Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of railway track safety analysis and control engineering, and particularly relates to a coupling modeling method for deterioration of the on-track and under-track structures in a ballastless track system. Background Art
[0002] With the continuous increase in train operation speed and the increase in operation mileage, various structures in the high-speed railway system have shown varying degrees of damage conditions. Although the train components and track structures are regularly inspected and maintained, the relevant mechanisms have mostly not been explored. Accidents are often not dominated by a single factor but are caused by multiple deteriorations within the system, which ultimately reflects in wheel-rail contact. Therefore, it is a trend to consider the combined action of multi-factor deteriorations from a systematic perspective for analysis.
[0003] The investment in high-speed railway line tests is large and the cycle is long. The high cost forces researchers to find alternative ways. With the popularization and development of computer technology, the analytical method has provided a new research approach for the coupled system dynamics analysis, and simulation has become the mainstream research method. Existing research has confirmed that the simulation analysis results are relatively reliable.
[0004] Regarding the deterioration phenomena such as wheel surface scratches, rail wear, fastener system failure, slab deterioration, mortar layer voids, base slab cracking, and uneven subgrade settlement within the high-speed railway ballastless track coupling system, existing research has focused on the cause exploration and dynamic response analysis of each individual phenomenon, and simplified other structures outside the damaged structure. In engineering practice, the wheels are not ideal circles, the tracks are not completely straight, and the repeated excitation of vehicle loads causes the stiffness of the fastener system to decrease and soil settlement to occur in the under-track system. These phenomena exist at all times during the operation of high-speed railways, and the industry standards for the service performance of each structure are also different. Therefore, when conducting dynamic analysis, it is necessary to uniformly set the industry standards to cover the service performance evaluation indicators of each structure. Summary of the Invention
[0005] Aiming at the problems that the analysis of the ballastless track coupling system is difficult under the condition of multi-factor deterioration, and it is limited to the single-structure deterioration analysis of the track or sub-track, the present invention provides a dynamic modeling method for the ballastless track high-speed railway coupling system with structural deterioration existing simultaneously in the track and sub-track systems based on finite element software and multi-body dynamics software, and uses the Universal Mechanism multi-body dynamics software to establish a train model. The Universal Mechansim multi-body dynamics software (referred to as UM software for short) is a multi-body dynamics simulation software developed by the famous mathematician and mechanics expert Dmitry Pogorelov and his team members from the Bryansk State University in Russia, and it includes the pre-processing UM Input and the post-processing UMSimulation programs; uses the ABAQUS finite element software to establish the CRTS I type slab ballastless track, subgrade, and foundation structures; completes the conversion of the finite element model through ABAQUS_UM_XE.exe; establishes a complete vehicle-track-road-ground coupling system in UM Input, and in UM Simulation, sets the fastener connection relationship and basic track parameters; by applying various deterioration diseases, studies the influence of the simultaneous structural deterioration on the dynamic response of the vehicle-track-road-ground coupling system, and provides operation and maintenance suggestions for the relevant railway departments.
[0006] In order to achieve the above object, the present invention adopts the following technical solutions:
[0007] A coupling modeling method for the structural deterioration of the track and sub-track in the ballastless track system, including the following steps:
[0008] Step 1, use the UM Input program in the multi-body dynamics software to establish a train subsystem;
[0009] Step 2, use the finite element software ABAQUS to establish a finite element model of the slab ballastless track including the track, subgrade, and foundation structures, set the structures that need to add deterioration to the sub-track system, and then complete the mesh division;
[0010] Step 3, import the established finite element model of the ballastless track into the UM Input program, and establish the connection relationship and boundary conditions of each layer structure of the sub-track system;
[0011] Step 4, in the UM Input program, add a flexible body track to establish a vehicle-track-road-ground coupling system;

[0014] Furthermore, in step 1, the UM Input program in the multi-body dynamics software is used to establish a train subsystem model, which includes the following steps:
[0015] Step 1.1: The train subsystem is regarded as consisting of a car body and two bogies. One bogie includes a frame and two wheel sets, and the frame and the wheel sets are connected by primary suspension, while the car body and the frame are connected by secondary suspension;
[0016] Step 1.2: In the Subsystems module of the UM Input program, create a wheel set model and set the mass, moment of inertia, nominal radius, and axle length of the wheel set; then, sequentially add the images of the car body, secondary dampers, frame, primary dampers, air springs, and axle boxes; set the mass, moment of inertia, and centroid coordinates of the frame; set the vertical stiffness, lateral stiffness, and longitudinal stiffness of the primary spring, as well as the damping parameters of the primary vertical damper; create an axle box swing arm node and set the vertical stiffness, lateral stiffness, and longitudinal stiffness of the axle box swing arm node; create secondary air springs, secondary vertical dampers, secondary lateral dampers, and anti-hunting dampers, and respectively set the stiffness and damping parameters of the secondary air springs, secondary vertical dampers, secondary lateral dampers, and anti-hunting dampers;

