    With Jarret Structures Technology the alpha value can be between 0.05 > > 0.8

    The graph shows influence of the alpha value on the damping performance.

    As we can see, an alpha value (0.1) provides a more reactive reaction at low

    velocity that increases the dissipated energy.

    The second advantage of alpha 0.1 is to limit the maximum reaction when the

    velocity grows up, this point is very interesting to limit this maximum into the

    structures at high velocity.

    A Jarret Structures damper is designed to dissipate seismic or dynamic energy on a structure. Douce-Hydros/Jarret Structures ASR series dampers work in tension and compression. The dampers can reduce longitudinal and transversal or vertical displacement of a deck. They can be installed in different type of structures, for example, longitudinally between the deck and the abutment, or in transverse between the deck and the pier structure of a bridge. They can equally be installed in a building for brace or base isolation. Seismic energy is dissipated into the damper unit instead of being dissipated in the concrete or steel structure.

    Working Principle

    A Douce-Hydros/Jarret Structures viscous fluid damper works on the principle of the rapid passage of viscous fluid through a narrow orifice or port generates high resistance, which dissipates a large amount of energy as heat.

    F = C .V Behavior law:

    F = Pressure x Surface

    F = (P1-P2) x Sdiff

    (P1-P2) depends on flow into vf, fixed by the

    velocity.

    P1, P2: internal pressure into the chambers

    Vf: fluid velocity into the gap

    A Shock Transmission Unit (STU), also called Dynamic Connector is designed to be connected between bridge structure components to form a rigid link under dynamic loads induced by forces such as vehicle braking and earthquakes. At the same time, the structure will be able to move freely under slow applied loads such as thermal expansion and creep shrinkage. The unit is connected between elements of bridge structures at expansion joints, or near the bearings between the superstructure and the substructure. The use of STU allows the load sharing of a suddenly applied force.

    Velocity 0 Valve open P2=P1 Force 0 Velocity > 0 Valve closed P2 P1 Force very high

    Working Principle

    These dampers work on the principle of rapid passage of viscous fluid through a narrow gap, orifice or port, generates only minor resistance. A STU should block the deck of a bridge during a quick motion and behave like a spring with a very high stiffness. At the same time, the Shock Transmission Unit should deliver a low reaction force during the slow displacements of thermal expansion or contraction of the deck.

    Douce-Hydros/Jarret Structures AB series is made with a steel reservoir, with a piston rod sliding through it. On the piston rod, there is a fixed head, which separates the reservoir into two chambers. When the unit is filled with silicon fluid, at rest, the pressure is the same in both chambers. When the velocity goes up, the silicone must pass into a clever valve that generates pressure.

    Temperature and Aging:

    A variation of the outside temperature, which can range from - 55C to + 80C, does not change the amount of energy dissipated per cycle. There is no ageing of the silicone fluid. Douce-Hydros/Jarret Structures AB series have been tested in very severe environmental conditions, including fire.

    Working Principle

    The PSD works on the principle of rapid passage of viscous fluid through a narrow orifice or port generates high resistance, which dissipates a large amount of energy. In order to avoid the displacement before reaching a certain force level, Douce-Hydro/Jarret Structures can define a preloaded value, F0. Before reaching this value it is not possible to compress the unit. After the dynamic compression of the PSD, the unit has the ability to return to its original position due to the integrated spring function. For example, this return force value is defined in order to overcome the friction force of the sliding pot bearings. In order to generate this damping and spring function in two directions, a double-acting PSD is used.

    Performance

    The graph below shows the performance generated by the PSD during a dynamic event at nominal velocity V= 0.2 m/sec. The value F0 is the preload value and K is the stiffness value of the spring. The value F0 is defined in order to overcome the friction of the pot bearings during a dynamic event. The unit is designed to be used in compression in both directions.

    A variation of the outside temperature, which can range from - 55C to + 80C, does not change the amount of energy dissipated per cycle. There is no ageing of silicone fluid. Douce-Hydros/Jarret Structures BC series PSDs have been tested in extreme environmental conditions, including fire.

    Installation:

    PSDs are delivered with stainless steel plates which hold the PSD in the correct position for concreting. The PSD unit has to be bolted to the lower face of the deck and then the temporary holding bars connecting the stainless steel plates are removed by cutting them.

    Base isolation

    Application on individual buildings

    Working Principle:

    The base isolation is a solution to protect individual or small buildings. This system is a combination using isolators (Elastomeric plot) and dampers.

    The isolators reduce the force but increase the displacements. The dampers allow reducing the displacements by dissipating energy.

    With this combination, the building structure is protected and the force and displacement transmitted at the foundation are low.

    - Isolator ==> Reduce the rigidity

    Dampers

    Regardless of the type construction, Douce-Hydro/Jarret Structures creates dampers which dissipate a large part of the kinetic energy, allowing the displacement of the deck without damaging the abutments and the structure. Protection by dampers:

    - Longitudinally on abutments - Transversally on the piers.

