Geometry model is created in creo software.
And same file imported into ANSYS.
Here air domain is created in ANSYS.
Separate concentrated fluid domain is created arroung the bridge PIER.
final domain size is 50m in length and 30 m in width.
Total pressure plot of bridge pier
we can see the distribution of the pressure around the bridge pier section in the domain.
The pressure contours vary around the section of bridge pier.
We can easily observe that the concentration of pressure at the
nose of the bridge section at the front is much higher than any other place.
Whereas the nose of the bridge at the wake is subjected to a suction or negative pressure.
Here maximum deformation is shown in red region and maximum
deformation value is 0.0009 mm
minimum deformation is observed at supporting region.
Which shown in blue color.
Deformation of bridge piers
Conclusion
Structural analysis:
Stresses and deformation increases linearly up 2.5 m
height to 12 m height.
Stresses and deformation increases from 3.8 m width
to 2.6 width. minimum deformation and stresses are
observed at 2.6 width and 2.5 m height of bride pier as
considered as optimum parameters of pier.
Modal analysis is performed to optimized model.
Here two types of elements in ANSYS considered and
compared it. Less deviation is observed.
Wind analysis:
In this present work, three dimensional bridge piers are analysed with
considering air flow.
Here in Visakhapatnam region 50m /s.
To create three dimensional bridge deck, PTC CREO 2.0 modelling
software is used and for the FLUENT analysis ANSYS is used.
After the analysis are performed, 2.11 N/m2 intensity of pressure is
observed on left side of bridge pier., Because it is a portion to face the
wind load.
Fluid structural interface analysis is performed on bridge pier with
considering the fixed supported boundary conditions of bottom end
Maximum deformations and bending stresses are found from the
analysis at these are in allowable limit to avoid the failures.
