1 Experimental Research on the Effect of Repeated Drying-wetting Cycles on the Mechanical Properties of Remolded Unsaturated Loess
MA Xuening, ZHANG Yuqin, ZHANG Peiyun, WANG Xu
Research purposes:Under the action of the repeated cycles of rainfall and evaporation, the water and gas state in shallow layers are in dynamic variation, which will have an irreversible effect on the mechanical properties of soil. In this paper, the SWCC curve test and triaxial test of remolded unsaturated loess after different times of dry-wet cycle were carried out. The effects of dry-wet cycle on water-holding capacity, strength and deformation characteristics of unsaturated loess were studied.
Research conclusions:(1) There is an obvious hysteretic phenomenon for the soil-water characteristic curve of unsaturated loess, which is gradually diminished with the increase of the times of dry-wet cycle. (2) The more suitable SWCC empirical model for unsaturated loess is VG model, and then the SWCC prediction models for loess under different dry-wet cycle times are established based on the VG model. (3) The stress-strain curve profiles are transformed from the strain hardening type to the strain softening type due to wet-dry cycle, the initial shear stiffness after wet-dry cycle is larger than that of the initial specimens, nevertheless, the failure strength is smaller. (4) With the increase of dry-wet cycle times, the effective cohesion c′,effective friction angle φ′and the suction friction angle φb of unsaturated loess are all decreased gradually. By comparison, the dry-wet cycle has the most effect on the effective cohesion, followed by effective friction angle, and the suction angle is affected least. (5) The research results can provide a reference for the selection of strength parameters in slope engineering design and reinforcement in loess area.

WANG Rui, HU Zhiping, WANG Lei, BAI Lan, ZHAO Zhenrong
Research purposes:Field test is a significance way describing the dynamic response of subgrade under moving train loading. In order to obtain the dynamic stress distribution in the embankment at loess region, the field test was carried out with a heavy haul train passing through, and the characteristics of the dynamic stress curve and its evolution rule were discussed. Additionally, the long-term settlement of embankment was predicted.
Research conclusions:(1) The waveform of dynamic stress could be classified into three types, i.e. bimodal type, sine type and deflected sine type. Moreover, the two loading patterns of dynamic triaxial test were also proposed, i.e. "short intermission + sudden transition" pattern and "continuous loading + gentle transition" pattern. (2) The ratio of peak dynamic stress versus axial weight under various working conditions is within a specific envelope range. Boundaries of the envelope range could be defined by exponential function. (3) During the 50 years of operation, the dynamic settlement of embankment could not exceed 45 mm in the present study. (4) The research results can provide reference for the service status study of railway embankment under moving train loading.

YUE Zurun, JIE Shaolong
Research purposes:In China, the subgrade of high-speed railway is widely distributed across soft soil, and due to constructions, sealing measures, micro-geomorphologic drainage and other reasons, it is easy to cause the subgrade to soften, produce settlement diseases, and reduce the operation benefits of high-speed railway. Therefore, in the courses of grouting reinforcement and renovation of the subgrade, in order to avoid the track geometry dimension exceeding the limits, it is necessary to construct a high-precision, real-time online line smoothness monitoring technology to provide technical support for grouting reinforcement of high-speed railway subgrade under operating conditions.

(2) Indoor wind tunnel test and field test verify the safety and applicability of the micro precision prism installed on the rail waist and the side of the rail plate, which does not affect the normal operation of the high-speed trains. (3) The energy consumption tests of the automatic monitoring system show that the combination of portable power source and Internet of Things technology can realize automatic continuous monitoring during the grouting reinforcement process of high-speed railway subgrade, and its accuracy, operability and stability can meet the requirements of operation lines. (4) This technology in this paper has reference values in other similar operating conditions of high-speed railway.

LV Qianqian
Research purposes:The high speed operation of maglev train can cause temperature increment of low vacuum pipe, which makes the temperature stress become an assignable structure load. So it is necessary to carry out experiment about structure temperature stress to determine the feasibility of the structure. At the same time, the temperature stress analysis method also needs to be studied based on the small size resistance strain gauge. In this paper, the test platform of low vacuum model pipeline structure was set up for the experimental study, and the temperature stress analysis method was discussed based on the data directly observed by resistance strain gauge.
Research conclusions:(1)The actual deformation of measured structure, thermal expansion coefficient and temperature coefficient of resistance strain gauge codetermine the resistance strain gauge reading under temperature load.(2)When the temperature of pipe inner wall is above 50 ℃, the constraining force around the outer wall circumference are in strong-weak cycles. When the inner wall temperature reaches 60 ℃, the temperature tensile stress reaches about 5 MPa, which needs to be pay more attention to.(3)The strain correction formula and the stress calculation formula can provide the basis for the temperature stress analysis based on the strain gauge observation data. (4)The experimental results can provide reference for pipe selection and temperature control of low vacuum pipeline transportation system.

