Vibration Criteria for HSR Bridges and Train Vehicles in China

In this chapter, the vibration criteria for HSR bridges and train vehicles in China are summarized, including the structural safety and durability of bridge and the stability of track due to vibration, the running safety of high-speed train due to bridge and train vibrations, and the riding comfort of passengers on running trains. The conditions unnecessary to conduct coupling dynamic analysis of train-bridge system are introduced.
