Popis: The longitudinal drawbar and the lateral stabilizer bar of straddle-type monorail vehicle with the single-axle bogies have relatively long structure size. The multibar system leads to deformation during the driving process due to impact loads, even leads to influence on the dynamic characteristic of the hauling mechanism as well as the riding comfort of the whole vehicle. To evaluate the dynamic behavior of straddle-type monorail vehicle with single-axle bogies accurately, a full-scale rigid-flexible coupling multibody dynamics method is proposed based on multibody dynamics and finite element (FE) theory. The modal synthesis method is adopted to establish flexible multibody dynamics of the single-axle bogies. And then rigid-flexible coupling dynamic model of the straddle-type monorail vehicle is established with the ADAMS software. The validity of the full-scale model is verified. Finally, the influences of vehicle velocity, passenger mass, curve radius and the number of axles on dynamic characteristics are discussed.
