A pilot study of the wind speed along the Rome–Naples HS/HC railway line. Part 1 - Numerical modelling and wind simulations

The safety of railway operation under wind actions has recently become a topical matter due to the development of high-speed trains, which are very sensitive to crosswind conditions. For this reason, RFI (the Italian railway network) has entrusted the University of Genoa with a study of the wind hazard of...
