Analysis of influential factors on additional shear force induced by shear deformation in girder bridges with corrugated steel webs

Girder bridges with corrugated steel webs (CSWs) exhibit critical shear regions proximate to supports, where the CSWs are subjected to peak shear forces and bending moments potentially inducing shear buckling. This study explores the shear behavior within critical regions experiencing hogging bending moments, where the accordion effect of CSWs dramatically exacerbates shear deformation. However, due to the substantially reduced shear stiffness of CSWs relative to concrete slabs and crossbeams, the shear deformation of CSWs is constrained, causing additional shear forces to form within them. The traditional basic shear method proves inadequate in predicting shear stress within CSWs for it omits these additional shear forces. The study introduces an enhanced formula to precisely assess shear stresses within CSWs, particularly in hogging moment regions of girders, considering the additional shear force induced by CSWs' shear deformation. A strong correlation between the additional shear forces and the geometric characteristics of CSWs has been identified through theoretical analysis. Accordingly, the study systematically investigates the impact of various parameters on the additional shear force through finite element parametric analysis. Comparative analysis demonstrates that the CSWs’ thickness, the height-to-span ratio, and the boundary constraint conditions of girders significantly impact additional shear forces, thereby affecting the shear transfer efficiency within the cross-section of the girder.

Modified calculation on shear stress of girder bridges with corrugated steel webs

The study examines the shear behaviors in girder bridges with corrugated steel webs (CSWs) considering different boundary constraints through theoretical analysis, experimental investigation, and numerical simulation. The accordion effect significantly amplifies shear deformation in CSWs at support locations. The substantial difference in shear stiffness between the CSWs and the concrete slabs constrains the shear deformation of CSWs, resulting in the generation of additional shear force within the CSWs. Therefore, the existing basic shear method is inaccurate for calculating shear stress in CSWs because it neglects this influencing factor. The study proposes an advanced formula for accurately predicting shear stresses near the supports of a cantilever prismatic girder bridge with CSWs by incorporating the additional shear forces induced by the shear deformation of CSWs. Theoretical analysis has revealed that the expression and magnitude of the additional shear force are correlated with the boundary conditions of the girder bridge. The study formulates expressions for the additional shear force induced by shear deformation in girder bridges with CSWs, considering various boundary conditions such as cantilever, simply supported, fixed-end, and continuous spans. It contributes to further enhancing the analytical method for calculating shear stress in prismatic girder bridges with CSWs, accommodating diverse support constraint conditions. The findings have practical implications for guiding the shear design of girder bridges with CSWs under various support systems.

Ice Thickness Measurement and Volume Modeling of Muztagh Ata Glacier No.16, Eastern Pamir

As a heavily glaciated region, the Eastern Pamir plays a crucial role in regional water supply. However, considerable ambiguity surrounds the distribution of glacier ice thickness and the details of ice volume. Accurate data at the local scale are largely insufficient. In this study, ground-penetrating radar (GPR) was applied to assess the ice thickness at Muztagh Glacier No.16 (MG16) in Muztagh Ata, Eastern Pamir, for the first time, detailing findings from four distinct profiles, bridging the gap in regional measurements. We utilized a total of five different methods based on basic shear stress, surface velocity, and mass conservation, aimed at accurately delineating the ice volume and distribution for MG16. Verification was conducted using measured data, and an aggregated model outcome provided a unified view of ice distribution. The different models showed good agreement with the measurements, but there were differences in the unmeasured areas. The composite findings indicated the maximum ice thickness of MG16 stands at 115.87 ± 4.55 m, with an ice volume calculated at 0.27 ± 0.04 km3. This result is relatively low compared to the findings of other studies, which lies in the fact that the GPR measurements somewhat constrain the model. However, the model parameters remain the primary source of uncertainty. The results from this study can be used to enhance water resource assessments for future glacier change models.

