Abstract:

The determination of the precise track irregularity with unfavorable wavelength, which shall induce vehicle’s violent vibration in terms of the vehicle’s speeds, still challenges the researchers. This study proposes a feasible study of assessing the track irregularity by using the transfer function and the measured carriage-body acceleration by combining the ARX model with state space model. The ARX model and state space model are constructed using system identification to obtain the transfer relation between the track irregularity and the carriage-body acceleration, respectively. The model’s parameters are estimated by the measured data from the high-speed China Railway Comprehensive Inspection Train (CRCIT). The correlation value between the predicted and measured carriage-body acceleration shows that both models can effectively represent the transfer characteristics between the track irregularity and the carriage-body acceleration. Furthermore, the models can help assess the proportion of the vibration caused by track irregularity with the specific wavelengths and determine the track irregularity with unfavorable wavelength.
