Abstract
The sub-components of railway bogie have been frequently reported to be subjected to the vibration fatigue due to the wheel/rail high frequency vibration. An efficiency numerical model is thus desirable to simulate the high frequency vibration of railway bogie, which can substantially enhance the design efficiency of railway bogie system considering the vibration fatigue. Therefore, this paper aims to proposing a modelling methodology for simulating the high frequency vibration of railway bogies’ subcomponents, and a lifeguard of metro bogie was taken as an example. Firstly, a field test measurement of lifeguard for the metro bogie was primarily introduced to demonstrate the high frequency vibration characteristics and the related failure mechanisms arising from the wheel/rail high frequency impact. Subsequently, a random vibration model for the railway bogie system and the lifeguard based on the rigid/flexible coupled dynamics were developed to simulate the high frequency vibration and the dynamic stress developed at the lifeguard. This method was subsequently employed in the structural optimization for the lifeguard. The results showed that the proposed methodology can effectively simulate the high frequency vibration of lifeguard of bogie system based on the measured axle box acceleration, and the optimized structure can effectively increase the service lifetime under the excitation of wheel/rail high frequency vibration.
期刊介绍:
Engineering Failure Analysis publishes research papers describing the analysis of engineering failures and related studies.
Papers relating to the structure, properties and behaviour of engineering materials are encouraged, particularly those which also involve the detailed application of materials parameters to problems in engineering structures, components and design. In addition to the area of materials engineering, the interacting fields of mechanical, manufacturing, aeronautical, civil, chemical, corrosion and design engineering are considered relevant. Activity should be directed at analysing engineering failures and carrying out research to help reduce the incidences of failures and to extend the operating horizons of engineering materials.
Emphasis is placed on the mechanical properties of materials and their behaviour when influenced by structure, process and environment. Metallic, polymeric, ceramic and natural materials are all included and the application of these materials to real engineering situations should be emphasised. The use of a case-study based approach is also encouraged.
Engineering Failure Analysis provides essential reference material and critical feedback into the design process thereby contributing to the prevention of engineering failures in the future. All submissions will be subject to peer review from leading experts in the field.
