The Analysis of Vibration for Ballastless Track-Bridge Base on a Hybrid FE-SEA Method

In this study, the methods for combining statistical energy analysis (SEA) and the finite element method (FEM) for the vibration analysis of structures are studied. Using the two methods simultaneously isnt entirely extend a primarily low frequency method, the finite element method, and high frequency method, SEA, to the mid frequency region are addressed. This approach is intended to extend the frequency range for a FEM based vibration analysis . A new finite element elementl for elevated slab ballastless track is proposed in which the new model can be used for modeling the track structural constituents of elevated slab ballastless track. Using finite element method and Hamilton theory, the coupled equation of vehicle-track-bridge can be established. In calculating example, both the rail displacement induced by single four-layer beam model. Specifically, it showed that the method yields very good result and high performance in the numerical example of previous research.
