Shaping of the turnout diverging track with variable curvature sections

Abstract

The paper presents an analytical method of shaping the turnout diverging railroad track with variable curvature segments on its length, which in an evident way distinguished it from a typical solution, made up of a single circular arc with no transition curves. Two separate causes including a linear and a nonlinear curvature one in the form of a polynomial have been examined. The obtained solutions of the problem have a universal character, i.e. the possibility to adopt any arbitrary values of curvature at the outset and the end of a geometric layout. Taking advantage of the above a comparative analysis of some selected variants could be carried out.
