An innovative Multi-level bumper and energy-consuming system (MBES) with corrosion-resistant steel floating caisson is proposed as protective structures for bridge piers against ship collision in this paper. MBES is provided with a three-level anti-collision module which consists of a corrugated-type energy-absorbing base, rubber fender, corrosion-resistant steel box filled with pre-compressed rubber tire. MBES is assembled in segments, exhibiting good energy absorbing and highly designable properties. This paper aims to evaluate the effectiveness of MBES adopted in a continuous beam bridge using finite element models. Based on the numerical model, the oblique collision situation at different positions were studied. Numerical results indicate the obvious advantages of the device by comparing peak impact force and impact duration. Significantly decrement of the peak impact force and effectively prolonged impact process indicate the superior performance of the device. Multi-level anti-collision fortification, the modular fabrication and replacement, simple maintenance, strong self-floating ability and excellent corrosion resistance make MBES very effective as a bridge protection structure in ship collision. |
