Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of bridge engineering, and in particular relates to a temperature fatigue load model of a flangeless steel box girder bridge. Background Art
[0002] Flanged steel box girder bridges have been used to some extent in engineering. Their temperature field distribution characteristics under solar radiation are quite different from those of steel box girder bridges with flanging plates. The temperature field distribution of the flanged steel box girder cross section is highly nonlinear, resulting in large temperature self-stresses within the cross section. As the temperature alternates between day and night, the steel box girder cross section will experience periodic temperature fatigue stresses, contributing to the cumulative fatigue damage of the structure. Currently, there are few reports on the research of temperature gradient fatigue load models for flanged steel box girder bridges at home and abroad, and there are no relevant provisions in the design specifications. Therefore, it is necessary to establish a temperature gradient fatigue load model for flanged steel box girder bridges based on long-term temperature field monitoring data of flanged steel box girder bridges, using the Latin hypercube sampling method and the damage equivalence principle, to provide a technical basis for their fatigue resistance design and evaluation.

[0055] Test 1
[0056] In order to verify the effect of the thermal fatigue load model of the steel box girder bridge without flange, the inventors arranged vertical temperature sensors on the Taiping Waterway Bridge in Dongguan City, Guangdong Province and conducted long-term temperature field monitoring. Figure 3 The specific test process is as follows:
[0057] 1. Long-term monitoring instruments
[0058] The monitoring instrument is a 32-channel DH2002 temperature acquisition module produced in Taizhou, Jiangsu. The temperature acquisition system is a PHM long-term temperature monitoring system produced in Taizhou, Jiangsu. The temperature measurement point uses a three-wire Pt100 sensor.
[0059] 2. Temperature measurement point arrangement
[0060] The temperature measuring points are arranged on the top plate, bottom plate and web of the flangeless steel box girder bridge. The coordinate system is established with the center of the flangeless steel box girder bottom plate as the coordinate origin. A total of 12 measuring points are arranged vertically. The vertical distance from the lower surface of the flangeless steel box girder top plate is expressed as y. The positions of different measuring points are recorded as 0.00m, 0.60m, 1.60m, 2.10m, 2.60m, 3.10m, 3.40m, 3.50m, 3.60m, 3.70m, 3.75m and 3.80m respectively. The measuring point arrangement scheme is as follows: Figure 4 As shown, the acquisition interval is 5 minutes, and the temperature history obtained by monitoring is T te (y,t).
[0061] 3. Analysis of the effect of vertical temperature fatigue load model
[0062] Taking the bottom plate butt weld of a steel box girder bridge without flange as an example, the temperature stress history σ is calculated based on the temperature monitoring data as follows: te (y,t), the temperature history curve is as follows Figure 5 As shown in the figure, the temperature stress amplitude cycle count is performed using the rain flow counting method to obtain the stress amplitude histogram. The results are shown in Figure 6 The equivalent fatigue stress was calculated based on the measured results, and the result was 9.08MPa.
[0063]
[0064] Where σ te (y,t) is the stress history of the steel box girder section, E s is the elastic modulus of steel, α s is the thermal expansion coefficient of steel, A is the cross-sectional area of the steel box girder without flange, I is the moment of inertia of the steel box girder without flange, in this case E s 206GPa, α s 1.1×10 -5 ℃ -1 .
[0065] The vertical temperature gradient fatigue load model is used to construct the temperature stress history and perform temperature stress amplitude analysis. The beam height h is 3.8m, the top plate width B is 16.5m, the bottom plate width is 12.25m, and the design service life N is 2.5m. d For a period of 100 years, the equivalent fatigue stress is calculated as follows:
[0066] σ eq (y) = α × E × T(y)
[0067] Where α is the thermal expansion coefficient of steel and E is the elastic modulus of steel. In this example,
[0068] E s =2.06×10 5 MPa, α s =1.1×10 -5 ℃ -1 .
[0069] The equivalent thermal fatigue stress is 9.10 MPa, which is basically consistent with the measured results, indicating that the thermal fatigue load model of the flangeless steel box girder bridge has a good effect.
