Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the fields of bridge engineering and disaster prevention engineering, and particularly relates to an aerodynamic structure for suppressing the vortex-induced vibration of a water conveyance pipeline bridge. Background Art

[0003] The water conveyance pipeline bridge generally belongs to a narrow bridge according to its structural characteristics and is a flexible structure, which is easily affected by wind. In particular, the water conveyance pipe supported above the main beam section will blunt the aerodynamic shape of the main beam section, resulting in more obvious and complex shedding of vortices in the flow around the main beam surface under wind load. In the early years, the span of the water conveyance pipeline bridge was small, the influence of air flow on the bridge was not significant, and the requirement for the wind resistance stability of the bridge was not high. Therefore, there was less research on the aerodynamic measures for the vortex-induced vibration of the water conveyance pipeline bridge, resulting in rare optimization of the aerodynamic structure for suppressing the vortex-induced vibration of the water conveyance pipeline bridge, especially for large-span water conveyance pipeline bridges, in the prior art. With the increase of the span of the water conveyance pipeline bridge nowadays, the influence of air flow on the bridge becomes more significant. In particular, the vortex-induced vibration response of large-span water conveyance pipeline bridges is also more significant. Large-amplitude vortex-induced vibration will accelerate the fatigue of bridge components and thus affect the operation safety of the bridge.
