Item Determining the Strained State of Prefabricated Metal Corrugated Structures of a Tunnel Overpass Exposed to the Dynamic Loading from Railroad Rolling Stock(РС Тесhnology Сеntеr, Kharkiv, Ukraine, 2022) Kovalchuk, Vitalii V.; Koval, Maksym; Onyshchenko, Artur; Kravets, Ivan B.; Bal, Olena M.; Markul, Ruslan V.; Vikhot, S.; Petrenko, Oleksiy V.; Rybak, Roman; Milyanych, Andriy R.ENG: This paper reports the analysis of prospects for the use of prefabricated metal corrugated structures in the body of the embankment of a railroad track in the form of a tunnel overpass in order to pass road vehicles and railroad rolling stock. A technique of inertial dynamic tests of the deformed state of a tunnel overpass from prefabricated metal corrugated structures during the passage of railroad rolling stock is given, by measuring accelerations at the top and on the sides of overpass structures. An algorithm is proposed for processing the acceleration signal for assessing the strained state of metal corrugated structures of a tunnel overpass under the action of dynamic load from railroad transport. Experimental dynamic measurements of accelerations arising at the top and on the sides of a tunnel overpass during the passage of passenger and freight railroad rolling stock were carried out. The maximum value of accelerations arising at the top of a tunnel overpass during the passage of a freight train was 7.99 m/s2, and when passing a passenger train – 6.21 m/s2; the maximum accelerations that occur on the sides were 2.63 m/s2 and 1.77 m/s2. It is established that the maximum deformations of metal corrugated structures of the top of a tunnel overpass, when passing freight and passenger trains are, respectively, 1.63 mm and 1.11 mm. The maximum strains of metal corrugated structures on the sides of an overpass are 1.07 mm and 0.48 mm. The value of relative deformations in the vertical and horizontal dimensions of the structures of a tunnel overpass under the action of dynamic loads from the railroad rolling stock has been found. The relative vertical strains of an overpass amounted to 0.020 %; horizontal – 0.012 %. The practical significance of this work is that with the help of the devised procedure for measuring accelerations, it is possible to assess the strained state of metal corrugated structures under the influence of dynamic loads from the railroad rolling stock.Item Devising a Procedure for Assessing the Subgrade Compaction Degree Based on the Propagation Rate of Elastic Waves(РС Тесhnology Сеntеr, Kharkiv, Ukraine, 2021) Kovalchuk, Vitalii V.; Kravets, Ivan B.; Nabochenko, Olga S.; Onyshchenko, Artur; Fedorenko, Olexander; Pentsak, Andriy; Petrenko, Oleksiy V.; Hembara, NataliyaEN: This paper reports the analysis of the methods for estimating the technical condition of the subgrade underneath a constructed railroad track or road during its operation. The study results have proven that the issue related to monitoring and controlling high-quality compac-tion of a heterogeneous subgrade remains relevant and requires the construction of reliable experi-mental methods for assessing the subgrade degree of compaction.A procedure for determining the compaction of subgrade in the laboratory has been devised, based on inertial microcomputer technologies, which makes it pos-sible to assess the degree of com-paction of subgrade soils depend-ing on the propagation rate of an impact's elastic waves.An experimental study has been performed into the propaga-tion rate of elastic waves across a homogeneous subgrade made of coarse-grained sand and a hetero-geneous subgrade made of coarse sand with a layer of clay in the middle of the prism. The study results established that the propa-gation rate of an elastic wave in a heterogeneous subgrade accepts a lower value than the rate of wave propagation in a homogeneous subgrade.Through the dynamic inter-pretation, by using a discriminant statistical analysis, the character-istic features have been defined in the distribution of accelerations in the body of the homogeneous and heterogeneous subgrade, depend-ing on the degree of compaction, which would make it possible to monitor the state of the subgrade during operation. As the degree of the subgrade soil compaction affects the technical condition of roads.Item Estimation of Carrying Capacity of Metallic Corrugated Structures of the Type Multiplate MP 150 During Interaction with Backfill Soil(PC "Technology Center", Ukrainian State University of Railway Transport, Kharkov, 2018) Kovalchuk, Vitalii V.; Kovalchuk, Yuri; Sysyn, Mykola P.; Stankevych, Volodymyr Z.; Petrenko, Oleksiy V.EN: We estimated the stressed