抗蛇行减振器对磁流变耦合轮对车辆的临界速度与高速曲线通过性能的影响

为使磁流变（Magneto-rheological Fluid，MRF）耦合轮对在工程化、实用化方面有较大的进展，作者建立了31个自由度的车辆系统数学模型，并通过仿真分析发现：车辆在没有安装抗蛇行运动减振器的条件下，当磁流变的屈服应力较小时，虽有较高的临界速度，但轮对横移量较大，易出现2点接触；若屈服应力增大，临界速度急剧下降，到一定值后则降幅变缓。当车辆安装合适的抗蛇行运动减振器后，可大幅度提高车辆的临界速度，在适宜磁流变屈服应力的配合下，车辆以高速和超高速在高速铁路上行驶时，轮对和车体均具有较好的横向动力学性能。因此，合适的抗蛇行运动减振器对磁流变耦合轮对车辆是必须的。

Dynamics of railway wagons subjected to braking/traction torque

Braking or traction torque is regarded as an important source of wheelset skid and a potential source of derailment risk that adversely affects the safety levels of train operations; therefore, this research examines the effect of braking/traction torque to the longitudinal and lateral dynamics of wagons. This paper reports how train operations safety could be adversely affected due to various braking strategies. Sensitivity of wagon dynamics to braking severity is illustrated through numerical examples. The influence of wheel/rail interface friction coefficient and the effects of two types of track geometry defects on wheel unloading ratio and wagon pitch are also discussed in the paper.     

Estimation of wheel–rail contact conditions and adhesion using the multiple model approach

This paper presents the development of a multiple model estimation approach for the identification of the adhesion limit to overcome the problem of the wheel slip/slide at the rail wheel-rail contact. The contact characteristics at the rail wheel-rail interface are both highly nonlinear and subject to changes due to exposure to external contaminations. The detection of adhesion and its changes is therefore scientifically challenging, but would provide a critical information in the control of trains to avoid undesirable wear of the wheels/track but also the safety compromise of rail operations. This study exploits the variations in the dynamic behaviour of the railway wheelset caused by the contact condition changes and applies a bank of Kalman filters designed at selected operation points for the adhesion estimation. A fuzzy logic system is then developed to identify the contact conditions by examining the residuals from the Kalman filters.     

Sensitivity analysis to assess the influence of the inertial properties of railway vehicle bodies on the vehicle's dynamic behaviour

A sensitivity analysis has been performed to assess the influence of the inertial properties of railway vehicles on their dynamic behaviour. To do this, 216 dynamic simulations were performed modifying, one at a time, the masses, moments of inertia and heights of the centre of gravity of the carbody, the bogie and the wheelset. Three values were assigned to each parameter, corresponding to the percentiles 10, 50 and 90 of a data set stored in a database of railway vehicles. After processing the results of these simulations, the analysed parameters were sorted by increasing influence. It was also found which of these parameters could be estimated with a lesser degree of accuracy for future simulations without appreciably affecting the simulation results. In general terms, it was concluded that the most sensitive inertial properties are the mass and the vertical moment of inertia, and the least sensitive ones the longitudinal and lateral moments of inertia.
