Die Abmessungen der Pfähle werden sowohl von der inneren Tragfähigkeit und dem Ermüdungsverhalten des Stahlquerschnittes als auch von der äußeren Tragfähigkeit und der Pfahl-Boden-Interaktion bestimmt. Aufgrund der großen Zahl von Pfahlgründungen, die für aktuelle und zukünftige Windparkprojekte benötigt werden, besteht ein dringender Bedarf, die Dimensionierung und die damit verbundenen Kosten des Einzelpfahles zu optimieren. Bezüglich der Pfahltragfähigkeit sind wichtige aktuelle Forschungsthemen eine mögliche Traglaststeigerung durch Anwachsen und die geeignete Abschätzung der zyklischen Degradation. Zur Untersuchung beider Effekte wurde eine großmaßstäbliche Versuchsanlage auf dem Testgelände BAM TTS in Horstwalde nahe Berlin errichtet. Auf diesem Versuchsfeld können große Stahlrohrammpfähle zyklisch druck- und zugbelastet werden. Zudem kann die Untersuchung von Alterungseffekten durch zeitlichen Versatz zwischen den Messkampagnen untersucht werden. Erste Ergebnisse zeigen einen Anstieg der Pfahltragfähigkeit bis zu ca. 60 % nach einer Standzeit von ca. 18 Monaten. Für die Degradation der Tragfähigkeit der zyklisch belasteten Pfähle zeigen die ersten vorläufigen Ergebnisse ein zum Teil unerwartetes Verhalten. Zusätzliche Untersuchungen werden derzeit zur weiteren Abklärung durchgeführt.

Evaluating the degradation of ballasted track at bridges for high-speed railways The bridge design for railway bridges is far more dependent on the interaction with the traffic and the carriageway than for road bridges. This is especially true for the specific demands of the track in highspeed railways. Both maintenance and safety of the track have to be considered. The most relevant sections for the design criteria can be located at the bridge transition zones. Based on experimental investigations it is shown that bridge joint displacements, changes in stiffness and uplifting of the sleeper are causes for an increased degradation and loss in strength of the ballasted track. With respect to high speed vibrations of the bridge deck can have an even more decisive impact. Bridge deck vibrations can lead to destabilization of the bailast. In a numerical study the behavior of the track at the bridge is illustrated.

Assessment and optimisation of bridge transition zones on the basis of a numerical model for train-track-bridge interaction The main degradation process at bridge transition zones due to traffic loads is the appearance of differential settlements. Abrupt stiffness changes, repeating traffic loads and relative displacements of the superstructure ends on bridges often aggravate this problem. In this contribution, a 3D finite element (FE) model extended with a boundary formulation in the frame of the scaled-boundary finite element method (SBFEM) for a transient analysis of train-track-bridge interaction is presented. This numerical model permits an assessment of bridge transition zone with respect to permanent deformations of the track. The main focus lies on the modeling strategies for the vehicle and their impact on suitable assessment criteria for bridge transition zones. For this purpose, two different modeling strategies for the vehicle, a moving load model and a multibody model, have been compared and discussed on the basis of the assessment criteria. The results indicate that the model of the vehicle has a minor effect for an assessment on the embankment, but that the assessment on the bridge may show significant differences depending on whether the inertial components of the vehicle (multibody model) are considered. 2014 EURODYN 2014 - 9th International conference on structural dynamics (Proceedings) 978-972-752-165-4 EURODYN 2014 - 9th International conference on structural dynamics Porto, Portugal 30.06.2014 02.07.2014 799 804 2016-02-20 OPUS4-30490 Zeitschriftenartikel Cuéllar, Pablo; Mira, P.; Pastor, M.; Merodo, J.A.F.; Baeßler, Matthias; Rücker, Werner A numerical model for the transient analysis of offshore foundations under cyclic loading A comprehensive numerical model for the analysis of offshore foundations under a general transient loading is presented here. The theoretical basis of the model lies on the Swansea formulation of Biot's equations of dynamic poroelasticity combined with a constitutive model that reproduces key aspects of cyclic soil behaviour in the frame of the theory of generalised plasticity. On the practical side, the adoption of appropriate finite element formulations may prevent the appearance of spurious numerical instabilities of the pore pressure field. In this respect, the use of a coupled enhanced-strain element is here proposed. On the other hand, the practicality of the presented model depends ultimately on its computational efficiency. Some practical recommendations concerning the solution strategies, the matrix storage/handling procedures and the parallel multi-processor computation are here provided. Finally, the performance of the model with a benchmark study case and its practical application to analyse the soil-structure interaction of an offshore monopile under a realistic transient storm loading are discussed.

If all mechanical parameters of the system were known, the displacement of the system subjected to this load could be easily calculated. If not all of the parameters are known, but the load and the displacement are measured at one location, an inverse problem exists. In the presented problem the nonlinear springs are unknown and have to be determined. At first glance a problem needs to be solved, which is underdetermined due to the number of unknown variables. However, evolutionary computing can be applied to solve this inverse, nonlinear and multimodal problem. Sometimes a prior knowledge exists on certain system properties, which is difficult to implement into analytical or numerical solver. This knowledge can play a decisive role in identifying the system properties and it can be easily included as boundary condition when applying evolutionary algorithm. This article examines how and under what conditions the spring resistances can be identified. The procedure is exemplified at a mechanical system of a pile foundation.
