The article is part of the author’s dissertation research. Multi-element metal structures are widely used in the construction of transport structures (metal spans, trusses of railway bridges, overpasses, etc.). During operation, such structures are subjected to the joint effect of loads, temperatures, and corrosive media. In accordance with this, the task of predicting the behavior of such structures seems to be relevant. It consists in the development of effective models oriented to the calculation of the bearing capacity of structural elements subjected to corrosive wear. The article discusses the most common corrosion damage to metal multi-element structures of transport facilities, the classification of corrosion processes according to the nature of the surface destruction, the main types of metal elements and bridge structures. The main parameters characterizing the corrosive wear of metal structures were determined. Ways to account for the effect of aggressive environment on metal structures, i.e. well-known mathematical models and work, in which attention is paid to the problem of corrosion, wear modeling. The process of identifying corrosion wear models (determining unknown model coefficients) is described. The system of equations for determining the coefficients of a mathematical model of corrosive wear is given. The values of the coefficients of the models used to predict the behavior of structures, with a different choice of an intermediate point are given. A statically indefinable flat five-element truss of arbitrary cross section, part of the rods of which works in tension and part in compression is considered. For this design solves the problem of assessing durability. To solve this problem, use the corrected Euler method. The obtained numerical values of the durability of trusses of five rods, depending on the lengths of the rods.

The problems of optimal design of metal structures are usually formulated as the problem of finding such values of the selected parameters of structures that provide the smallest (or largest) value of the selected optimality criterion in the area of admissible design solutions. In most works on the optimization of metal structures, parametric problems are considered, limited by the preliminary assignment of a constructive form with the possibility of changing its parameters. To solve these problems, both deterministic and probabilistic optimization models can be used. A deterministic problem of optimal design of flexible round metal plates exposed to the combined action of a load and an aggressive environment causing corrosive wear of one of the plate surfaces is considered. A feature of the statement is that it takes into account the effect of the stressed state of the plates on the kinetics of their corrosive wear. Due to the insufficient efficiency of random search methods, the sequential quadratic programming technique is used. Two formulations of the optimal design problem are formulated, which are reduced to the minimax problem. 8 optimization projects were considered, their comparative analysis was carried out. It is shown that the realization of the found optimal thickness profiles leads either to a significant decrease in the stress level at the end of the plate’s service life, or to a significant increase in the service life. Calculation results show that maximum fatigue life designs are equal at end-of-life, and the maximum increase in fatigue life for hard- pinned inserts along the contour is 59%. As a result of the study, it was found that the problems of optimal design of flexible round plates under conditions of corrosive wear (the rate of which depends on the level of stresses in the plates), presented in the form of a minimax problem, can be effectively solved using the sequential quadratic programming technique, and the study of time evolution is intense -strain state can be carried out using a combination of the mesh method and the Adams method. Realization of the found optimal thickness profiles leads either to a significant decrease in the stress level at the end of the plate’s service life, or to a significant increase in the service life.

Recommendations are presented for solving issues that arise in the design and operation of tubular transport crossings of corrugated metal structures through spawning streams while ensuring the safety and natural reproduction of fish stocks. There are discussed the results of experimental studies of culverts made of metal corrugated pipes with a normal and spiral shape of corrugation the bottom of which is buried and filled with suitable granular material to the level of the natural channel of a small watercourse. It is established that when 10% of the area of the corrugated pipe is occupied by stone filling, its throughput is reduced by about 10-12%. Based on the review of the existing literature and the results of laboratory experiments, data is provided to estimate the values of the roughness coefficients of the composite cross-section of a single-point junction and directions for future research on culvert reclamation are outlined. Studying of the structure of the velocity distribution in culverts can lead to the improved conditions for fish passage without installing special structural elements in the transit path of the fish passage structure.

Initial Research

Mining equipment made of welded metal structures is strongly affected by the corrosion phenomenon due to the working conditions. Initial research has shown that the corrosion phenomenon is most pronounced in the area of cross-welded joints and welded T-shaped joints. In the researches, there was made a chemical analysis of the welded construction material used respectively of the new material and it was observed a reduction in carbon concentration in the material used, but also a substantial increase in the sulfur concentration compared to the new material. The pronounced corrosion of the metallic structure is influenced by the chemical composition change because the sulfur is a grafitizing and weakening element, and the decrease in carbon concentration causes a decrease in corrosion resistance. Also, the pronounced corrosion is due to the action of sulfurous acid (H2SO3) and hydrogen sulfide (H2S), elements that are present in the working environment of welded constructions. In order to achieve a reduction in the corrosion phenomenon, it is very important that the welded joints are made using the optimal parameters of the welding regime so as to obtain metallographic structure with finer granulations.

The Impact

In the Russian Federation logging operations are traditionally carried out in winter. This is due to the predominance of areas with swamped and water-logged (class III and IV) soils in the forest fund, where work of forestry equipment is difficult, and sometimes impossible in the warm season. The work of logging companies in the forests of the cryolithozone, characterized by a sharply continental climate, with severe frosts in winter, is hampered by the fact that forest machines are not recommended to operate at temperatures below –40 °C due to the high probability of breaking of metal structures and hydraulic system. At the same time, in the warm season, most of the cutting areas on cryosolic soils become difficult to pass for heavy forest machines. It turns out that the convenient period for logging in the forests of the cryolithozone is quite small. This results in the need of work in the so-called off-season period, when the air temperature becomes positive, and the thawing processes of the soil top layer begin. The same applies to the logging companies not operating in the conditions of cryosolic soils, for instance, in the Leningrad, Novgorod, Pskov, Vologda regions, etc. The observed climate warming has led to a significant reduction in the sustained period of winter logging. Frequent temperature transitions around 0 °C in winter, autumn and spring necessitate to work during the off-season too, while cutting areas thaw. In bad seasonal and climatic conditions, which primarily include off-season periods in general and permafrost in particular, it is very difficult to take into account in mathematical models features of soil freezing and thawing and their effect on the destruction nature. The article shows that the development of long-term predictive models of indicators of cyclic interaction between the skidding system and forest soil in adverse climatic conditions of off-season logging operations in order to improve their reliability requires rapid adjustment of the calculated parameters based on the actual experimental data at a given step of the cycles.

Optical Structure

A metallic nano-trench is a unique optical structure capable of ultrasensitive detection of molecules, active modulation as well as potential electrochemical applications. Recently, wet-etching the dielectrics of metal–insulator–metal structures has emerged as a reliable method of creating optically active metallic nano-trenches with a gap width of 10 nm or less, opening a new venue for studying the dynamics of nanoconfined molecules. Yet, the high surface tension of water in the process of drying leaves the nano-trenches vulnerable to collapsing, limiting the achievable width to no less than 5 nm. In this work, we overcome the technical limit and realize metallic nano-trenches with widths as small as 1.5 nm. The critical point drying technique significantly alleviates the stress applied to the gap in the drying process, keeping the ultra-narrow gap from collapsing. Terahertz spectroscopy of the trenches clearly reveals the signature of successful wet etching of the dielectrics without apparent damage to the gap. We expect that our work will enable various optical and electrochemical studies at a few-molecules-thick level.
