Effects of Track Elasticity on Wheel-Rail Dynamic Performance of Heavy Haul Railway

Article Preview

Abstract:

Two vehicle-track dynamics models on heavy haul railway are established in two conditions of rigid track and elastic track. And the impact of track elasticity on the wheel-rail dynamics performance was analyzed using models. The results show that the critical speed of heavy vehicles and wheel-rail dynamic indexes, such as wheel-rail lateral force and wheel-rail vertical force decreased on elastic track compared with rigid track. However, other dynamic indexes, including derailment coefficient and lateral displacement of wheelsets increased on elastic track. And the wheel-rail wear indexes are some differences on two tracks.
