计及导向摆臂约束的重型货车驾驶室俯仰平面动力学模型

传统的重型货车驾驶室俯仰平面动力学模型没有考虑悬置导向机构的影响,仅能粗略计算驾驶室垂向和俯仰响应,无法计算驾驶室质心的纵向振动特性,因而其仿真精度较低,且在实际工程应用中受到了限制.为提高模型精度并拓宽其工程应用范围,创建了考虑导向摆臂约束作用的驾驶室俯仰平面动力学模型,分析了摆臂导向机构的约束特性.在此基础上,通过...     

Cost-effectiveness of reductions in greenhouse gas emissions from High-Speed Rail and urban transportation projects in California

A rising trend in state and federal transportation finance is to invest capital dollars into projects which reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. However, a key metric for comparing projects, the cost-effectiveness of GHG emissions reductions, is highly dependent on the cost-benefit methodology employed in the analysis. Our analysis comparing California High-Speed Rail and three urban transportation projects shows how four different accounting framings bring wide variations in cost per metric tonne of GHG emissions reduced. In our analysis, life-cycle GHG emissions are joined with full cost accounting to better understand the benefits of cap-and-trade investments. Considering only public subsidy for capital, none of the projects appear to be a cost-effective means to reduce GHG emissions (i.e., relative to the current price of GHG emissions in California’s cap-and-trade program at $12.21 per tonne). However, after adjusting for the change in private costs users incur when switching from the counterfactual mode (automobile or aircraft) to the mode enabled by the project, all investments appear to reduce GHG emissions at a net savings to the public. Policy and decision-makers who consider only the capital cost of new transportation projects can be expected to incorrectly assess alternatives and indirect benefits (i.e., how travelers adapt to the new mass transit alternative) should be included in decision-making processes.

基于混合有限元法的钢箱拱相关稳定分析

针对薄壁结构提出了一种混合有限元方法,对结构关心的部位采用板壳单元模拟,其他部位采用杆系单元模拟,根据平截面假定推导了2种单元在交界面处的约束方程,由此建立整体混合有限元模型。通过算例验证了该方法的可靠性,可以计算薄壁结构的整体稳定、局部稳定和整体局部相关稳定。用该方法对某座刚构-单肋钢箱系杆拱组合桥梁进行特征值和弹塑性稳定分析,得到了相应的稳定系数和失稳模态。实例显示,该方法既可以弥补梁单元模型无法计算构件局部屈曲的不足,又可克服局部板壳模型无法准确模拟其整体边界条件及工作环境的缺点,还可以避免全结构板壳模型产生过多单元数量和庞大结构刚度矩阵的弊端,计算可靠性和计算效率大大提高。     

约束可松弛的网络绿波模型

为解决区域交通信号协调控制领域中常规网络绿波模型可行域窄或无解的问题,提出了约束可松弛的网络绿波模型。应用混合整数线性规划方法构建模型,以所有路段双向绿波带宽加权和最大为优化目标,利用约束松弛方法,将干线约束和网络外圈闭环约束转变为可松弛的不等式约束。模型针对每条路段引入了0~1二元变量,表示路段的绿波是否被打断。通过模型求解,获得网络中必要的松弛路段,并打断相应的路段绿波,去除外圈闭环约束,以扩大可行域并找到最优解。算例对不同控制方案下提出的模型和其他绿波模型的绿波优化结果进行比较分析。算例显示,当网络各个交叉口采用同一化控制方案时,易于在不打断任何路段绿波的条件下找到最优解。此时,所提出的模型的解和常规网络绿波模型的解等价。当网络各交叉口采取差异化控制方案时,常规网络绿波模型无可行解,Gartner网络绿波模型仅获得非最优的可行解,而所提出的模型能够获得全局最优解。算例中只有1条路段的绿波被打断,而网络的其他路段均获得有效绿波带,且任意相交的干线绿波能够合理协调。算例优化结果表明：所提出的模型优于常规网络绿波模型和Gartner网络绿波模型,更适合复杂的城市交通网络信号优化设计。

Breakthrough innovations in intermodal freight transport

Breakthrough innovations, whether technological, organizational or both, are a necessity if the market share of intermodal freight transport is to expand. The main growth potential lies in the markets for flows over short distances, for perishable and high-value commodities, for small consignments, and for flows that demand speed, reliability and flexibility. It will take radical innovations to produce a breakthrough in the modal split and allow these new markets to be conquered. This special issue is based on papers presented at an international conference on freight transport automation and multimodality, held in Delft in May 2002, that are illustrative of the direction of breakthrough research and development (R&D) aimed at increasing the market share for intermodal transport.
