  1. 1. Train–Track–Bridge Interaction for the Analysis of Railway Bridges and Train Running Safety

    Författare :Therese Arvidsson; Raid Karoumi; Andreas Andersson; Costin Pacoste; Guido De Roeck; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; dynamics; railway bridge; bridge deck acceleration; train–bridge interaction; vehicle model; wheel–rail force; running safety; Civil and Architectural Engineering; Byggvetenskap;

    Sammanfattning : In this thesis, train–track–bridge interaction (TTBI) models are used to study the dynamic response of railway bridges. A TTBI model considers the dynamics of the train in addition to that of the track–bridge system. The TTBI model enables the assessment of train running safety and passenger comfort. LÄS MER

    Sammanfattning : Modern railway infrastructures, especially bridges, are exposed to significant vibrations with potential safety implications. In this context, previous studies have shown the inconsistency and inadequacy of some conventional design methods necessitaing them to be improved. The assessment of safety inherently deals with uncertainties. LÄS MER

  3. 3. Towards the safe-IOCOS relation -- On testing and correction of errors in an implementation to ensure safety

    Författare :Adnan Khan; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; PLC; Safety; Supervisory control theory; Input-output conformance simulation relation; Model-based testing;

    Sammanfattning : The technological advancement that has occurred at a blistering pace in the past decades has enabled manufacturing companies to conceive innovative products. However, to meet growing demands of consumers, manufacturing companies are expected to maintain a steady production rate without compromising product quality. LÄS MER

  4. 4. Reliability-Based Assessment and Optimization of High-Speed Railway Bridges

    Författare :Reza Allahvirdizadeh; Raid Karoumi; Andréas Andersson; Daniel Straub; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; High-speed railway bridges; Bridge dynamics; Running safety; Passenger comfort; Structural reliability; Meta-models; Surrogate models; Adaptive sampling; Reliability-based design optimization; Höghastighetsjärnvägsbroar; Brodynamik; Trafiksäkerhet; Passagerarkomfort; Konstruktioners tillförlitlighet; Metamodeller; Surrogatmodeller; Adaptiv sampling; Tillförlitlighetsbaserad designoptimering; Structural Engineering and Bridges; Bro- och stålbyggnad;

    Sammanfattning : Increasing the operational speed of trains has attracted a lot of interest in the last decades and has brought new challenges, especially in terms of infrastructure design methodology, as it may induce excessive vibrations. Such demands can damage bridges, which in turn increases maintenance costs, endangers the safety of passing trains and disrupts passenger comfort. LÄS MER

  5. 5. Towards sustainable urban transportation : Test, demonstration and development of fuel cell and hybrid-electric buses
