Energy Harvesting From Vertical Deflection of Railroad Track Using a Hydraulic System for Improving Railroad Track Safety

Volume 3: Design and Manufacturing, 2011
Grade crossings are locations of significant interest for prevention of collisions, injuries and fatalities in the railroad transportation system. Another area of concern is track maintenance, since derailments resulting from mechanically deficient track structures can cause significant endangerment to property and lives.

Analyses for Lateral Deflection of Railroad Track Under Quasi-Static Loading

ASME 2013 Rail Transportation Division Fall Technical Conference, 2013
This paper describes analyses to examine the lateral deflection of railroad track subjected to quasi-static loading. Rails are assumed to behave as beams in bending. Movement of the track in the lateral plane is constrained by idealized resistance characteristics, while movement in the vertical plane is resisted by a continuous, linear and elastic ...

Dynamics of Track Deflection Associated with the Passage of Tropical Cyclones over a Mesoscale Mountain

Monthly Weather Review, 2006
Abstract In this study, the fifth-generation Pennsylvania State University–National Center for Atmospheric Research (PSU–NCAR) Mesoscale Model (MM5) was used to simulate Supertyphoon Bilis (in 2000) and Typhoon Toraji (in 2001) in order to investigate the dynamics of track deflection caused by the Central Mountain Range (CMR) of Taiwan ...
