  1. 6. Structural Reliability and Identification with Stochastic Simulation - Application to Railway Mechanics

    Författare :Sadegh Rahrovani; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; model reduction; time-integration; finite element model; sleeper-ballast load characterization; stochastic simulation; Bayesian system identification;

    Sammanfattning : System identification of structures based on measured response data can play a key role in improving reliability based structural designs. However, the experimental limitations of in situ tests and uncertainties of required model complexity together with the inverse nature of system identification give rise to a number of challenging issues.

  3. 7. Characterisation of Nonlinear Structural Dynamic Systems in Conceptual Design

    Författare :Niclas S Andersson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Structural dynamics; Model order reduction; Nonlinear characterisation; Multi-body dynamics; Frequency response functions; Multisines; Response classification; Driveline systems; Concept design analysis; Stepped-sine; Support vector machine;

    Sammanfattning : The engine and driveline systems of passenger cars generates and distributes the necessary driving power and are major contributors to vehicle emissions, noise and vibrations, etc. More environmental friendly technologies under development are expected to intensify and add new comfort related problems, since most of them affect vibration sources or system damping.

    Sammanfattning : Waterborne public transportation (WPT) is slowly increasing in importance as an active component of public transportation networks in cities. City planners are looking at WPT to overcome urban congestion and pollution. LÄS MER

  5. 9. Optimization of Vehicle Structures under Uncertainties

    Författare :Sandeep Shetty; Larsgunnar Nilsson; Kaj Fredin; Alexander Govik; Mårten Olsson; Linköpings universitet; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY;

    Sammanfattning : Advancements in simulation tools and computer power have made it possible to incorporate simulation-based structural optimization in the automotive product development process. However, deterministic optimization without considering uncertainties such as variations in material properties, geometry or loading conditions might result in unreliable optimum designs. LÄS MER

  7. 10. Improving the Dynamic Design Philosophy of High-Speed Railway Bridges Using Reliability-Based Methods

    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
