Exploratory investigation of aerodynamic loads on trains on embankments. Interpretation of study conducted by Mott MacDonald

Mott MacDonald have been employed by Railtrack WCRM to perform a 'quick look' investigation into the aerodynamic loads on trains on embankments in comparison to those on trains on level ground. Two-dimensional numerical techniques have been used to give qualitative general trends of changes in aerodynamic loads with embankment height,...
