HU Chang-bin, SUN Zeng-hua, WANG Li-juan
Abstract: The control principles of early-age temperature field were put forward based on the temperature stress, built-in basic temperature, built-in temperature difference and curing temperature of cement concrete pavement.The specialized early-age temperature field numerical simulation program of cement concrete pavement was used, the sensitivities and influencing characteristics of pavement early-age temperature field parameters were researched, and the effectivenesses of pavement early-age temperature field control measures were evaluated.Analysis result shows that compared with material parameters, environment construction parameters are major factors effecting pavement early-age temperature characteristics.Appropriate paving time and environment condition may change the temperature difference between the top and the bottom of slab more than 20℃.Proper curing methods and curing materials may reduce the temperature of pavement more than 12 ℃.Concrete paving temperature, water cement ratio and cement content significantly effect built-in basic temperature.For specific temperature control target, the sensitivities of influencing parameters are not the same, field pavement early-age temperature simulation should be combined to balance the effects of control measures.More>

Analyses of structural damage and parameter sensitivity for CRCP+AC composite pavement
WANG Bin, HUANG Wei, YANG Jun, ZHANG Lei
Abstract: The structural plasticity damage of continuous reinforcement concrete pavement (CRCP) and asphalt concrete (AC) composite pavement was analyzed, the spatial distribution laws of structural stresses and damages under different loading conditions were studied.Orthogonal test method was used, the structural tensile damage was taken as an index, the parameter sensitivity analyses with a variety of complex structural and environmental factors were employed to obtain factor influencing laws.Based on the results of variance and range analyses, the primary and secondary factors were distinguished and ordered with their various influencing effects under temperature changing or temperature-load coupling conditions.Analysis result shows that there are differences in the distribution of structural damage along the depth range of CRCP slab, which lead to the difference distribution of tension stress.When repeated traffic loading is applied, the trend of structural damage steps up in the initial stage and is steady growth in the later stage with the intensification of structural stress softening.The normal direction of structural crack plane can be judged by the vector direction of maximum plasticity principal strain.Based on the comprehensive consideration of analysis results under different loading conditions, the thickness of asphalt layer, the linear expansion coefficient of concrete and the support state under CRCP slab are the most important influencing factors associated with the structural damage of CRCP.More>

WANG Ping, LIU Hao, WEI Xian-kui, XIAO Jie-ling
Abstract: Based on the theory of track-bridge interaction, the calculation model of longitudinal force for continuous welded rail (CWR) on cable-stayed bridge was established, and the related calculation software was compiled.Taking a double-tower steel truss cable-stayed bridge commonly used in the railway as an example, the longitudinal force regulations of CWR were analyzed.Analysis result shows that the cable-stayed bridge can be simplified as a continuous beam with fixed bearing in the middle to calculate rail expansion forces.Rail bending forces can be calculated under the conditions of loads laid on main span and its adjacent span or the separate main span, and the direction change of train needn't be considered.Speed locking devices should be set on railway cable-stayed bridge to effectively limit the main beam longitudinal displacement under train braking force, and rail deformation decreases simultaneously.The method of trackbridge interaction should be used for cable-stayed bridge with CWR to calculate rail broken gap value accurately.More>

WANG Hui, ZHONG Xiao-bo, SHEN Gang
Abstract: In order to effectively control maglev-guideway coupling vibration, maglev-guideway coupling vibration system was simplified as electromagnet-elastic-track model.A full-state feedback optimum controller was developed.The guideway vibration information was introduced into the control system by state observer.A small-scale elastic-track magnetic levitation test rig was built using dSPACE.Compared with the traditional controller, the proposed control strategy can always keep the system stable, even the guideway is rather soft and no damping effect exists.Step response tested from the test rig indicates that the developed controller can stabilize the system in 0.3 swith a overshot of 4%.Analysis result shows that the control strategy is able to effectively restrain the coupling vibration.Moreover, it reduces the over-dependence of the system stability on the guideway beam properties based on satisfying maglev stability.More>

LI Heng-li, LI Fei, PAN Shu-ping, FU Kai, WANG Yong
Abstract: In order to realize wheel-rail low track force performance of bogie for heavy haul feight car, a new low track force radial bogie configuration was given based on the heavy haul transportation state of Chinese railway and the running experience of ZK7 type radial bogie.The improvement focused on sub-frame structure: comparing to the holistic prototype, each axle-box had an independent adapter mounted on sub-frame by tow rivets.The vehicle-track coupling dynamics model with C70EF type gondola and standard Chinese track parameters was established through the multi-body system dynamics software SIMPACK.The wheel-rail dynamics behaviour and the force law between sub-frame and adapter were discussed.The FEM simulation and fatigue test for sub-frame connection reliability were carried out.Analysis result indicates that, compared to ZK7 type bogie, when the new radial bogie passes through a 0.01 rad sinking track joint, the wheel-rail low frequency force approximately reduces by 10.78%;when it runs on AAR5 irregular track, the wheel-rail vertical and lateral forces respectively reduce by about 2.98%-4.03%, 2.96%-9.77%, and the vehicle wheel-rail wear friction power reduces by about 5.03%-29.46%.The stress of adapter connection rivet inside is obviously bigger than the one outside, where the maximum shear stress is about 58.13 MPa.The maximum stress near rivet orifice is about 180.76MPa.Both of them are less than the material allowable values 128 MPa and 345MPa respectively.The connection fatigue strength and running reliability are sufficient.More>

