Numerical study on effect of crosswind on the cooling-fan flow and smoke diffusion of power pack suspended under the diesel train

Case Studies in Thermal Engineering
Development of power packs suspended under the diesel train towards high power and high integration has been driven by the development of technology. The wind environment of the railway lines is complex and variable, strong crosswind would exacerbate the

Active Control Method for Pantograph-Catenary System Based on Neural Network PID Under Crosswind Conditions

Machines
Crosswind is a critical environmental factor affecting the dynamic interaction between the pantograph and catenary in high-speed trains, which can severely compromise the operational stability of the system. To address this challenge, this study develops

Mitigating crosswind response of a high-speed train passing the end of windbreak walls

Advances in Wind Engineering
The sudden change in wind speed at the end of a windbreak wall poses a significant threat to train safety, as it amplifies train’s responses. This study aims to investigate countermeasures to reduce the maximum unsteady crosswind response of high-speed ...

Nonlinear Simulation of Terminal Maneuvers Including Landing Gear Dynamics, Crosswind and Ground Effect

Applied Sciences
Terminal flight phases, particularly landing, are among the most critical, due to low altitude, low speed and the possible presence of crosswinds. Tools capable of accurately modeling and simulating these phases are essential for identifying potential ...

Flight investigation of piloting techniques and crosswind limitations using a research type crosswind landing gear [PDF]

, 1979
A research-type crosswind landing gear was tested in a flight program which used a light STOL transport in strong crosswind conditions. The research-type crosswind landing gear used enabled the airplane to land to crosswinds up to a magnitude of 25 to 30
