Investigation on the failure of metro vehicle stone sweeper and dynamic sub-structure analysis method
Stone sweeper is an important security device for rail vehicles. For the vibration fatigue problem of stone sweepers in metro vehicles, the root cause of their failure is illustrated through vehicle system tests and theoretical analyses. Based on the rigid-flexible coupling theory, a multi-axis random vibration (MRV) model of the substructure is proposed. Based on this model, the vibration and dynamic stress states in service environment are verified and reproduced. Furthermore, a PCP-MRV method is proposed for parallel computation of multi-conditions. Utilizing this method, the weak position of the stone sweeper is identified. Moreover, the damage and fatigue life of critical locations are calculated. The results show that the damage and equivalent stresses in the stone sweeper’s mounting base and bolt connection area do not meet the design life requirement of 3.6 million km. Finally, the failure mechanism of the stone sweeper was explained.
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.
