Using the finite element software ANSYS to analyze dynamic characteristics of external prestressing structure, reasonable control parameter, as well as external prestressing reinforcement joints of security, the main research contents and results are as follows: Dynamic performance analysis is about variation law and internal feature. With the increase of external prestressing, on the contrary, the natural vibration frequency will reduce. However, external prestressing effects on the structural dynamic performance improvement that is not obvious in general. Based on sensitivity analysis, control parameter of external prestressing reinforcement curved beam must be analyzed and the reasonable value range of sensitive control parameter can be found. For the control parameter of external prestressing process, its reasonable control parameter’s range should be about 6% in the theoretical calculation. While simulating of anchoring system, local force on anchoring system must be analyzed finely and accurately. A comprehensive understanding should be mastered on variation law, which is about the internal forcing and stress response of special area. The setting of anchoring device shall be arranged at 1/3 place of original prestressing position. To ensure the safety, it should guarantee the mechanical continuity of anchor joints.

In the study of bridge pier’s dynamic characteristics, the modal analysis is the foundation of other dynamic analysis and is of great significance for studying other dynamic performance. Based on the dynamic theory of fluid-solid interface coupling, a 3D water-structure coupling finite element modal is established and computed by ANSYS. To verify the validity of the calculation results, the results of finite element software is compared with the analytical solutions in reference books. The analysis indicated that the results of finite element software are reasonable when the radius of bridge pier is five times the radius of water body. The ratio of water depth and the bridge pier’s height has a great influence on the change scale of bridge pier’s frequency. With the increase of bridge pier’s height-diameter ratio, the first three order natural vibration frequency is reduced.

The dynamic characteristics are not only the important indexes for evaluating the bridge structural rigidity, but also the principal parameters for structural dynamic analysis and earthquake resistant analysis. In this paper, a three dimensional solid finite element model for a butterfly-shape arch bridge in Zhongshan city was established to analyze the dynamic characteristics. By comparison the numerical calculation results with measured results of the dynamic loading test, an analysis and evaluation of the dynamic performance of this new type spatial arch bridge was made, and can serve as reference to the dynamic analysis and seismic design of similar bridges.

This research is aimed at investigating the dynamic behaviour of, and to analyse the dynamic response and dynamic performance of steel frames strengthened with welded haunches subjected to a typical hydrocarbon blast loading. The structural dynamic analysis was carried out incorporating the selected blast load, the validated 3D model of the structures with different welded haunch configurations, steel dynamic material properties, and non-linear dynamic analysis of multiple degree of freedom (MDOF) structural systems. The dynamic responses and effectiveness of the reinforced connections were examined using ABAQUS finite element software. Results showed that the presence of the welded haunch reinforcement decreased the maximum frame ductility ratio. Based on the evaluation of the results, the haunch reinforcements strengthened the selected steel frame and improved the dynamic performance compared to the frame with unreinforced connections under blast loading, and the biggest haunch configuration is the “best” type.

Based on the anti-seismic research achievements of tired arch bridge at home and abroad, taking River City Bridge in Jilin as an example, a finite element model is established for dynamic performance analysis by general finite element software midas civil. Natural vibration characteristics of tied arch bridge are calculated as a basis for further dynamic calculation. Firstly, choose appropriate seismic waves according to the geological data. Then perform the dynamic response analysis of this bridge under different loading cases. Dynamic responses of this bridge under longitudinal and transverse seismic waves are studied respectively, and the influence of vertical seismic wave is also considered. It is shown that the influence on seismic response of vertical seismic waves is very obvious. The vertical seismic waves should be considered while doing seismic design of tied arch bridges.

With the development of wind turbines trend of single machine but large capacity, and with the concrete wind-turbine tower has many advantages such as corrosion resistance, high stability, convenient manufacture in-site and lower maintenance cost, concrete tower will have more and more wide prospect. Application of large finite element software FINAL, the main research is the influence of SSI effect on wind power tower natural vibration frequency. We can know that SSI effect is very important for wind power tower natural vibration frequency. So we can not ignore the influence of the interaction between soil and structure. We should pay more attention to this actor when we design or analyse a wind power tower.

Coal consumption and CO2 emissions are the major concerns of the 21st century. Solar aided (coal-fired) power generation (SAPG) is paid more and more attention globally, due to the lesser coal rate and initial cost than the original coal-fired power plant and CSP technology respectively. In this paper, the off-design dynamic performance simulation model of a solar aided coal-fired power plant is established. A 330 MW subcritical coal-fired power plant is taken as a case study. On a typical day, three various collector area solar fields are integrated into the coal-fired power plant. By introducing the solar heat, the variations of system performances are analyzed at design load, 75% load, and 50% load. Analyzed parameters with the change of DNI include the thermal oil mass flow rate, the mass flow rate of feed water heated by the solar energy, steam extraction mass flow rate, coal consumption, and the plant thermal efficiency. The research results show that, as DNI increases over a day, the coal saving rate will also increase, the maximum coal saving rate reaches up to 5%, and plant thermal efficiency reaches 40%. It is analyzed that the SAPG system gives the best performance at a lower load and a large aperture area.
