This paper first systematically reviews the research on shield and TBM construction ventilation technology in the tunnel (hole) and coal mine roadway engineering; then, it briefly introduces the general situation of the main and auxiliary inclined shaft project of Kekegai Coal Mine and makes a theoretical analysis on the ventilation design principle and ventilation mode selection of the project according to the general situation of the project. Based on the above analysis, a variety of designs and comparisons of construction ventilation schemes are carried out, and it is decided that the two-stage single head forced ventilation scheme with replacement fan is adopted for both inclined shafts; then the selected ventilation scheme is checked theoretically; finally, the ventilation effect is tested. The field practice shows that the ventilation effect is good.

The fracture phenomenon of fastener clips occurs frequently in the sections with serious rail corrugation of high-speed railway, which brings huge potential safety hazards to track service and driving safety. In order to prevent the vibration fatigue fracture of fastener clips in high-speed railway, a dynamic vibration absorber (DVA) for clips is proposed in this paper to suppress the primary sensitive frequency of the corresponding resonant of clips. Firstly, based on the optimal design theory of DVA, a parameters design method of ring-shaped DVA suitable for clips is proposed. Secondly, the vibration characteristics of the high-speed railway fastener system are investigated, and the main reason for the fastener clips fracture is analyzed by simulation analysis combined with filed test. Then, focusing on the primary resonant frequency of clips, the vibration reduction effect of the ring-shaped DVA is analyzed. The results show that the ring-shaped DVA can change the natural frequency of the clip system, reduce the vibration response in the range of the original resonant frequency, and avoid the resonance phenomenon. Finally, the influences of mass ratio, frequency ratio, and damping ratio on the vibration reduction effect are analyzed, and the effectiveness of the parameters design method of ring-shaped DVA proposed in this paper is further proved. The research results can provide methodological support for the anti-breakage design of high-speed railway fastener clips. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Based on vehicle-track coupled dynamic theory, a three-dimensional asymmetric vehicle-track coupling vibration model is developed to investigate the effect of voided elastic two-block sleepers on vehicle and track system dynamic responses. For the vehicle system, one car body, two frames, and four wheel sets are assumed to be rigid, with 35 degrees of freedom (DOF). For the track system, the rails and the concrete two-block sleepers are the main vibration components. The rails are modelled as Timoshenko beams, and the concrete two-block sleepers are assumed to be rigid mass with vertical and lateral movement. The pads under the rails and the rubber boots under the sleepers provide greater vertical and lateral elasticity for the track. The Hertz nonlinear elastic contact theory is used to calculate the normal wheel/rail force. The wheel/rail tangent creep force is first calculated using Kalker’s linear creep theory and then modified by the Shen-Hedrick-Elkins theory. The results show that the asymmetric voided elastic two-block sleepers have greater effects on the dynamic responses for fasteners and sleepers than on the car body and the wheel/rail forces under measured geometric irregularity and random irregularity. Two or more voided sleepers will greatly affect the vehicle running safety. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