Mechanical performance of concrete-encased prismatic girders with corrugated steel webs

To enhance the shear buckling resistance of girder bridges with corrugated steel webs (CSWs), especially near the intermediate support where maximum shear force and negative bending moment are experienced, it is common practice to encase the CSWs with concrete. This paper analyses the mechanical performance of concrete-encased prismatic girders with CSWs based on finite element (FE) simulations, theoretical analysis and existing experiments. The concrete encasement restricts the axial free deformation of the concrete-encased CSWs (CCSWs), thereby diminishing the accordion effect of the CSWs. As a result, the normal strains in both the CCSWs and the concrete encasement become nearly identical, demonstrating a linear distribution that aligns with the plane section assumption. The study reveals that the concrete encasement assists the CCSWs in shouldering a portion of the shear force, and shear stress in the CCSWs is no longer uniformly distributed. In addition, a stiffness-based shear carrying calculation method for CCSWs and concrete encasement is theoretically derived. It is observed that due to the constraint of concrete encasement, the actual shear modulus of CCSWs surpasses that of CSWs without encased concrete, rendering it more similar to that of a flat steel plate. Lastly, this study firstly proposes a shear stress calculation formula for CCSWs, which theoretically explains the parabolic shear stress distribution in CCSWs. Error analysis reveals that traditional basic shear method, which assumes uniform shear stress distribution in CSWs, significantly underestimates the actual shear stress in CCSWs. Remarkably, the modified shear method proposed in this study accurately predicts shear stresses in CCSWs.

The Influence of Changes to Earthquake Regulations SNI 1726:2019 on the Performance of Shop House Structures in North Sumatra

Procedures for planning earthquake resistance for building and non-building structures, SNI 1726:2019 have been approved as a revision of procedures for planning earthquake resistance for building and non-building structures, SNI 1726:2012. With the implementation of SNI 1726:2019, existing buildings should be re-evaluated for their safety against this new regulation. This research examines changes in the performance of shophouse structures in the cities of Sidikalang, Tarutung, Padangsidimpuan, Sei Rampah, Tebing Tinggi, Limapuluh, and Lubuk Pakam. The results show that as a result of the change from SNI 1726:2012 to SNI 1726:2019 there was an increase in the value of the base shear force in the cities of Sidikalang, Sei Rampah, Tebing Tinggi, Limapuluh, and Lubuk Pakam with values respectively 32%, 8%, 11%, 7 %, and 10%. However, in the cities of Tarutung and Padangsidimpuan there was a decrease in the basic shear force value of 3% and 30%. The increase in base shear force is directly proportional to the increase in drift and interstory drift. The interstory drift that occurs is still below the permitted interstory drift.

Effect of Initial Stress and Mechanical Impedance Boundary on Scholte’s Wave at Micropolar Solid–Liquid Interface

In this paper, we study Scholte’s waves propagating along the interface of micropolar solid and liquid media, considering the effect of initial stress and impedance boundary surface. We obtained the phase velocities of basic elastic waves in both media and used them to derive the secular equation of Scholte’s wave. We found that the initial stress in the solid material does not affect the speed of basic longitudinal waves. After solving the secular equation, we obtained the speed of Scholte’s wave and the corresponding attenuation. We observed that Scholte’s surface wave obtained at the micropolar solid–liquid interface is inhomogeneous and dispersive. We investigated the effects of initial stress, Tiersten’s impedance boundary condition, and micropolar solid parameters on Scholte’s wave and basic shear waves. Numerically, these effects are computed for a particular model using the appropriate value of the parameters, and the results are illustrated graphically. This paper also contributes to not only understanding the behavior of Scholte’s waves in micropolar solid–liquid interfaces but also the factors that affect the propagation.

Study on the destruction law of physical and shear properties of soil in mining disturbance

Underground mining activities can easily trigger surface subsidence and cause damage to surface soil. However, there is still a lack of studies on damaged soil, restricting ecological remediation in mining-induced subsidence regions to a certain degree. Focusing on the particular example of No. 4 Mine in Yili, Xinjiang, China, this study comprehensively combined field sampling, laboratory experiments, and data analysis to investigate the variation rules of basic physical properties and shear characteristics of soil samples. The latter had different subsidence degrees (0, 0–20, 20–40, and above 40 cm) and various depths (0– 10, 10–20, 20– 40, 40–60, and 60–80 cm). The experimental results show that: First, the natural density and dry unit weight of shallow soil in the serious-subsidence region were more significantly affected by mining-induced subsidence than the conditions in the deep layer, which also dropped with the increase in subsidence degree (with a mean drop rate of 7%). Second, serious subsidence could greatly counteract the positive effect of slight and moderate subsidence on the soil shear strength, with a drop rate of up to 30.7%. Third, compared with soil physical indices, mining-induced subsidence more easily affected shear strength indices. In particular, the soil samples taken from 0 to 10 cm depth in the slight subsidence area and 60–80 cm depth in the moderate subsidence area were most significantly affected by mining-induced subsidence, with PCA comprehensive scores of over 1.5. The present study can con-tribute to gaining in-depth knowledge of the damage characteristics of surface soil under mining-induced subsidence and provide a theoretical foundation for formulating reasonable coal mining strategies and ecological protection measures.

