Taking the case of 18# turnout (350km/h) laid on 6×32m continuous girder, a dynamic model for coupling system of vehicle and jointless turnout on bridge was established to analyze the factors that affected dynamic performance of jointless turnout on bridge, and several aspects were taken into consideration, i.e. train’s running quality, rail stress of turnout, vibration of turnout and bridge, and deformation, etc. It is shown that influenced by vibration and deformation of bridge, the train, turnout and bridge form a coupling vibration system, whose dynamic responses are stronger than those caused by train/turnout interaction on subgrade. Wheel/rail contact of turnout zone (especially the frog) has great effect on dynamic responses of jointless turnout on bridge, thus the nose rail height of frog should be optimized to mitigate the wheel load transition and its longitudinal gradient. When a train is passing a jointless turnout on bridge, a reasonable vertical stiffness for bridge is the key to keep its safety and comfort; as for the 32m continuous girder, the ratio of deflection to span should be ≤1/9000 under the ZK load (Chinese standard).

In order to study dynamic behavior of vehicle-turnout-bridge coupling system, a vehicle-turnout-bridge dynamic analysis model is established by employing the dynamic finite element method (FEM). When No.18 crossover turnouts(with a speed of 350km/h) are laid symmetrically on the 6×32m continuous beam, influences of turnout/bridge relative position and wheel/rail contact relation in turnout zone on the system dynamic responses are analyzed. The result shows that: wheel/rail contact of turnout zone (especially the frog) has great effect on dynamic responses of turnout on bridge, thus the nose rail height of frog should be optimized to mitigate the wheel load transition and its longitudinal gradient. In terms of the 32m-span continuous beam, the best relative position is frog part of turnout arranged in the range of 1/8 and 1/4 of span.

Railway Turnout

Railway turnout, an integrated mechatronics equipment of track technology, is one of key equipments that control the running speed of high-speed railway. During the conversion of turnout, the friction, inclusion of foreign matter and deficient displacement of conversion caused by its own structural characteristics may lead to severe wheel/rail impact. In order to study the influence of conversion deviation on safety and comfort of a train during passing the turnout, train/turnout dynamic model was applied. Taking No.18 turnout on a Passenger Dedicated Line (PDL) with 350km/h as a case study, when the train passed it, the influences of its deficient displacement and inclusion of foreign matter on the following dynamic responses were studied, i.e. wheel load distribution, wheel flange force, dynamic stress of rail, wheel unloading rate, derailment coefficient, as well as the lateral displacements of switch rail and nose rail, etc. Result shows that: (1) the deficient displacement and the inclusion of foreign matter will severely influence the normal operation of the turnout, so the safety and comfort during the train passing through turnout may be affected; (2) During the conversion of turnout, its deficient displacement should be controlled properly, and the foreign matter should be removed during routine maintenance, moreover, a reliable detection system should be set.

Track Stiffness

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 this paper, a great deal of research undertaken to study the dynamic responses of a high-speed railway bridge subjected to moving trains. Based on coupling vibration analysis of a rigid frame-continuous bridge, the effect on the kinetic characteristics induced by track irregularities, temperature and creep is discussed. The results show that great changes occur in parameters of trains such as rate of wheel load reduction, the vertical acceleration and the vertical Sperling index when considering the effect of temperature and creep compared with regarding track irregularities only. It is recommended that the combination of track irregularities, temperature and creep is essential to evaluate dynamic feature of train-bridge coupled system for high-speed railways.

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.

The general track spectrum of Chinese main railway lines (ChinaRLS) and the track spectrum of American railway lines (AmericaRLS) are compared in terms of character of frequency domain, statistical property of time domain samples and dynamic performance. That the wavelength range of the ChinaRLS, which is characterized by the three levels according to the class of railway line, is less than AmericaRLS at common wave band of 1~50m is calculated. Simultaneously, the mean square values of two kinds of track spectra are provided at the detrimental wave bands of 5~10m, 10~20m, and so on. The time-histories of ChinaRLS and AmericaRLS are simulated according to the trigonometric method, and the digital statistical nature of simulated time samples is analyzed. With inputting the two kinds of time-histories into the vehicle-railway system, the comparative analysis of the two kinds of dynamic performances for ChinaRLS and AmericaRLS is done in terms of car body acceleration, rate of wheel load reduction, wheel/rail force, and the dynamic responses of track structure. The result shows that ChinaRLS can characterize the feature of the Chinese track irregularity better than AmericaRLS, the track irregularity with the ChinaRLS of 200km/h is superior to the AmericaRLS, and the track irregularity with the ChinaRLS of 160km/h corresponds to with the sixth of AmericaRLS.

Design Speed

<p>At present, Chinese high-speed railway operating mileage has exceeded 20 thousand km, and the proportion of the bridge is nearly 50%. Moreover, high-speed railway design speed is constantly improving. Therefore, controlling the deformation of the bridge structure strictly is particularly important to train speed-up as well as to ensure the smoothness of the line. This paper, based on the field test, shows the vertical and transverse absolute displacements of bridge structure by field collection. What’s more, resonance speed and dynamic coefficient of bridge were studied. The results show that: the horizontal and vertical stiffness of the bridge can meet the requirements of <b>Chinese “high-speed railway design specification” (HRDS)</b>, and the structure design can be optimized. However, the dynamic coefficient may be greater than the specification suggested value. And the simply supported beam with CRTSII ballastless track has second-order vertical resonance velocity 306km/h and third-order transverse resonance velocity 312km/h by test results, which are all coincide with the theoretical resonance velocity.</p>

Dynamic Performance Analysis

The dynamic performance of continuous girder under the train in a series of speed is studied through examples, and the main conclusions are given in the following. The resonance mechanism of continuous girder is similar to simply supported beam. The vehicle wheel load forms regular moving load series, which induces periodical action and resonance of the bridge. The damping ratio of bridge itself has less effect on the amplitude at the loading stage, but significant effects appear when the load departs from the bridge. The count of continuous spans also has less impact on the dynamic coefficients, so three continuous spans can be adopted for calculation and analysis. Span and fundamental frequency have significant influence on dynamic coefficients of bridge structures. To extend the span of the bridge structure can reduce the dynamic coefficient while keeping its frequency invariant. The fundamental frequencies of different bridges are corresponding to certain resonant speeds, which calls for the attention in the design.
