There are four issues, the mechanism and calculation method of curve negotiation, the analysis and assessment of dynamic performance of vehicle, the effect of vehicle parameters on dynamic performance, and the influence of railway parameters on dynamic performance. The promising future development of wheel-rail coupled dynamics theory is analyzed in the research of curve negotiation. The framework and technique matching performance of wheel-rail dynamic interaction on the curved track are put forward for modem railways. In addition, the application of performance matching technique is introduced to the dynamic engineering, in which the wheel load is reduced obviously when the speed of train is raised to 200-250 km/h.展开更多
