Abstract:

Some “Partially Prestressed Concrete (PPC)” girders resonated and had large amplitude vibration during high-Speed train, so called “Shinkansen”, passing in the specific velocity. And many flexural cracks occurred frequently in resonance PPC girders. It was found that the effective cross section and the rigidity decreased by flexural cracks opening during Shinkansen passing. Next, although PPC girders were designed with the same standard design, only some PPC girders resonated. We investigated the individual differences and the load situation of train. It was found that the cause related to the occurrence of resonance was more influential to the load situation of train than the individual differences. Finally, we examined the effective countermeasure to stop resonating. By repeated loading experiment, it was found that the external cable reinforcement was the effective countermeasure.
