  1. 1. Towards elimination of airborne particles from rail traffic

    Författare :Saeed Abbasi; Ulf Sellgren; Ulf Olofsson; Yannick Desplanques; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Airborne; brake block; brake pad; railway; subway; TEI; wheel–rail; wear; Järnvägsgruppen - Tribologi; The KTH Railway Group - Tribology;

    Sammanfattning : Since the investigation of wear particles from rail transport started in the late 1910s, the high mass concentrations of these particles have prompted concern among researchers interested in air quality. However, effective action has yet to be taken because relevant knowledge is still missing. LÄS MER

  2. 2. Influence of railway wheel tread damage and track properties on wheelset durability – Field tests and numerical simulations

    Författare :Michele Maglio; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; dynamic wheel–rail interaction; axle stresses; railway wheel tread damage; wheelset durability; instrumented wheelset; rail vehicle maintenance; wheel–rail impact loads;

    Sammanfattning : Wheel tread damage leading to high magnitudes of vertical wheel–rail contact forces is a major cause of train delays in the Swedish railway network, particularly during the coldest months of the year. According to regulations, vehicles generating wheel–rail impact loads exceeding the limit values must be taken out of service for wheel maintenance. LÄS MER

  3. 3. Wheel–Rail Impact Loads and Track Settlement in Railway Crossings

    Författare :Xin Li; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; vehicle--track dynamics; wheel--rail contact; track settlement; material modelling of ballast; Switches and crossings; turnout; cyclic loading; Green s functions;

    Sammanfattning : Turnouts (Switches & Crossings, S&C) are critical components of a railway track requiring regular maintenance and generating high life cycle costs. A main driver for the high maintenance costs is the need to repair and replace switch rails and crossings as these components are subjected to a severe load environment. LÄS MER

  4. 4. 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

  5. 5. Correlation between Track Irregularities and Vehicle Dynamic Response Based on Measurements and Simulations

    Författare :Tomas Karis; Mats Berg; Jens Nielsen; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; track irregularities; vehicle response; wheel–rail force; axle box acceleration; Dynotrain; Gröna Tåget; multi-body system; simulations; spårlägesfel; fordonsrespons; hjul–räl-krafter; axelboxacceleration; Dynotrain; Gröna Tåget; flerkroppssystem system; simuleringar; Järnvägsgruppen - Fordonsteknik; Järnvägsgruppen - Fordonsteknik; Vehicle and Maritime Engineering; Farkostteknik; Järnvägsgruppen - Infrastruktur; Järnvägsgruppen - Infrastruktur;

    Sammanfattning : Deviations from the design track geometry are called track irregularities, which are a main excitation mechanism in the track–vehicle dynamic system, and very important to monitor and maintain to have trac on a line run safely and comfortably. Especially during vehicle acceptance testing, it is important that a new vehicle behaves close to design predictions and within limit values, thus it is important to be able to describe track irregularities in a consistent way.
