Railways, as one of the most important forms of transportation, have been developed rapidly
throughout the world. Meanwhile, the energy consumption and carbon emissions of railway …

Train running safety is a major concern among railway engineers, since a derailment may
cause significant personal and material damages. This problem becomes more important if …

Excessive vibrations of railway vehicles induced by dynamic impact loadings have a
significant impact on train operating safety and stability; however, due to the complexity and …

Polygonisation is a common nonuniform wear phenomenon occurring in railway vehicle
wheels and has a severe impact on the vehicle–track system, ride comfort, and lineside …

High complexity and randomness in high-speed train-bridge interactive dynamic analysis
under earthquake lead to massive calculations in high-speed railway seismic design. To …

This paper investigates comprehensively the resonance and cancellation conditions for the
free vibration of elastically-supported (ES) beams subjected to successive moving loads …

Railway ballast performance is dictated by a complex mix of mechanical properties. These
effect its performance at the particle level for example in terms of particle degradation, but …

Curved bridge has been widely applied in railway lines due to its strong terrain adaptability,
a more refined model that could capture curved bridge vibrations in the train-track-bridge …

A ballasted track system is a multi-layer elastic structure that exhibits complicated
mechanical behaviour under trainloads. Therefore, accurate modelling of these structures is …

With high-speed railway lines increasing gradually, the running safety assessment (RSA) of
train-bridge coupled (TBC) systems has become an indispensable part of railway seismic …
