Development of a Finite Element Methodology for Flexible Track Models in Railway Dynamics Applications
The dynamic analysis of railway vehicles involves the construction of three independent models: the vehicle model; the track model; and the wheel-rail contact model. In this work, a multibody formulation with Cartesian coordinates is used to describe the kinematic structure of the rigid bodies and joints that constitute the vehicle model. A methodology is also proposed in order to create detail...
متن کاملTime Finite Element Methods for Structural Dynamics
Time finite element methods are developed for the equations of structural dynamics. The approach employs the time-discontinuous Galerkin method and incorporates stabilizing terms having least-squares form. These enable a general convergence theorem to be proved in a norm stronger than the energy norm. Results are presented from finite difference analyses of the time-discontinuous Galerkin and l...
متن کاملApplication of the Fuzzy Finite Element Method in Structural Dynamics
In the domain of structural dynamics, small uncertainties on models are known to cause possibly large uncertainties on analysis results. Therefore, techniques have been developed to include the effect of the uncertainties on the model in the calculation of the results of an analysis. The Monte Carlo simulation calculates these uncertainties by performing a stochastic analysis on the results of ...
متن کاملTheoretical Formulations for Finite Element Models of Functionally Graded Beams with Piezoelectric Layers
In this paper an overview of functionally graded materials and constitutive relations of electro elasticity for three-dimensional deformable solids is presented, and governing equations of the Bernoulli–Euler and Timoshenko beam theories which account for through-thickness power-law variation of a two-constituent material and piezoelectric layers are developed using the principle of virtua...
متن کاملDynamics of Flexible Multibody Systems with Non-Holonomic Constraints: A Finite Element Approach
In this article it is shown how non-holonomic constraints can be included in the formulation of the dynamic equations of flexible multibody systems. The equations are given in state space form with the degrees of freedom, their derivatives and the kinematic coordinates as state variables, which circumvents the use of Lagrangian multipliers. With these independent state variables for the system ...
