Application of cutting-edge technology to
Static Strength and Dynamic Durability of
High-Speed Rail Vehicle Bogies
Background
The bogie is the main supporting structure of a rail vehicle and carries the wheelsets, drives, motors, and suspension systems. It transfers the weight of the vehicle and its payload to the rails. Bogies are critical to the ride safety and comfort of rail vehicles to ensure safe and reliable rail operations. Reliable prediction of the structural strength of the bogie frame of rail vehicles under complex operating conditions is one of the essential prerequisites for safe and economical vehicle operation over the entire service life.
Do you feel ready to collaborate on this exciting topic, please contact us!
Tasks
- Perform project specific linear and non-linear structural calculations
- Develop and validate FEM simulation models for the fatigue analysis of bogie frame
- Support of our project team and work on complex rail vehicle components
- Student research project is possible, but optional
Your Profile
- Good knowledge of structural mechanics and dynamics
- Programming skills (MATLAB, Python)
- Experience with Hypermesh is an advantage

Student Master Thesis
Application of cutting-edge technology to
Simulation of High-Speed Rail Vehicles using Multi-Physics
Background
In the development of today’s high-speed trains, new materials and techniques are increasingly being
used to make the structure lighter, cost efficient, and at the same time more robust. This requires a
detailed analysis of the loads that occur during operation. Increasingly, methods are being used that
go beyond a classic structural mechanics analysis. Therefore, coupled simulations that analyze the
interaction of the wheel-rail system and highly accurate vortex dominated aerodynamic effects are
included in the design.
