Abstract
In this study, corrugated plate material is used as the internal mold for the reinforced concrete structure, proposing a combined shelter structure designed to protect against rockfall hazards in mountainous areas. The research focuses on the impact of low-velocity rockfall (below 150 km/h) directly hitting both the reinforced concrete structure and the corrugated plate and reinforced concrete combined shelter structure. The accuracy of the numerical simulation results is validated through comparative analysis with indoor model experiments. Further investigation reveals the impact resistance and failure characteristics of RC (Reinforced Concrete) structures, CPRC(D) (Corrugated plate double-layer reinforced concrete composite structure) structures and CPRC(S)(Corrugated plate single-layer reinforced concrete composite structure), with the residual resistance index (RRI) introduced for the quantitative analysis of the residual load-bearing capacity of the protective structures post-impact. The results indicate that the shape of impact craters and the maximum impact force obtained through numerical simulations closely match the experimental findings, demonstrating the validity of the simulation parameters. Under the same impact energy, the maximum peak stress at various points in the CPRC structure is reduced by more than 50 % compared to the RC structure. Damage to the RC structure under rockfall impact is primarily characterized by central penetration failure and extensive development of diagonal cracks. In contrast, the CPRC structure effectively suppresses penetration, dent deformation, and crack propagation, significantly reducing the volume of concrete damage and the proportion of rebar damage, with the residual resistance index consistently remaining above 0.27.
The corrugated plate and reinforced concrete combined structure outperforms the reinforced concrete structure in several impact resistance factors, including maximum impact force, effective stress extremes, structural damage, and penetration depth. Additionally, after reinforcement with corrugated plates, the CPRC structure maintains a high level of impact resistance in most scenarios, even when the lower layer of rebar is eliminated, providing a theoretical basis and preliminary feasibility proof for the lightweight modification of the structure.
期刊介绍:
Engineering Failure Analysis publishes research papers describing the analysis of engineering failures and related studies.
Papers relating to the structure, properties and behaviour of engineering materials are encouraged, particularly those which also involve the detailed application of materials parameters to problems in engineering structures, components and design. In addition to the area of materials engineering, the interacting fields of mechanical, manufacturing, aeronautical, civil, chemical, corrosion and design engineering are considered relevant. Activity should be directed at analysing engineering failures and carrying out research to help reduce the incidences of failures and to extend the operating horizons of engineering materials.
Emphasis is placed on the mechanical properties of materials and their behaviour when influenced by structure, process and environment. Metallic, polymeric, ceramic and natural materials are all included and the application of these materials to real engineering situations should be emphasised. The use of a case-study based approach is also encouraged.
Engineering Failure Analysis provides essential reference material and critical feedback into the design process thereby contributing to the prevention of engineering failures in the future. All submissions will be subject to peer review from leading experts in the field.
