Abstract

Under high-level earthquakes, bridge piers and bearings are prone to be damaged and the elastoplastic state of bridge structural components is easily accessible in the train-track-bridge interaction (TTBI) system. Considering the complexity and structural non-linearity of the TTBI system under earthquakes, a single software is not adequate for the coupling analysis. Therefore, in this paper, an interactive method for the TTBI system is proposed by combining the multi-body dynamics software Simpack and the seismic simulation software OpenSees based on the Client-Server architecture, which takes full advantages of the powerful wheel-track contact analysis capabilities of Simpack and the sophisticated nonlinear analysis capabilities of OpenSees. Based on the proposed Simpack and OpenSees co-simulating train-track-bridge (SOTTB) method, a single-span bridge analysis under the earthquake was conducted and the accuracy of co-simulation method was verified by comparing it with results of the finite element model. Finally, the TTBI model is built utilizing the SOTTB method to further discuss the running safety of HST on multi-span simply supported bridges under earthquakes. The results show that the SOTTB method has the advantages of usability, high versatility and accuracy which can be further used to study the running safety of HST under earthquakes with high intensities.

摘要

列车-轨道-桥梁耦合振动系统在**地震作用下, 桥墩和支座容易发生破坏, 桥梁结构容易进入弹塑性状态。 考虑到**震作用下车-轨-桥耦合振动系统的复杂性和桥梁结构的非线性, 单一软件难以满足耦合振动分析的要求。 因此, 本文首先基于Client-Server 架构, 提出了一种将多体动力学软件Simpack 和地震仿真开源软件OpenSees 相结合的车-轨-桥耦合振动分析方法, 该方法充分利用了Simpack **大的轮轨分析能力和OpenSees 完善的非线性分析功能。 继而, 采用联合仿真和有限元整体建模仿真两种不同的仿真思路对单跨简支梁桥进行时程分析, 验证了基于Simpack 与OpenSees 联合仿真思路的**确性和准确性。 最后, 采用本文提出的基于Simpack 与OpenSees 联合仿真的车-轨-桥空间耦合振动分析方法对地震作用下多跨桥梁的仿真进行了进一步的分析。 结果表明:使用本文提出的新的车-轨-桥空间耦合振动分析方法进行地震下高速列车-轨道-桥梁耦合振动分析研究具有通用性**、准确性高等优点, 可以很好地进行地震下车-轨-桥耦合振动研究。
