Abstract

This paper describes an experimental active stability system for a high speed railway vehicle. Two models are developed in the study: one for control system design and one for control system performance assessment. A number of possible control schemes are described, these include single axle control schemes and modal control schemes. Results both from comprehensive simulations and for the stability controller functioning on an experimental vehicle during a testing phase are presented.
