Sentence examples for the rail model from inspiring English sources

Three examples using the rail model in the FE tool were assessed: (a) an initially stress-free rail, (b) a measured residual stress field in a newly manufactured rail, and (c) a calculated residual stress field from the cooling and roller straightening analyses.

The wheelset is modelled as a flexible rotating body using an Eulerian approach, whereas track is regarded as an infinite periodic system with the rail modelled as a Timoshenko beam resting on discrete elastic supports, considering the inertia associated with the sleepers.

The light rail model would have used the same approach as the tram in Ørestad, but would instead have run through a tunnel in the city centre.

In the track model, the rail is assumed to be an Euler-Bernoulli beam supported by discrete sleepers.

Furthermore, contrasting most papers considering either the road or the rail mode, we provide models on a common basis for both modes of transportation.

The results became the initial conditions in a three-dimensional elastic-plastic rail model; the model is part of an FE tool developed for rolling contact fatigue (RCF) analysis of rails.

; P90 TR The P90 TR (Triple Rail) model, also known as the "flat-top," was introduced in late 1999.

Open image in new window Fig. 1 diagram of the Rail Competition Model.

The rail capacity model results demonstrate that shifting grain from conventional to shuttle service significantly increases rail capacity.

Kalker's linear creep theory offers an easy solution to incorporate creep forces into the rail vehicle model as a function of the speed of the rail vehicle.

Moreover, the rail crowding model would also enable overcrowding conditions to be simulated, in which passengers could decide not to take the first arriving train, but wait for the following one (hoping it will be less crowded), although this would entail an increase in their waiting time.
