Abstract: Abstract The effects of ground configurations on the slipstream and near wake of a high-speed train are numerically investigated with improved delayed detached eddy simulation (IDDES). Both time-averaged and instantaneous near wake structures and the… read more here.

Abstract: The movement of a train creates a disturbance to the air through which it passes, known as a slipstream. Such disturbances are characterised by changes in pressure, notably around the vehicle nose/tail, and a highly… read more here.
