Abstract

High-precision vehicle-track coupled dynamical models play a vital role in assessing the running safety of the vehicle, tracking fatigue behavior, and establishing a digital twin for high-speed railways. This study established a high-fidelity vehicle-track coupled dynamical model as a forward solver, which was then updated in a Bayesian inference framework based on the field tests of rail irregularities and wheel/rail normal contact forces. The prediction errors corresponding to different time steps were represented through a Gaussian process (GP) model characterized by a covariance function with the Gaussian kernel to incorporate the correlation between different time steps. To cope with the considerable expense of the likelihood function calculations with large-scale loop operations and the computational burden due to the large batch of repetitive evaluations of the high-fidelity forward model involved in the stochastic sampling from the posterior probability distribution, a metamodel-powered parallelizing stochastic sampling scheme was adopted. The posterior distribution could be formulated by replacing the expensive explicit model evaluation involved in the likelihood function with a Polynomial-Chaos-Kriging (PC-Kriging) predictor providing a surrogate mapping between the wheel/rail normal contact forces and physical parameters. Finally, a parallelizing computing scheme running across multiple CPU cores on high-performance computers was realized to sample from the vectorized formula of the emulator-powered posterior distribution. Field test data from a high-speed railway in China was adopted to demonstrate that the Bayesian inference scheme can quantify the uncertainties of the core physical parameters of the high-fidelity vehicle-track coupled dynamical system by efficiently trading off accuracy and computational efficiency.
