Mechanical Properties and Structural Optimization of Continuous Welded Rail on Super-Long-Span Suspension Bridges for High-Speed Railway

In order to ensure driving safety and comfort, it is necessary to figure out the complex interaction between continuous welded rail (CWR) and suspension bridges for high-speed railway. A spatial finite element model for a 1092 m main span suspension bridge was established based on the bridge-track interaction theory. A specific correction method was put forward to keep the rail in a zero-stress state when just laid. Three rail expansion joint (REJ) layout schemes were proposed according to practical engineering experience. Both static and dynamic analysis methods were used to evaluate the feasibility of these schemes. The results show that the REJ should be laid at the position with a distance away from the primary beam end, and the beam with more substantial integral stiffness should be preferentially selected. For the recommended scheme, the REJ expansion reaches more than 380 mm under expansion load. The factors affecting the REJ expansion from major to minor are temperature, earthquake, rail fracture, braking, and bending load. The superposition effect of the above factors is suggested to be considered in the selection of REJ range.
