  • Patent number: 11599692
    Abstract: A calculation method of limit load, deformation and energy dissipating of a ring net panel of a flexible protection net, includes step (1): determining geometrical parameters of the ring net, connection type of steel rings, and diameter of steel wires; step (2): determining a loading rate, a loaded region and a boundary condition of the ring net panel; step (3): obtaining basic mechanical parameters of materials through tests, and establishing a critical damage criterion of the ring net panel; step (4): establishing an equivalent calculation model of a ring net panel based on a fiber-spring unit; and step (5): calculating a puncturing displacement, a puncturing load and energy dissipating of the ring net panel. The method adopts a calculation assumption of load path equivalence.

  • Patent number: 11535990
    Abstract: A two-stage energy dissipation type shed tunnel support structure connected by a principle of Dougong and a design method thereof are provided. The two-stage energy dissipation type shed tunnel support structure includes a Dougong joint domain, crossbeams and columns. The Dougong joint domain includes section steel members, wavy-wall cylindrical elastoplastic buffers, U-shaped sliding connecting troughs and high-strength bolts. Multiple layers of the section steel members are orthogonally stacked to form a Dougong shape, the wavy-wall cylindrical elastoplastic buffers are arranged between adjacent layers of the section steel members, and the U-shaped sliding connecting troughs are arranged at upper and lower ends of the wavy-wall cylindrical elastoplastic buffers, which realizes a connection between the wavy-wall cylindrical elastoplastic buffers and a section steel in two orthogonal directions.

  • Publication number: 20220178093
    Abstract: A throwing toughness buffer mesh unit for a rockfall protection and a design method of a critical throwing angle thereof are provided. The throwing toughness buffer mesh unit includes a cable column, wherein the cable column is provided with a sliding device on a top end and connected to a foundation structure via a hinged support at a bottom; a support rope, wherein the support rope is connected to the sliding device on the cable column in a sliding way and provided with a spring buffer on an end, wherein the spring buffer is obliquely anchored to a rock mass base near a protection structure; a protection net, which is obliquely hung on the support rope via a connector. A pavement inclination angle of the protection net is adjusted to a critical throwing angle by adjusting a height difference between cable columns to control a throwing track of falling rocks.
