The future of high-speed train
Proceedings Autonomous Decentralized Systems, 2005. ISADS 2005., 2005 High-speed intercity railways have grown into profitable business, achieving a renaissance in rail transport. High-speed railways need constant updating to new systems if they are to be winners in this age of competing transportation modes. In view of that situation, JR East started an R&D project to achieve even faster speeds-more than 300km/h. A test

Rail fatigue crack propagation in high-speed wheel/rail rolling contact
Journal of Modern Transportation, 2017 To study the wheel/rail rolling contact fatigue of high-speed trains, we obtain the distribution of contact forces between wheel and rail by introducing the strain-rate effect.

Aerodynamics of railway train/tunnel system: A review of recent research
Energy and Built Environment, 2020 The coupling and complexity of railway train / tunnel system are further aggravated by increasing train speed, which produces a series of aerodynamics problems, such as aerodynamic drag, slipstream, pressure wave and micro pressure wave.

Route management modeling of high-speed trains on the train dispatcher section [PDF]
E3S Web of Conferences, 2023 This article gives a brief overview on fragmentation and how to prepare for a high-speed train. Currently, on the sections where high-speed trains run, the train dispatcher uses his experience and high skills to solve this problem by preparing train ...

High-speed trains: in microchannels? [PDF]
Journal of Fluid Mechanics, 2016 Kahkeshani et al. (J. Fluid Mech., vol. 786, 2016, R3) have studied particle ordering in suspension flow in a rectangular microchannel. Experiments and numerical simulations reveal that inertial focusing and hydrodynamic interactions result in long-lived ‘trains’ of regularly spaced particles.

About the influence of wheel-rail adhesion on the maximum speed of trains
MATEC Web of Conferences, 2018 Wheel-rail adhesion is a fundamental aspect in rail transport, with high impact on traction and braking of trains. In the case of high speeds trains, wheel-rail adhesion is particularly important, as the maximum usable traction force is limited by the ...

AGAINTS AND FOR THE HIGH SPEED TRAINS’ MULTIMPLICATION [PDF]
Annals of the University of Oradea: Economic Science, 2008 In this exposure we intend to make visible the situation in which global warming is given by road and air transport, how could be revitalized railways, and how high speed trains could become a preferred mode of transport. But there is manifesting an opposition to railway development, nurtured by different interests, ranking from governments themselves,
