  1. 1. Preliminaries for probabilistic railway sleeper design

    Författare :Johanna Lilja; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; sensor placement; factorial design; Railway sleeper; ballast; load variation; stochastic parameters; correlation length;

    Sammanfattning : Two investigations are presented, which can be seen ascontributions to the aim of introducing a probabilistic designstrategy of railway sleepers in the future. When usingprobabilistic design the statistics of all relevant parametersconsidered as stochastic must be known. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Optimisation of Railway Switches and Crossings

    Författare :Björn Pålsson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; wheel and rail wear; railway turnout; optimisation; switch crossing; dynamic vehicle-turnout interaction;

    Sammanfattning : Methods for simulation-based optimisation of the design of railway turnouts (switches & crossings, S&C) are developed and demonstrated. Building on knowledge of dynamic wheel–rail interaction in turnouts, it is investigated how rail profile degradation can be reduced by the optimisation of geometry and component stiffness of the track superstructure.

  4. 3. Modelling the acoustic performance of slab tracks

    Författare :Jannik Theyssen; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; numerical modelling; railway noise; rolling noise; slab track; acoustic optimisation;

    Sammanfattning : Transport is a major contributor to anthropogenic greenhouse gas emissions. Railway transport has a small footprint compared to other means of transport. This is one reason for the construction of new high-speed railway lines world-wide. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Thermal Capacity of Railway Wheels - Temperatures, residual stresses and fatigue damage with special focus on metro applications

    Författare :Shahab Teimourimanesh; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; railway tread braking; finite element analysis; frictional heating; fatigue damage; metro trains; rig field experiments; railway wheels; stop braking; temperatures;

    Sammanfattning : Tread (block) braking is still one of the most common braking systems on railway vehicles.The action is carried out by pressing brake blocks against the tread of a wheel, which is also inrolling contact with the rail. LÄS MER

  7. 5. Simulating rolling noise on ballasted and slab tracks: vibration, radiation, and pass-by signals

    Författare :Jannik Theyssen; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Railway rolling noise; Numerical modelling; Green s functions; Time domain; Spherical harmonics; Slab track; 2.5D FE BE;

    Sammanfattning : Shifting to rail-bound freight and passenger traffic is key in Europe's strategy towards transport decarbonisation. However, increasing railway traffic can increase environmental noise pollution. Rolling noise is often the dominant noise source. It originates from the interaction of the rough running surfaces of wheel and rail. LÄS MER
