Nonlinear dynamic analysis of a stochastic delay wheelset system

Abstract

Considering not only the stochastic track irregularity and the possible effect of stochastic parameter excitation, but also the time delay of spring, that is, its response is in place, but the force generated is not in place, a stochastic delay wheelset system is established. The infinite dimensional system is reduced to the finite dimensional stochastic differential equation by using the center manifold, and further reduced to a one-dimensional diffusion process by using the stochastic averaging method. The stability of the wheelset system is obtained by analyzing the singular boundary theory and calculating the maximum Lyapunov exponent. The conditions and types of stochastic bifurcation in wheelset system are obtained by combining probability density function. The numerical simulation verifies the correctness of the theoretical analysis and shows that the time delay affects the critical hunting instability speed of wheelset. The stochastic term affects the lateral displacement of the stochastic delay wheelset system.