GAO Jianmin, JIN Zhongkai, LAI Sicheng
Research purposes:To investigate the influence of temperature gradient loads on the connection between mortar layer and track slab, a finite element model including a cohesion model between layers of CRTS Ⅱ slab ballastless track was established. The influence of positive and negative temperature gradient loads on the initiation and development of mortar layer gap and the effect of them on track deformations were analyzed. The difference between the two kinds of temperature gradient loads on interlayer damage was compared.
Research conclusions:(1) The damage area and deformations of CRTS Ⅱ slab ballastless track increase with the increase of temperature gradient loads. The interlaminar damage caused by negative temperature gradient loads are more serious than that caused by positive ones. (2) When the temperature gradient load is in the range of -10 ~20 ℃/m, it has little effect on the interlaminar damage. (3) Under the same temperature gradient loads, the deformation of track slab is greater than that of mortar layer. Under the positive temperature gradient load, the track structure deformation along the slab edge is greater than that along the slab middle. However, under the negative temperature gradient load, the difference is not significant. (4) The research results can provide theoretical reference for the long-term service performance analysis and maintenance of CRTS Ⅱ slab track of high-speed railways.

LU Wenliang, PI Fuyan, CHEN Liangjiang, ZHOU Yongzheng
Research purposes:When the main span length of kilometer level railway suspension bridge exceeds the maximum train formation length of the railway line, it is necessary to study the reasonable train loading length because the loading mode of the full bridge loaded by train load is not conformity with the actual train load during the service period of the bridge. A railway suspension bridge under construction is taken as the research object, the influence lines of internal force and displacement of the main components are calculated by finite element method. Based on the actual train length, the influence of train loading length on the force characteristics of each component is studied.
Research conclusions:(1) The internal force and displacement influence lines of main cables, suspender and main towers are all positive or negative within the range of main span; The positive length of main truss and lateral bracing internal force influence line and the positive length of the stiffness beam displacement influence line are about half of the length of the main span; The internal force influence line values of sway bracing and bridge decking have peaks in about five inter-section ranges near them. (2) With the increase of the loading length of the train, the increase range of internal forces and displacements of members decreases gradually. (3) Considering the actual train length and the variation rule of stress characteristics of members with the loading length, it is suggested that the train load loading length of suspension bridges should be 550 m. (4) The research results can provide guidance for theoretical research and engineering design of kilometer level suspension bridge.

Research purposes:In order to effectively use the main beam of trough girder to provide wind-retaining effect, prefabricated simply supported trough girders are widely used in 100-kilometre wind area of Lanzhou-Urumqi high speed railway in Xinjiang. Through bending static load test, transverse static load test in floor and driving test of EMU, bending rigidity, crack resistance, transverse tensile strain, natural frequency, dynamic coefficient, dynamic gain, rotating angle, amplitude, vibration acceleration of trough girder were analyzed, and the static and dynamic performance of trough girder was verified, to provide basis for subsequent design optimization.
Research conclusions:(1) In order to simulate the bending moment and torque of the mid-span section of trough girder synchronously in bending static load test, the method of the same longitudinal loads and different transverse loads at the loading points of webs on both sides can be adopted. (2) When the section or load of trough girder is asymmetric, the deflection of the webs on both sides can be converted to the centroid of the section to obtain the vertical deformation caused by the pure bending of the structure. (3) The bending rigidity and deflection and span ratio of trough girder under static and live load are two different values. (4) The actual bending rigidity of trough girder is greater than the design rigidity, and the crack resistance meets requirements in codes. The bottom plate is safe under the vertical load. (5) Under the load of EMU test train, the dynamic performance of trough girder meets the requirements of related acceptance standards for EMU running at 250 km/h and below. (6) The research results can provide reference for design optimization and related experimental study of trough girder.

