Abstract

In order to make further study on the mechanical property of CRTSIII type slab non-ballast track structures, which was self-designed in China, based on the method of the multiscale finite element model (FEM), the traditional FEM of slab non-ballast track structures was improved. The multiscale FEM of CRTSIII type slab non-ballast track structures was established based on the general finite element program ABAQUS. Then the comparative calculation was made between various FEMs, showing that the high solution precision, fast modelling speed and high solution efficiency could be obtained. Therefore, the multiscale FEM was suitable for the parametric study on mechanical behaviour of CRTSIII type slab non-ballast track structures, and then the key influence factor and constructions could be optimized.
