I have a model where I am running LM71 load trains on two tracks simultaneously using ELLA module. When i check the longitudinal force, I get a load which is equivalent to maximum of braking/traction x 2 (for 2 tracks) x pfac (1.21).
But as per latest eurocode, you have to reduce the longitudinal load to half on one track. or you have to consider full braking on 1 track and full traction on another. Iam not sure how to implement this in TEDDY? Can someone please help me in understanding this. Thank you
In this case you must use different CASEs with different load trains, for example:
- CASE 1 with two load trains with half values for breaking
- CASE 2 with two other load trains with full braking and full traction
By the way: P8 im LM71 can be braking and traction, see SOFiLOAD manual chapter 5.5 and screenshot.
