Construction of Active Steering Control System for the Curving Performance Analysis of the Scaled Railway Vehicle

摘要

This paper describes the construction of active steering control system for the curving performance analysis of scaled railway vehicle. Active steering system of railway vehicles is designed to alleviate wheel/rail contact forces and to decrease wheel/rail wear. The active steering control system consists of the remote control station module, the steering controller module, the battery module, the driving bogie module, the steering bogie module, and various sensors module. The proposed active steering control system is tested in the 1/5 scale research vehicle and R=20 curved track, and we could verify the effectiveness and performance of the proposed system.
