A static test for a CTRL-DS vehicle is described in this paper. We needed to carry out the static test according to the UK Railway Group Standard (RGS) to ensure the vehicle would operate safely before an on-track test. A new vehicle for the UK, the CTRL-DS, has been developed and we carried out a wheel-unloading and a sway test. The results from the wheel-unloading test revealed that the maximum wheel-unloading ratio was within the criteria specified in RGS. We compared the test and calculated results for the wheel-unloading and sway tests. We found that the calculated results agreed well with the test results and a calculation model could express the vehicle response for the static test. We thus concluded the CTRL-DS vehicle complied with the static test in RGS and the CTRL-DS vehicle was accepted in regard to the static test.
