Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of fatigue life prediction of arch bridge hangers, and in particular to a method for calculating the corrosion fatigue life of arch bridge hangers under vehicle-bridge coupling. Background Art

[0002] With the rapid development of high-speed railway construction in my country, long-span bridges have become the preferred option for overcoming terrain obstacles such as valleys, rivers, and oceans. In this context, arch bridges, due to their simple structure, clear load distribution, cost-effectiveness, aesthetic appeal, and reduced construction risks, have become a popular choice for long-span bridge design and construction. Furthermore, to embody the concept of sustainable development and the requirements of cost savings and environmental protection, more and more arch bridges are being used in our daily lives. During their operational life, the suspenders of arch bridges are subjected to tensile stresses and environmental corrosion from various cyclic loads. Suspenders are designed using high-strength steel wire with excellent fatigue performance and employ anti-corrosion measures such as galvanizing, heat shrink tubing, and cement slurry to prevent environmental corrosion. However, suspender damage includes heat shrink tubing failure, internal steel wire corrosion, and cracking. Long-term studies have shown that corrosion and fatigue are the main causes of suspender failure during their service life. Therefore, in addition to strengthening management measures such as design, construction, and maintenance, improving the service reliability of suspenders, conducting accurate safety risk analysis, and assessing the corrosion fatigue life of suspenders are essential considerations to ensure the safe operation of arch bridges.

[0003] Invention patent CN117610138A discloses a method for predicting the fatigue life of arch bridge hangers under the action of real-time traffic flow. Although a local standard fatigue model representing vehicles passing through the arch bridge and a bridge model of the hanger arch bridge are established, and the stress spectrum of each hanger of the arch bridge is obtained after loading the vehicle load, and the fatigue life of the hanger is calculated, the influence of corrosion factors on the hanger is not considered in the calculation of the hanger life. The high-strength steel wire used in the hanger of the arch bridge is a material that is very sensitive to corrosion. During the use of the hanger, long-term erosion by rain and humid air can easily cause corrosion damage to the hanger. Under normal traffic conditions, the hanger will produce a coupling effect of corrosion and fatigue, thereby accelerating the degradation of the hanger performance. The calculation method proposed in this invention patent does not consider the influence of corrosion factors on the hanger, which obviously has certain inaccuracies in the study of the hanger life.

[0004] Invention patent CN116562004A discloses a method for calculating the fatigue life of a suspender under a corrosion fatigue coupling state. The method takes into account the relationship between the fatigue load stress amplitude, the critical rust pit depth for the initiation of suspender cracks, the critical size of failure fracture, the environmental corrosion factors of chloride ion concentration, pH value, temperature, rust pit depth, and the critical size of failure fracture, and the number of fatigue cycles under the corrosion fatigue coupling state. The relationship is corrected through corrosion experiments, and the fatigue life of the suspender from pitting initiation to crack propagation is obtained. The life of the suspender from crack propagation to fracture is then obtained through the Paris law and the addition of corrosion influence. Although the calculation method takes into account the influence of corrosion factors on the suspender life, it does not take into account the actual operation of the arch bridge suspender, and does not reflect the stress amplitude of the suspender under the vehicle-bridge coupling. The calculation method proposed in this invention patent needs to be combined with the actual operation of the arch bridge to accurately calculate the life of the suspender. Summary of the Invention

[0051] like Figure 2-Figure 15 As shown, the present invention is further illustrated below by describing the specific process of the embodiment of the present invention.

[0052] The arch bridge mentioned in this embodiment is a bottom-supported steel tube concrete arch bridge with a main span of 180m. The main beam adopts a single-box double-chamber, variable-height, straight-web box-section beam. The beam height at the center support of the main beam is 11m, and the lower edge of the beam bottom changes according to a quadratic parabola. For the arch ribs, the arch bridge adopts a vertical parallel steel tube concrete dumbbell arch structure, which starts from the bridge deck. The arch ribs adopt a quadratic parabola, with a center distance of 11.9m between the two arch ribs. The calculated span is 180m, and the rise-span ratio is 1:5. C55 self-compacting shrinkage-compensating concrete is poured into the arch rib steel tube and the abdominal cavity. Based on this, a three-dimensional finite element model of the arch bridge is established, as shown in the figure. Figure 2 shown.

