Referred the vehicle-track coupling dynamics theory [1] and the vertical dynamic analysis models of Bridge-Subgrade transition developed by Zhai [2] ,Wang [3] and others [4]. This article takes account of the interaction between different structural layers in the subgrade system further by using the dynamic ballastless track model and finally establishes a space dynamic numerical model of the vehicle-track-subgrade coupled system. The dynamic response of the coupled system is analyzed when the speed of the train is 350km/h and the transition is filled with graded broken stones mixed with cement of 3%. Results show that the setting forms of Bridge-Subgrade transition have little effect on the dynamic responses, so designers can choose it on account of the practical situation. Due to the location away from abutment about 5m has greater deformation; the stiffness within 5m should be designed alone. Based on the study from vehicle-track dynamics, we suggest that the maximum allowable track deflection angle is 0.9‰ and K30190Mpa within 5m behind the abutment.

With the rapid development of high-speed railways, wheel and rail wear has become increasingly serious due to the acute wheel-rail interaction. During the operation of high speed vehicle, complicated wheel-rail contact force will lead to wheel profile wear, which will worsen the dynamic performance of vehicle system, or even influence the safe operation of vehicles. In order to ensure the vehicle dynamic performance, right now regularly wheel re-profiling has to be adopted. Therefore, the study of wheel profile wear and its effect on vehicle dynamic performance is very important [1,. The purpose of the paper is to study the variation characteristics of vehicle dynamic performance with respect to the wheel profile wear through numerical simulation and field test.

Although ballastless track has such advantages as less maintenance and high stability, its big rigidity results in a strong wheel/rail dynamic interaction. In order to study a reasonable stiffness and uneven settlement limit for ballastless track and to optimize the dynamic performance of ballastless track under condition of high-speed running, vehicle together with ballastless track was viewed as an entire coupling system in this study. By adopting numerical simulation, we studied how the stiffness of foundation under rail and uneven settlement of subgrade influence the wheel/rail dynamic interaction. The results show that the reasonable stiffness of foundation under rail is within a range of 20∼30kN/mm, accordingly with a rail deformation within 1.3 ∼ 1.7mm. Through its dynamic analysis under different wavelengths and amplitudes, the uneven settlement of subgrade should be ≤L/1000.

In order to reduce the ground-borne vibration caused by wheel/rail interaction in the ballastless track of high speed railways, viscoelastic asphalt concrete materials are filled between the track and the subgrade to attenuate wheel/rail force. A high speed train-track-subgrade vertical coupled dynamic model is developed in the frequency domain. In this model, coupling effects between the vehicle and the track and between the track and the subgrade are considered. The full vehicle is represented by some rigid body models of one body, two bogies, and four wheelsets connected to each other with springs and dampers. The track and subgrade system is considered as a multilayer beam model in which layers are connected to each other with springs and damping elements. The vertical receptance of the rail is discussed and the receptance contribution of the wheel/rail interaction is investigated. Combined with the pseudoexcitation method, a solution of the random dynamic response is presented. The random vibration responses and transfer characteristics of the ballastless track and subgrade system are obtained under track random irregularity when a high speed vehicle runs through. The influences of asphalt concrete layer’s stiffness and vehicle speed on track and subgrade coupling vibration are analyzed.

Background: With the rapid development of the high-speed railway, the dynamic performance such as running stability and safety of the high-speed train is increasingly important. This paper focuses on the dynamic performance of high-speed Electric Multiple Unit (EMU), especially the dynamic characteristics of the bogie frame and car body. Various patents have been discussed in this article. Objective: To develop the Multi-Body System (MBS) model of EMU, verify whether the dynamic performance meets the actual operation requirements, and provide some useful information for dynamics and structural design of the proposed EMU. Methods: According to the technical characteristics of a typical EMU, a MBS model is established via SIMPACK, and the measured data of China high-speed railway is taken as the excitation of track random irregularity. To test the dynamic performance of the EMU, including the stability and safety, some evaluation indexes such as wheel-axle lateral forces, wheel-axle lateral vertical forces, derailment coefficients and wheel unloading rates are also calculated and analyzed in detail. Results: The MBS model of EMU has better dynamic performance especially curving performance, and some evaluation indexes of the stability and safety have also reached China’s high-speed railway standards. Conclusion: The effectiveness of the proposed MBS model is verified, and the dynamic performance of the MBS model can meet the design requirements of high-speed EMU.