Shear stress migration in a tapered girder with trapezoidal corrugated steel webs

This study conducted a comprehensive investigation into the shear stress migration of a tapered prestressed concrete (PC) continuous box girder bridge with trapezoidal corrugated steel webs (TCSWs) throughout the entire construction process, including cantilever construction, structural system transformation and external prestressing tendon tensioning. The results revealed that the basic assumptions, which state that TCSWs bear all the shear force and that only the vertical component of the external prestressing contributes to shear stress when considering its contribution, are not valid for the shear design of tapered PC girder bridges with TCSWs. The horizontal component of the external prestressing and bending moments can cause additional shear forces via the Resal effect, which results in the migration of the shear stresses between the curved bottom concrete slabs and TCSWs. This study investigated the mechanism through which the Resal effect and external prestressing influence the migration of shear stress in the entire construction process. The results revealed that within continuous girders, the Resal effect exhibits both positive and negative implications. Specifically, the negative Resal effect exerts an unfavorable influence, resulting in an increase in the shear stress experienced by the TCSWs. Moreover, this study introduced a modified shear method that that takes into account the influence of bending moments and the horizontal component of external prestressing. In contrast to basic shear methods, this approach provides notably heightened accuracy.

Torsional behaviour and working mechanism of concrete-filled galvanized helical corrugated steel tubes

Concrete-filled galvanized helical corrugated steel tubes (CFCSTs) are newly proposed for strengthening the corrosion resistance, ductility, and constructability of traditional RC structures. Their composite effectiveness and basic compressive, bending, and shear properties have been investigated previously. However, the unique spiral shape and lock-seam connections of the helical CST may lead to complex torsional responses, which have not been studied. This paper, therefore, attempts to present static experiments for the CFCSTs subjected to pure torsion and combined compression-torsion loads. The main test variables are the member types, loading directions, boundary conditions, and axial compression ratios. The static loading test set-up and instruments have been introduced in detail. The torsional working mechanisms are discussed carefully with the analysis of failure modes and torques versus torsional angle curves. The direct and indirect contributions in torsional resistances of the helical CST have been analysed and calculated through elastic-plastic stress/strain analysis. Finally, the applicability of the existing design methods for the torsional bearing capacity of CFCSTs is examined.

Comparative Study Of Dynamic Earthquake Analysis With Spectral Design And Time History Methods

Earthquakes are natural events that cannot be prevented by humans and their occurrence is very difficult to predict. In civil engineering, especially in the structural field, earthquake loads are a major problem in planning economical and safe building structures. This study aims to determine the comparison of earthquake structures with the Response Spectrum, Response Spectrum Matched, Time Histories, and Time Histories Matched methods on the magnitude of the natural vibration period of the structure, the basic shear force, mass participation, displacement, and deviation between levels. The results of this study that the period of natural vibration of the structure with the earthquake method RS 1.412 seconds, RSM 1.453 seconds, TH 1.453 seconds, and THM 1.453 seconds is between the lower limit of 1.054 seconds and the upper limit of 1.476 seconds, so it meets the requirements of SNI 1726:2019. The results of the base shear analysis showed that dynamic analysis is greater than static and the structural model meets the requirements that VDynamics > 100%. VStatic. The results of the analysis of building mass participation in various earthquake methods meet the provisions with results of more than 90%. The results of the analysis of displacements are obtained for the x-direction, the largest THM is 41.945 mm and for the y-direction, TH is 57.330 mm. The results of the drift ratio analysis are obtained for the results of the y-direction drift which is greater than the x-direction drift and permit control for all earthquake methods is safe and meets the requirements of SNI 1726:2019.

