The Kalker book of tables for non-Hertzian contact of wheel and rail

A new regularisation of non-elliptical contact patches has been introduced, which enables building the look-up table called by us the Kalker book of tables for non-Hertzian contact (KBTNH), which is a fast creep force generator that can be used by multibody dynamics system simulation programs. The non-elliptical contact patch is regularised by a simple double-elliptical contact region (SDEC). The SDEC region is especially suitable for regularisation of contact patches obtained with approximate non-Hertzian methods for solving the normal contact problem of wheel and rail. The new regularisation is suitable for wheels and rails with any profiles, including worn profiles.

The paper describes the new procedure of regularisation of the non-elliptical contact patch, the structure of the Kalker book of tables, and parameterisation of the independent variables of the tables and creep forces.

A moderate volume Kalker book of tables for SDEC region suitable for simulation of modern running gears has been computed in co-simulation of Matlab and program CONTACT.

To access the creep forces of the Kalker book of tables, the linear interpolation has been applied.

The creep forces obtained from KBTNH have been compared to those obtained by program CONTACT and FASTSIM algorithm. FASTSIM has been applied on both the contact ellipse and the SDEC contact patch. The comparison shows that KBTNH is in good agreement with CONTACT for a wide range of creepage condition and shapes of the contact patch, whereas the use of FASTSIM on the elliptical patch and SDEC may lead to significant deviations from the reference CONTACT solutions.

The computational cost of calling creep forces from KBTNH has been estimated by comparing CPU time of FASTSIM and KBTNH. The KBTNH is 7.8–51 times faster than FASTSIM working on 36–256 discretisation elements, respectively.

In the example of application, the KBTNH has been applied for curving simulations and results compared with those obtained with the creep force generator employing the elliptical regularisation. The results significantly differ, especially in predicted creepages, because the elliptical regularisation neglects generation of the longitudinal creep force by spin creepage.

大倾角搁浅船舶扳正过程分析

在研究大倾角搁浅船舶的扳正过程中,计算了难船扳正力、横倾角和吃水。根据搁浅船舶的受力特点,建立了其力学模型,分析了扳正过程中横倾角、吃水、入泥深度与海底泥土性质对船体的影响。利用GHS软件模拟搁浅船舶的扳正过程,以某搁浅液化气船舶为例,求解了其扳正过程中船体扳正力、总搁坐力、剪力、弯矩和转矩,比较了难船不同扳正方案,分析了难船的扳正方式、搁坐位置、上层建筑与储气罐对难船打捞的影响。分析结果表明:在扳正过程中,3个方案的力学参数的变化趋势是一致的。最大扳正力相差较大,差值为9.1%~20.0%。搁坐力、剪力和弯矩均在横倾角为-55°~-50°时达到最大值,船体虽然在该阶段不需加载较大的扳正力,但仍应该注意船体的受力情况。在横倾角为-120°~-100°时,转矩变化非常剧烈。弯矩和转矩均出现了反向变化的现象,威胁船体结构的安全,扳正中应该谨慎处理。选择合适的扳正方案时应该综合考虑扳正力施力点的位置和扳正过程对船体与环境安全的潜在威胁。
