高铁桥梁无砟轨道层间连接区疲劳劣化机理分析及试验验证

Ballastless tracks are widely used in high speed railway lines. Due to the fatigue damage and accumulated deformation caused by the cyclic actions of running trains, the ballastless track had a irregularity form. On the other hand, the deformation of the bridge leads to flexibility, warping and local compression in ballastless tracks, which accelerates the degradation of ballastless tracks and has a direct impact on running safety and comfort. The interfaces between contacting layers is the damage source of the ballastless track. In this proposal, the cohesive zone model (CZM) is employed to simulate the cracking behavior of the interface and materials of the interlayer. The crack initiation condition, the damage accumulation law and a unified constitutive equation of the interlayer under monotonic and cyclic loading are established. Furthermore, the loading-unloading rule is determined. Based on the framework of the augmented finite element method, the mesh-dependent issue in traditional finite element method is resolved through displacement connectivity and mapping manner. The concurrent multi-scale model, which connects the global structural behavior of track structures and interface debonding and cracking in materials, is obtained by using Arlequin method. This model is applied to simulate the damage process and to reveal the fatigue damage mechanism of the interlayer of the ballastless track under cyclic loading condition. The results in this proposal can provide a theoretical foundation for the development of track structures and the establishment of rehabilitation strategy, which is expected to improve the performance of the ballastless track.
