However, there exist gaps in the knowledge of seismic behavior and the design provisions for these structures. In order to better understand the seismic behaviors of composite frame systems, eight steel-concrete composite frames were designed. These composite frames were composed of steel-concrete composite beams and concrete filled steel tube columns. The axial compression ratio of column, slenderness ratio and linear stiffness ratio of beam to column were selected as main design parameters. The low reversed cyclic loading tests of composite frame system were carried out. Based on test results, the seismic behaviors of composite frames such as failure mode, hysteresis curve, strength degradation, rigidity degradation, ductility and energy dissipation were studied. Known from the test phenomenon, the main cause of damage is the out-of-plane deformation of steel beam and the yielding destruction of column heel. The hysteretic loops of composite frame appear a spindle shape and no obvious pinch phenomenon. The results demonstrate that this type of composite frame has favorable seismic behaviors. Furthermore, the effects of design parameters on seismic behaviors were also discussed. The results of the experiment show that the different design parameter has different influence rule on seismic behaviors of composite frame.展开更多

ABAQUS is used to establish a detailed 3D finite element(FE) model and analyze the behavior of push-out specimens. The modeling results are in good agreement with the experimental results. Based on parametrical analysis using the validated FE approaches, the effects of important design parameters, such as the diameter, number, length to diameter ratio, and yield strength of studs, concrete strength and steel transverse reinforcement ratio, on the load-slip relationship at the interface of composite beams are discussed. In addition, a simplified approach to model studs is developed using virtual springs with an equivalent stiffness. This approach is demonstrated to be able to predict the load-displacement response and ultimate bearing capacity of steel-concrete composite beams. The predicted results show satisfactory agreement with experimental results from the literature.展开更多

文摘The special columnar jointed structure endows rocks with significant anisotropy,accurately grasping the strength and deformation properties of a columnar jointed rock mass(CJRM)under complex geological conditions is crucial for related engineering safety.Combined with the irregular jointed networks observed in the field,artificial irregular CJRM(ICJRM)samples with various inclination angles were prepared for triaxial tests.The results showed that the increase in confining pressure can enhance the ability of the ICJRM to resist deformation and failure,and reduce the deformation and strength anisotropic degrees.Considering the field stress situation,the engineering parts with an inclination angle of 30°−45°need to be taken seriously.Four typical failure modes were identified,and the sample with an inclination angle of 15°showed the same failure behavior as the field CJRM.Traditional and improved joint factor methods were used to establish empirical relationships for predicting the strength and deformation of CJRM under triaxial stress.Since the improved joint factor method can reflect the unique structure of CJRM,the predictive ability of the empirical relationship based on the improved method is better than that based on the traditional joint factor method.

文摘In the practical slope engineering,the stability of lower sliding mass(region A)with back tensile cracks of the jointed rock slope attracts more attentions,but the upper rock mass(region B)may also be unstable.Therefore,in this study,based on the stepped failure mode of bedding jointed rock slopes,considering the influence of the upper rock mass on the lower stepped sliding mass,the improved failure model for analyzing the interaction force(F_(AB))between two regions is constructed,and the safety factors(F_(S))of two regions and whole region are derived.In addition,this paper proposes a method to determine the existence of F_(AB) using their respective acceleration values(a_(A) and a_(B))when regions A and B are unstable.The influences of key parameters on two regions and the whole region are analyzed.The results show that the variation of the F_(AB) and F_(S) of two regions can be obtained accurately based on the improved failure model.The accuracy of the improved failure model is verified by comparative analysis.The research results can explain the interaction mechanism of two regions and the natural phenomenon of slope failure caused by the development of cracks.

文摘To address the issue of extreme thermal-induced arching in CRTS II slab tracks due to joint damage,an optimized joint repair model was proposed.First,the formula for calculating the safe temperature rise of the track was derived based on the principle of stationary potential energy.Considering interlayer evolution and structural crack propagation,an optimized joint repair model for the track was established and validated.Subsequently,the impact of joint repair on track damage and arch stability under extreme temperatures was studied,and a comprehensive evaluation of the feasibility of joint repair and the evolution of damage after repair was conducted.The results show that after the joint repair,the temperature rise of the initial damage of the track structure can be increased by 11℃.Under the most unfavorable heating load with a superimposed temperature gradient,the maximum stiffness degradation index SDEG in the track structure is reduced by about 81.16%following joint repair.The joint repair process could effectively reduce the deformation of the slab arching under high temperatures,resulting in a reduction of 93.96%in upward arching deformation.After repair,with the damage to interfacing shear strength,the track arch increases by 2.616 mm.
文摘This study investigates the corrosion-assisted fatigue crack growth rate(FCGR)of 16 mm thick AA 7075-T651 friction stir welded(FSW)joints.Compact tension(CT)specimens were extracted from both the base material and FSW joints to evaluate FCGR under varying corrosion exposure durations(0,7,30,60,and 90 days)at a constant stress ratio of 0.5.Microstructural analysis of the welds was conducted using optical and transmission electron microscopy(TEM).Results indicate that the critical stress intensity factor range(ΔK_(cr))of FSW joints is lower than that of the base material,primarily due to precipitate dissolution in the weld zone during the FSW process,as confirmed by TEM analysis.The fatigue life of FSW joints was significantly lower than that of the base material,but with prolonged exposure to seawater corrosion,the gap in fatigue life narrowed.Specimens exposed to seawater for more than 60days exhibited minimal differences in fatigue life between the base material and the FSW joints.This was attributed to the higher corrosion rate of the base material compared to the weld nugget,resulting in the formation of deeper pits that facilitated crack initiation and accelerated fatigue failure.The findings conclude that extended corrosion exposure leads to similar fatigue life and crack growth behaviour in both the base material and FSW joints.SEM and EDX analysis of AA7075-T651 revealed corrosion pits and rust products in initiation zones,ductile striations in growth regions,and secondary cracks with micro voids in fracture zones.FSW joints exhibited ultra-fine grains,smooth ductile fracture in initiation and growth regions,and brittle fracture in the fracture zones under both corroded and uncorroded conditions.
文摘Compared with single-domain unmanned swarms,cross-domain unmanned swarms continue to face new challenges in terms of platform performance and constraints.In this paper,a joint unmanned swarm target assignment and mission trajectory planning method is proposed to meet the requirements of cross-domain unmanned swarm mission planning.Firstly,the different performances of cross-domain heterogeneous platforms and mission requirements of targets are characterised by using a collection of operational resources.Secondly,an algorithmic framework for joint target assignment and mission trajectory planning is proposed,in which the initial planning of the trajectory is performed in the target assignment phase,while the trajectory is further optimised afterwards.Next,the estimation of the distribution algorithms is combined with the genetic algorithm to solve the objective function.Finally,the algorithm is numerically simulated by specific cases.Simulation results indicate that the proposed algorithm can perform effective task assignment and trajectory planning for cross-domain unmanned swarms.Furthermore,the solution performance of the hybrid estimation of distribution algorithm(EDA)-genetic algorithm(GA)algorithm is better than that of GA and EDA.
