Abstract
According to time-temperature superposition (TTS) and WLF formula, the temperature-dependent and frequency-dependent kinetic parameters of the railpads of WJ-7 fasteners were predicted based on the experimental results at a certain frequency and under the different temperatures. By combining the pseudo excitation method and symplectic mathematics scheme, the impact of railpads frequency-dependent and temperature-dependent stiffness on the random variation of the coupled vehicle-track system was investigated efficiently. The results suggest that, within the range of environment temperature and frequency-dependent extent of railpads in the railway, the PSD peak of the vertical random vibration acceleration of the wheelsets and rail gets the largest increase of 3.3 times at least, and the increment of their 1st dominant frequency also reaches up to 20.6 Hz or more. Therefore, in order to accurately analyze the random vibration responses of the vehicle-track coupled system, experiments must be conducted to obtain the accurate kinetic parameters of the polymer materials like railpads.
