Two-/three-dimensional hybrid model of the thermomechanical behaviour of disc brakes

Prediction of the surface temperature in friction braking systems is the main problem in the analysis of thermal dissipation and surface degradations such as wear, phase transformation, cracks, etc. The first difficulty of the thermal prediction is presented by the complex interactions between the thermal, mechanical and tribological behaviour. The second problem is due to the multiscale aspect, from the macroscopic response of the disc and brake pads (conduction, distortions, etc.) to local surface effects (surface roughness, wear debris, phase changes, etc.). This paper aims to propose a macrostructural model of the thermomechanical behaviour of the disc brake, taking into account the real three-dimensional geometry of the disc–pad couple. Contact surface variations, distortions and wear are taken into account. Real body geometry and thermoelastoplastic modelling of the disc material are specially introduced. Such a model aims to give predictions of the thermal gradients varying with time and of the thermomechanical response of the components. Predictions of the temperature distributions are compared with experimental measurements obtained by thermographs and thermocouples. Such a model seems to be a suitable base for the study of the thermal dissipation and the thermomechanical behaviour and for the introduction of local friction effects. read more read less

An approach to evaluate the service life of rubber springs used in rail vehicle suspensions
Robert Keqi Luo1, W X Wu1, P. W. Cook1, WJ Mortel1

Abstract:

The stress-endurance (S-N) method has been widely used in metal fatigue in the railway industry over many years. However, when this method is applied to rubber-like materials, it seems not as successful as when it is applied to metallic materials.

However, when this method is applied to rubber-like materials, it seems not as successful as when it is applied to metallic materials. Recently, an integrated fatigue evaluation programme has been carried out with the aim of improving the design of antivibration components in response to the increasing demands of the rail operating environment. This programme will also make simulations more reliable and relevant to industrial applications, especially for the fatigue design of rubber springs used in rail vehicle suspensions. The continuum mechanics (total life) approach has been used to characterize the fatigue life in terms of the cyclic stress range (S-N curve). It is suggested that the effective stress, sigma(f), can be used as a parameter (taking three principal stress ranges into consideration) to evaluate fatigue failure. The initial verification of this approach has been carried out on two types of rubber spring. The results have shown good agreement between the fatigue test of the components and the simulation based on this approach. read more read less

Drive-by detection of railway track stiffness variation using in-service vehicles

Railway track stiffness is an important track property which can help with the identification of maintenance related problems. Railway track stiffness can currently be measured using stationary equipment or specialised low-speed vehicles. The concept of using trains in regular service to measure track stiffness has the potential to provide inexpensive daily ‘drive-by’ track monitoring to complement data collected by less-frequent monitoring techniques. A method is proposed in this paper for the detection of track stiffness variation through an analysis of vehicle accelerations resulting from the vehicle–track dynamic interaction. The cross-entropy optimisation technique is applied to determine the track stiffness profile, which generates a vehicle response that best fits the measured vertical accelerations of a railway carriage bogie.Numerical validation of the concept is achieved by using a two-dimensional half-bogie dynamic model, representing a railway vehicle, to infer a global track stiffness profile... read more read less

I spent hours with MS word for reformatting. It was frustrating - plain and simple. With SciSpace, I can draft my manuscripts and once it is finished I can just submit. In case, I have to submit to another journal it is really just a button click instead of an afternoon of reformatting.
