To reduce the occurrence of accidents during the train-to-train collision test, it is necessary to carry out research on derailment protection. According to the characteristics of the train-to-train collision test, a method of using a U-steel as a guard rail is proposed. The protection range of the guard rail is obtained through the geometric relat...

Productivity can be increased by manipulators tracking the desired trajectory with some constraints. Humans as moving obstacles in a shared workspace are one of the most challenging problems for cable-driven parallel mechanisms (CDPMs) that are considered in this research. One of the essential primary issues in CDPM is collision avoidance among cab...
The wheels and rails of the train, tram etc. are often verified from their microstructure and plastic deformation, which usually appear in the outer layer of a wheel and rail, to analyse the causes of geometrical defects by monitoring the applied loads and variation of the temperature as suggested in the literature. This paper studies the effect of...
The paper presents the author�s investigations on dynamics of a railway vehicle, especially the effect of various factors on the running safety. The applied simulation methods used for analysis of running safety are in agreement the technical standards UIC 518 and EN 14363. The numerical simulations are performed for non-linear model of railway veh...
When making a goal-directed movement towards a target, our hand follows abrupt background motion. This response resembles that of a shift in the target’s position. Does background motion simply change the position towards which the movement is guided? If so, the response to background motion should resemble the response to a target displacement. To...
Carbon fiber reinforced composites have the advantages of high specific strength and stiffness, which are widely used in rail vehicles. As one of the most commonly used connection forms for maglev train bodies, it is important to ensure the strength and reliability of the joint under different temperatures. Therefore, the paper takes the perspectiv...

... The section shape is optimized for multiple objectives, resulting in reduced stress and improved protection ability. The results show that the optimized guard rail can effectively reduce displacement and rotation of the bogie, but it may still face damage risks under certain conditions [14]. Antonio J. Sala proposes a new system to reduce the risk of derailment at crossings in railway lines. ...
This study proposes a theoretical method to estimate the impact force of Derailment Containment Provisions (DCPs) for the prevention of secondary collisions in the event of a train derailment. By comparing the impact forces estimated using the commonly used Olson model and dynamic simulations, the study identifies significant differences in average and maximum impact forces. The study shows that these differences arise due to the mass effects of vehicle bodies transmitted to the DCP during a collision. To address this issue, the impact force of the Olson model was modified by considering the stiffness of suspensions between masses as a simplified spring–mass model. The modified impact force was verified through impact simulations using the KTX model on curved tracks with various radii. The results show that the modified Olson model provides a reasonable estimate of the impact force, with differences of less than 8% observed under all simulation conditions. This study provides a valuable contribution to the design and analysis methodology for DCPs, improving their effectiveness in preventing secondary collisions and enhancing railway safety.
