The presence of traffic on a slender long-span bridge deck will modify the cross-section profile of the bridge, which may influence the flutter derivatives and in turn, the critical flutter wind velocity of the bridge. Studies on the influence of vehicles on the flutter derivatives and the critical flutter wind velocity of bridges are rather rare as compared to the investigations on the coupled buffeting vibration of the wind-vehicle-bridge system. A typical streamlined cross-section for long-span bridges is adopted for both experimental and analytical studies. The scaled bridge section model with vehicle models distributed on the bridge deck considering different traffic flow scenarios has been tested in the wind tunnel. The flutter derivatives of the modified bridge cross section have been identified using forced vibration method and the results suggest that the influence of vehicles on the flutter derivatives of the typical streamlined cross-section cannot be ignored. Based on the identified flutter derivatives, the influence of vehicles on the flutter stability of the bridge is investigated. The results show that the effect of vehicles on the flutter wind velocity is obvious.

The PSC girders which currently used at highway bridge have the standard cross sections about 25m, 30m and 35m span. Thus, in case of highway bridge design, the bridge designer can choose the adequate standard cross section according to constructional condition. However, in railway bridge design, there are limitations on reasonable bridge design considering circumstances of a construction site and conditions of location etc, because the PSC girders used at railway bridge have the cross section about only 25m span length. In this study, the optimum design for the PSC girder railway bridge with 30m span length has been performed. Also, in order to investigate the dynamic stability of railway bridge using the optimum section of PSC girder, dynamic analysis has been carried out. From the results of analysis, it is suggested to denote the optimum section which satisfied the structural safety, dynamic stability and economical efficiency all together.

PSC box bridge by MSS construction method may not be set at cross section at one step. Web and bottom flange(U member) would be set at first, top flange will be set later with a time lag. In this case, U member and top flange concrete have different strain history. As two different aged section behaves as the composite section, there would happen the redistribution of stress. This is come from time-dependent strain characteristics of concrete itself. In this study, two models are considered, one with considering the set time of cross section and the other without. By performing longitudinal analysis of two models on considering construction stage, the stress differences of two are compared. As the analysis results show a considerable differences in the stresses of cross section between two models, the set time of cross section is needed for rational design f PSC box girder bridge.

근래에 와서 도로교량의 형식 선정에서 미관에 대한 고려가 더욱 더 강조되는 추세 있으며, 미적으로 뛰어난 곡선교의 가설이 자연적으로 선호된다. 전달행렬법은 이론의 체계가 알기 쉽고, 응용범위가 넓은 점에서 구조해석법으로 범용성이 있는 것으로 주목되어 왔다. 전달행렬법에 의한 변단면 곡선 상자형교의 정적해석을 유한요소법과 비교하여 잘 일치함으로써 프로그램의 타당성을 검증하였다. 곡률반경과 중심각에 따른 해석 및 변단면 곡선식에 따른 지간비를 구하여 최적지간비와 변단면 비를 순수비틂이론에 의한 해석치를 분석하였다.

Vertical stabilizer plates have been found to be an effective aerodynamic measure to improve the aerodynamic stability of bridges either with an open cross section or with a streamlined box cross section in wind tunnel testings and have been adopted in some long span bridges. By taking an open deck II-shaped section and a closed box section as examples, the mechanism of vertical stabilizer plates for improving aerodynamic stability are investigated by using numerical simulation based on Random Vortex Method. It is found that vertical stabilizer plates can increase the amplitude of the heaving motion, and decrease that of the rotational motion of the bridge decks.

일반적으로, 2개의 I형 거더로 이루어진 ${\pi}$형거더는 공기역학적으로 불안하여 내풍설계에 있어 매우 불리 한 것으로 알려져 있다. 공기역학적 진동은 구조물의 강성이나 감쇠의 향상, 단면 형상의 연구 등에 의해 억제될 수 있으므로 본 연구에서는 ${\pi}$ 형단면을 가진 4경간 사장교에 대해 영각과 공기역학적 제진장치의 추가로 인한 단면의 변화에 따른 2차원 진동실험을 통하여 공기역학적 특성을 파악하도록 하였다. 등류와 난류에서의 실험결과 본 교량단면은 기본단면만으로도 내풍안정성을 충분히 갖추고 있기 때문에 페어링(Fairing) 및 베플(Baffle Plate) 등의 추가적인 공기역학적 제진장치가 필요하지 않을 것으로 판단된다. 이는 본 교량의 경우 주경간이 230m인 4경간으로 이루어져 있어 비슷한 단면을 가진 교량에 비하여 수직 및 비틀림 진동수가 크고 강성이 크기 때문에 설계풍속 내에서 공기역학적으로 안정한 것으로 보여진다.

Aiming at the wind-resistant design of a sea-crossing arch bridge, the static aerodynamic coefficients of its girder (composed of stretches of π-shaped cross-section and box cross-section) were studied by using computational fluid dynamics (CFD) numerical simulation and wind tunnel test. Based on the comparison between numerical simulation, wind tunnel test and specification recommendation, a combined calculation method for the horizontal force coefficient of intermediate and small span bridges is proposed. The results show that the two-dimensional CFD numerical simulations of the individual cross sections are sufficient to meet the accuracy requirements of engineering practice.

When Korean High Speed Train (KTX) runs over a high-speed railway bridge, the high-speed railway bridge gives quite large acceleration response. Local vibration at the large cross section, the impact from equally spaced sleepers, the vibration due to elastomeric bearings, and the vibration from the train itself are the causes of this acceleration response. Maximum peaks of the accelerations measured at the bridges are sometimes going over the limit value. Although it is smaller than 0.35G, the limit from the Korean Bridge Design Manual(BRDM), this acceleration response should be reduced for the safety of running trains with high speed. In this paper, to reduce the acceleration response by controlling excessive local vibration at the large cross section, vibration reduction method is studied. The result shows that the effect of elastomeric bearings on the vibration of the bridge is very large and that the vibration reduction device is effective against wing mode local vibration PSC box girder bridge for the high-speed railway, which usually has very large cross section, although it has little effect on global vibration modes such as flexural and twisting modes. The test of the vibration reduction device on the bridge in service has been performed in this study.

The program which could determine cross-sectional dimensions of the box girder bridge at tile stage of preliminary design was developed using the optimal technique in this study. It could minimize the cost and time required in the design of box girder bridges and the construction with the prestressed precast segmental method. Objective cost function consisted of four independent variables such as widths and depth of the cross-section. The Nelder-Mead method was used to solve the nonconstrained nonlinear problem like this.

Girdling underpinning joints are key areas of concern for the pier-cutting bridge-lifting process. In this study, five specimens of an underpinning joint were prepared by varying the cross-sectional shape of the respective column, the process used to treat the beam-column interface (BCI), and the casting process. These specimens were subsequently analyzed through static failure tests. The BCI was found to be the weakest area of the joint, and the specimens containing a BCI underwent punching shear failure. The top of the girdling beam (GB) was subjected to a circumferential tensile force during slippage failure. Compared to the specimens with a smooth BCI, the specimens subjected to chiseling exhibited more pronounced circumferential compression at the BCI, which in turn considerably increased the shear capacity of the BCI and the ductility of the structure. The GB for the specimens containing a column with a circular cross-section exhibited better shear mechanical properties than the GB of other specimens. The BCI in specimens containing a column with a circular cross-section was more ductile during failure than that in specimens containing a column with a square cross-section.
