Abstract:A massive concrete structure has a lot of micro-cracks due to the hydration heat. In general, conventional electric sensors have a certain limit in measuring cracks because of the noise. The durability is also badly influenced by corrosion. Recently, optical fiber sensors have demonstrated their superiority over conventional sensors and are able to solve these problems. Thus, in this work, embedded Fiber Bragg Grating (FBG) sensors for measurement of cracks in massive concrete due to hydration heat are develop… Show more
The self anchored suspension bridge on Jiancai North Road in Xi’an city is a typical cable structure. According to the force transmission characteristics of the cable, the main tower bearing platform is planned to adopt the construction method of laying embedded parts in the bottom layer and pouring the upper layer at one time, which is very different from the traditional layered and phased pouring of the bearing platform. In this paper, the finite element analysis software is used to carry out the fine modeling analysis of the foundation cap and its foundation temperature diffusion area, and the actual simulation of temperature and stress is carried out, and the “temperature stress asynchronous” effect caused by the bottom layer embedded parts and the upper layer pouring construction is studied; by analyzing the asynchronous difference of stress and temperature peak, the transfer law of temperature core area and the temperature field change caused by surface temperature control effect, the construction and monitoring measurement scheme is optimized.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
