Construction of Active Steering System of the Scaled Railway Vehicle

초록

Active steering system of railway vehicles is designed to alleviate wheel/rail contact forces and to decrease wheel/rail wear. This paper describes the construction of active steering control system for the curving performance analysis of scaled railway vehicle. 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. Generally scaled railway vehicles were developed to reproduce the fundamental dynamic behavior of the full size railway vehicle in laboratory conditions. The proposed active steering control system is tested in the 1/5 scale research vehicle and R
