Abstract

Abstract

To accurately predict the propagation of elastic waves in rails and explore the necessity of considering the bending-torsional coupling (BTC) of Timoshenko beam, a rail-fastener spatial infinite model considering the BTC of the beam was developed based on the spectral element method (SEM) and the symplectic method (SM). Based on model verification, the BTC effect of Timoshenko beam on the lateral natural frequency and velocity admittance of the rail was analyzed, and the effect of vertical preload dependence of fastener pads on the lateral bending vibration characteristics of the rail was analyzed theoretically and experimentally. The research results show that because of the BTC effect of the beam, the lateral bending resonance frequency (BRF) of the rail increases by about 29.6 Hz, and the bending and torsional pinned-pinned modes appear simultaneously in the lateral bending vibration of the rail. The vertical preload dependence of fastener pads mainly affects the lateral low- and mid-frequency vibrations of the rail. As the preload increases, the lateral BRF of the rail increases. When the preload is increased from 30 kN to 50 kN, the measured lateral BRF increases by about 13.7 Hz, while the increase is about 12.5 Hz and 21.7 Hz by considering the BTC effect of the beam or not. The variation law of lateral BRF of the rail considering the BTC of the beam under different preloads is closer to the measured results.
