Summary
This paper aims at characterizing the long time evolution of the vehicle-track system.
The knowledge of the evolution of such a system is of great concern for the railway
industry, in order to maintain a high level of safety and comfort in the trains. We propose
a computational stochastic approach to predict the long time evolution of a given
track portion. The approach is based on an adaptation of the global stochastic model
of track irregularities previously identified with a large experimental data basis. The
nonlinear stochastic dynamics of the train excited by track irregularities are carried
out using a computational multibody dynamics model. Some indicators concerning
the dynamic responses of the train are introduced in order to start off the maintenance
or not of the given track portion.
