Switch and Crossing Optimal Design and Evaluation (S-CODE)
Start date: Nov 1, 2016, End date: Oct 31, 2019,
...ed around new operating concepts (e.g. super-fast switching, self-healing switch). The project will build on existing European and national research projects (in particular, the lighthouse project In2Rail, Capacity4Rail and Innotrack) to bring together technologies and concepts that will significantly reduce the constraints associated with existing switch technologies and develop a radically diffe ...

Development of the Future Rail Freight System to Reduce the Occurrences and Impact of Derailment (D-RAIL)
Start date: Oct 1, 2011, End date: Sep 30, 2014,
D-RAIL will focus on freight traffic, identifying root causes of derailment of particular significance to freight vehicles, which have a wider range of operating parameters (as a result of the huge range in loads, speeds and maintenance quality) than passenger vehicles. One key question that will be studied is how independent minor faults (e.g., a slight track twist and a failing bearing) could co ...

Railway Vehicle Dynamics and Track Interactions Total Regulatory Acceptance for the Interoperable Network (DYNOTRAIN)
Start date: Jun 1, 2009, End date: Sep 30, 2013,
The certification of a rail vehicle according to European regulations, Technical Specifications for Interoperability, European Standards and national safety rules represents a significant element of both vehicle cost and time to market. Indeed, a large part of vehicle certification mandates testing for safety, performance and infrastructure compatibility. The new EN standards together with the CR/ ...

PANTOgraph and catenary interaction Total Regulatory Acceptance for the Interoperable Network (PANTOTRAIN)
Start date: Jun 1, 2009, End date: May 31, 2012,
"The current interoperability approval process for new High Speed and Conventional railway vehicles in Europe is a very long and costly process. The Technical Specifications for Interoperability provide common regulations for the homologation of new rolling stock but do not directly eliminate the current burdens regarding new vehicle approval on each network. In this context, the pantograph/catena ...
