After over a century of effort by researchers and engineers, the problem of bluff body flow, in particular vortex shedding frequency, remains almost entirely in the empirical, descriptive realm of knowledge. Computational methods have been systematically applied for vortex-induced vibrations of the cable-stayed bridge with steel composite deck by unsteady wind loadings due to vortex-shedding. The focus of this paper is to predict the vortex-induced vibration of the cable-stayed bridge with steel composite deck based computational fluid dynamics(CFD).

In this study, a graphical automatic system is developed in order to investigate the stress redistribution of structural members in a steel cable-stayed bridge. The generalized Maxwell model is selected for stress relaxation estimation, and it is carefully verified and applied to all the cable members of a steel cable-stayed bridge to investigate its stress relaxation. A set of stress relaxation parameters in all cables is determined using the fmincon optimization function. The stress redistribution of the steel cable-stayed bridge is then analyzed using ABAQUS. To shorten the investigation time, all the aforementioned phases are built up to be an automatic system. The automatic system is then employed to investigate the effect of cable cross-section areas and girder spans on stress redistribution. The findings from these studies show that the initial tension in the cables of a steel cable-stayed bridge should be kept to less than 55% of the cable's ultimate strength to reduce the effect of cable stress relaxation. The cable space in a steel cable-stayed bridge should be limited to 15,000 mm to minimize the effect of cable stress relaxation. In comparison to other structural members of a steel cable-stayed bridge, the girders experience a significant stress redistribution.

An efficient and accurate algorithm is proposed to evaluate the reliability of cable-stayed bridges accounting for soil-pile interaction. The proposed algorithm integrates the finite-element method and the response surface method. The finite-element method is used to model the cable-stayed bridge including soil-pile interaction. The reliability index is evaluated based on the response surface method. Uncertainties in the superstructure, the substructure and load parameters are incorporated in the proposed algorithm. A long span steel cable-stayed bridge with a main span length of 1088 m built in China is considered as an illustrative example. The reliability of the bridge is evaluated for the strength and serviceability performance functions. Results of the study show that when strength limit states for both girder and tower are considered, soil-pile interaction has significant effects on the reliability of steel cable-stayed bridges. Further, a detailed sensitivity study shows that the modulus of subgrade reaction is the most important soil-pile interaction-related parameter influencing the reliability of steel cable-stayed bridges.

본 연구의 목적은 3차원 풍동실험을 이용하여 합성형 사장교의 공기역학적 특성을 분석하는데 있다. 2차원 풍동실험에서 선정된 내풍개선 단면을 가지고 영각, 풍각에 대하여 3차원 모형의 내풍안정성을 평가한다. 설계풍속에서 수직, 비틀림 와류진동, 비틀림 플로터 등의 공기 역학적 특성을 규명하였다. 또한 사장교는 FCM으로 대부분 가설하므로 가설단계에서 강성이 부족하다. 따라서 실험은 완성계, 2개의 가설단계, 독립주탑의 단계별로 나누어 진행되었다. 원설계가 강상형교로 설계되었기 때문에 강상형교와 합성형교의 내풍특성을 비교하였다. 이 논문은 중소형 합성형 사장교의 내풍특성의 기초 자료로 활용될 수 있을 것이다

본 논문은 풍동실험을 통하여 ${\pi}$형단면을 가지는 강합성사장교의 공기역학적 특성과 제진방법에 대한 연구이다. 제진장치로는 Fairing, Extension, Post, Flap 등이 사용되었고, 가장 효과적인 개선단면을 선정하여 영각, 감쇠비와 난류실험을 수행하여 내풍안정성을 평가하였다. 실험결과 선정된 개선단면에서 공기역학적 내풍안정성이 향상되었고 공기역학적특성이 규명되었다. 따라서 본 연구에서 수행된 ${\pi}$형단면은 내풍설계의 기초 자료로 활용될 수 있을 것이다.

본 연구는 케이블 파단이 콘크리트사장교의 동적거동에 미치는 영향을 강합성사장교에 대한 것과 비교하여 검토하는데 그 목적이 있다. 이를 위해, 강합성사장교를 대상으로 시간이력함수를 이용한 케이블 파단을 모사하는 적합한 해석기법을 검토하고, 동적확대계수를 평가하였다. 콘크리트사장교에서 계산된 동적확대계수를 설계기준을 기반으로 강합성사장교에 대한 것과 비교 검토하였다. 그 결과, 동적확대계수에 대한 현행 설계기준이 전반적으로 신뢰할 수 있는 것으로 판단되며 콘크리트사장교의 경우 동적확대계수 값이 강합성사장교에 비해 상대적으로 상승되는 경향을 보이나 설계기준을 만족한다.

This study developed an evaluation system to explore the effect of the environmental temperature on the stress redistribution produced by cable stress relaxation of structural members in a steel cable-stayed bridge. The generalized Maxwell model is used to estimate stress relaxation at different temperatures. The environmental temperature is represented using the thermal coefficients and temperature loads. The fmincon optimization function is used to determine the set of stress relaxation parameters at different temperatures for all cables. The ABAQUS software is employed to investigate the stress redistribution of the steel cable-stayed bridge caused by the cable stress relaxation and the environmental temperature. All of these steps are set up as an evaluation system to save time and ensure the accuracy of the study results. The developed evaluation system is then employed to investigate the effect of environmental temperature and cable type on stress redistribution. These studies' findings show that as environmental temperatures increased up to 40 ℃, the redistribution rate increased by up to 34.9% in some girders. The results also show that the cable type with low relaxation rates should be used in high environmental temperature areas to minimize the effect of cable stress relaxation.

Despite of the growing number of built examples, the analysis of non-symmetrical cable-stayed bridges has not received considerable attention from the researchers. In fact, the effects of the main design parameters in the structural behavior of these bridges are not addressed in detail in the literature. To fill this gap, this paper studies the structural response of a number of non-symmetrical cable-stayed bridges. With this aim, a parametric analysis is performed to evaluate the effect of each of the main design parameters (the ratio between the main and the back span length, the pylon, the deck and backstay stiffnesses, the pylon inclination, and the stay configuration) of this kind of bridges. Furthermore, the role of the geometrical nonlinearity and the steel consumption in stays are evaluated.

As few multi-tower single-box multi-cell cable-stayed bridges with corrugated steel webs have been built, analysis is mostly achieved by combining single-girder model, beam grillage model and solid model in support of the design. However, such analysis methods usually suffer from major limitations in terms of the engineering applications: single-girder model fails to account for spatial effect such as shear lag effect of the box girder and the relevant effective girder width and eccentric load coefficient; owing to the approximation in the principle equivalence, the plane grillage model cannot accurately capture shear stress distribution and local stress state in both top and bottom flange of composite box girder; and solid model is difficult to be practically combined with the overall calculation. The usual effective width method fails to provide a uniform and accurate "effective length" (and the codes fail to provide a unified design approach at those circumstance) considering different shear lag effects resulting from dead load, prestress and cable tension in the construction. Therefore, a novel spatial grid model has been developed to account for shear lag effect. The theoretical principle of the proposed spatial grid model has been elaborated along with the relevant illustrations of modeling parameters of composite box girder with corrugated steel webs. Then typical transverse and longitudinal shear lag coefficient distribution pattern at the side-span and mid-span key cross sections have been analyzed and summarized to provide reference for similar bridges. The effectiveness and accuracy of spatial grid analysis methods has been finally validated through a practical cable-stayed bridge.
