Numerical Simulation of Subway Train Vertical Random Vibration Load in Time Domain

Abstract:

It is of importance to identify the subway train random vibration load correctly. On the basis of the in-situ dynamic response measurement, the deterministic data for vertical acceleration of rail were obtained. The problem of identifying the random vibration load of subway train was solved in Matlab, according to the simplified vibration model of vehicle system, and in Newmark-β method. Then the time curve and the amplitude spectrum curve of the vertical random vibration train load were obtained. Compared with Fast Fourier Transform method, Newmark-β method is more simple and practical to simulate the train vertical random vibration load directly in the time domain.
