Measurement of Running Behaviors in Rubber-Tired Urban Railway Vehicle

초록

For the developed Korean-standardized rubber-tired AGT vehicle (K-AGT), various tests and evaluations were performed at the test track constructed to verify its performance and safety. In this paper, the rotation angle of bogie was measured while the K-AGT was operating under driverless mode as changing vehicle weight conditions. The rotation angle of bogie was one of the most important factors to evaluate the stability of the K-AGT, because it can effect on vibrations of bogie and car body, durability of rubber tires and guidance wheel. Based on the results, several requirements for running behaviors were discussed, which can be utilized in the design of the bi-modal tram vehicles.
