JING Guoqing, DING Dong
Abstract:Research purposes: The problem of snow flight obsesses high speed railway in cold region, where train structure and ballast bed cross section are important factors. In the paper, the k-epsilon Realizable viscous model is adopted together with sliding mesh technique, and CRH3 train-ballast bed numerical model is used to investigate aerodynamic effects, which reveals the mechanism of snow flight and provides theoretical basis for optimizing ballast bed cross section and preventing snow flight.  Research conclusions: (1) Train head, tail and bogie area result in large fluctuation of wind pressure and speed, where the probability of snow flight is high. (2) There is large wind pressure and speed in the center of ballast bed, and snow blocks are easy to move and splash; the value of wind pressure decreases from center to side, and snow blocks are prone to move and cumulate in crib. (3) The key aerodynamic factor of snow flight is train speed. The value and fluctuation of wind pressure become larger with train speed increasing. When the train speed is above 250 km/h and increased by 100 km/h, the peak value of wind pressure is double. (4) The wind pressure increases with shoulder height, whose height of the shoulder ballast is from 0 mm to 150 mm at train speed 350 km/h, and the peak value of negative pressure increases by 9.0%. With lateral resistance value reach requirements, the shoulder height should be reduced. (5) The research conclusions can provide basis and reference for prevention and control of snow flight. 

Correspondingly, the seismic problem of high-speed railway has attracted more and more scholars' attention. However, the general seismic isolation devices can not meet the strict requirements of high-speed railway seismic safety. Therefore, a new seismic isolation system is proposed for the simple supported girder bridge of high-speed railway under rare earthquake. The dynamic design parameters of the new seismic isolation system are optimized to make the new seismic isolation system better serve the high-speed railway bridges.  Research conclusions:(1) In the feasible region of LRB performance parameters, the optimal solution satisfying the constraint condition of the model is obtained. The optimization design improves the control effect of the new isolation system and reduces the production cost.(2)The new seismic isolation system has good control effects on the seismic responses of high speed railway simple supported girder bridge under strong earthquake. The new seismic isolation system can minimize the bending moment at the bottom of the pier on the basis of reducing the longitudinal displacement at the end of the beam and ensuring that the pier does not yield. (3) In the seismic isolation design of high speed railway simple supported girder bridge, the longitudinal displacement at the end of the beam and the shear force of the pier are the main constraint conditions, which play an important role in the selection of the performance optimum parameters of the new seismic isolation system.

Abstract:Research purposes: The ground loss caused by tunnel excavation in the uneven ground may lead to the settlement or uplift of the ground surface which could further result in the uneven settlement of the stratum and the buildings above. To ensure the safety of the buildings, it is necessary to calculate and analyze the vertical displacement of the ground surface caused by the tunnel excavation.  Research conclusions: (1) Based on the stochastic medium theory, this paper demonstrates the feasibility of settlement prediction in the bias terrain, and derives the ground settlement formula of the shallow bias shield tunnel excavation. (2)Through theoretical derivation, the convergence region U′-V′ needed in the formula are fixed. (3) To simplify the calculation, polar coordinates are used to optimize the formula. (4)When the slope gradient is greater than 45 degrees, the rate of displacement is accelerated obviously. And there is a linear relationship between the maximum vertical displacement of the ground and the ratio of the depth to radius of the settlement of excavation unit. (5) When the vertical distance from the tunnel axis to the slope surface is less than 3.5 R, the vertical displacement of the surface is accelerated. The site where the distance is longer than 3.5R is much better for tunnel excavation. (6)The research  results can provide a new way for the predicition of surface displacement of shallow tunnel excavation, and provide technical support for surface displacement control. 

Abstract:Research purposes: Aiming at the problem of structural vibration of simply supported box girder bridge when the train passes the bridge,the previous simulation model that was established by SIMPACK is summarized and analyzed,and a wheel rail coupling simulation method is proposed based on the multi-body dynamics and finite element method. According to this method, a vehicle bridge coupled vibration analysis model is established, and the structural vibration characteristics of box girders are analyzed from two aspects of time domain and frequency domain, in order to provide a reference for the vibration reduction design of urban rail elevated box girder bridge. Research conclusions: (1) When the train passes at the speed of 40 km/h, the vertical vibration of wing is the strongest, the second is the web, and the vertical vibration of the box girder is more violent than the transverse vibration. (2) The increase of the train speed will not only increase the deformation of the box girder, but also cause the box girder to be subjected to greater impact energy. (3) When the vehicle passes through the bridge at low speed, the low frequency mode below 40 Hz contributes greatly to the vibration of the box girder; When the vehicle passes through the bridge at high speed, the first order mode contributes most to the vibration of the box girder,and the increase of vehicle speed can excite the higher order modal of box girder, which makes the local vibration of box beam strengthen. (4) The wheel rail coupling method is not only suitable for the coupling between vehicle and bridge, but also for the coupling between vehicle and the earth or other track structures.
