The stability of the high-speed running vehicle subjected to seismic excitations considering passengers' dynamics are considered. A vehicle consists of one body, two trucks and four wheel sets. A passenger is modeled by simple two degree of freedom vibration system. The equations of motion of the vehicle and passengers are calculated by Lagrangian equation of motion. Combining two models, the behavior of the vehicle subjected to actual seismic input considering passengers' dynamics are calculated by numerical simulation. The stability of the vehicle is evaluated by using the risk rate of rollover. We investigate the possibility of the rollover of the vehicle. We focus on the effect of the dynamic characteristics of the human and the number of the passengers when the vehicle is subjected to the seismic excitation.

Multibody dynamics analysis is advantageous in that it uses real dimensions and design parameters. In this study, the stability analysis of a railway vehicle based on multibody dynamics analysis is presented. The equations for the contact points and contact forces between the wheel and the rail are derived using a wheelset model. The dynamics equations of the wheelset are combined with the dynamics equations of the other parts of the railway vehicle, which are obtained by general multibody dynamics analysis. The equations of motion of the railway vehicle are linearized by using the perturbation method. The eigenvalues of these linear dynamics equations are calculated and the critical speed is found.

Bearing System

An analysis of the steady state and dynamic characteristics of floating ring journal bearings has been performed. The stability characteristics of the bearing, based on linear theory, are given. The transient problem, in which the equations of motion for the bearing system are integrated in real time was studied. The effect of using finite bearing theory rather than the short bearing assumption was examined. Among the significant findings of this study is the existence of limit cycles in the regions of instability predicted by linear theory. Such results explain the superior stability characteristics of the floating ring bearing in high speed applications. An understanding of this nonlinear behavior, serves as the basis for new and rational criteria for the design of floating ring bearings.

Steady Load

The phenomenon of oil-film whirl in bearings subjected to steady external loads is analyzed. The journal, assumed to be a particle mass, is subjected to the action of two forces; namely, the external load acting on the bearing and the hydrodynamic force developed in the fluid film. The resulting equations of motion for a full-film bearing and a 180-deg partial-film bearing are developed as pairs of second-order nonlinear differential equations. In evaluating the hydrodynamic force, the contribution of the shear stress on the journal surface is found to be negligible for the full-film bearing, whereas for the partial-film bearing it is found to be significant at small attitude values. The equations of motion are linearized and the coefficients of the resulting characteristic equations are studied for the stability of the static-equilibrium positions. The full-film bearing is found to have no stable static-equilibrium position, whereas the 180-deg partial-film bearing is found to have stable static-equilibrium positions under certain parametric conditions. The equations of motion for the full-film bearing are integrated numerically on a digital computer. The results show that the journal center, depending on the parametric conditions, acquired either an orbital motion or a dynamical path of increasing attitude terminating in bearing failure.

Because of the high speed, strong coupling between aerodynamics and propulsion system, complex environmental conditions and new propulsion system, the airbreathing hypersonic vehicles have a complex dynamics characteristic. This paper use the generic hypersonic vehicle model (CSULA-GHV) to research this issue. The nonlinear longitudinal equations of motion are linearized based on the assumption of little perturbation. Analyze the dynamic characteristic on a feature point selected. The results show that, the stability of this model is poor. It has to design an efficient controller to adjust the poor stability.

Abstract An investigation into the dynamic behavior of a bridge with simply supported boundary conditions, carrying a moving vehicle, is performed. The vehicle has been modelled as a two degree of freedom lumped-parameter system travelling at a uniform speed. Furthermore, the bridge is assumed to obey the Euler-Bernoulli beam theory of vibration. This analysis may well be applied to a beam with different boundary conditions, but the computer simulation results given in this paper are set for only the case of freely hinged ends. Numerical solutions for the derived differential equations of motion are obtained and their close agreement, in some extreme cases, with those reported earlier by the authors are observed. Finally, the effect of speed on the maximum dynamic deflection of bridge is shown to be of much importance and hence an estimation for the critical speed of the vehicle is presented.

This paper evaluates the stability of the single mass rotor with internal friction on damped, anisotropic supports. The paper shows under what conditions the rotor stability may be improved by an undamped support with anisotropic stiffness properties. A three dimensional model is presented to show the influence of rotor and support stiffness characteristics on stability. Curves are also presented on how support damping may also improve or even reduce rotor stability. An analog computer solution of the governing equations of motion is presented showing the shaft transient motion for various speed ranges, and also plots of the rotor steady state motion are given for various speeds up to and including the stability threshold. The analysis is used to explain many of the experimental observations of B. L. Newkirk concerning stability due to internal rotor friction.

ABSTRACTVehicle response is served as a reference to evaluate riding comfort of passengers and running safety of moving carriages for high speed trains. In analyzing the vehicle-bridge interaction (VBI) problems, two sets of coupled equations of motion for running vehicles and bridge need to be solved and the VBI system matrices must be updated and factorized at each time step in a time-history analysis. This paper proposed a quasi-VBI model to abridge the complicated computational process, in which the bridge is subjected to only moving static forces of the train loadings, and the moving vehicle over it is excited by the corresponding feedback bridge response. To examine the interacting degree of the vehicle with the bridge, a coupling evaluation index (CEI) is defined as a quantitative assessment of the VBI system. The numerical parametric studies reveal that (1) the mass ratio of vehicle to bridge is the most sensitive parameter affecting the bridge response; (2) increasing bridge damping can reduce the coupling degree of the VBI system at high speeds; (3) the present quasi-VBI model is an efficient and simple tool to predict the vehicle's response with enough accuracy based on engineering approximation.
