Numerical Analysis Focusing on the Running Safety of an Improved Bogie during Seismic Vibration

Last updated on 04 January 2013 5:41
We conducted research on the derailment and overturning of railway vehicles as a result of earthquakes. Previous numerical simulation helped to clarify the dynamic behavior and running safety limits of vehicles on a vibrating track, and the results of this simulation are currently adopted in the design of railway structures.
