Abstract

This paper shows that the dynamic study of a railway vehicle in curve can be reduced tothe study of a bogie and two wheelsets in the quasi-static case. Every wheelset supportsthe load of the quarter of the vehicle. From this model, we can optimize the suspension todefine the mechanical build characteristics of vehicle.
