Abstract

In order to study the influence of an integration time step on dynamic calculation of a vehicle-track-bridge under high-speed railway, a vehicle-track-bridge (VTB) coupled model is established. The influence of the integration time step on calculation accuracy and calculation stability under different speeds or different track regularity states is studied. The influence of the track irregularity on the integration time step is further analyzed by using the spectral characteristic of sensitive wavelength. According to the results, the disparity among the effect of the integration time step on the calculation accuracy of the VTB coupled model at different speeds is very small. Higher speed requires a smaller integration time step to keep the calculation results stable. The effect of the integration time step on the calculation stability of the maximum vertical acceleration of each component at different speeds is somewhat different, and the mechanism of the effect of the integration time step on the calculation stability of the vehicle-track-bridge coupled system is that corresponding displacement at the integration time step is different. The calculation deviation of the maximum vertical acceleration of the car body, wheel-sets and bridge under the track short wave irregularity state are greatly increased compared with that without track irregularity. The maximum vertical acceleration of wheel-sets, rails, track slabs and the bridge under the track short wave irregularity state all show a significant declining trend. The larger the vibration frequency is, the smaller the range of integration time step is for dynamic calculation.
