ZHANG You-shi, JINWei-dong
2005, 18(2): 147-153.
Abstract:
The conceptof“adjacent train”was introduced to build a new model for train operation adjustmenton single-track railways based on their operational characteristics. Since the solution space of themodel is too large to be searchedwith conventionaloperational research (OR) technique, a new algorithm based on genetic algorithm (GA) was proposed. This algorithm divides themodel into sub- models according to the grades of a train followed by solving each sub-model with GA. Simulation results verify the effectiveness and real-time performances of the proposedmodel and algorithm.

2005, 18(2): 153-157.
Abstract:
The transient responses of voltage regulator (VR) to sudden load changes and the parameters of aVR affecting the transient response of output voltage were analyzed to achieve a VR with fast transient responses. The analyses show that using a low equivalent series resistance (ESR) capacitorwith a carefully determined value and raising switching frequency can decrease outputvoltage fal.l Simulation results verify thatdecreasing the inductance of the inductor reduces the outputvoltage fall and response time by about 20% and 60%, respectively; selecting a capacitorwith the critical capacitance reduces the outputvoltage fallby about40%, but increases response time; and compared with voltagemode contro,l currentmode control reduces the output voltage fall and response time by about20% and 70%, respectively.

DENG Ping, YULi-jian
2005, 18(2): 184-188.
Abstract:
The relation betweenGDOP (geometry dilution ofposition) and BS (base station) number at the center of a polygon was derived with and without the correlativity between TDOA ( time difference of arrival) measurements considered. A GDOP method for computing TDOA and TDOA/ AOA (angle of arrival) under NLOS (non-line-of-sight) environment was presented. Theoretical analysis and simulation results show that the correlativity between TDOA measurements increases GDOP, and location performances are improved andGDOP is decreased byTDOA/AOAmethod if the standard error ofAOA measurement is less than 5°.

Abstract:
The natural frequencies of amodel arch structure of concrete-filled steel tube were got by shaking table tests. In addition, a structural analysis software SAP2000 and the finite elementmethod were used to obtain the natural frequencies and vibration modes of the structure. In the numerical analysis three dimensional beam elementswere adopted and concrete-filled steel tube was taken as a combinatorialmateria.l The computed results get a good agreementwith the experimental ones. To extend the research, the dynamic properties of themodel arch structurewere analyzed under different cases. Through changing the structural stiffness, the numberof lateralbraces and fixed conditions, the changes of the natural frequencies and vibration modes were researched and factors influencing the dynamic properties of concrete-filled steel tubular arch structureswere analyzed. The resultshows that increasing lateralbraces can increase the lateral frequencies of an arch structure, the stiffness of arch rib is not an important influencing factor to its natural frequencies.

Abstract:
To reasonably design the longitudinal curves of cable saddles and improve the control precision in construction, the design of longitudinal curves composed of compound arcswas developed based on the analytical solutions for elastic catenary.

The corresponding drawingmethod was proposed to each case. The result shows that it is easier to design amain saddle if the horizontal distances are given.

Abstract:
Dynamic soil stress of a subgrade-culvert transition section from DK49+689. 0 toDK49+ 700. 7 on theQinhuangdao-Shenyang passenger special linewasmeasured and its influencing factors, including train speed, structural changes and soil depth, were analyzed. The results indicate that dynamic earth pressure trends to rise with the increase of train speed. When train speed exceeds 220 km/h, dynamic earth pressure trends to be unchanged, but it is always bigger than the earth pressure ofquasi-static state. In addition, dynamic earth pressure attenuates rapidlywith the increase of soil depth, approaching to the quasi-static earth pressure. Furthermore, it is also related to the structure of subgrade andmuch greater over the culvert than in normal subgrade.
