• Abstract:
  The prime objective of this project was to create scientific, immersive visualizations of a Rail-simulation. This project is a part of a larger initiative that consists of three distinct parts. The first step consists of performing a finite element analysis to determine modal stiffness values and mode shapes of a particular railway track and substructure geometry. The second step involves running a simulation using this information to analyze the effects of a locomotive passive over this sub-structure. The third step involves creating an 'Immersive Visualization of the Rail Simulation Data' using the CAVE2 CAVE2, the central scope of this project.
