Dynamic Performance of Vehicle-Guideway Bridge Systems for Low-Medium-Speed Maglev Trains Under Earthquakes
INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF STRUCTURAL STABILITY AND DYNAMICS(2021)
摘要
This paper developed a numerical model for predicting the seismic responses of vehicle-guideway bridge systems for low-medium-speed (LMS) maglev trains. Each vehicle was characterized as a multi-rigid-body with 50 degree of freedoms (DOFs), and the guideway bridge was modeled by the finite element method. The actively controlled electromagnetic forces were considered in simulating the vehicle-guideway interaction relationship. Subsequently, the equations of motion for the vehicle-guideway coupled system under earthquake were, respectively, established in relative and absolute coordinate systems to quantify the effect of structural pseudo-static components, so that the seismic effect can be taken into account. Case study was then conducted to thoroughly discuss the seismic responses of the vehicle-guideway coupled system in both time and frequency domains. Furthermore, parametric study was carried out to determine the effect of key parameters (i.e. vehicle speed, stiffness of guideway) on the system's responses. The results show that the conventional seismic analysis method relative motion method (RMM) (ignoring the structural pseudo-static component) will considerably underestimate the seismic responses of the coupled system, especially of the vehicle. It is suggested that the formulation be established in the absolute coordinate system (i.e. using direct solution method, DSM) for more actual prediction. The frequency responses indicate that the vibrations of vehicle-guideway coupled system under earthquake relate significantly to the natural frequencies of vehicle and bridge, while the same is not true for the vehicle-induced excitation.
