Abstract

Based on higher-order shear deformation theory (HSDT), the bending of China Railway Track System type II (CRTS-II) track laminated plates on elastic foundations and interlayer shearing performances are analyzed by meshfree radial point interpolation method (RPIM), which has the properties of the Kronecker function and discretizes the governing equations derived from HSDT. To verify the applicability of the model, the geometric configuration and key parameters of the CRTS-II slab ballastless track structure are analyzed, and the interlaminar slip model of the track structure is derived as a benchmark solution when calculating the track structure using HSDT-RPIM. The accuracy of the derivation is verified by comparing the HSDT-RPIM model with a double-layer slab model considering bidirectional interlayer slip. Then, the effect of resistant slip coefficient on the bending deformation of the track structure was analyzed using the bidirectional interlaminar slip model. The effect of elastic foundation coefficient on the bending of the track structure and the interlayer slip of the track structure (track slab – base slab) was analyzed. Finally, the effects of boundary conditions and elastic foundation coefficients on the interlaminar stresses of the track structure are investigated using HSDT-RPIM, and some interlaminar damages of the track structure are explained.
