Performance of Shred Tire Mixed with Railway Subgrade in Reduction of Train Induced Vibrations
In this study, the performance of shred tire mixed with railway subgrade is evaluated to reduce environmental vibrations caused by trains’ passage. Since incorporating the Shred Tire seeds in soil affects on its shear strength and deformability parameters so, the first stage of the study was allocated to conducting a series of laboratory tests such as the unconfined compression test, and CBR an...
متن کاملProductivity Management in Iranian Railway by Data Envelopment Analysis
Study of various transportation indicators could be an appropriate criterion in evaluating the performance of the existing railways throughout the globe. This study was carried out to investigate the performance of rolling stock of Iranian railway using productivity analysis. In order to solve the problems, some solutions were provided by productivity management cycle steps. At the first step, ...
متن کاملModeling of a rail suspension system to investigate vertical vibration and effective parameters on it
Railways as a dimension of transportation infrastructure has been widely welcomed in developed and developing industrial countries because of the ability to carry heavy loads over long distances, more safety, less depreciation, less cost, less pollution, etc. Therefore, knowledge of the dynamic behavior of the railway is essential for designers and builders. It is very important to study the vi...
متن کاملPreliminary results on dynamic analysis of a new test rig for wheel-rail contact studies
A new reduced–scale test rig is developed owing to significantly contribute to the applicability of the laboratory tests on rolling contact fatigue (RCF) in wheel-rail material. This paper introduces the dynamic analysis of the test rig, in order to assess the vibration behaviour of the system with respect to contact phenomenon. Finite element modelling (FEM) is used to simulate the mecha...
متن کاملInfluences of Railway Track Geometry Parameters on Ground-Borne Vibration
One of the most important challenges in the development of urban railways network is the effects of railway vibrations on human and adjacent structures. Although various investigations into the sources of railway vibrations have been conducted, very few research works have been reported on the influences of track geometry parameters on the level of vibrations. This is addressed in this resea...
