  • Assessing Steam Locomotive Dynamics and Running Safety by Computer Simulation
    TRANSPORT PROBLEMS 2015 PROBLEMY TRANSPORTU Volume 10 Special Edition steam locomotive; balancing; reciprocating; hammer blow; rolling stock and track interaction Dāvis BUŠS Institute of Transportation, Riga Technical University Indriķa iela 8a, Rīga, LV-1004, Latvia Corresponding author. E-mail: [email protected] ASSESSING STEAM LOCOMOTIVE DYNAMICS AND RUNNING SAFETY BY COMPUTER SIMULATION Summary. Steam locomotives are preserved on heritage railways and also occasionally used on mainline heritage trips, but since they are only partially balanced reciprocating piston engines, damage is made to the railway track by dynamic impact, also known as hammer blow. While causing a faster deterioration to the track on heritage railways, the steam locomotive may also cause deterioration to busy mainline tracks or tracks used by high speed trains. This raises the question whether heritage operations on mainline can be done safely and without influencing the operation of the railways. If the details of the dynamic interaction of the steam locomotive's components are examined with computerised calculations they show differences with the previous theories as the smaller components cannot be disregarded in some vibration modes. A particular narrow gauge steam locomotive Gr-319 was analyzed and it was found, that the locomotive exhibits large dynamic forces on the track, much larger than those given by design data, and the safety of the ride is impaired. Large unbalanced vibrations were found, affecting not only the fatigue resistance of the locomotive, but also influencing the crew and passengers in the train consist. Developed model and simulations were used to check several possible parameter variations of the locomotive, but the problems were found to be in the original design such that no serious improvements can be done in the space available for the running gear and therefore the running speed of the locomotive should be limited to reduce its impact upon the track.

  • Car Body and Bogie Connection Modification for Track Curves Passability Improvement
    MATEC Web of Conferences 157, 03009 (2018) https://doi.org/10.1051/matecconf/201815703009 MMS 2017 Car body and bogie connection modification for track curves passability improvement Vladimír Hauser1,*, la . Nozhenko1, Kara Kravchenko1, Mária Loulová1, Juraj Gerlici1, Tomáš Lack1 1University of Ţilina, Faculty of Mechanical Engineering, Department of Transport and Handling Machines, Univerzitná 1, 010 26 Ţilina, Slovak Republic Abstract. For Tram cars, it is often necessary to operate in cities on strongly curved track, which is followed by an increased effect of the vehicle on the track. Especially, this increased effect occurs in spiral transition curves situated between direct and arc sections or between two arc sections of different radius. In such case, increased guiding forces, creep in the rail - wheel contact, wear and noise generation can be observed. Exactly with the aim to reduce these undesirable effects we designed a tram bogie with steered wheelsets. This paper deals with a modification of its coupling to vehicle body in order to improve vehicle dynamics in transition curves. Proposed innovative construction of this coupling unit is registered by authors under Utility Model Nr. u201609015 and Utility Model Nr. u201703246. Description of the proposed way for a vehicle to pass through curved track with regard to bogie-body coupling and wheelset steering mechanisms with usage of multibody computing software is given in this paper. Keywords: bogie to vehicle body coupling, track transition curves, tramcar throughput improvement 1 Introduction The way a vehicle passes a track arc depends on many factors. The most important of these include the bogie wheelbase, the distance of pivot pins, the way the car body is mounted on the bogie, the design of the wheelset guiding in the bogie, the track gauge and the width of the track free channel with which the geometry of the wheel and rail profiles is directly related.

SEKON, Editor of the "Railway Magazine" and "Hallway Year Book, Author of "A History of the Great Western Railway," *•., 4*. SECOND EDITION (Enlarged). £on&on THE RAILWAY PUBLISHING CO., Ltd., 79 and 80, Temple Chambers, Temple Avenue, E.C. 1899. T3 in PKEFACE TO SECOND EDITION. When, ten days ago, the first copy of the " Evolution of the Steam Locomotive" was ready for sale, I did not expect to be called upon to write a preface for a new edition before 240 hours had expired. The author cannot but be gratified to know that the whole of the extremely large first edition was exhausted practically upon publication, and since many would-be readers are still unsupplied, the demand for another edition is pressing. Under these circumstances but slight modifications have been made in the original text, although additional particulars and illustrations have been inserted in the new edition. The new matter relates to the locomotives of the North Staffordshire, London., Tilbury, and Southend, Great Western, and London and North Western Railways. I sincerely thank the many correspondents who, in the few days that have elapsed since the publication: of the "Evolution of the , Steam Locomotive," have so readily assured me of - their hearty appreciation of the book. rj .;! G. A. SEKON. -! January, 1899. PREFACE TO FIRST EDITION. In connection with the marvellous growth of our railway system there is nothing of so paramount importance and interest as the evolution of the locomotive steam engine.

  • Advance in Railway Vehicle Technology and Future Prospects Mainly in Relation to Bogie
    NIPPON STEEL & SUMITOMO METAL TECHNICAL REPORT No. 105 DECEMBER 2013 Technical Review UDC 629 . 11 . 011 . 1 Advance in Railway Vehicle Technology and Future Prospects Mainly in Relation to Bogie Satoshi KOIZUMI* Abstract Since the world’s first public railway opened in Britain in 1825, high speed and safety have been the most important technical issues for the improvement of rolling stock perfor- mance. In particular, the trade-off problem between the curve negotiation and the high- speed running stability is a basic issue for bogie design technology. But today, by the use of simulation techniques, we can design the suitable rolling stock for the various applications. For the higher performance of rolling stocks, the following technical issues have been chal- lenged. The issues for high speed are the prevention of hunting, high speed curve negotia- tion by the use of tilting control, brake technology to slow down early from the high-speed range, and acceleration of lightweight. The issues for safety are the derailment prevention on the curve, the safety against the natural disasters. In addition, we are working on a ride comfort, an environmental protection such as noise and vibration, and the issues of main- tenance. 1. Introduction namely ride comfort and environmental protection, are dealt with. Ever since the first public railway of the world began its opera- What is required for maintenance of railway vehicles, an issue of in- tion in the U.K. in 1825, the most fundamental requirement for rail- creasing attention, is also considered, and finally, some prospects for way technology has been the pursuit for higher speeds and safety.
