THE FULL LOADING HISTORY ANALYSTS OF PRESTRESSED CONCRETE GRIDS WITH UNBONDED TENDONS

This paper presents a matrix structural analysis of variable stiffness on the complete loading history of prestressed concrete grids with unbonded tendons. A model of torsional rigidity affected by moment is derived by the analogy of space truss, and the effect of torque on flexural rigidity is also studied. In order to calculate the increment of stresses in tendons, a corresponding equation is created. Comparison of calculation shows well agreement with the experimental results.     

THE ARC-LENGTH METHOD OF SECANT RIGIDITY IN FRAME ANALYSIS

The secant rigidity is used for the are-length method to solve the nonlinear finite elements problems. The advantage of this method is unnecessary of calculating the initial resistance term caused by the incremental step. The computational work is less and the programing is easier as compared with initial are-length method. This method can be widely used to solve nonlinear problems.     

Prediction of the Economic Development for the Circumjacent Reservoir Region of the Longtan Hydropower Project Using Grey Quantitative Analog

In order to overcome some technical difficulties,we adopt ingenously the grey models combined with the quantitative analog method,and select the Dan Jiangkou Project which has accumulated practical operation data for a long time as the analog project to predict the economic influence for the circumjacent reservoir region of the Longtan hydropower project.On the basis of analog we have built various industrial economic grey models,and compare them with the corresponding predictions for the unconstructed reservoir case.The predictions of the former are greatly larger than the later ones.and hence provides a certain scientific basis for the central leaders to make a decision for constructing the huge hydropower project ultimateiy.     

Primary Study of Applicability of Plane-section Assumption of Shaped RC Columns

Adopting the element SOLID65 and LINK8 in the general finite element analysis software ANSYS and fiber model beam-column element based on finite element flexibility method respectively, the comparative analysis of the cross, L and T-shaped RC columns under compression, bending, shear and torsion with flange width-thickness ratio of 4:1 is carried out. The applicability of plane section assumption in the nonlinear analysis is discussed primarily, which shows that it is feasible on the whole for shaped RC columns with flange width-thickness ratio equal to or smaller than 4:1.
