Low adhesion detection and identification in a railway vehicle system using traction motor behaviour [PDF]
It is important to monitor the wheel-rail friction coefficient in railway vehicles to improve their traction and braking performance as well as to reduce the number of incidents caused by low friction. Model based fault detection and identification (FDI)

On the Scale Size of the Aerodynamic Characteristics of a High-Speed Train [PDF]
In the wind tunnel test of trains, the scale size changes the Reynolds numbers of trains, which may affect the aerodynamic characteristics of the train.

Experimentally based numerical models and numerical simulation with parameter identification of human lumbar FSUs in traction [PDF]
Numerical simulation of the behaviour of human lumbar spine segments, moreover, parameter-identification of the component organs of human lumbar FSUs are presented in traction therapies, by using FEM analysis. First, a simple 2D model, than a refined 2D

Boundary controllability and source reconstruction in a viscoelastic string under external traction [PDF]
Treatises on vibrations devote large space to study the dynamical behavior of an elastic system subject to known external tractions since usually a ``system'' is part of a chain of mechanisms which disturb the ``system'' for example due to the periodic ...

Damage Tolerance Assessment of a Brake Unit Bracket for High-Speed Railway Welded Bogie Frames
The brake unit bracket of a bogie frame is an important load-carrying component, particularly under emergency start/stop conditions. Conventional infinite/safe life approaches provide an over-conservative recommendation for the allowable strength and ...

Re-adhesion control for a railway single wheelset test rig based on the behaviour of the traction motor [PDF]
A method for detecting wheel slip/slide and re-adhesion control of AC traction motors in railway applications is presented in this paper. This enables a better utilisation of available adhesion and could also reduce wheel wear by reducing high creep ...
