Mathematical Modeling of Shock Wave Interaction with Wagon

Abstract
EN: In case of some accidents on railways there may be situations when the shock wave appears and interacts with different objects on the railway (wagons, cargo, buildings etc.). In these cases it is necessary to predict the possible effect of shock wave diffraction on the different objects. Study of these problems on the basis of physical experiments (laboratory experiment or field experiment) demand expensive and unique experimental facility. In some cases physical experiment can’t be set. That is why mathematical simulation plays the important role in solving problem connected with shock wave propagation. For practice it is necessary to have predictive quick computing mathematical models which allow to perform numerical experiment on the basis of non-powerful computers. Now, in Ukraine, there is a real deficit of mathematical models which allow to compute quickly shock wave interaction with different objects. The aim of this work was development of quick computing numerical model to simulate shock wave propagation and its interaction with the wagons. The model is based on the numerical integration of Euler equations which are written in integral form. To solve modeling equations difference scheme of splitting was used. Results of numerical modeling are presented.
