Abstract:

High-speed rail (HSR) is a complex system incorporating various technical aspects such as infrastructure, rolling stock (specially-designed train sets), telecommunications, operating conditions, and equipment. With the requirements for deflections, rotations, and natural frequencies of HSR bridge structures, comprehensive understanding of the HSR dynamic interactions is a topic of growing interest. Accordingly, many studies over the past few decades have been conducted, mostly internationally, with a focus on dynamic interaction between the different components of HSR train/bridge systems through sophisticated structural models. The focus of this research is to identify these modeling features and inherent characteristics of HSR bridges, and to provide guidance and demonstration examples on how to develop such models in OpenSees. The main objective of this study was to create a comprehensive modeling guideline for HSR bridge systems.