[0053] The hangers are made of whole bundles of extruded steel strands with a tensile strength of no less than 1860MPa and a fatigue stress amplitude of 250MPa. Each hanger is composed of 12 steel wires with a diameter of 15.2mm. The hangers are evenly distributed along the longitudinal direction of the bridge. There are 36 sets of longitudinal double hangers in the whole bridge with a spacing of 9m. The hangers on both sides of the arch bridge are 13.5m away from the arch foot. The hangers are numbered D1-D18. Figure 3 shown.

[0054] In this embodiment, the train speed is 350 km / h and the train model is CRH3A. The train load is calculated by taking the wavelength and the rise as: , The train load spectrum is generated according to formula (1), formula (2), and formula (3), as follows: Figure 5 shown.

[0055] The train load is loaded into the three-dimensional finite element model of the arch bridge, and the train passing through the arch bridge is simulated and analyzed; the eight-section high-speed train is simplified into thirty-two concentrated forces moving on the arch bridge to simulate the train crossing the bridge. The simplified train load model in this embodiment is as follows Figure 4 shown.

[0056] The stress time history curve of the suspender rod when a single train passes through the arch bridge in this embodiment is analyzed and output by general finite element software. The rain flow counting method program is written on the Matlab platform to convert the stress time history curve of the suspender rod when a single train passes through the arch bridge in this embodiment into a fatigue stress histogram, as shown in FIG. Figure 6-Figure 14 shown.

[0057] According to formula (4), the variable stress amplitude and the number of variable stress amplitude cycles of the arch bridge hanger in this embodiment are calculated to obtain the equivalent stress of the arch bridge hanger, as shown in the following example: Figure 15 shown.

[0058] According to formula (5), the shape factor of the hanger crack in this embodiment is calculated as , .

[0059] According to formula (6), the initial crack size of the hanger in this embodiment is calculated as follows: , .

[0060] According to formula (8), the adjacent crack size of the hanger in this embodiment is calculated as follows: The average fracture toughness of the suspension wire in this embodiment is , the value is 61.4 , the adjacent crack size of the suspender in this embodiment is As shown in Table 1: Table 1 Size of adjacent cracks in the suspender rod

[0061] According to formula (9)-formula (12), the crack propagation corrosion acceleration factor of the hanger in this embodiment is calculated as follows: , as shown in Table 2: Table 2 Cracking corrosion acceleration factor of boom

[0062] According to formula (13), the first stage corrosion fatigue life of the boom in this embodiment is calculated as In this embodiment, the initial pit size of the boom is , arch bridge hanger material constant , .

[0063] According to formula (14), the second stage corrosion fatigue life of the boom in this embodiment is calculated as , the long crack fatigue coefficient in this embodiment is , long crack fatigue index , the corrosion fatigue life of the arch bridge hanger is shown in Table 3: Table 3 Corrosion fatigue life of arch bridge hangers

[0064] As shown in Table 3, suspenders D1, D18, D5, and D14 exhibited long corrosion fatigue lives, while suspenders D2 and D17, located on either side of the arch bridge, exhibited the shortest corrosion fatigue lives and are the weakest parts of the arch bridge. Therefore, in actual operational management, suspenders D2 and D17 must be prioritized for monitoring and maintenance. Based on the actual needs of high-speed rail operations, scientific and reasonable maintenance plans and emergency response plans should be developed to ensure rapid response and proper handling in the event of emergencies. By implementing these measures, we can effectively reduce the risk level of the arch bridge structure and ensure the safe and smooth operation of the high-speed rail.
