  1. 1. Improved Bridge Load Capacity via Dynamic Train-Track-Bridge Interaction : Assessing the dynamic amplification factor caused by measured track irregularities for rail freight transport

    University essay from KTH/Bro- och stålbyggnad

    Author : Muhannad Asaad; [2023]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : The carbon impact of transportation is large and requires sustainable solutions. With expected population growth, rail transportation plays a vital role in facilitating a greener Europe. The expansion of the rail infrastructure is therefore of essential importance for future challenges. READ MORE

  2. 2. Parametric Studies of Train-Track-Bridge Interaction : An evaluation of the dynamic amplification due to track irregularities for freight transport

    University essay from KTH/Bro- och stålbyggnad

    Author : Rasmus Elm Dahlman; Emil Lundberg; [2021]
    Keywords : Dynamics; dynamic amplification factor; railway bridge; train-track-bridge interaction; vehicle model; track irregularities; PSD; Dynamisk förstoringsfaktor; dynamik; järnvägsbroar; tåg-spår-bro interaktion; fordonsmodell; spårojämnheter; PSD;

    Abstract : In this thesis a train-track-bridge interaction (TTBI) model is developed in order to study the dynamic amplification from track irregularities on railway bridges traversed by freight trains. These simulations are of great importance since rail freight transport is expected to increase in order to meet the climate goals. READ MORE
