English abstract:
A new approach for the identification of system dynamics of rail vehicles using Hammerstein models which include
static non-linear characteristics of track geometry and linear system dynamics is presented. Additionally, an
appropriate process based on determining reference tracks for light-rail from measured data is illustrated. Hence,
known non-linearity at mechanical modeling can be taken into account whereas system dynamics can be still analyzed
by linear techniques. The models are capable of predicting the vehicle response independent of travelling
speed. Thus, the effects of track geometry failures, irregularities and speed are simulated and analyzed.
