| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Simulation of a large number of deformable bodies is often difficult because complex high-level modeling is required to address both multi-body contact and viscoelastic deformation. In this study, a quadruple discrete element method (QDEM) was developed for dynamic analysis of viscoelastic materials using a simpler algorithm compared to the standard finite element method (FEM). First, the fundamental performance of QDEM was investigated for viscoelastic analysis. The amplitude and frequency of cantilever elastic vibration were nearly equal to those obtained by the standard FEM. Therefore, the high accuracy of QDEM in the fundamental analysis of infinitesimal viscoelastic deformations was verified.
Finally, the sleeper and ballast motion modeled using QDEM was coupled with the rail motion modeled using FEM. The traffic impact response of a ballast particle and a sleeper was analyzed. The three-dimensional spatial distribution of ballast particle displacement was clearly revealed.