[0019] Step 2.1: Divide the track sub-system into a track subsystem, a subgrade subsystem, and a foundation subsystem. The track subsystem includes a track slab, a CA mortar layer, a base slab, and a concrete asphalt layer; the subgrade subsystem includes a subgrade surface layer, a subgrade bottom layer, and an embankment body; the foundation subsystem is treated as a half-space elastic body; according to the actual structural dimensions of the CRTS I type slab ballastless track in high-speed railways, use the ABAQUS finite element software to complete the establishment of the finite element model of the track sub-system;
[0020] Step 2.2: Use the cutting and deletion operation on the structural layer to complete the deterioration setting of structural voids. Cut the structural layer without separating it, and assign the deteriorated material parameters to the deteriorated section to complete the deterioration setting of the stiffness reduction of each structural layer; locally rigidify the four corner points of the bottom surface of each structural layer, and complete the mesh division of each layer of structure according to the elastic wave propagation principle; reserve the mesh nodes of the fasteners for the connection of the rail and the track slab.
[0021] Further, in step 3, the established ballastless track model is imported into the UM Input program to establish the connection relationships and boundary conditions of each layer structure under the rail, specifically including the following steps:
[0022] Step 3.1, extract the first 30 natural frequencies of each layer structure model established by ABAQUS, save the results to the ABAQUS.fil file using the dynamic substructure method; convert the ABAQUS.fil file to the input.fum file through the ABAQUS_UM_XE.exe interface; in the Wizard of Flexible Subsystems module of UM, import the input.fum file, and complete modal regularization after removing the rigid body modes, finally generating the input.fss file; in the Linear FEM Subsystem in the Subsystems module, select the input.fss file and load the model, thus completing the import of the track system model under the rail;
[0023] Step 3.2, establish the connection relationships and boundary conditions between each layer in the track system under the rail, use the penalty function method to simulate the contact relationships between layers, and use bushing force elements to connect the corresponding nodes between layers; the boundary conditions of the track system under the rail adopt artificial elastic boundaries to ensure that the train load stress wave does not repeatedly propagate inside.
[0024] Further, in step 4, in the UM Input program, add a flexible body track to establish a vehicle-track-road-ground coupling system, specifically including the following steps:
[0025] Step 4.1, add a flexible body track as the track type to facilitate the connection of the train subsystem and the track system under the rail;
[0026] Step 4.2, move the train a certain distance along the longitudinal distance, divide the dynamic simulation process into three running stages: before the flexible rail, on the rail, and after the rail, to facilitate reducing the boundary effect, and take the section where the flexible body travels as the research object.
[0027] Further, in step 5, in the UM Simulation program, set the basic parameters, covering the fastener spacing and parameters, rail profile, wheel tread shape, and ballastless track irregularity spectrum, specifically including the following steps:
[0028] Step 5.1, set the center line of the rail of the flexible body track, the fastener spacing, and the stiffness and damping parameters of the fasteners;
[0029] Step 5.2, select the LMA type worn tread for the wheel tread shape, select the CN60 steel rail for the rail profile, endow the rail material with the parameters related to wheel-rail contact, set it as the straight track type, and endow the rail base slope parameter;
[0030] Step 5.3: Rail unevenness adopts the unevenness spectrum of China's high-speed railway ballastless track.
[0031] Furthermore, the step 6 is to set the structure of the on-rail system to be degraded, which specifically includes the following steps:
[0032] Step 6.1, uncheck the bushing force element in the fastener failure section in the Forces module to simulate the fastener failure without support conditions; add the wheelset wear condition in Out-of-round;
[0033] Step 6.2, perform simulation calculations to compare changes in dynamic responses under normal conditions and deteriorated conditions.
[0034] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following advantages:
[0035] The present invention divides the high-speed railway coupling system into a train subsystem, a track subsystem, a roadbed subsystem and a foundation subsystem. According to the current operating status of the high-speed railway slab ballastless track system, the coupling model is established by using finite element software and multi-body dynamics software. The model can accurately reflect the transmission law of the internal dynamic response of the system and the deformation characteristics of each structure. Compared with the study of the dynamics of the sub-track system by transforming the train load in the form of a function, and the study of the train system by treating the sub-track structure as a macroscopic non-deformable elastic body, the present invention constructs a complete car body and sub-track system model to truly reflect the train service environment. Previous studies were often limited to the degradation of a single structure on or under the track. The present invention couples the on-track and under-track systems, and takes into account the impact of the on-track and under-track structural degradation on the system. It restores the degradation conditions of mortar layer degassing, base bed surface graded gravel powderization, rail fastener system, wheel polygons, and wheel flats. It judges the vehicle running quality when one or more degradation conditions occur simultaneously in the on-track and under-track systems, and warns of accidents that may be caused by degradation conditions, providing certain theoretical references for relevant practitioners in design and operation and maintenance.

