✦ Synopsis


The vertical dynamic behaviour is investigated for a railway bogie moving on a rail which is discretely supported, via railpads, by sleepers resting on an elastic foundation. The transient interaction problem is numerically solved by use of an extended state-space vector approach in conjunction with a complex modal superposition for the track. Application examples are given in which the influences of three types of practically important imperfections in the compound vehicle/track system are investigated. The first is a sinusoidal corrugation of the railhead and the second a skid flat on the wheel tread (a wheelflat). The third imperfection is a case where a single sleeper has lost its support due to erosion of the ballast. Physical explanations of the calculated interaction behaviour are given.

Passing trains generate vibrations in the soil, caused by the train response to track irregularities. This is particularly the case in soft-soil regions, where the surface wavespeed is comparable to the train speed. Interaction between ground vibrations and the train can give rise to di!erent e!ects

A dynamic computational model for the vehicle and track coupling system is developed by means of finite element method in this paper. In numerical implementation, the vehicle and track coupling system is divided into two parts; lower structure and upper structure. The vehicle as the upper structure