Mechanism and seismic performance of a novel precast concrete beam-to-very short shear link joint: Experimental and numerical simulation

This paper introduced a novel precast concrete beam-to-very short shear link (PCB-VSSL) joint with the separation from shear force and bearing moment. The mechanism and seismic performance of the PCB-VSSL joint were detailed investigated. In the present study, four specimens were investigated by cyclic loading tests, including a very short shear link-1 (VSSL-1), a novel joint with basic shear connectors (PCB-VSSL-1), and two improved joints (PCB-VSSL-2 and 3), and the influencing factors including the length of cross-bilinear-type (CBT) shear connector and lateral plate height in the CBT shear connector were analyzed by experimental and numerical simulation. The test results showed that the PCB-VSSLs had excellent bearing capacity and energy dissipation capacity, and maximum overstrength and inelastic rotation of VSSLs in the specimens PCB-VSSL-1, 2, and 3 were 1.85 and 0.15, respectively, which were the same as the specimen VSSL-1. The concrete cracks of the precast concrete beam could be minimized by enlarging the length and area of shear connectors. The results also indicated that the high-strength bolts would only transfer the bending moment from the VSSL to PCB-VSSL. The shear connectors only sustained the shear force, so the bending moment and the shear force of the novel PCB-VSSL could be effectively separated with the advantage of high bearing capacity, reasonable mechanics, ease of installation, and seismic resilience capacity. Furthermore, based on the finding of on failure mechanism of the PCB-VSSL joint, a simplified design methodology of the novel PCB-VSSL joint was proposed.

Study on Shear Behavior and Mechanism Based on Shear Functional Unit of Loess Microstructure

The structural specificity and hydrological sensitivity of loess have a strong impact on its long-term stability and safety. This topic is being actively researched and focuses on the macromechanical behavior of the shear strength of loess disturbed and its micromechanisms from the perspective of the dry–wet cycle (especially involving soluble salt erosion). In this paper, the correlation between micro-structural shear functional units and macroscopic degradation behavior was established by combining the changes in physicochemical properties of mass loss, surface cracking, strength deterioration, and structural disturbance of the loess with scanning electron microscopy (SEM) microscopic images in different dry–wet cycles and different salt contents. Results revealed that with the increase in dry–wet cycles and salt content, the mass loss of soil deteriorated and the surface crack rate increased. The cohesion of soil showed an overall decreasing trend, which decreased more obviously in the early stage of the dry–wet cycle, followed by a slow decrease, and tended to be constant after nine dry–wet cycles. However, the internal friction angle increased and then decreased during the whole cycle, and its value generally changed little. According to the deterioration and decay of shear strength, it can be concluded that the structural disturbance of loess increased with the increase in dry–wet cycles and salt content. At the same time, further linear quantization fitting of the structural disturbance parameters showed that the structural parameters had a positive correlation with salt content and a power function with dry–wet cycles, where dry–wet cycles seemed to play a dominant role in the loess structural deterioration rather than salt content. The microscopic study demonstrates that the dry–wet cycles and salt content do not directly affect the cohesion and internal friction angle of soil but change the basic shear structural unit of aggregate and then cause an essential impact on c and φ, which in turn have an essential impact on soil strength attenuation. This paper not only helps to elucidate the essence of water–soil–salt structural interactions but also provides theoretical references for sustainable development research in environmental engineering, geological engineering, and other related fields.

The Performance Analysis of High-Rise Building Structure Based on SNI 03-1726-2012 and SNI 03-1726-2019 (Case Study: Tower 1 Transit-Oriented Development Apartment Pondok Cina, Depok)