Rigidify the four corner points at the bottom of each structural layer locally, and complete the mesh generation of each layer of structure according to the elastic wave propagation principle. Reserve the mesh nodes of the fasteners for connecting the rail and the track slab.
[0057] Step 3: Import the established ballastless track model into the UM Input program to establish the connection relationships and boundary conditions of each layer structure under the track.
[0058] Step 3.1: Extract the first 30 natural frequencies of each layer structure model established by ABAQUS, and use the dynamic substructure method to save the results to the ABAQUS.fil file; convert the ABAQUS.fil file to the input.fum file through the ABAQUS_UM_XE.exe interface; in the Wizard of Flexible Subsystems module of UM, import the input.fum file, and complete modal regularization after removing the rigid body modes, and finally generate the input.fss file; in the Linear FEM Subsystem in the Subsystems module, select the input.fss file and load the model to complete the import of the under-rail system model.
[0059] Step 3.2: Establish the connection relationships and boundary conditions between the layers in the under-rail system, use the penalty function method to simulate the contact relationships between the layers, and use bushing force elements to connect the corresponding nodes between the layers; the boundary conditions of the under-rail system adopt artificial elastic boundaries to ensure that the train load stress wave does not repeatedly transmit inside.
[0060] Step 4: Add a flexible track in the UM Input program to establish a vehicle-rail-road-ground coupling system.
[0061] Step 4.1: Add a flexible track as the track type to facilitate the connection of the train subsystem and the under-rail system.

[0063] Step 5: Set the basic parameters in the UM Simulation program, covering the fastener spacing and parameters, rail profile, wheel tread shape, and ballastless track irregularity spectrum.
[0064] Step 5.1: Set the center line of the flexible track rail, fastener spacing, stiffness and damping parameters of the fasteners.
[0065] Step 5.2: Select the LMA type worn tread for the wheel tread shape, select the CN60 steel rail for the rail profile, endow the rail material with parameters related to wheel-rail contact, set it as a straight track type, and endow the rail cant parameter.
[0066] Step 5.3: Adopt the ballastless track irregularity spectrum of China's high-speed railway for the rail irregularity.
[0067] Step 6: Set the structures that need to be deteriorated in the on-rail system.
[0068] Step 6.1, uncheck the bushing force elements in the failed section of the fasteners in the Forces module to simulate the condition of no support when the fasteners fail; add the wear condition of the wheelset in Out-of-round.
[0069] Step 6.2, perform simulation calculations and compare the changes in the dynamic responses under normal conditions and degraded conditions.

The model is regarded as a structure composed of track slab, CA mortar layer, base slab, concrete asphalt layer, subgrade surface layer, subgrade bottom layer, embankment body and foundation soil. Set the geometric parameters of each layer structure according to the actual track construction process and endow it with material properties; locally rigidify the four corners of the bottom surface of each structural layer, and the mesh division should make the meshes of each structural layer correspond one by one up and down to ensure the establishment of connection relationships in UM. At the same time, the position of the fasteners needs to be divided in the track slab to facilitate the connection of the rail and the track structure.

Import each layer of the subgrade foundation into the UMInput program respectively, use the bushing force element to simulate the connection relationship between layers, and complete the setting of boundary conditions at the same time; add a flexible body track structure to complete the connection between the vehicle and the subgrade system, and move the vehicle forward to a position where it does not contact the flexible body of the subgrade system.

Taking fastener failure and mortar layer delamination as examples ( Figure 10 ), the variables that have the most significant influence on specific indexes under multi-factor deterioration conditions can be reflected, so as to give operation and maintenance suggestions to relevant practitioners.
