Sample pages of High speed railway track dynamics: models, algorithms and applications (ISBN:9787030534866)

With increasing train speed, axle loads, traffic density, and the wider engineering applications of new vehicles and track structures, the interaction between vehicle and track has become more complex.Accordingly, the train running safety and stability are more affected by increased dynamic stresses.Dynamic loads acted on the tracks by vehicles fall into three categories: moving axle loads, dynamic loads of fixed points, and moving dynamic loads.Axle loads, due to their moving loading points, are dynamic loads for the track—subgrade—ground system, though irrelevant to the vehicle dynamics and constant in size.As soon as the speed of moving axle loads approaches the critical velocity of the track, the track is subjected to violent vibration.Dynamic loads of fixed points come from the impacts of vehicles passing by the fixed irregularity on track, such as rail joints, the welding slag of continuously welded rail and turnout frogs.Moving dynamic loads are induced by wheel—rail contact irregularities.The dynamics analysis of the train—track system lays a good foundation for investigating the complicated wheel—rail relationship and interaction mechanism, which provides essential references for guiding and optimizing vehicle and track structure designs.
1.1 A Review of Track Dynamics Research
Up to the present, scholars both at home and abroad have achieved a wealth of research findings about the establishment of track dynamics models and numerical methods.Studies on track dynamics models have experienced a development process from simple to complex.Historically, moving loads and vehicle structures have been the earliest practical issues in structure dynamics, especially in the train—track system.Knothe and Grassie (1–3) published several papers concerning track dynamics and vehicle—track interaction in frequency domain.Mathews (4, 5) found out solutions to the dynamic problems of any moving loads on infinite elastic foundation beam by means of Fourier transform method (FTM) and the moving coordinate system.The Fourier transform method (FTM), as a method of frequency domain analysis, was applied by Trochanis (6), Ono and Yamada (7) in some related studies.Jezequel (8) simplified the track structure into infinite Euler–Bernoulli beam on elastic foundation, regarding the train loads as concentrated force of uniform motion and considering its rotation and transverse shear effects.Through modal superposition, Timoshenko (9) figured out the governing differential equation for moving loads on simply supported beams in time domain, while Warburton solved this equation by using analytical methods, and he also proved the deflection of beams would reach a maximum under moving loads at a certain speed (10).Cai et al.(11), by modal superposition, studied the dynamic response of infinite beams over periodic bearings under moving loads.
