Analytical Expressions

In this paper, vibration theory is used to deduce vertical vibration’s analytical expressions of Euler- Bernoulli beam traveled by moving loads. In the analytical expression, the influences of the train’s travelling speed ,the mode of vibration ,the mass and rigidity of beam itself and the damping ratio of the system are considered comprehensively. Then the calculating program is made with MATLAB to analyze the dynamic response of a bridge as an illustrative example, so as to check the correctness of the analytical solution. Then a 32 meters simply supported beam traversed by moving loads of 8 ICE3 motor cars is analyzed. The calculation results show that the analysis method in this paper can really give accurate results to the beam subjected to arbitrarily spacing loads . The analytical expressions can be applied to preliminary design of railway bridges and assessment of the expected maximum vibration levels under high-speed trains.

Vertical Impact

Impact forces analysis in heel-toe running is often used to examine the reduction of impact forces for different running shoes and/or running techniques. Body mass is reported to be a dominant predictor of vertical impact force peaks. However, it is not evident whether this finding is only true for the real body mass or whether it is also true for additional masses attached to the body (e.g., running with additional weight or heavy shoes). The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of additional mass on vertical impact force peaks and running style. Nineteen subjects (9 males, 10 females) with a mean mass of 74.2 kg/56.2 kg (SD = 10.0 kg and 6.0 kg) volunteered to participate in this study. Additional masses were attached to the shoe (.05 and .1 kg), the tibia (.2, .4, .6 kg), and the hip (5.9 and 10.7 kg). Force plate measurements and high-speed film data were analyzed. In this study the vertical impact force peaks, Fzi, were not affected by additional masses, the vertical active force peaks, Fza, were only affected by additional masses greater than 6 kg, and the movement was only different in the knee angle at touchdown, ϵ0, for additional masses greater than .6 kg. The results of this study did not support findings reported earlier in the literature that body mass is a dominant predictor of external vertical impact force peaks.

Anchor Systems

Quick-hardening railway track was developed to rapidly convert old-style ballast track to slab track in order to improve its maintainability and ride comfort. On bridges, quick-hardening track is applied in a segmented structure to reduce the temperature constraint, and anchors at the centers of the segments securely couple the track to the bridge. In this study, an anchor system is proposed that facilitates fast construction, and two designs for the proposed anchor systems are provided along with experimental test results of the same. Two anchor system designs were developed to allow for the maximum possible longitudinal and transverse loads in high-speed railways while considering the frictional resistance between the track slab and bridge deck. The biaxial shear capacity of each design was investigated experimentally, and the structural capacity for biaxial shear loads was evaluated using an elliptical curve to represent the longitudinal and transverse shear capacities. The minimum friction coefficient was determined based on the results of the evaluation to minimize damage to the anchor. The results obtained from the experiments confirmed that the proposed anchor systems possess sufficient shear capacity for application on high-speed railway bridges.
