Nowadays, with various advancements in the railway industry and increasing speed of
trains, the design of railway tracks and vehicles has become vitally important. One of the …

In this work, we assessed the capabilities of a method that uses a multibody system
description of railway vehicles based on a moving coordinate system in combination with …

This study investigates the simultaneous effects of unsupported sleepers and rail random
irregularities on track displacement and wheel load reduction, by means of numerical …

This paper presents a procedure that makes use of a particular formulation based on the
trajectory coordinate system (TCS) approach, which is specific of ground vehicles, to …

This paper is a summary of the research done at the University of Seville in the field of
railway dynamics in the last 20 years. This research is separated in this paper in two …

This work is devoted to the validation of a computational dynamics approach previously
developed by the authors for the simulation of moving loads interacting with flexible bodies …

This paper presents a method to model the flexibility of railroad tracks for the dynamic
analysis of vehicle-track interaction. In addition to being a complex structure, the flexible …
