Abstract
Bidirectional bonded prestressed concrete (PS) structures are widely used in energy engineering structures due to their excellent impermeability. Owing to the particularity of the structure and the severity of damage consequences, the impact dynamic performance of bidirectional bonded PS structures has been widely concerned. Nonetheless, the existing researches focus on the test and finite element, and lacks the theoretical analysis model that can consider the whole process of load action, let alone the corresponding anti-impact design method. Therefore, based on the existing test and finite element results, the resistance function model of bidirectional bonded PS slab is proposed in this paper, and the anti-impact design method is formed. Firstly, the performance of specimens under low-velocity impact loading and quasi-static loading conditions is compared, and the effects of inertia force and material strain rate on the dynamic performance of specimens under low-velocity impact are further explored. Then, a resistance function theoretical analysis model that can consider the whole process of load action is proposed with a quadrilinear form, and the analytical expressions of resistance and stiffness at characteristic points are derived. Subsequently, the accuracy of the resistance function model is verified based on the existing test results. Furthermore, based on the resistance function model, the influence laws of compressive strength of concrete, prestressing degree, reinforcement ratio of reinforcement and slab thickness on slab resistance are analyzed. Finally, an anti-impact design method considering perforation and scabbing failure is proposed, and the feasibility of the design method is verified by impact test results.
期刊介绍:
Engineering Failure Analysis publishes research papers describing the analysis of engineering failures and related studies.
Papers relating to the structure, properties and behaviour of engineering materials are encouraged, particularly those which also involve the detailed application of materials parameters to problems in engineering structures, components and design. In addition to the area of materials engineering, the interacting fields of mechanical, manufacturing, aeronautical, civil, chemical, corrosion and design engineering are considered relevant. Activity should be directed at analysing engineering failures and carrying out research to help reduce the incidences of failures and to extend the operating horizons of engineering materials.
Emphasis is placed on the mechanical properties of materials and their behaviour when influenced by structure, process and environment. Metallic, polymeric, ceramic and natural materials are all included and the application of these materials to real engineering situations should be emphasised. The use of a case-study based approach is also encouraged.
Engineering Failure Analysis provides essential reference material and critical feedback into the design process thereby contributing to the prevention of engineering failures in the future. All submissions will be subject to peer review from leading experts in the field.
