Abstract
In order to prevent skid accidents of main cable of suspension bridge, dynamic contact behaviors between saddle materials and steel wires were explored in the present study. Dynamic contact tests of saddle materials were conducted employing the self-made dynamic contact test rig. Dynamic contact behaviors of the saddle material (transverse slip, longitudinal deformation, contact state, wear mechanism) in a friction cycle were investigated. Effects of transverse and longitudinal locations, friction cycles and saddle materials on the dynamic contact behaviors were presented. The results show that dynamic contact states between saddle specimen and steel wireexhibits the adhesion-gross slip-adhesion-gross slip state in a friction cycle. The transverse slip and longitudinal deformation of saddle specimen both decrease with increasing distance to the contact interface, decrease along the transverse sliding direction, and increase with increasing friction cycles. The ZG270-480 saddle material exhibits the largest average transverse slip and longitudinal deformation, while ZG275-485 saddle material shows the smaller values.
