The method of composite stiffness principle and biparameter for laterally loaded pile was used in this paper to calculate the amplitude of deflection and rotation of pile on the ground when the vibration frequency of dynamic load is equal to or close to the natural frequency of pile, i.e. when the pile is in the state of resonance. And the amplitude of the maximum bending moment and its location was also calculated. Then the finite difference method which is simple in principle and easy to program was used to calculate the displacement, soil side resistance and internal forces of pile under horizontal dynamic load. By choosing reasonable parameters, rotation, displacement, and the maximum bending moment of hollow concrete pile and solid pile under the same dynamic loads at pile top in the same geological conditions were calculated respectively. On this basis, the performance differences between hollow pile and solid pile were analyzed. Some advantages of hollow pile were obtained. This research provides a theoretical guidance for the using of hollow pile in engineering.

Tensionless Foundation

The deformation and internal forces of beams on tensionless foundation materials were studied. The reaction force between the beam the foundation was fitted as a cubic polynomial about the deflection based on the experimental data, and the corresponding control equations of beams were derived by the finite difference method. Results show there are significant differences between tensionless and tensional foundation materials for the deformation and internal forces of beams. The difference is varying with the length of beams. Both the relative errors of the maximum of deflection and slope can be over 20%, and the relative errors of the maximum of shearing force and bending moment are smaller comparatively, so the tensionless effect of foundation materials can not be neglected for the stiffness verification and the strength verification of beams.

Pile foundations are frequently used in very loose and weak deposits, in particular soft marine clays deposits to support various industrial structures, power plants, petrochemical complexes, compressor stations and residential multi-storeyed buildings. Under these circumstances, piles are predominantly subjected to horizontal dynamic loads and the pile response to horizontal vibration is very critical due to its low stiffness. Though many analytical methods have been developed to estimate the horizontal vibration response, but they are not well validated with the experimental studies. This paper presents the results of horizontal vibration tests carried out on model aluminium single piles embedded in a simulated Elastic Half Space filled with clay. The influence of various soil and pile parameters such as pile length, modulus of clay, magnitude of dynamic load and frequency of excitation on the horizontal vibration response of single piles was examined. Measurement of various response quantities, such as the load transferred to the pile, pile head displacement and the strain variation along the pile length were done using a Data Acquisition System. It is found that the pile length, modulus of clay and dynamic load, significantly influences the natural frequency and peak amplitude of the soil-pile system. The maximum bending moment occurs at the fundamental frequency of the soil-pile system. The maximum bending moment of long piles is about 2 to 4 times higher than that of short piles and it increases drastically with the increase in the shear modulus of clay for both short and long piles. The active or effective pile length is found to be increasing under dynamic load and empirical equations are proposed to estimate the active pile length under dynamic loads.

It is a challenge to correlate different dynamic loads. Often, attempts are made to compare the peak acceleration of sine wave to the root mean square (RMS) acceleration of random vibration and shock. However, peak sine acceleration is the maximum acceleration at one frequency. Random RMS is the square root of the area under a spectral density curve. These are not equivalent. This paper is to discuss a mathematical method to compare different kinds of dynamic damage at the resonant point of the related electronic equipment. The electronic equipment will vibrate at its resonance point when there are dynamic excitations. The alternative excitation at the resonant frequency causes the most damage. This paper uses this theory to develop a method to correlate different dynamic load conditions for electronic equipment. The theory is that if one kind of dynamic load causes the same levels of damaging effects as the other, the levels of vibration can then be related.

The Impact

The practices of hazardous and unique facilities’ construction imply that specific attention is paid to the issues of safety. Threats associated with crash impacts caused by moving cars or planes are considered. To ensure safety of these construction sites it is required to know the potential dynamic loads and their destructive capacity. This article considers the methodology of reducing dynamic loads associated with impacts caused by moving collapsing solids and blast loads to equivalent static loads. It is demonstrated that practically used methods of reduction of dynamic loads to static loads are based in schematization only of the positive phase of a dynamic load in a triangle forms are not always correct and true. The historical roots of this approach which is not correct nowadays are shown; such approach considered a detonation explosion as a source of dynamic load, including TNT and even a nuclear weapon. Application of the existing practices of reduction of dynamic load to static load for accidental explosions in the atmosphere that occur in deflagration mode with a significant vacuumization phase may cause crucial distortion of predicted loads for the construction sites. This circumstance may become a matter of specific importance at calculations of potential hazard of impacts and explosions in unique units — for instance, in the nuclear plants. The article considers a situation with a plane crash, the building structure load parameters generated at the impact caused by a plane impact and the following deflagration explosion of fuel vapors are determined.

Laterally Loaded

An experimental study was carried out to investigate the effects of soil partial saturation on the behaviour of laterally loaded piles. The proposed study was conducted by means of centrifuge tests at 100g, where a single vertical pile was subjected to a combination of static horizontal load and bending moment. The study was conducted on a silty soil characterized with laboratory testing under saturated and unsaturated conditions. During flight, two different positions of water table were explored. The influence of density was investigated by compacting the sample with two different void ratios. Finally, the effects of a variation of saturation degree on the pile response under loading were studied by raising the water table to the ground surface. Data interpretation allows drawing different considerations on the effects of partial saturation on the behaviour of laterally loaded piles. As expected, compared to saturated soils, partial saturation always leads to a stiffer and resistant response of the system. However, the depth of the maximum bending moment is related to the position of the water table and the bounding effects induced by partial saturation appear to be more important for loose soils.

