MASSGEBENDE GEOMETRISCHE AUSBILDUNG VON EISENBAHNGLEISBOGEN FÜR HÖHERE GESCHWINDIGKEITEN UND BEI DER ENTWICKLUNG VON EISENBAHNWEICHEN

Abstract

As railway traffik is a forced trajectory movement, the movement determined track is the basic requirement. i.e. in the track - vehicle system the track is the primary influential factor of the movement. The kinematically well designed track decreases the quantity of rising stresses and advantageously influences the physical and physiological characteristics of railway traffic. Making our regular and higher speed railway tracks suitable for the present re- quirements, for the future demands requires first of all right kinematical design of the track. The paper highlights the importance of high-speed tracks geometry and of up-to- date turnout geometry.
