During the last decades completely new technologies for high speed
railway vehicles have been developed. The primary goals have been
to increase traction, axle load, and travelling speed, and to
guarantee the safety of the passengers. However, new developments
have revealed new limitations: settlement and destruction of the
ballast and the subgrade lead to deterioration of the track;
irregular wear of the wheels causes an increase in overall load and
deterioration in passenger comfort; and damage of the running
surfaces of the rail and the wheel is becoming more frequent. These
problems have been investigated in the Priority Programme SPP 1015
supported by the Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft (DFG), with the
goal of better understanding of the dynamic interaction of vehicle
and track, and the long-term behavior of the components of the
system. The book contains the scientific results of the programme
as presented at the concluding colloquium held at University of
Stuttgart, Germany, 2002.
