The purpose is to explore the three-sleeper tamping operation mechanism maintenance. First, a model of the interaction between tamping picks and ballast particles was proposed. Then, the model of three-sleeper tamping operation was established by discrete element method (DEM) and multibody dynamics (MBD) coupling approach. Finally, the macro–meso properties of ballast particles was analysed. The results indicate that the tamping operation can considerably reduce the compactness of the ballast bed in the bottom of the sleeper and the crib area and also disturb the ballast shoulder area. In the penetration stage, there is a critical position of normal contact force of ballast particles. Moreover, the ballast at the bottom of the sleeper can move to either side of the sleeper during the rotation stage of the retracting, which is not conducive to the compaction.","PeriodicalId":48510,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Rail Transportation","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":4.0,"publicationDate":"2022-10-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45880105","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

By injecting a series of linearly independent wideband excitation signals, the SFCAs of train are obtained simultaneously without affecting the network impedance. Considering the frequency distribution of wideband signal, an alternating injection method based on multi-tone signal is proposed. It aims at eliminating the overlapping effects of various frequency relationships on the target coupling harmonics in the 4QC control system. With unknown network impedance, the SFCAs of train covering all the desired frequencies, even several times sampling frequency, can be captured by the proposed wideband measurement approach. Comprehensive experiments are conducted on a hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) system for validating the measurement results.","PeriodicalId":48510,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Rail Transportation","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":4.0,"publicationDate":"2022-09-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43032338","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The study, which uses the Virginia Tech-Federal Railroad Administration (VT-FRA) roller rig, extends past tribological studies with twin disks. Separate tests are performed in two phases. In Phase 1, the effect of TORFM volume, ranging from light to heavy applications (about 1 to 25 μm layer thickness), is evaluated on wheel wear. The normalized results indicate that light applications of TORFM yield the most favourable wear-to-cost ratio. In Phase 2, TORFM effectiveness duration is evaluated by applying the material in multiple cycles and monitoring the time-lapse for adhesion to recover to the unlubricated condition. Repeated applications of TORFM in moderate amounts (5 μm layer thickness) could lead to a stick-slip phenomenon that could not only diminish adhesion but also lead to surface markings on the rail.","PeriodicalId":48510,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Rail Transportation","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":4.0,"publicationDate":"2022-09-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44666969","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
