However, the excessive weight associated with the ratchet structure adversely affects the performance of the compensation device. An optimization design aimed at lightweight optimization of the ratchet wheel structure can enhance the system’s agility, improve material utilization, and reduce costs. This study uses a finite element model to establish an equivalent load model for the ratchet under service conditions and analyzes its load-bearing state. An optimization model was created and solved using ANSYS Workbench. The topological optimization configurations were compared under unconstrained conditions and four different periodic constraint scenarios. Following this, the structure was redesigned based on the topological optimization results, and a simulation analysis was conducted to compare the reconstructed model with the original model. The comparison results indicate that the masses of all four optimized models have been reduced by more than 10 %. Additionally, under conditions of a fully wound compensation rope, the maximum stress has decreased by over 20 %, leading to a more uniform stress distribution and improved overall performance. The topology optimization and redesign method based on periodic constraints offers a viable engineering solution for the lightweight design of the ratchet structure.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":100607,"journal":{"name":"High-speed Railway","volume":"2 4","pages":"Pages 230-240"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143303043","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Understanding the coupling dynamic response of the vehicle and WTLB is essential. Previous research did not consider the dynamic behavior of foundations, leading to an underestimation of the vehicle-turnout-foundation coupling dynamic response, particularly when turnouts were laid on large-span bridges. This study proposes a novel modeling method that includes the foundations, to overcome the previous shortcomings by applying a rigid-flexible coupling system. In this approach, the vehicle was modeled as a rigid body sub-model in a Multi-Body Software (MBS), while WTLB was modeled as a flexible bodies sub-model using Finite Element (FE) software. The modal information from the FE model was imported into the MBS software. The two sub-models were coupled by the wheel-rail contact in the MBS environment and then the Vehicle-turnout-bridge Rigid-flexible Coupling Dynamic (VRCD) calculation model was established and it was discovered that the calculation results showed good agreement with the field test data. Through the VRCD model, the safety of the structure, the stability of the vehicle and the comfort of passengers were investigated, as well as several important infrastructure factors. The results demonstrate that this novel method provides accurate calculations and highlights the complex and significant interactions in the vehicle-turnout-bridge system.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":100607,"journal":{"name":"High-speed Railway","volume":"2 4","pages":"Pages 203-218"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143303044","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The current mainstream upgrade methods are electrification and hydrogen fuel cells. Comprehensive upgrades are costly, and choosing the optimal upgrade method for trams and mainline railways is critical. Without a sensitivity analysis, it is difficult for us to determine the influence relationship between each parameter and cost, resulting in a waste of cost when choosing a line reconstruction method. In addition, by analyzing the sensitivity of different parameters to the cost, the primary optimization direction can be determined to reduce the cost. Global higher-order sensitivity analysis enables quantification of parameter interactions, showing non-additive effects between parameters. This paper selects the main parameters that affect the retrofit cost and analyzes the retrofit cost of the two upgrade methods in the case of trams and mainline railways through local and global sensitivity analysis methods. The results of the analysis show that, given the current UK rail system, it is more economical to choose electric trams and hydrogen mainline trains. For trams, the speed at which the train travels has the greatest impact on the final cost. Through the sensitivity analysis, this paper provides an effective data reference for the current railway upgrading and reconstruction plan and provides a theoretical basis for the next step of train parameter optimization.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":100607,"journal":{"name":"High-speed Railway","volume":"2 4","pages":"Pages 219-229"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143303042","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