Indonesia has the latest seismic standard, namely SNI 03-1726-2012 which replaces the previous seismic standard, namely SNI 03-1726-2012. This study aims to compare the calculation and analysis of the result of the Transit-Oriented Development (TOD) apartment in Pondok Cina, Depok based on SNI 03-1726-2012 and SNI 03-1726-2019 and find out what parameters make a significant difference between SNI 03-1726-2012 and SNI 03-1726-2012. SNI 03-1726-2019. From the comparison results, there was an increase in the parameter values ​​of SS and S1 in SNI 03-1726-2019, resulting in the influence of the parameter values ​​of SDS and SD1 which became the reference for calculating the acceleration value of the response spectra in SNI 03-1726-2019. The value of the basic static shear force in the X and Y directions in SNI 03-1726-2019 increased by 18% from the value of the basic static shear force in SNI 03-1726-2012 and the value of the dynamic basic shear force in the X and Y directions in SNI 03-1726- 2019 experienced an increase of 15% from the value of the dynamic base shear force in SNI 03-1726-2012. The basic shear force increases because the acceleration spectral design response has a high increase in 03-1726-2019 compared to SNI 03-1726-2012. Based on the control of the performance level of the Transit-Oriented Development (TOD) apartment building, Pondok Cina Depok, is included in the Immediate Occupancy, meaning that when an earthquake occurs, the building does not suffer heavy damage, can still be used and the risk of casualties is very small. Performance-based planning can provide information on how the building behaves during an earthquake and the extent to which the earthquake will affect the structure.

Modulational instability of two obliquely interacting interfacial waves in the presence of a basic current shear

Evolution equations are derived for two obliquely interacting interfacial waves in the presence of a basic current shear. Using these equations modulational instability analysis is carried out for a pair of obliquely interacting uniform wave trains considering both unidirectional and bidirectional perturbations. It is found that the region of instability reduces in the presence of a basic current shear. Variations in the perturbed wavenumber at marginal stability due to changes in wave steepness and vorticities in the two mediums are displayed graphically. The maximum growth rate of instability for unidirectional perturbations increases with the increase in vorticity in the lower layer, but the reverse effect is observed when the vorticity in upper layer increases. The maximum growth rate of instability decreases with the increase in the angle of interaction of the two wave packets when the angle is acute, but the effect is opposite when the angle is obtuse.

Minimum connection details and truss structural elements have been calculated and qualify the requirements for strength and stress ratio.

Effects of Acidic/Alkaline Contamination on the Physical and Mechanical Properties of Silty Clay

Contaminated soil management and renovation is one of the major environmental geotechnical issues in China. Due to their special strength and stiffness properties, contaminated soil has attracted extensive attention in foundation and slope stability design. For the differentiated influence of acidic/alkaline contamination on the geotechnical physical and mechanical characteristics of soil, this study mainly introduced a remodeled silty clay sample contaminated by acidic and alkaline solutions in the laboratory and conducted research into its basic physical properties, compressive properties, shear strength, and microstructure. It was shown that when the hydrochloric acid concentration increased from 1% to 7%, the density and specific gravity decreased by 7.07% and 3.11%, respectively. The void ratio showed a descending trend with increasing concentration of acid. The acidic solution concentration was negatively correlated with the cohesion of the soil, but the internal friction angle remained constant with a concentration of 1–5%. Alternatively, when the sodium hydroxide concentration increased from 1% to 7%, the density and specific gravity increased by 1.88% and 2.67%, respectively. The void ratio decreased linearly with the increase in consolidation pressure. Alkaline concentration could affect the internal friction angle and cohesion in a positive correlation. Through the observation of microstructure, the surface of acidified soil particles was smooth and flat, while the surface of alkalized soil particles was rough and uneven. The results can provide reference for the evaluation of the mechanical properties of soil contaminated by acid and alkali.

Effect of moisture content on physical and flow properties of milk‐millet powders

AbstractThe physical and flow properties of milk blended barnyard and foxtail millet powders were evaluated at different moisture contents. Particle‐size distribution and span decreased considerably as moisture increased. The d0.5 increased from 24.769 to 38.642 μm in milk‐barnyard millet powder and from 27.942 to 41.063 μm in milk‐foxtail millet powder as moisture increased from 3 to 9%. The dynamic flow and shear tests revealed the hygroscopic nature of both millet powders, wherein moisture and particle size were found to influence flowability. The basic flow energy and shear tests proved that both millet powders would flow easily at 9% moisture content than at 3% due to agglomeration and reduction in contact surface area of the particles and the magnitude of their interactions. Compressibility and wall friction tests also corroborated the fact that milk‐millet powders were relatively more cohesive at 3% moisture, manifesting difficulties in flow. Between milk‐foxtail millet and milk‐barnyard millet powders, the former had better flowability due to its larger particle size and narrower span than the latter.Practical ApplicationsPowders are dynamic systems whose behavior changes drastically with minor changes in the environment or moisture. In this study, the influence of moisture on physical and flow properties of milk‐millet powders were evaluated. The physical and flow properties of milk blended barnyard and foxtail millet powders were influenced by particle size and moisture content. The flow properties could be useful in understanding their behavior during handling, processing, and storage, and thus help in the design and optimization of processing and storage operations.

