Analysis and Optimization of Influencing Factors for Turnout Lateral Passing Performance of Rubber-tired Metro by DU Zixue, XU Chenyu, YANG Zhen, LIAO Congjian

“…［Result & Conclusion］ With the vertical force of the running wheel, the lateral force of the guide wheel, the lateral force of the axle, the load transfer coefficient of the running wheel, and the roll angle of the car body as evaluation indexes, it is concluded that the vertical stiffness of air spring has the greatest impact on the turnout lateral passing performance of rubber-tired metro vehicles, followed by the damping of the vertical shock absorber and the radial stiffness of the guide wheel and etc. …”

RESEARCH ON MECHANICAL PROPERTIES OF GRADIENT LATTICE STRUCTURES BASED ON VORONOI METHOD (MT) by LIN Wei, YANG FengShuang, SHI YingYu

“…The results of finite element analysis and experiments show that the mechanical properties of lattice structures with different gradients generated by Voronoi method are better than that of the uniform lattice structure; in the “inward” gradient lattice structures, the mechanical properties of the lattice structure with gradient grade 0.6 are the best, with good shock resistance and vibration reduction; in the “outward” gradient lattice structures, the mechanical properties of the lattice structure with gradient grade 0.8 is the best. …”
