AERODYNAMICS OF HIGH-SPEED TRAINS BASED ON A COMPARISON OF RESULTS FROM MODEL TESTS, FULL-SCALE MEASUREMENTS AND THEORETICAL STUDIES

VERGLEICH ZWISCHEN MODELLUND ORIGINALMESSERGEBNISSEN SOWIE DER THEORIE ZUR SCHNELLBAHN-AERODYNAMIK

The aerodynamics described were conducted to predict the air resistance for performance calculations, aerodynamic forces for calculation of stability and wheel/rail dynamics and transient air pressures for window or structure loads and passenger comfort criteria.
