This paper is the second part of a two-part paper that presents a wide-ranging review of train
aerodynamics. Part 1 presented a detailed description of the flow field around the train and …

This paper investigates the use of various data assimilation (DA) approaches for the
reconstruction of the unsteady flow past a cylinder in the presence of incident coherent …

The computational models used to assess the crosswind stability of railway vehicles by
multibody simulation (MBS) are affected by large uncertainties. Especially, the aerodynamic …

High winds have a number of different effects on the design and operation of trains, the most
important being the need to design trains that will not blow over in high winds. The current …

Atmospheric wind speeds and their fluctuations at different locations (onshore and offshore)
are examined. One of the most striking features is the marked intermittency of probability …

The problem of cross wind for rail vehicles gained, in the last years, an increasing interest
within the European railway operators, due to the continuous expansion of the high-speed …

Train Aerodynamics: Fundamentals and Applications is the first reference to provide a
comprehensive overview of train aerodynamics with full scale data results. With the most up …

The wind stability of the high-speed train has gained an increasing interest in the last few
years. In this paper, an investigation of the effects of stochastic winds with longitudinal and …

Improved understanding of wind gusts in complex terrain is critically important to wind
engineering and specifically the wind energy industry. Observational data from 3D sonic …

The greatest attention to the UK wind climatology has focused upon mean windspeeds,
despite a knowledge of gust speeds being essential to a variety of users. This paper goes …
