Complex bedding properties and in situ stress conditions of shale formation lead to complex hydraulic fracturing morphologies. However, due the limitations traditional numerical methods, simulation still needs further development. Based on this, liquid–solid interaction modes SPH governing equations considering force have been introduced. The smoothing kernel function method is improved by introducing fracture mark ξ, which can realize rock processes. boundary applied mapping “stress...

A high damping rubber bearing (HDRB) is widely utilized in base-isolation structures due to its good energy dissipation capacity and environmentally friendly properties; however, it incapable of isolating the vertical vibration caused by earthquakes subways effectively. Thick bearings with a low shape factor have become one important isolation forms. This paper provides an experimental comparative study on (HDRB-LSF), thick lead–rubber (TLRB), (LRB). The abilities above are analyzed...

In a prestressed concrete bridge, the magnitude of prestress force (PF) decreases with time. This unexpected loss can cause failure bridge which makes identification (PFI) critical to evaluate safety. However, it has been difficult identify PF non-destructively. Although some research shown feasibility vibration based methods in PFI, requirement having determinate exciting these hinders applications onto in-service bridges. Ideally, will be efficient if normal traffic could treated as an...

Prestress force dominates the carrying capacity of concrete girders, and is vital for bridge health monitoring. Many vibrational-based methods have been proposed to determine prestress using responses induced by known excitations, which means that they can barely use normal traffic in-service bridges as excitation achieve long-term Moreover, most studies are based on beam theory, may not be precise plate-like bridges. Hence, this paper establishes a motion equation prestressed slab via...

Moving load and structural damage assessment has always been a crucial topic in bridge health monitoring, as it helps analyze the daily operating status of bridges provides fundamental information for safety evaluation. However, most studies research consider these issues two separate problems. In practice, unknown moving loads usually coexist influence vibration synergically. This paper proposes an innovative synchronized method that determines damages forces simultaneously. The firstly...