ANALISIS DINAMIK PADA GEDUNG A1 PEMONDOKAN UPT. ASRAMA HAJI EMBARKASI ACEH DENGAN MENGGUNAKAN METODE TIME HISTORY

Indonesia is one of the countries most prone to earthquakes, causing a lot of damage to building structures. Therefore, buildings require earthquake resistance to allow time for building occupants to evacuate from the building. The object of this research is the A1 Hajj Boarding Boarding Building for the Embarkation of Aceh which is located on Teuku Nyak Arif Street, Kuta Alam District. The purpose of this study was to see whether the building met the requirements of SNI 1726-2019 in response to the Simeulue I earthquake with a magnitude of 8.3 on April 11, 2012, using Time History analysis with the help of software ETABS. By reviewing the building deformation, displacement and deviation between levels, knowing the working forces in the form of axial forces, bending moments, and shear forces on the columns and beams of the building. Data processing will be analyzed with the standard rules of SNI 1726-2019. From the analysis, it is found that the basic shear strength due to earthquake loads is 2302.1 kN for the x direction and 637.6 kN for the y direction. The largest maximum lateral displacement is 11.445 mm for the x-direction and 11.774 mm for the y-direction, causing the interstory drift of each combination of loading structures to remain within the limits permitted by earthquake-resistant building standards (SNI 1726:2019). It can be concluded that the Aceh Embarkation Hajj Dormitory Building A1 has been designed in accordance with the SNI 1726:2019 standard.

Finite Element Modelling of Bolt Shear Connections in Prefabricated Steel Lightweight Aggregate–Concrete Composite Beams

Steel lightweight aggregate–concrete composite beams (SLACCBs) with bolted shear connections provide several advantages, such as reducing the overall self-weight, shortening the construction period, and improving the structural seismic performance. However, current research on the mechanical behavior of bolted connections is primarily concentrated on composite structures with normal concrete (NC), and there is no investigation focused on the shear performance of bolt connections embedded in lightweight aggregate concrete (LAC) slabs. Therefore, this paper developed a three-dimensional (3D) numerical model to study the shear properties of the bolt connections embedded in SLACCBs by utilizing ABAQUS software. Nonlinear geometric effects and material nonlinearities were considered in the finite element (FE) modelling. The accuracy and reliability of the FE modelling were initially calibrated and validated against the push-off tests described in the literature. Subsequently, the basic shear properties of the bolted connection embedded in SLACCBs were studied and compared with those of the bolted connection embedded in the NC slab by applying the verified FE modelling. Meanwhile, the effects of the concrete strength, concrete density, bolt diameter, and bolt tensile strength on the shear behavior of the bolt connections embedded in SLACCBs were also investigated using extensive parametric studies. Finally, some design formulae were proposed to predict the bolt connection shear strength.

Pitaya peel extract and lemon seed essential oil as effective sodium nitrite replacement in cured mutton

This study aimed to assess the effects of partial substitution of sodium nitrite with different combinations of pitaya peel (PP) and lemon seed essential oil (LSO) extract as antioxidants on the quality of cured mutton. The lipid oxidation, volatile basic nitrogen, sensory evaluation, and total viable count of cured mutton were determined. The results of the quality evaluation of cured mutton indicated that the L*, a*, and sensory evaluation values were significantly higher in the T9 group than in the T2 group (P < 0.05), and the pH, shear force, and lipid oxidation (TBARS value) were significantly lower in the T9 group (P < 0.05) than in the T2 group. The TBARS value, total volatile basic nitrogen, shear force, and total viable count were significantly lower in the T9 group than in the T7 and T8 groups (P < 0.05). In addition, the T2 group had the lowest values of total volatile basic nitrogen and total viable count compared with the other treatment groups. The results demonstrated that the application of LSO and PP extracts to replace nitrite partially could achieve the preservation of mutton and reduce the use of nitrite in the curing process.