state of a railroad structure with a large cross section spanning more than 6 m, which is made from metallic corrugated sheets of the type Multiplate MP 150. The stressed-strained state of the corrugated structure was estimated depending on the residual deformation of vertical diameter of the pipe, the modulus of elasticity of backfill soil, and the degree of compaction. The study conducted has demonstrated that maximum stresses occur on the horizontal sides of a metallic pipe, and maximum deformations ‒ in the pipe vault. It was established that an increase in the degree of compaction of backfill soil leads to a decrease in the stresses in a metallic pipe by almost half. The stresses grow much faster with an increase in irregularity on the railroad track. Numerical calculations have shown that the equivalent stresses exceed the permissible magnitude of 235 MPa when the degree of compaction of backfill soil is below 90 % and an operational irregularity on the track develops beyond the permissible magnitude. Operational observations have shown that the pipe is most vulnerable, in terms of resistance against the formation of a plastic hinge, in the initial period of operation when the backfill soil has not yet reached the standard compaction. At the initial stage of operation of a metallic corrugated pipe it is necessary to improve the level of technological control in order to timely detect railroad track's irregularities that exceed the standards, and to eliminate them. Under normal operational conditions, a metallic corrugated structure has a rather large reserve of carrying capacity, which amounts to 80 %. However, these structures, despite their high initial strength margin, are very sensitive to an increase in external dynamic loads due to the occurrence of irregularity on the railroad track.Item Evaluation Deflected Mode of Point Frogs Mark 1/11 Finite Element Method(НВП ПП «Технологічний Центр», Харків, 2017) Kovalchuk, Vitalii V.; Bolzhelarskyi, Yaroslav V.; Parneta, Bogdan Z.; Pentsak, Andriy; Petrenko, Oleksiy V.; Mudryy, Ihor B.EN: We carried out evaluation of the stressed-strained state of crossings of turnouts by the finite element method in the Ansys programming complex. It was established that under conditions of three-axial compression, at large stresses of vertical compression, the cracks of multi-cycle metal fatigue of the crossing develop. It was found that the development of defects by the code DS 14.1-14.2 on the rolling surface of the cast part of a wing rail and the crossing’s core occurs due to high contact stresses near the edge of the working face of a wing rail and the crossing’s core. They occur in this region in the form of cyclically repeated and sign-alternating normal and tangential stresses from cyclically recurring power impacts from the wheels of rolling stock of railroad transport. It was established that for the normal stresses, values that are maximal by absolute magnitude correspond to the moment when a wheel passes the estiamted cross section of the crossing. For the tangential stresses, on the contrary, at the moment when the wheel is over the estimated cross section, their magnitude is close to zero. The obtained results of the stressed-strained state of crossings are necessary for the optimal design of transverse and longitudinal profiles of the crossing. This will make it possible to extend operation life cycle of the crossings of turnouts and save state budget resources for their current maintenance and repair.Item Investigating the Temperature Field Distribution Over Transport Structures’ Metal Corrugated Construction Surface under Temperature Influences(Széchenyi István University, Győr, Hungary, 2022) Kovalchuk, Vitalii V.; Kravets, Ivan B.; Nabochenko, Olga S.; Petrenko, Oleksiy V.; Milyanych, Andriy R.; Hermaniuk, Yuliia M.; Dzhus, Volodymyr S.ENG: The experimental studies results of temperature distribution over metal corrugated sheet structure surface at positive and negative ambient temperatures are presented. It is established that the temperature is distributed unevenly over the sheet surface along its plane. An analytical method for calculating the temperature field from a fragment of a structure metal sheet in the case of setting the temperature at the sheet area boundaries is presented. The calculation of the temperature field distribution on the metal sheet of the structure with the setting of the temperature along the contour of the sheet is performed. As a result, it is established that at the metal sheet boundaries there is a temperature difference, which can cause the occurrence of temperature stresses and deformations.
