Robust control and actuator dynamics compensation for railway vehicles (2016)
Journal Article
Bideleh, S., Mei, T., & Berbyuk, V. (2016). Robust control and actuator dynamics compensation for railway vehicles. Vehicle System Dynamics, 54(12), 1762-1784. https://doi.org/10.1080/00423114.2016.1234627

A robust controller is designed for active steering of a high speed train bogie with solid axle wheel sets to reduce track irregularity effects on the vehicle’s dynamics and improve stability and curving performance. A half-car railway vehicle model... Read More about Robust control and actuator dynamics compensation for railway vehicles.

Design and optimisation of wheel-rail profiles for adhesion improvement (2016)
Journal Article
Liu, B., Mei, T., & Bruni, S. (2016). Design and optimisation of wheel-rail profiles for adhesion improvement. Vehicle System Dynamics, 54(3), 429-444. https://doi.org/10.1080/00423114.2015.1137958

This paper describes a study for the optimisation of the wheel profile in wheel-rail system to increase the overall level of adhesion available at the contact interface, in particular to investigate how the wheel and rail profile combination may be d...