BI Xin, MA Wei-hua, WANG Shao-lin, LUO Shi-hui
Abstract: The working principle of radial steering structure for three axle locomotive was studied.Wheel-rail contact features of locomotives with radial bogie and conventional bogie during passing transition curve were analyzed in detail by using the numerical simulation method.It is concluded that radial structure can balance the steering torques between wheelsets and improve locomotive primary suspension force to promote the bogie frame moving along the radial direction.The guide wheelset of conventional bogie is more susceptible to flange contact, which leads to a greater angle of attack.The guide wheelset in the radial bogie can maintain a smaller angle of attack on a large radius curve.When the flange contact occurs on the guide wheelset, the steering ability of radial bogie is weakened.The creep force distributions are almost same for the two types of bogies, i.e.the lateral creep force is greater than the longitudinal creep force for the guide wheelset, but the longitudinal creep force is greater than the lateral creep force for the third wheelset.The change of lateral creep force shows strongly nonlinear characteristic that smaller angle can cause larger lateral creep force.More>

LIU Lin-ya, ZHANG Bin, SHAO Wen-jie, LU: Rui
Abstract: In order to reduce the vibration noise produced by the wheels of running train, wheel structure dynamics optimization principle was applied to wheel structure section optimization design. By means of finite element numerical simulation method and boundary element acoustic simulation method, railway train low-noise wheel acoustic radiation optimizationmodel, which took wheel structure acoustic radiation power as objective function, was built. Using structure vibration acoustic radiation optimization theory and multi-parameter highly efficient optimization GA(genetic algorithm)method, the solution of model was programed successfully. Compared to standard wheel, optimized wheel plate vibration reduction is more obvious, for which the maximum vibration acceleration amplitude reduces from 209.2 m·s-2 to 194.6 m·s-2. According to wheel acoustic radiation power, optimized wheel acoustic radiation power decreases within most frequency ranges. The most obvious reductions are 2.31 dB and 2.42 dB at 1 200 Hz and 3 200 Hz, respectively. Analysis result indicates that it is available to optimize wheel by GA, and it provides a way for the vibration and noise reduction of vehicle.More>

ZHANG Sheng-dong, LIU Zheng-lin
Abstract: In order to shorten the distence between the experience value and actual value of water-lubricated rubber stern tube bearing, a static stiffness calculation model was proposed by phenomenological theory. The calculation model was linearized to obtain the parameters by linear regression method and finite element method. Significance test for the influence factors of bearing static stiffness was carried out by difference method. Test method offered the stiffness correction coefficient, which verified the correctness and validity of the model. Analysis result shows that the most significant influence on static stiffness of stern tube bearing is length-diameter ratio, the second ones are modulus and pressure ratio, and the last one is rubber thickness. Compared the static stiffness model with the methods of estimation or experience in references, the minimum and maximum relative errors are 0.41% and 34.77% respectively, indicating a closer value to the real. With the increase of pressure ratio, the static stiffness increases nonlinearly, the maximum change value is 1.83×108 N·m-1.More>

HUANG Da-rong, SONG Jun, LI Shu-qing, XIANG Hong-yan
Abstract: With the application of urban traffic security supervision under networked dynamic-link transportation equipment, the present domestic and overseas researches of traffic congestion control technology for urban road network were summarized based on the road network traffic safety performances including reliability evaluation indexes and evaluation methods. The problems and further development of recent researches were pointed.Analysis result shows that because of transmitting delay, data packet loss, and data exception of traffic information in networked dynamic scheduling and control, the traditional traffic congestion control technologies and methods of road network have the lack of global coordination ability, multi-dimension dynamic mode, and coordination ability between traveler and traffic performance. The arrangement of networked dynamic-link resource can be used for the implementation of linkage control at traffic congestion status, but the traditional factors for unimpeded transportation and the factors relating to information resources, such as information transmitting mechanism and channel capacity etc., have to be comprehensively considered.The key sub-control models for the traffic congestion control of road network are proposed.These sub-models are further integrated to establish a systematic-model based on the framework of traffic congestion control technology.It is pointed out that the core content of the model-based frame is the construction of traffic sate database.The future development trend and research focus of traffic congestion control technology are distributed intelligent control, adaptive intelligent control, and integrated intelligent control.More>

ZHAO Mei-yun, LIU Zheng-lin, ZHAO Xin-ze, GAO Wei, WANG Qi-feng
Abstract: Taking LGJ150/25 aluminum cable steel reinforced (ACSR) wire as tested wire, aeolian vibrations under dry and acidic conditions were simulated on a self-made test rig.The surface morphology of wear scar of tested wire and its elements were observed by using scanning electron microscope (SEM) and energy dispersive spectrometry (EDS).A finite model of inside and outside wire contact areas was built under the same conditions.The analysis results of the finite model and the surface morphology of wear scar were compared.Comparison result indicates that both the wear scar shapes and the stress distributions of contact area among inner aluminum strands are oval-shaped under two conditions.Oval-shaped major axis and strand axis have a certain angle.The contact stress in the central contact area is significantly higher than other areas.The plastic deformation and a large number of wear debris occur on the surface of wear area because of high stress.The compression of mutated stress from the center area, especial transition area, causes the elastic deformation at the edge of wear area and the phenomena of plastic flow and stacking of surface tissue.The transition area between the center and the edge parts has stress concentration, where fatigue cracks are resulted from the mutation of normal stress and shear stress.More>
