High-speed train–track–bridge dynamic interactions – Part I: theoretical model and numerical simulation

Wanming Zhai, He Xia, Chengbiao Cai et al. · 17 Apr 2013

This paper presents a framework to systematically investigate the high-speed train–track–bridge dynamic interactions, aiming to provide a method for analysing and assessing the running safety and the ride comfort of trains passing through bridges, which are critically important for the design of new high-speed railway bridges. Train–track–bridge interactive mechanism is illustrated. A fundamental model is…

Railway-induced ground vibrations – a review of vehicle effects

Georges Kouroussis, David P. Connolly, Olivier Verlinden · 3 Apr 2014

This paper is a review of the effect of vehicle characteristics on ground- and track borne-vibrations from railways. It combines traditional theory with modern thinking and uses a range of numerical analysis and experimental results to provide a broad analysis of the subject area. First, the effect of different train types on vibration propagation is…

Experimental investigation on vibration behaviour of a CRH train at speed of 350 km/h

Wanming Zhai, Pengfei Liu, Jianhui Lin et al. · 2 Jan 2015

The objective of the article is to investigate the vibration characteristic and the long-term service performance of a China Railway High-speed (CRH) train at operation speed of 350 km/h through on-track field tests. The article first introduces the test method and system as well as the field conditions including the main parameters of the test…

High-speed train–track–bridge dynamic interactions – Part II: experimental validation and engineering application

Wanming Zhai, Wang Shaolin, Nan Zhang et al. · 17 Apr 2013

Experimental validation is a precondition for dynamic simulation of high-speed train–track–bridge interaction system to be applied to railway engineering in the field. The paper first presents an onsite experiment of the train–track–bridge interaction dynamics carried out on the Beijing–Tianjin high-speed railway, and then the experimental results are used to validate the train–track–bridge interaction simulation software…

Recent developments in the prediction and control of aerodynamic noise from high-speed trains

David Thompson, Eduardo Latorre Iglesias, Xiaowan Liu et al. · 5 Jun 2015

At speeds above 300–350 km/h, the main source of noise from trains is the aerodynamic noise caused by the air flow over the train structure. The sound level increases with train speed at a rate of between 60 and 80 times the logarithm of the speed so that, as speeds increase further, the noise increases…

International Journal of Rail Transportation template — frequently asked questions

How do I write a paper in the International Journal of Rail Transportation format?
In DocuGuru you write your manuscript in a normal editor — no LaTeX setup required — and select the International Journal of Rail Transportation template. When you export, DocuGuru compiles the paper into the official Taylor & Francis format and hands you a submission-ready PDF along with the editable LaTeX source.
What reference style does International Journal of Rail Transportation use?
International Journal of Rail Transportation uses Numbered (Vancouver/NLM) references, shown as numbered [1], [2] markers in the text. DocuGuru formats every in-text citation and the reference list in this exact style automatically. A reference appears like this: 1. Smith A, Jones B, Lee C. A representative article title. International Journal of Rail Transportation. 2023;12(3):45–58.
Do I need to know LaTeX to submit to International Journal of Rail Transportation?
No. DocuGuru generates the interact LaTeX class and compiles the PDF for you in the background, so you get a Taylor & Francis-ready International Journal of Rail Transportation document without writing any LaTeX. If you do want it, the LaTeX source is included in the export.
Can I import an existing draft into the International Journal of Rail Transportation template?
Yes. Paste or upload your current manuscript — Word, LaTeX, Markdown, or plain text — and DocuGuru reflows it into the International Journal of Rail Transportation format with correct headings, figures, tables, and numbered citations.
