Abstract:Selecting a 10×32 m simple-supported girder bridge of high-speed railway as the engineering background, the full-bridge elasto-plastic dynamic analysis model considering the restraint effect of track is established. The lateral displacement angle of the pier, the ductility of the pier bottom section, the yield displacement of the friction unit between the track bed plate and the main beam, the axial force of the track bed plate and the axial force of the steel track are used as the evaluation indexes to study the influence of the friction effect of movable supports under the rare earthquakes on the seismic response of simple-supported girder bridges of high-speed railways considering the track constraint effect. The results show that the frictional effect of the movable supports on the substructure of the simple-supported girder bridge and the track system is relatively small, both within 10%. With the increase of the friction coefficient of the movable supports, the support displacement, the lateral displacement angle of the pier and the ductility of the pier bottom section all decrease, and the yield displacement of the friction unit between the track bed plate and the main beam, the axial force of the track bed plate and the axial force of the track all increase. In general, the increase in the frictional effect of the movable supports is beneficial to the seismic response of the substructure of the simple-supported girder bridge, but unfavorable to the track system.
