Accurate calculation of the vehicle load is the foundation for the middle and small bridge safety. Longitudinal influence line and transverse distribution coefficient are used in traditional calculation method of vehicle load. This method brings a little big error because of the simplification. A new method based on influence surface is offered in this paper. The analysis results show that the new method can meet more accurate demand.

Since the main beams of a prestressed concrete hollow slab beam Highway Bridge stored for too long, in order to assess its bearing capacity, static loading test and bearing capacity evaluation of single beam was conducted. The hollow slab beam at the locations where the transverse distribution coefficient is biggest was chose for testing, and the transverse distribution coefficient at midspans of the slab beam was calculated by the hinged slab method. By comparing the theoretical and measured values of displacement and stain at key points of the beam, structural performance of the beam was finally evaluated. The test results showed that both the strength and stiffness of the beam was conforming to the requirements of the specification and able to satisfy normal use requirements in serviceability limit state.

In order to calculate the internal force of prefabricated skew-plate bridge (PSPB), the force state of PSPB with different skew angles is analyzed based on finite element technique. For the side slab, the value of load transverse influence lines of PSPB with different skew angles is obtained, at the same time, the relation between load transverse distribution coefficient and skew angle has been studied. Then a practical formula is derived according to the contrast curve. The comparison diagram of internal force between PSPB and main bridge with the same deck width is established, and a modified formula is deduced. This process provides a new idea on calculation of PSPB, and simplifies the design of PSPB.

IntroductionSeveral methods of mounting emulsion for radioautography at the electron microscopic level have been reported. From the viewpoint of quantitative radioautography, however, there are many critical problems in the procedure to produce radioautographs. For example, it is necessary to apply and develop emulsions in several experimental groups under an identical condition. Moreover, it is necessary to treat a lot of grids at the same time in the dark room for statistical analysis. Since the complicated process and technical difficulties in these procedures are inadequate to conduct a quantitative analysis of many radioautographs at once, many factors may bring about unexpected results. In order to improve these complicated procedures, a simplified dropping method for mass production of radioautographs under an identical condition was previously reported. However, this procedure was not completely satisfactory from the viewpoint of emulsion homogeneity. This paper reports another improved procedure employing wire loops.

To bring out details in the fractured surface of a frozen sample in the freeze fracture/freeze-etch technique,the sample or part of it is warmed to enhance water sublimation.One way to do this is to raise the temperature of the entire sample to about -100°C to -90°C. In this case sublimation rates can be calculated by using plots such as Fig.1 (Talmon and Thomas),or by simplified formulae such as that given by Menold and Liittge. To achieve higher rates of sublimation without heating the entire sample a radiative heater can be used (Echlin et al.). In the present paper a simplified method for the calculation of the rates of sublimation under a constant heat flux F [W/m2] at the surface of the sample from a heater placed directly above the sample is described.
