Dynamic response of conductor breakage is analyzed on guyed oxytropis transmission tower-line system of 500KV 5291 JinJiang-Zhenjiang lines. Considering unbalanced tension, finite element method is presented. Result of the transient analysis shows that the vibration of tower-line system happens after conductor breakage. With the damping affect，the system vibration becomes gentle. For the tension of lines, the peak value of dynamic tension of conductor can be times of the initial tension. It is shown that the proposed method is of efficiency and practicality.

A backface strain technique is introduced to examine fatigue crack initiation in solder lap joints. The technique detects the fatigue crack initiation by monitoring the backface strain at the end of the overlap. Variation of the backface strain with the development of a crack was simulated by finite element method. The simulation indicated that the backface strain at the end of the overlap reached a peak value when a fatigue crack initiated. Experimental verification was carried out in 63Sn-37Pb solder joints. The backface strain was recorded as a function of stress cycle to demonstrate the applicability of this technique. Experimental results showed that fatigue crack initiation took about half of the fatigue lifetime of the solder joints.

The Impact

Ice shedding causes transmission lines to vibrate violently, which induces a sharp increase in the longitudinal unbalanced tension of the lines, even resulting in the progressive collapse of transmission towers in serious cases, which is a common ice-based disaster for transmission tower-line systems. Based on the actual engineering characteristics of a 500 kV transmission line taken as the research object, a finite element model of a two-tower, three-line system is established by commercial ANSYS finite element software. In the modeling process, the uniform mode method is used to introduce the initial defects, and the collapse caused by ice shedding and its influencing parameters are systematically studied. The results show that the higher the ice-shedding height is, the greater the threat of ice shedding to the system; furthermore, the greater the span is, the shorter the insulator length and the greater the dynamic response of the line; the impact of ice shedding should be considered in the design of transmission towers.

Analysis and design of structures subjected to arbitrary dynamic loadings especially earthquakes have been studied during past decades. In practice, the effects of soil-structure interaction on the dynamic response of structures are usually neglected. In this study, the effect of soil-structure interaction on the dynamic response of structures has been examined. The substructure method using dynamic stiffness of soil is used to analyze soil-structure system. A coupled model based on finite element method and scaled boundary finite element method is applied. Finite element method is used to analyze the structure, and scaled boundary finite element method is applied in the analysis of unbounded soil region. Due to analytical solution in the radial direction, the radiation condition is satisfied exactly. The material behavior of soil and structure is assumed to be linear. The soil region is considered as a homogeneous half-space. The analysis is performed in time domain. A computer program is prepared to analyze the soil-structure system. Comparing the results with those in literature shows the exactness and competency of the proposed method.

The interaction between underground pipelines and soils is crucial to the design and maintenance of underground pipeline network systems. In this paper, the dynamic stiffness matrix in the frequency-domain of the buried pipeline is obtained by the improved scaled boundary finite element method (SBFEM) coupled with the finite element method (FEM) at the interface between the far and near fields. A new coordinate transformation together with a scaled line is introduced in the improved SBFEM. Combined with the mixed variable algorithm, the time-domain solution of the buried pipeline under dynamic loads is then obtained. The accuracy of the proposed algorithm was verified by numerical examples. A parametric study is performed to assess the influence of the anisotropic characteristics of the layered soils on the dynamic response of the pipeline, the result of which provides a reliable basis for engineering practice. The results show that these parameters have a significant impact on the pipeline. The understanding of this impact can contribute to the design, construction, and maintenance of the corresponding engineering projects.

Azimuthal electromagnetic wave logging-while-drilling (LWD) technology can detect weak electromagnetic wave signal and realize real-time resistivity imaging. It has great values to reduce drilling cost and increase drilling rate. In this paper, self-adaptive hp finite element method (FEM) has been used to study the azimuthal resistivity LWD responses in different conditions. Numerical simulation results show that amplitude attenuation and phase shift of directional electromagnetic wave signals are closely related to induced magnetic field and azimuthal angle. The peak value and polarity of geological guidance signals can be used to distinguish reservoir interface and achieve real-time geosteering drilling. Numerical simulation results also show the accuracy of the self-adaptive hp FEM and provide physical interpretation of peak value and polarity of the geological guidance signals.
