Effect of Train Vibrations on the Dynamic Response of a Multi-Span Double-Curved Brick Arch Thin-Shell Factory of Changleyuan

The dynamic characteristics of a multi-span double-curved brick arch thin-shell factory of Changleyuan in Baoji City and the dynamic response to train vibration load were studied using field dynamic tests and finite-element numerical simulations, and a vibration evaluation of the thin-shell factory was carried out. The results showed that the first_order frequency of the thin-shell factory was 6.24 Hz in the horizontal direction (east–west) and 9.31 Hz in the vertical direction. Moreover, it was established that the horizontal vibration is the overall vibration of the factory, while the vertical vibration is the individual vibration of the double-curved brick arch. In addition, the self-oscillation frequency obtained from the numerical simulation results was greater compared with the field measurements, with a maximum error rate of 7.14%. Both in acceleration and velocity, the vertical vibration for each measurement point was larger than the horizontal vibration, and the farther away from the railroad, the smaller the vibration. The vibration of the velocity at the bottom of the arch was almost the same as that at the top of the arch, while the acceleration vibration at the bottom of the arch was significantly larger than that at the top of the arch, with an average amplitude of 40.64%. For every 20 km/h increase in train running speed, the average increase in vertical acceleration amplitude, vertical velocity amplitude, horizontal acceleration amplitude, and horizontal velocity amplitude for each measurement point of the thin-shell factory was 35.4%, 29.8%, 23.7%, and 12.5%, respectively. When v = 150 km/h, the maximum velocity amplitude for each measurement point of the thin-shell factory was 1.163 mm/s, which is less than the security specification limit of 2.5 mm/s, such that the security of the thin-shell factory meets the requirement, and the maximum horizontal velocity amplitude was 0.272 mm/s, which is close to the integrity specification limit of 0.27 mm/s, such that the integrity of the thin-shell factory just exceeds the requirement; so it is suggested that train running speeds should not exceed 150 km/h and that the thin-shell factory needs to strengthen the monitoring and protection of its integrity.
