As the plug-in RufGen, a graphical user interface in Abaqus/CAE for surface interaction, creates a hexahedron with a rough surface and attaches it to the bridge deck, the resulting weight of a bridge model can be much larger than the original one. In the vehicle scanning method, it is essential to keep a finite element bridge model with an unchanged weight after imposing a rough surface on it in consideration of the roughness effect for bridge health monitoring. As such, the proposed procedure is aimed at resolving this issue, with the following two highlights: First, the Toeplitz matrix is introduced to generate a rough surface in three dimensions to ensure the randomness of roughness in the two perpendicular directions under a given roughness profile. Second, a shell-type rough pavement is established for directly using as the bridge pavement or attaching to the bridge deck, which minimizes weight increment in the bridge.</p>","PeriodicalId":54939,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Structural Stability and Dynamics","volume":"75 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.6,"publicationDate":"2024-04-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140598586","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

By using the single-wave cosine curve simulating the characteristics of upwarp deformation in the track slab, we calculated the whole process of wheel jumping. This allowed us to analyze how the amplitude and wavelength of the track slab upward deformation influence the vibration response of the vehicle–track system. Our findings indicate that when a wheel passes through the arch section of the track slab, the entire wheel jumping process consists of distinct stages: “wheel–rail bonding, wheel–rail separation, wheel–rail impact (one or more times), and wheel–rail bonding.” As the amplitude of upwarp deformation increases and the wavelength decreases, significant changes occur in several parameters, including the vertical force between the wheel and rail, wheel unloading rate, wheel jump height, frequency, duration, and vertical displacement of the rail. Additionally, when the wavelength is between 2 and 6<span><math altimg=\"eq-00001.gif\" display=\"inline\" overflow=\"scroll\"><mspace width=\".17em\"></mspace></math></span><span></span>m and the amplitude is 8<span><math altimg=\"eq-00002.gif\" display=\"inline\" overflow=\"scroll\"><mspace width=\".17em\"></mspace></math></span><span></span>mm, the vertical force between the wheel and rail becomes zero, the wheel load reduction rate is one, and the wheel jumps.

Meanwhile, during the first wheel–rail impact, the wheel–rail vertical force and the rail vertical displacement reach their maximum, potentially impacting rail service performance negatively.
