“…First, the specific applications of galloping and flutter typically refer to vibration phenomena in one or two dimensions while AEI or FEI is more generally applicable. Second, these terms are often confusingly mixed or differently defined in separate studies [28,46,190]. A fine example in this context is VIV which could be classified as FEI as proposed by Païdoussis et al [190] and mentioned in section 2.3.1, although in general VIV also comprises vibrations due to forced excitation.…”

“…However, flexible hangers are unable to provide essential rigidity and stability to adapt to the requirements of small deformation and vibration. Recently, rigid hangers have been more commonly applied in half-through arch bridges, especially in high-speed railway arch bridges, to reduce the dynamic responses of railway bridges under cyclic loads, such as winds, earthquakes and running trains [4][5][6][7][8][9][10]. Initially, concrete or prestressed concrete was used to produce rigid hangers.…”

Multiaxial Fatigue Assessment for the Hanger Deck Connection of a High-Speed Steel-Truss-Arch Railway Bridge

Steel-truss-arch bridges have been applied in high-speed railway bridges due to their excellent dynamic and static structural performance. Under the action of high-speed trains, the steel connections between hangers and decks suffer from repeated stresses, inducing potential fatigue problems or even fatigue failure. In this study, a multiaxial fatigue evaluation method was first created and established based on critical damage-plane methodology, following which the fatigue evaluation procedure was also created and recommended. The methodology was applied to real-life strain data from a high-speed railway bridge from which an assessment of fatigue damage and predicted fatigue life was estimated. The connection between the shortest hanger and deck on the downstream side was selected as the target due to its relatively high stress. A multiscale finite-element model of this bridge was created according to the design profile and monitoring results of traffic flow, where the finite-element model was calibrated and validated by comparing the calculation results with the monitoring data. Influence analysis was then carried out to investigate two factors—i.e., the total traffic flow and compositions of freight trains—having effects on the fatigue life of the steel connection. The results indicate that the applied multiaxial fatigue method is suitable for online fatigue evaluation of actual bridges. In addition, by using the multiaxial fatigue method, the fatigue-damage accumulation rate can be nearly 60 times that obtained by the uniaxial fatigue method. If freighting is taken into consideration, the fatigue damage will increase rapidly, and for the case 10% of proportion traffic as freighting, the actual fatigue life is estimated to be shorter than the design life.
