A dynamic model for the vertical interaction of the rail track and wagon system
Yan Quan Sun,Manicka Dhanasekar +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, a dynamic model is developed to examine the vertical interaction of the rail track and the wagon system, where the wagon with four wheelsets representing two bogies is modelled as a 10 degree of freedom subsystem, and the track is modeled as a four-layer subsystem and the two subsystems are coupled together via the nonlinear Hertz contact mechanism.
Journal ArticleDOI
Modelling, simulation and applications of longitudinal train dynamics
TL;DR: In this article, a co-simulation method that combines longitudinal train simulation, locomotive traction control and locomotive vehicle dynamics is presented, where the most important modelling task, that of the wagon connection, consisting of energy absorption devices such as draft gears and buffers, draw gear stiffness, coupler slack and structural stiffness is presented.

Design and Simulation of Rail Vehicles
Maksym Spiryagin,Colin Cole,Yan Quan Sun,Mitchell McClanachan,Valentyn Spiryagin,Tim McSweeney +5 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors introduce the problems involved in designing and modeling all types of rail vehicles, including freight and passenger rolling stock, locomotives, and self-powered vehicles used for public transport.
Journal ArticleDOI
Simulated comparisons of wagon coupler systems in heavy haul trains
Colin Cole,Yan Quan Sun +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, three types of wagon connection coupling systems are evaluated in a train simulation model consisting of 107 vehicles and the locomotives are placed in groups of two at the head and mid-train positions.
Journal ArticleDOI
Wagon–track modelling and parametric study on rail corrugation initiation due to wheel stick-slip process on curved track
Yan Quan Sun,Scott. Simson +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, a nonlinear wagon-track model is presented for the investigation of rail corrugation formation due to the wheel stick-slip process on curved tracks, where the two wheels in a wheelset are coupled through stiffness coefficients corresponding to the natural torsional and bending modes of wheelset.
