Journal ArticleDOI
Fundamentals of vehicle–track coupled dynamics
TL;DR: In this article, a three-dimensional vehicle-track coupled dynamics model is developed in which a typical railway passenger vehicle is modelled as a 35-degree-of-freedom multi-body system.
Journal ArticleDOI
Two simple fast integration methods for large-scale dynamic problems in engineering
TL;DR: A new simple explicit two-step method and a new family of predictor–corrector integration algorithms are developed for use in the solution of numerical responses of dynamic problems, avoiding solving simultaneous linear algebraic equations in each time step.
Journal ArticleDOI
High-speed train-track-bridge dynamic interactions - Part I: theoretical model and numerical simulation
Wanming Zhai,H. Xia,Chengbiao Cai,Mangmang Gao,Xiaozhen Li,Xiangrong Guo,Nan Zhang,Kaiyun Wang +7 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present a framework to systematically investigate the high-speed train-track-bridge dynamic interactions, aiming to provide a method for analysing and assessing the running safety and the ride comfort of trains passing through bridges.
Journal ArticleDOI
A Detailed Model for Investigating Vertical Interaction between Railway Vehicle and Track
Wanming Zhai,Xiang Sun +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a detailed model is developed to investigate the vertical interactions between railway vehicles and tracks, in which the vehicle subsystem is modelled as a multi-body system with 10 DOF running on the track with a constant velocity, and the track substructure as an infinite Euler beam supported on a discrete-continuous elastic foundation consisting of the three layers of rail, sleeper, and ballast.
Journal ArticleDOI
Modelling and experiment of railway ballast vibrations
TL;DR: In this article, a five-parameter model for analysis of railway ballast vibration is established based upon the hypothesis that the load-transmission from a sleeper to the ballast approximately coincides with the cone distribution.
