Abstract

Finite element analysis was undertaken to investigate the effect of freezing force of water unexpectedly penetrated into inserts used in railway sleeper on pullout capacity of anchor bolts for fixing base-plate onto concrete sleeper. Based on the in-situ investigation and measurement of geometry of railway sleeper and rail-fastener, the railway sleeper was modeled by 3D solid elements. Nonlinear and fracture properties for the finite element model were assumed according to CEB-FIP 1990 model code. And the pullout maximum load of anchor bolt obtained from the model developed was compared with experimental pullout maximum load presented by KRRI for verification of the model. Using this model, the effect of position of anchor bolt, amount of fastening force applied to the anchor bolt, and compressive strength of concrete on pull-out capacity of anchor bolts installed in railway sleeper was investigated. As a result, it is found that concrete railway sleepers could be damaged by the pressure due to freezing of water penetrated into inserts. And the pullout capacity of anchor bolt close to center of railway is slightly greater than that of the others.

본 연구에서는 콘크리트 궤도 침목 내에 설치되는 인서트에 예기치 못하게 침투된 수분의 결빙압이 앵커볼트의 인발강도에 미치는 영향을 유한요소해석을 통해 고찰하였다. 3차원 유한요소해석모델은 콘크리트 침목의 현장실험 결과, 도면 및 레일체결장치의 제원 실측치를 기반으로 수립되었으며, 비선형구성방정식과 파괴 모델은 측정된 압축강도로부터 CEB-FIP 1990 모델코드를 이용하여 추정하였다. 해석모델의 적정성은 철도기술연구원에서 수행한 현장 인발시험 결과 및 실내시험 결과와의 비교를 통해 확인하였다. 다양한 인자, 즉 결빙위치, 앵커볼트 초기 체결력의 크기 및 콘크리트 압축강도에 따른 해석을 수행하였으며, 그 결과를 제시하였다. 해석결과에 의하면, 매립전내 침투수의 결빙력은 균열손상의 가장 가능성 있는 직접적인 원인 중 하나로 간주될 수 있음을 확인하였다. 또한, 외측매립전의 결빙력이 내측 매립전 보다 작은 것으로 나타났으나 그 차이는 크지 않았다.
