The main bridge of Zhengzhou Yellow River 2nd bridge is a concrete filled steel tubulur (CFST) arch bridge. Choosing the main bridge as the research object, the finite element procedure ANSYS was used to establish the 3D finite element dynamic model. In order to analyze the influence of structural Parameters variation on dynamic characteristic,17 different conditions were considered in the calculation and analysis process. The results show that the CFST arch bridge is a flexible structure. The vertical rigidity of the bridge is stronger than the lateral rigidity CFST arch rib. The changes of the transverse brace style have little effect on the vertical rigidity, but have great impacts on the lateral rigidity of the CFST arch rib. It is sensitive on the first step vibration if the bracing tube damage. But the bracing tube damage has little effect on the vertical rigidity. The damages of suspenders and bridge deck slabs influence weakly on the vibration modes.

Seismic analysis of concrete-filled steel tube (CFST) arch bridge based on finite element method is a time-consuming work. Especially when uncertainty of material and structural parameters are involved, the computational requirements may exceed the computational power of high performance computers. In this paper, a seismic analysis method of CFST arch bridge based on artificial neural network is presented. The ANN is trained by these seismic damage and corresponding sample parameters based on finite element analysis. In order to obtain more efficient training samples, a uniform design method is used to select sample parameters. By comparing the damage probabilities under different seismic intensities, it is found that the damage probabilities of the neural network method and the finite element method are basically the same. The method based on ANN can save a lot of computing time.

As a part of virtual simulation of construction processes, this paper deals with the quantitative risk analysis for the construction phases of the CFST arch bridge. The main objectives of the study are to evaluate the risks by considering an ultimate limit state for the fracture of cable wires and to evaluate the risks for a limit state for the erection control during construction stages. Many researches have been evaluated the safety of constructed bridges, the uncertainties of construction phases have been ignored. This paper adopts the 3D finite element program ANSYS to establish the space model of CFST Arch Bridge, and to calculate the linear, the geometrical nonlinear and the double nonlinear buckling safety factors under the six different lode cases. Then the bridge’s risks are evaluated according to the results calculated which provide a reference for design of similar project.

Zangmu Bridge is a concrete-filled steel tube (CFST) arch bridge along the Sichuan-Tibet railway in Tibet, with a main span of 430 m. Owing to the unique temperature conditions in Tibet, there have been no large-scale experimental studies on the thermal load design of CFST bridges in this area. Therefore, to determine the thermal load calculation parameters and thermal effects of Zangmu Bridge, a long-term continuous field test was conducted to measure the temperature variations in a test arch with the same pipe diameter. The test results were then compared with current design specifications and relevant literature. Finally, the thermal effects in a CFST arch bridge were analysed using the finite element method. According to the results, the following recommendations were made: (1) the average temperature of concrete in the pipe after the formation of concrete strength should be used to calculate the closure temperature of CFST arch bridges in Tibet; however, the standard calculation formula was still applicable; (2) the daily average temperature in extreme weather should be taken as the maximum and minimum effective temperature; (3) we presented recommended values for the influence range and gradient temperature for a single large-diameter pipe; and (4) a refined finite element model that included the arch base should be used to verify the temperature effects during bridge design.

The butterfly-shaped concrete-filled steel tube (CFST) arch bridge is an irregular bridge with unique esthetics. In this paper, this new shape of CFST arch bridge is introduced, and a refined three-dimensional finite element model (FEM) is established to evaluate static and dynamic behavior of the bridge. In order to reduce model errors, the FEM is calibrated according to numerical analysis and field tests. Static calculation results show that the butterfly-shaped bridge has good structural performance. The bending moment and axial force of the arch ribs increase when the camber angle of suspender changing from 15° to 50°. Dynamic test is carried out by ambient vibration testing under traffic and wind-induced excitations. The modal parameters of the bridge were calculated by the stochastic subspace identification method in the time domain. In terms of natural frequencies and mode shapes, the FEM analysis was validated by experimental modal analysis. The updated model thus obtained can be treated as a baseline finite element model, which is suitable for long term monitoring and safety evaluation of the structure in different severe circumstances such as earthquakes and wind loading in future.

Finite element theory was taken to do a research on a through CFST (concrete-filled steel tube) arch bridge and a change rule of the bridge’s natural vibration frequency was found when its suspenders were tensioning. Through three tension schemes, after solving the first fifteen orders of the natural vibration frequency of each condition and drawing the change curve and analyzing the effect of different suspender tension order on the natural vibration frequency, we come to the conclusion: different suspender tension order will have no effect on the natural vibration frequency when the bridge is completed but when it is constructing, which mainly shows that both the first three and eight to thirteen orders of the natural vibration frequency are discrepant; different location of suspenders has different affection degree on the natural vibration frequency of the bridge. The conclusion has reference value for bridge construction.

This paper proposes a computation method using the equivalent magnetic circuit to analyze the driving force for the non-contact permanent magnet linear drive system. In this device, the magnetic driving force is related to the rotation angle of driving wheels. The relationship is verified by finite element analysis and measuring experiments. The result of finite element simulation is in good agreement with the model established by the equivalent magnetic circuit. Then experiments of displacement control are carried out to test the dynamic characteristic of this system. The controller of the system adopts the combination control of displacement and angle. The results indicate that the system has good performance in steady-state error and response speed, while the maximum overshoot needs to be reduced.
