On the Structural Distortion Induced by the Inverse Box-Cox Transformation

Development of a modelling framework for running safety analysis of a heavy-haul freight vehicle crossing a bridge under different loading conditions

Evaluation of train running safety for freight and heavy-haul railway vehicles is a poorly addressed topic in the literature, despite their distinct dynamic behaviour and track conditions compared with passenger and high-speed railways. For this purpose, a framework for the development of a three-dimensional numerical analysis of train running safety crossing a bridge using a vehicle-structure interaction methodology is presented. Numerical models of the railway bridge were developed and cali...
