  • Effects of Strong Cross Winds on High-Speed Trains: a Methodol- Ogy for Risk Assessment and Development of Countermeasures
    Effects of Strong Cross Winds on High-Speed Trains: A methodol- ogy for risk assessment and development of countermeasures Gerd Matschke, Peter Deeg, Burkhard Schulte-Werning FTZ, Aerodynamik und Klimatechnik Deutsche Bahn AG, Research & Technology Centre Völckerstrasse 5, 80939 München 1 INTRODUCTION The effect of side winds on rail transport has been investigated since the 1970s by interna- tional research, especially by the railways in Germany, England and Japan. For the DB the subject of side winds only became important with the introduction of the ICE2 with its fast, light driving trailer. Since then DB has been involved in intensive interdisciplinary co- operation to develop a generally valid method for rail transport to guarantee that railways can operate safely with a strong side wind. A basic procedure was described and discussed in 1997 at the World Congress for Railway Research [17]. This paper describes the methodology derived from its continuous further development, as summarised in the Draft Code of Practice Ril 401 of Deutsche Bahn pub- lished in May 2000. The procedure specified in Code of Practice Ril 401 was recognised in May 2000 by the Eisenbahn-Bundesamt (Federal Railway Office - EBA) as a means of proving that railway traffic can run safely when there is a side wind and has since then be- come part of the vehicle acceptance procedure used by the EBA. 2 BASIC PRINCIPLES AND PROCEDURE The effect of side wind on rail vehicles is basically determined by the following parameters: The vehicle properties such as shape, weight, position of centre of gravity, running gear properties, etc.

TROIS ORIENTATIONS STRATÉGIQUES La vision stratégique de TFMM, présentée par Fréderic Delorme et portée par son nouveau COMEX, s’appuie sur trois axes majeurs : • Consolider Fret SNCF, leader en France, et se différencier grâce à son système mutualisé du groupage de wagons (gestion capacitaire et wagon isolé) pour capter de nouveaux trafics en développant notamment les coopérations avec les autres entreprises historiques européennes. • Refonder le modèle économique des autoroutes ferroviaires pour assurer leur viabilité à long terme en France et leur extension en Europe. • Accompagner le Green Deal européen grâce à une stratégie de développement rentable des marques Captrain, Forwardis et Naviland Cargo. Pour soutenir cette stratégie, la structuration de TFMM va évoluer d'ici la fin d'année avec : - La création d’un sous-ensemble Rail Logistics Europe - L’adossement de VIIA à la marque mère SNCF pour réaffirmer l'intérêt général des activités d'autoroutes ferroviaires - L'intégration de VFLI au réseau Captrain, VFLI sera renommé Captrain France.