For the dynamic response problems of gear teeth, the dynamic loads which act upon the gear teeth should be considered as a function of both the position and the moving speed. In previous studies, the effects of the moving speed have not been considered. In this paper the effects of the moving speed of dynamic loads on the deflection and the bending moment of the gear tooth are investigated. The results are obtained from the elastodynamic analysis of the tapered Timoshenko beam.

The structure of the hull of the project 1288 trawler in a region of fore hold was improved to ensure fatigue strength of assemblies of the intersection of main frames with the second bottom. To this end, a study of the fatigue strength of these assemblies was carried out for the original side structure and two versions of its modernization. Values of internal forces at the points of appearance of fatigue cracks in the compartment have been determined for three design versions of the side. It was found that the greatest forces act in the middle of the fore half of the compartment. Calculations of parameters of the long-term distribution of magnitudes of ranges of total equivalent operating stresses according to the Weibull law in the points of occurrence of fatigue cracks for different design versions of the side grillage have been performed. These parameters were determined for the middle of the fore hold of the vessel and for the areas in which maximum values of bending moment ranges are in effect with and without corrosive wear. Values of total fatigue damage and durability of the studied assemblies were determined. Calculations were carried out by nominal stress method, hot spot stress method, and experimental and theoretical method. It was shown that in order to ensure fatigue strength of the assembly under consideration, it is necessary to extend the intermediate frames of the original version of the side structure to the level of the second bottom fixing them to the deck. It is also necessary to attach a cargo platform to the side thus reducing the frame span. As a result, the level of fatigue damage over 25 years of operation will decrease by about 3.5 times. As it was found, approximate consideration of the slamming effect does not significantly increase the amount of fatigue damage to the assembly. The results of the development of recommendations for modernization of the side structure can be implemented both on ships of the 1288 project and on other ships with a transverse side framing system.

Cargo Transportation

An increase in the volume of bulk cargo transportation through international transport corridors necessitates the commissioning of tank containers. Intermodalization of a tank container predetermines its load in various operating conditions depending on the type of vehicle on which it is carried: aviation, sea, air or rail. The analysis of the operating conditions of tank containers, as well as the regulatory documents governing their workload, led to the conclusion that the most dynamic loads acting on the supporting structures during transportation by rail. Namely, during the maneuvering collision of a wagon-platform, on which there are tank containers. In this case, it is stipulated that for a loaded tank container, the dynamic load is assumed to be 4g, and for an empty (for the purpose of checking the reinforcement) – 5g. It is important to note that when the tank container is underfilled with bulk cargo and taking into account movements of fittings relative to fittings, the maximum value of dynamic load can reach significantly larger values. Therefore, in order to ensure the strength of tank containers, an improvement of their structures has been proposed by introducing elastic-viscous bonds into the fittings. To determine the dynamic loading of the tank container, taking into account the improvement measures, mathematical models have been compiled, taking into account the presence of elastic, viscous and elastic-viscous bonds between the fittings, stops and fittings. It is established that the elastic bond does not fully compensate for the dynamic loads acting on the tank container. The results of mathematical modeling of dynamic loading, taking into account the presence of viscous and elastic-viscous coupling in the fittings, made it possible to conclude that the maximum accelerations per tank container do not exceed the normalized values. The determination of the dynamic loading of the tank container is also carried out by computer simulation using the finite element method. The calculation takes place in the software package CosmosWorks. The maximum values of accelerations are obtained, as well as their distribution fields relative to the supporting structure of the tank container. The developed models are verified by the Fisher criterion. The research will contribute to the creation of tank containers with improved technical, operational, as well as environmental characteristics and an increase in the efficiency of the liquid cargo transportation process through international transport corridors.

This paper presents the results of three dimensional finite element analysis of laterally loaded pile groups of configuration 1×1, 2×1 and 3×1, embedded in two-layered soil consisting of soft clay at liquid limit overlying dense sand using Plaxis 3D. Effects of variation in pile length (L) and clay layer thickness (h) on lateral capacity and bending moment profile of pile foundations were evaluated by employing different values of pile length to diameter ratio (L/D) and ratio of clay layer thickness to pile length (h/L) in the analysis. Obtained results indicated that the lateral capacity reduces non-linearly with increase in clay layer thickness. Larger decrease was observed in group piles. A non-dimensional parameter Fx ratio was defined to compare lateral capacity in layered soil to that in dense sand, for which a generalized expression was derived in terms of h/L ratio and number of piles in a group. Group effect on lateral resistance and maximum bending moment was observed to become insignificant for clay layer thickness exceeding 40% of pile length. For a fixed value of clay layer thickness, lateral capacity and bending moment in a single pile increased significantly with increase in pile length only up to an optimum embedment depth in sand layer which was found to be equal to three times pile diameter and 0.21 times pile length for pile with L/D 15. Scale effect on lateral capacity has also been studied and discussed. Doi: 10.28991/cej-2021-03091686 Full Text: PDF

An algorithm of the reinforced binding elements calculation with allowance for the physical strain of concrete and reinforcement has been suggested. The three linear diagram of the concrete condition and the two linear of the tensile reinforcement that correspond to the recommended norms in Russia have been used. The task has been solved by the method of linear approximation. The finite difference method has been used at each approximation that allows to define the beam rigidity individually for each dot j =1,2 , dotted on the beam with some small spacing. A method of determining the deflection curve bending, the bending moment, the rigidity as well as the compression areas of the reinforcement suitable for any deformation of the concrete most tensile fabric from 0 to limiting value ε_b2 has been suggested. A solution for the continuous three-span beam has also been introduced.
