Simple dynamic model of predicting the axle-box acceleration when trains pass through the rupture part of rails

open access: yesNihon Kikai Gakkai ronbunshu, 2021
In this paper, the simple dynamic model for calculation of the axle-box acceleration (ABA) is established for conveniently detecting rail breakage on trains.

Research on Cumulative Deformation Characteristics of Subgrade Filling under Cyclic Train Loading

open access: yesShock and Vibration, 2022
The smoothness of high-speed railway is extremely strict. As an important part of the high-speed railway foundation, the subgrade structure has strict deformation requirements.

Railway track design & degradation [PDF]

open access: yesMATEC Web of Conferences, 2018
The long-term behaviour of railway track has attracted increasing attention in recent years. Improvements in long-term structural performance reduce demands for maintenance and increase the continuous availability of railway lines. The focus of this paper is on the prediction of the sensitivity of a track design to long-term deterioration in terms of ...

Optimisation of grease application to railway tracks [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the Institution of Mechanical Engineers, Part F: Journal of Rail and Rapid Transit, 2017
Trackside lubricators are designed to deliver grease to passing wheel flanges to reduce wheel and rail wear on curves. Ensuring that they are set up to deliver sufficient grease for the range of vehicles passing a site can be a challenge. For example, vehicle dynamics modelling and site investigations have shown that the wheels of passenger vehicles do

The interaction between railway vehicle dynamics and track lateral alignment [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Track geometry deteriorates with traffic flow, thus it needs to be regularly restored using tamping or other method. As the deterioration is mainly in the vertical direction this aspect has been widely studied and models for its analysis developed ...

An investigation of sleeper voids using a flexible track model integrated with railway multi-body dynamics [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
This article describes a flexible track system model (FTSM) that represents the track structure for a typical ballasted track, taking into account the flexibility of the rails, the sleeper mass and the resilience of the pad/fastening elements, as well as

Assessing the Role of Longitudinal Variability of Vertical Track Stiffness in the Long-Term Deterioration [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
The performance of the railway system in terms of dynamic loading is depending mainly on the track support conditions. Usually, the track stiffness is used as the main parameter to describe the support conditions and is defined as the ratio of the load ...

A mathematical model of the rail track presented as a bar on elastic and dissipative supports under the influence of moving loads

open access: yesMATEC Web of Conferences, 2017
At present, the most common track model is the one in which rails are presented as bars of infinite length rested on continuous elastic foundation. However, some specialists consider the model to be rather ideal for railways in terms of track and the ...
