Resistance of Plane Lock Gates Subjected to Ship Impact
This paper presents the analysis of lock gates submitted to ship impacts. This problem is generally approached in two different ways: firstly, by the use of an equivalent static method, in which the impact is modeled by a quasi-static force, or by the use of dynamic numerical simulations, during which the progress of the ship and the temporal evolution of the impact force is taken into account. The second approach requires extensive calculation and modeling efforts, which are generally prohibitive in the early design stage.
A simplified analytical method is presented to evaluate the resistance of such structures when impacted by a ship. The principle is based in the super-element method, firstly evaluating the resistance of the lock gate in local deformation mode, assuming crushing only of certain structural elements in a limited zone, located in the close vicinity of the impact. Secondly, the entire resistance of the lock gate is calculated, considering the global deformation mode, assuming a bending of the entire structure.
The scientific objective is to extend this approach to lock gates which cannot currently be treated with this method, in particular those where the layout of the stiffening elements can be highly irregular. This implies to study thoroughly the global deformation modes of the structure and the plastic mechanisms involved in the energy dissipation, in order to predict a correct displacement field and resistance force.
