Abstract

The steering type of a mechanical guidance system has been used for Automated Guideway Transit (AGT) system in Japan. Receutly, the single-axle bogie system has developed for aGT vehicle and applied to Yurikamome 7200 series. This paper describes dynamic characteristic of AGT vehicle with single-axle bogie system and steering system. By using 13 degree-of-freedom dynamic models, a computer simulation about earthquake is carried out. The result obtained from the computer simulation show that steering system cause increase in lateral acceleration and single-axle bogie system cause increase in guide-wheel force.
