life-threatening jellyfish stings are more frequently reported globally now compared to earlier decades, possibly as a result of improved recognition and reporting, or increased spatial and/or temporal distribution or densities. As stinging incidents may also have significant financial implications (lost tourism revenues and liability settlements), and the treatment of envenomed patients comes at high cost to the taxpayer, this issue is also a management challenge. This article outlines suggested approaches, based largely on Australian experience, for dealing with this under-recognized global coastal management issue.

基于AQWA的旁靠油轮水动力相互作用研究

船舶旁靠系统的水动力响应是一个非常复杂的工程问题,系统中每一个结构的动力响应会受到其他结构的耦合影响。针对两旁靠FPSO和LNG运输船组成的旁靠系泊系统,基于三维势流理论,应用多体水动力学软件AQWA,在考虑两船间水动力相互作用的情况下,计算两旁靠船舶所受到的波浪载荷,并与不考虑两船水动力相互作用的计算结果进行对比分析。结果表明,旁靠系泊系统水动力相互作用是不可忽略的。同时也分析了不同旁靠间距对水动力性能的影响,结果发现旁靠间距只在中高频段时对水动力性能的影响较大。研究结果可为旁靠系统系泊方案的设计和研究提供一定的参考。