  • Page 20

    Let consider a bridge (4 spans, Length = 300m, Weight = 10000 t) to protect against a longitudinal earthquake with the following data:

    Soil type: EC8-B and PGA = 2m/s. The deck is supported by 5 identical piers (P1 to P5) with a longitudinal stiffness: Kp = 300MN/m

    If we put dampers in some piers, these units will dissipate a big part of the seismic energy and therefore, reduce the forces in the fix pier

    STU: Shock Transmission Units

    Applications

    Shock Transmission Units (STU) can be used for both steel and concrete structures. They are disposed on cable stayed and suspension bridges in order to eliminate large displacements of the deck during an earthquake. STU can equally be advised to elevate light rail structures as well as in bridge parapets to share collision forces through an expansion joint. For other civil engineering structures such as buildings, STU can provide additional rigidity in the frame structure. STU can also be used to strengthen adjacent buildings during a seismic event.

    The retrofit of existing steel truss railway bridges with STU can allow heavier trains and take the increasing braking forces without a change to the substructure. STU can be made to strengthen supporting piers which have been found inadequate due to increase in traction and braking forces, or which have sustained damage caused by corrosion.

    The large global development of the technology for stay cables has created a need for damping. Initial attempts to adapt commercial dampers failed to meet the specific requirements of the bridge industry because they were not appropriate for bridges. Douce-Hydro/Jarret Structures has developed a new generation of dampers in order to satisfy the special requirement of damping stay cables. Because long-term vibrations due to wind and rain create fatigue stress in the cables, the idea is to offer a very reliable unit which is able to smoothly damp vibrations without creating any additional stress to the structure.

    Working Principle

    The Douce-Hydros/Jarret Structures Cable Stay Dampers (CSD) works on the principle that rapid passage of viscous fluid through a narrow orifice or port, generates high resistance, which then dissipates a large amount of energy. The energy is dissipated in heat. In order to avoid any possible leakage, the body of the unit is made of a single stainless steel part. A piston head is moving through the viscous fluid, and the lamination of the fluid creates the viscous damping. A special developed seal installed on the top of the body allows for the long-term microscopic movement of the damper caused by the normal displacement of the deck.

    The behaviour law of the viscous damper is F= C.V. According to the specifications required of a particular application, Douce-Hydro/Jarret Structures can provide a value for the coefficient alpha which can range from 0.3 to 2. A pure linear damper F=C.V can also be provided.

    Longitudinal PSD on abutment (F = 2500 kN, Stroke = 50mm) High Speed railroad viaduct of Epenottes, France.

    A Preloaded Spring Damper (PSD) is a unit designed to dissipate seismic energy on structures such as bridges. The PSD reduces longitudinal and transversal displacement of the deck. Douce-Hydro/Jarret Structures can provide two types of PSD: working in tension/compression, or acting only in compression. Douce-Hydro/Jarret Structures can install the PSD compression type longitudinally between the deck and the abutment, or install a PSD tension/compression unit in transversal position between the deck and the pier structure. The PSD acts as a shear key which has the possibility to regenerate itself automatically after a dynamic event. The seismic energy is dissipated in the PSD unit instead of being displaced in a steel or concrete structure. Douce-Hydro/Jarret Structures can accommodate transversal and longitudinal seismic displacement, and at the same time take into account longitudinal displacement such as creep shrinkage and thermal expansion or contraction.

    Improvement in using

    PSD

    The PSD had 3 functions:

    Pier Deck

    In order to solve this problem, an

    elegant solution is to install between

    the deck and the pier a PSD.

    Before earthquake

    In the previous solutions, the central pier was fixed.

    Using STU or dampers help us to decrease shear in the fix pier but, when this pier is too stiff, their efficiency will be very weak. If the shear of the fix pier has to be decreased, we must consider another solution.

    The best idea of the new solution is the following: - If the central pier remains fix during the seismic oscillation of the deck, this pier, during earthquake, will have to move the deck, it will provide large shear forces in this pier (see drawing below).

    During earthquake

    After Earthquake

  • Page 26

    The PSD installed in P3 has to be able to fulfill the following mechanical requirements:

    - In service, the deck is submitted to forces such as frictions on sliding pot bearings (2.5% deck weight). Therefore, for this bridge, the devices preload must be 2500 kN.

    - This means that under any static horizontal force lower to 2500 kN, the device acts as a fix connection between the deck and the pier.

    During earthquake, as the seismic forces, higher than this preload, the device will act as an elastic link with a damping effect. In our example, we have installed a PSD in the central pier and we have let the 4 other piers free.

    A time history analysis has been achieved and gave the following result: Shear force on P3 = 3500 kN for a max device compression of 35 mm

    SZ

    (FP3 corresponds with the force applied on the central pier and F total is the amount of force applied on all the structure.)

    Shear in P3 was divided by approximately 2.2, compared to the best of the other solutions. In certain cases, the ratio can reach 5.
