Abstract
The work described here is done in the context of the Work Package 7 of PIVOT-2. (Issued by Shift2Rail project).The main objective of this WP7 is to provide a major contribution on virtual testing, with the aim of improving the approval process of the dynamic behaviour of railway vehicles, which is currently given by EN14363:2016+A1:2018. The work began in October 2019 and a first deliverable has been provided in December 2020. Work has been concentrated on: (1) Worldwide benchmark on practices to assess vehicle dynamic validation; (2) Investigations on methods of building and validating a vehicle model; and (3) Propositions and recommendations about using simulations for the acceptance of running characteristics of railway vehicles.
