The flexibility characteristics of the structural parts are incorporated into UM model using a modal formulation based upon component mode synthesis. Basically, this method represents the part's flexibility using a modal basis, which is optimized to account for constraint and force locations. The mode shape displacements and stresses are calculated using the finite element software. The UM Durability module combines the stress time history information generated during series of numerical experiments in UM and the material fatigue strength characteristics to generate the predicted life distribution in the part...

Read moreComputer simulation of train-track-bridge interaction
The aim of the paper is to present the approach for simulation of dynamics of the systems consisting of railway vehicle, flexible track and flexible foundation.
Railway vehicles are considered as multibody systems that include rigid or flexible bodies, joints and force elements. The track model is considered as a periodic 3D structure consisting of rails, pads and sleepers on a flexible foundation. Two rails modelled as Timoshenko beams are discretely supported on the sleepers through the railpads and fasteners, that are modelled as nonlinear force elements. The foundation (bridge, tunnel, overpass) is considered as a flexible multibody system simulated using finite element method.
Vertical response of the track model is verified through comparison with experimental data. Test case of simulation of suburban 6-car train on a flexible railway track and three sections of U-like flexible railway bridge of 30 m each is shown. Comparison of the simulation results with experimental data is given.

Alexander Olshevskiy, Chang-Wan Kim, Hyun-Ik Yang & Alexey Olshevskiy. Wear simulation for the centre plate arrangement of a freight car
Vehicle System Dynamics: International Journal of Vehicle Mechanics and Mobility. DOI: 10.1080/00423114.2015.1023319
The bodies of many railway freight cars in many countries of the world are coupled to the running gear by means of a body centre plate that makes a friction pair with a centre bowl. During motion, the bogie is rotated and moved with respect to the car body. This leads to wear on the contact surfaces. Lubrication is inexpedient in this case because the friction forces damp the vibrations (so-called bogie hunting) during motion. Usually, centre plates exhibit noticeable wear after two years of operation. Reducing wear requires knowing details of the wear process which, in turn, requires computer simulation of freight car motion for an operation period of 10–15 years. The purpose of this paper is to develop a universal method for wear simulation of friction pairs that could be used, in particular, for the centre plate of a freight car.
