独塔双索面自锚式无缝悬索桥的设计与分析

考虑柳青河桥的景观效果和满足河道通航要求,设计采用了独塔双索面自锚式无缝悬索桥,桥型优美轻便,主缆直接锚固在加劲梁梁端,节省了庞大的锚碇结构.由于主跨与边跨跨径比很大,在边跨适当配重的基础上,设计采用了半整体式桥台,利用桥台台身的重量来克服端支座拉力,既解决了拉力支座的问题,同时在该桥台处形成了无缝桥梁.重点介绍了柳青河自锚式无缝悬索桥的结构构造、设计要点及计算分析过程,以期供类似桥梁设计借鉴.

刚性索自锚式悬索桥主缆锚固区局部应力分析

以平顶山建设路立交桥——刚性索自锚式悬索桥为工程实例,分别运用有限元计算程序Midas/Civil和Ansys建立其整体计算模型和边跨主缆锚固区梁段的局部计算模型,对锚固区进行空间局部应力分析,研究其受力状态,得出结论:箱梁绝大部分位置的应力均在规范允许范围内,且主梁压应力储备充足;箱梁主梁梁段切开截面端与顶板交接处的正中心位置顺桥向正应力和最大主拉应力均较大,局部超过规范要求,建议在桥梁设计和施工过程中考虑在边跨顶板中心位置配置压重或顶板纵向预应力钢束,防止箱梁顶板开裂;主缆锚固位置处的最大主压应力较大,锚固位置附近的最大主拉应力超限,需要在锚固位置附近局部加强或改变锚固方式;所有倒角部位在施工时应尽量平顺,避免应力集中。     

顺置式吊杆锚固区受力特性与极限承载力研究

为掌握顺桥向设置的吊杆锚固区在吊杆力作用下的受力特性和极限承载力,以某在建斜拉-自锚式悬索组合体系桥为依托工程,利用ANSYS软件建立壳单元空间有限元模型,对锚固区在最不利荷载作用下的受力性能进行研究;并分别采用线弹性及非线性分析方法对吊杆锚固区极限承载力进行分析,讨论构件的受力情况。结果表明:在最不利荷载作用下,钢锚箱及钢锚梁应力较横隔板应力小;除钢锚梁与横隔板焊接处应力集中现象显著外,各构件应力分布较均匀;各构件顺桥向变形较大。不同极限承载力分析方法表明,此类结构采用壳单元建模进行极限承载力分析时应仅考虑材料非线性。建议在此类结构设计时,对于横隔板刚度不足问题应给予足够重视。

Roll- and pitch-plane coupled hydro-pneumatic suspension

Passive fluidically coupled suspensions have been considered to offer a promising alternative solution to the challenging design of a vehicle suspension system. A theoretical foundation, however, has not been established for fluidically coupled suspension to facilitate its broad applications to various vehicles. The first part of this study investigates the fundamental issues related to feasibility and properties of the passive, full-vehicle interconnected, hydro-pneumatic suspension configurations using both analytical and simulation techniques. Layouts of various interconnected suspension configurations are illustrated based on two novel hydro-pneumatic suspension strut designs, both of which provide a compact design with a considerably large effective working area. A simplified measure, vehicle property index, is proposed to permit a preliminary evaluation of different interconnected suspension configurations using qualitative scaling of the bounce-, roll-, pitch- and warp-mode stiffness properties. Analytical formulations for the properties of unconnected and three selected X-coupled suspension configurations are derived, and simulation results are obtained to illustrate their relative stiffness and damping properties in the bounce, roll, pitch and warp modes. The superior design flexibility feature of the interconnected hydro-pneumatic suspension is also discussed through sensitivity analysis of a design parameter, namely the annular piston area of the strut. The results demonstrate that a full-vehicle interconnected hydro-pneumatic suspension could provide enhanced roll- and pitch-mode stiffness and damping, while retaining the soft bounce- and warp-mode properties. Such an interconnected suspension thus offers considerable potential in realising enhanced decoupling among the different suspension modes.     

An insight into linear quarter car model accuracy

The linear quarter car model is the most widely used suspension system model. A number of authors expressed doubts about the accuracy of the linear quarter car model in predicting the movement of a complex nonlinear suspension system. In this investigation, a quarter car rig, designed to mimic the popular MacPherson strut suspension system, is subject to narrowband excitation at a range of frequencies using a motor driven cam. Linear and nonlinear quarter car simulations of the rig are developed. Both isolated and operational testing techniques are used to characterise the individual suspension system components. Simulations carried out using the linear and nonlinear models are compared to measured data from the suspension test rig at selected excitation frequencies. Results show that the linear quarter car model provides a reasonable approximation of unsprung mass acceleration but significantly overpredicts sprung mass acceleration magnitude. The nonlinear simulation, featuring a trilinear shock absorber model and nonlinear tyre, produces results which are significantly more accurate than linear simulation results. The effect of tyre damping on the nonlinear model is also investigated for narrowband excitation. It is found to reduce the magnitude of unsprung mass acceleration peaks and contribute to an overall improvement in simulation accuracy.     

Actively controlled vehicle suspension with energy regeneration capabilities

The paper presents an innovative dual purpose automotive suspension topology, combining for the first time the active damping qualities with mechanical vibrations power regeneration capabilities. The new configuration consists of a linear generator as an actuator, a power processing stage based on a gyrator operating under sliding mode control and dynamics controllers. The researched design is simple and energetically efficient, enables an accurate force–velocity suspension characteristic control as well as energy regeneration control, with no practical implementation constraints imposed over the theoretical design. Active damping is based on Skyhook suspension control scheme, which enables overcoming the passive damping tradeoff between high- and low-frequency performance, improving both body isolation and the tire's road grip. The system-level design includes configuration of three system operation modes: passive, semi–active or fully active damping, all using the same electro-mechanical infrastructure, and each focusing on different objective: dynamics improvement or power regeneration. Conclusively, the innovative hybrid suspension is theoretically researched, practically designed and analysed, and proven to be feasible as well as profitable in the aspects of power regeneration, vehicle dynamics improvement and human health risks reduction.
