Abstract

This paper describes a crashworthy design for the front structure of KHST (Korean High Speed Train) under the SNCF accident scenario (collision against a movable rigid mass of IS tons at 110 km/h). The front structure designed in a new concept shows good behaviours in crashworthy point of view. It collapses in a progressive and well-controlled fashion. To evaluate the design by considering real situations, the power-car is simulated for accidents collided against a dump truck of 15 tons at 110 km/h. The front end structure of it shows a good response on crashworthiness.
