Title:
CORROSION FATIGUE LIFE PREDICTION METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR PRESTRESSED CONCRETE BRIDGE
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2020/042781
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
A corrosion fatigue life prediction method and system for a prestressed concrete bridge. The stress of a steel strand is divided into three parts: tensile stress caused by remaining effective prestress, elastic stress caused by fatigue load, and stress caused by plastic deformation of concrete in a compressive area. The remaining structure prestress is obtained by predicting the level of corrosion of the steel strand; a stress concentration factor is introduced to consider the effect of stress concentration caused by pitting corrosion, and an elastic stress growth model for the steel strand under the action of both corrosion and fatigue is provided; taking the cross-section loss of the steel strand as a fatigue damage parameter and considering the degradation of the elastic modulus of the concrete after fatigue, a plastic stress growth model for the steel strand is established; a failure criteria of concrete, steel strands and ordinary steel bars are clarified; and a life analysis method for a prestressed concrete bridge under corrosive environment and fatigue load is formed. The prediction method is reasonable and applicable, and can provide support for safety assessment of prestressed concrete bridges in service.