HUANG Fuyun, ZHOU Zhiming, SONG Dadong, YAN Aiguo, ZHANG Feng
Research purposes:Semi-integral abutment jointless bridge (SAJB) is a new type of bridge structure. Due to the rigid connection of main girder and abutment, the main girder will induce the bridge abutment to undergo reciprocating displacement along the longitudinal bridge direction, which results the changes of soil resistance behind the abutment under the long-term effects of diurnal and seasonal ambient temperature. In order to study the distribution law of the soil resistance behind the abutment and the influence of the medium long-term ambient temperature on it, a quasi-static test of the semi-integral abutment-soil interaction was carried out under medium and long-term ambient temperature.
Research conclusions:(1) The soil resistance with the ambient temperature rises rapidly in the 1st to 6th middle period (the first warming interval from spring to summer), then decrease in the 6th to 16th middle period (the period from summer to summer). In the 16th to 20th middle period (the second warming interval from winter to spring), it starts to increase again, but the increase rate is slightly slow compared to the first warming interval. (2) The soil resistance along the buried depth increases firstly until reaching the maximum at the buried depth of 0.8h, and then decreases under the medium long-term ambient temperature. (3) The law of soil resistance along longitudinal direction in each period is that in the area near the abutment, the soil resistance decreases rapidly; while in the area far away from the abutment, the soil resistance decreases slowly to 0 at the position 1.0h away from the abutment. (4) After a large period of ambient temperature, the soil resistance behind the abutment has a significant cumulative increasing effect, and its cumulative effect has a strong correlation with the longitudinal position and vertical depth of the soil. (5) The research results can provide references for the design of semi-integral bridges and the formulation of related specifications.

Research purposes:The moving formwork cast-in-situ box girder construction technique has been applied to many projects at home and abroad. At present, it is mainly the single-width moving formwork. In the case of cast-in-situ box girder with double width and small spacing, ordinary conventional single-width moving formwork construction is limited by the beam width, in the construction of the second picture box girder, the formwork cannot be moved longitudinally, and the use scope is limited. Therefore, through the research on the construction technology of the 50 m double-width cast-in-place box girder of Lingkun super bridge of Wenzhou Railway Line S1, this paper aims to form a set of key construction technology of the double-width parallel cast-in-place box girder.

ZHENG Bo, WU Jian, ZHENG Jinlong, TAO Weiming, GUO Rui, LENG Xiqian
Research purposes:As the construction of the Sichuan-Tibet Railway progressing, the number of domestic super-long tunnels with high altitude and large elevation is soaring sharply. Because the current temperature distribution law in super-long tunnel with high altitude and large elevation is still unclear, it severely restricts its thermal insulation and anti-freezing design. If improperly fortified, the freezing damage will occur and furthermore, it will affect the operational safety. In this paper, taking the existing super-long tunnel with high altitude and large elevation as an example, the meteorological monitoring data inside and outside tunnel before and after construction are utilized to study a temperature distribution law and its influences on thermal insulation and anti-freezing length, and the relevant suggestions for thermal insulation and anti-freezing design are given by means of on-site monitoring, numerical simulation and other methods.
Research conclusions:(1) During the construction of tunnel, the temperature near tunnel face ranges from 13 °C to 16°C all year around and basically, it remains constant and less-affected by the temperature outside tunnel. The temperature value is mainly determined by the temperature of the surrounding rocks. (2) After the completion of tunnel, the longitudinal temperature distribution in tunnel are changed significantly and affected dramatically by the meteorological environmental conditions outside the tunnel. The "chimney effects" of the super-long tunnel with high altitude and large elevation is obvious. (3) The super-long tunnel with high altitude and large elevation will create a one-way natural ventilation from lower opening to higher opening, causing that the negative temperature length of the lower opening is apparently longer than that of higher opening and the temperature fields at both ends of the opening are asymmetrically distributed. (4) The research results can provide a reference for the construction of high-altitude tunnels with large elevation difference between lower and higher openings in Sichuan-Tibet Railway.

PI Tianxiang, CHEN Zhaozhi, ZHAO Jianxin, WANG Sicheng
Research purposes:For the purpose of improving seismic behaviors of the cantilever columns, which are usually used in single-row column structures such as platform canopy and urban metro, the paper proposed a concrete core separation column composed of an inner column and an outer ring column, and put forward two types of connection columns with connectors and without connectors between the inner column and the outer ring column. We conducted the low-cycle reversed loading test of two large scale dimension specimens and numerical analysis with multi-parameters. The stiffness degradation, bearing capacity, ductility and energy dissipation of two columns were investigated, and the optimal design parameters such as the diameter ratio of inner and outer columns and the area ratio of longitudinal reinforcement were obtained.
Research conclusions:(1) The bearing capacity, energy consumption and elastic stiffness of the two core-separation composite columns are slightly lower than those of solid columns with the same reinforcement. However, when the concrete at the bottom of the column is broken, the damage of the inner column is less, and the yield of longitudinal reinforcement is significantly later than that of the outer column. The inner column can serves as the second seismic line of defense effectively. (2) Most of the concrete connectors in the column with connectors are in the plastic stress state and the initial stiffness is larger than that of the column without concrete connectors, but the energy dissipation capacity is slightly poor. (3) When the radius ratio of inner and outer circular columns is 0.4 and the reinforcement area ratio is 1 ∶2~1 ∶3, the two types of concrete core separation composite columns have better seismic behavior. (4) The relevant results can provide reference for the design of single column cantilever structure such as platform canopy.
