Evaluation of the Aerodynamic Effect of a Smooth Rounded Roof on Crosswind Stability of a Train by Wind Tunnel Tests

The advent of high-speed trains led to new issues and constraints for railway network manufacturers and operators. This is the case of crosswind effect, that occurs when train is running in strong wind conditions. The combination of train speed and wind speed generates a relative flow that affects t...
