Abstract

Four vehicle-track coupling dynamics models of different wheel-rail relations were established to study the influence of harmonic wear of wheels on the creep characteristics between wheels and rails.Based on the multi-body dynamics theory, the vibration characteristics of the four models were compared and analyzed on the basis of the measured harmonic wear of wheels, and the wheel/rail relationship model that could best reflect the real situation was obtained.Based on the analysis of the impact of harmonic wear on the wheel-rail contact characteristics, the impact of the fastener stiffness and velocity on the creep characteristics under the harmonic wear was further explored.The results show that the vibration response of the flexible wheel is higher than that of the rigid wheel, and that of the rigid rail is higher than that of the flexible rail; the mechanism is that the intrinsic mode of the flexible body is close to the harmonic excitation frequency, which causes the modal resonance and makes the vibration response of the flexible body greater than that of the rigid body; the analysis results show that the muti-flexible body can better reflect the real contact state of wheel-rail; the order and amplitude of harmonic wear of wheels have significant influence on the creep behavior of flexible wheel-rail relationship, and the overall trend increases with order and amplitude, and the effect of amplitude on the creep behavior is more significant in higher order.It is found that the influence of the fastener stiffness on the creep behavior is correlated with the velocity; when the speed is less than 250 km/h, the impact of the fastener stiffness on the creep rate/force is not significant, but still shows a trend of decreasing with the stiffness; when the speed is higher than 300 km/h, the impact of the fastener stiffness on the creep rate/force is obvious, which shows a trend of increasing with the stiffness.
