Fabrication and Mechanical Testing of Ultralight Folded Lattice-Core Sandwich Cylinders Article

Wanxin Li, Qing Zheng, Hualin Fan, Bin Ji

Engineering 2020, Volume 6, Issue 2, Pages 196-204 doi: 10.1016/j.eng.2019.11.008

Abstract:

In this research, two novel folded lattice-core sandwich cylinders were designed, manufactured, and tested. The lattice core has periodic zigzag corrugations, whose ridges and valleys are directed axially or circumferentially. Free vibration and axial compression experiments were performed to reveal the fundamental frequency, free vibration modes, bearing capacity, and failure mode of the cylinder. A folded lattice core effectively restricts local buckling by reducing the dimension of the local skin periodic cell, and improves the global buckling resistance by enhancing the shear stiffness of the sandwich core. The cylinders fail at the mode of material failure and possess excellent load-carrying capacity. An axially directed folded sandwich cylinder has greater load-carrying capacity, while a circumferentially directed folded sandwich cylinder has higher fundamental frequencies. These two types of folded lattices provide a selection for engineers when designing a sandwich cylinder requiring strength or vibration. This research also presents a feasible way to fabricate a large-dimensional folded structure and promote its engineering application.

Shaking table testing of hard layered soil-pile-structure interaction system

LI Peizhen, REN Hongmei, LU Xilin, SONG Heping, CHEN Yueqing

Frontiers of Structural and Civil Engineering 2007, Volume 1, Issue 3, Pages 346-352 doi: 10.1007/s11709-007-0046-7

Abstract: Shaking table tests on a dynamic interaction system of hard layered soil, pile foundation and frame structure were carried out. The earthquake damage of the superstructure and foundation was reproduced. Based on these tests, several key issues about the seismic response of the dynamic soil-structure interaction (SSI) system were studied. The natural frequency of the system was less than that of the structure on rigid foundation if the SSI is not taken into account, while its damping ratio was larger than that of the structure. The mode shape of the system was different from that of the structure on the fixed base in that there were rocking and swinging at the foundation. Magnification or reduction of vibration transferred by soil was related to soil characteristic, excitation magnitude, and so on. Generally, sand magnifies vibration, while viscous powder soil dampens vibration. The components of the acceleration response at the top of the superstructure were based on the relative magnitude of the rocking stiffness, the swing stiffness of the foundation and the stiffness of the super-structure. The multi-direction excitations have little effect on the key issues of the horizontal SSI.

Experimental monitoring of the strengthening construction of a segmental box girder bridge and field testing

Ali Fadhil NASER, Zonglin WANG

Frontiers of Structural and Civil Engineering 2012, Volume 6, Issue 3, Pages 308-320 doi: 10.1007/s11709-012-0140-3

Abstract: Prestressed concrete segmental box girder bridges are composed of short concrete segments that are either precast or cast in situ and then joined together by longitudinally post-tensioning internal, external, or mixed tendons. The objectives of this study are to monitor the construction process of the external prestressing tendons to strengthen the bridge structure and perform a field load test to measure the strain and the deflection of the anchorage devices of the external prestressing tendons to determine the state of these devices after tension forces are applied. The monitoring process of the external prestressing tendons construction includes inspecting the cracks in the diaphragm anchorage and the deviation block devices before the tension forces are applied to the external tendons; measuring the deformation of the steel deviation cross beam during the tension process; measuring the deformation of the box girder after different levels of tension forces are applied; measuring the elongation of the external tendons in each level of the tension; and measuring the natural frequency of the external tendons after the tension process is complete. The results of the monitoring process show that the measured values of the deformation, the elongation, and the natural frequency meet the requirements. Therefore, there is no damage during the construction and the tensioning of the external prestressing tendons. A field load test is performed to the anchorage beam, the steel deviation block devices, and the steel deviation cross beam. The field load test results of the anchorage devices show that the values of the strains, the stresses, and the deflection are less than the respective allowable limit values in the requirements. Therefore, the anchorage devices have sufficient strength, and the working state is good after the tension forces are applied to the external prestressing tendons.

Field testing of geosynthetic-reinforced and column-supported earth platforms constructed on soft soil

Qiangong CHENG,Jiujiang WU,Dongxue ZHANG,Fengping MA

Frontiers of Structural and Civil Engineering 2014, Volume 8, Issue 2, Pages 124-139 doi: 10.1007/s11709-014-0255-9

Abstract: This paper is focused on the behavior of geosynthetic-reinforced and column-supported (GRCS) earth platforms in soft soil. By analyzing the data of a 15-month long field monitoring project, the bearing behavior and effectiveness of GRCS earth platforms are discussed in detail. It can be found that the soil arching is generated when the filling reaches a certain height. The measured pressure acting on the soil in the center of four piles was smaller than that acting on the soil between two piles. The elongation and the tension of the geogrid located in the soil between piles are both larger than the corresponding values on the pile top. The skin friction of piles is relatively small in the soil layer with low strength and the load transfer of the axial force in those layers is significant; meanwhile, the opposite situation occurs in the soil layer with high strength. The pore water pressure at shallow locations increases slightly with the filling height and is greatly affected by the increasing filling load. The layered settlement is directly proportional to the filling height, and the corresponding amount is relevant to the locations and the properties of specific soil layers. Additionally, the lateral displacement of the embankment increases with greater loading and decreases with increased depth. These suggest that the use of GRCS system can reduce lateral displacements and enhance the stability of an embankment significantly.
