Recently, trains’ velocities in Korea increased more than the speed used in the design of some bridges. Accordingly, this paper demonstrates the evaluation of a railway bridge due to high-speed trains’ movement. A nondestructive monitoring system is used to assess the bridge performance under train speeds of 290, 360, 400 and 406 km/h. This system is comprised of a wireless short-term accelerat...

Analysis of the slipstream development around the high-speed trains in tunnels would provide references for assessing the transient gust loads on trackside workers and trackside furniture in tunnels. This paper focuses on the computational analysis of the slipstream caused by high-speed trains passing through double-track tunnels with a cross-sectional area of 100 m2. Three-dimensional unsteady...

In the complex operation environment of high-speed trains, the comprehensive evaluation index systems with high scientificity and measurability have been established after the all-round analysis of various effects on comfort for high-speed train. Meanwhile, a comprehensive evaluation method on comfort for high-speed train has been built by the rough set theory and multidimensional coefficient t...

High-speed train is a large-scale electromechanical coupling equipment with complex structure, where the interlaced between various system components, and excitation sources are diverse. Therefore, reliability has become top priority for safe operation of high-speed trains. As operating mileage trains increases, key systems experience degrees performance degradation damage failures. Moreover, i...
