Abstract
Recently the LRT (Light Rail Transit) is expected to become high-performance transit system in the new generation. We made 1/5 scale rolling stock test equipment for verifying calculation accuracy. We will introduce this test equipment and the simulation. By rotating roller-rig as an alternative of the rail, this test equipment is the one which simulates running condition of rolling stock in the stationary condition. By orbital motion and rotation on its axis and swing motion of the each rail-ring are controlled together, the advantage of this test equipment is to simulate the curving behavior condition. And, the experimental results and the simulated results is also introduced.
