This invention discloses a finite element simulation method and system for a suspension bridge tower top saddle. The method includes: collecting multiple types of parameters; iteratively solving for tangential and normal forces based on an initial tangential stiffness matrix; calculating the actual contact friction coefficient based on the coupling relationship between temperature and contact normal pressure; calculating a tangential correction coefficient based on the actual contact friction coefficient, the ratio of tangential to normal forces, and the linkage relationship between the saddle geometric parameters; dynamically adjusting the tangential stiffness matrix based on the correction coefficient, the saddle pre-offset, and the synergistic relationship between cable stress; constructing a finite element model and simulating it; and iteratively optimizing until convergence. The system corresponds to the modules described above. This invention optimizes simulation accuracy through multi-factor coupling and linkage, adapting to complex working conditions and providing reliable support for the design and construction of suspension bridges.

The application discloses a fin effect clamp jaw force-deformation theoretical modeling method based on a co-rotation model, decomposes a fin effect clamp jaw structure into a plurality of beam units, decouples local deformation and rigid body motion of each beam unit through co-rotation theoretical modeling, respectively establishes an axial deformation model and a rotational deformation model, and introduces an effective length correction coefficient to consider the influence of physical hinge connection; a tangent stiffness matrix of the beam unit is constructed and assembled into a global tangent stiffness matrix; a Newton-Raphson iteration method is used to realize force balance solving of a load increment step, and a global force-displacement relationship is constructed; and through adjustment of a global node force vector, various planar load scenarios such as single-point, multi-point and distributed load are adapted. The application breaks through the limitation of small deformation assumption, accurately represents large deformation behavior, improves the calculation efficiency by hundreds of times compared with finite elements, controls the average error within 6%, can quantize the influence of structural parameters such as connection type, beam quantity, beam inclination angle and top angle, and provides a theoretical basis for fin effect clamp jaw engineering design.
