Abstract

The steering type of a mechanical guidance system has been used for Automated Guideway Transit (AGT) system in Japan. Recently, the single-axle bogie system has developed for AGT vehicle and applied to Yurikamome 7200 series. This paper describes dynamic characteristics of AGT vehicle with single-axle bogie system under earthquake. By using 13 degree-of-freeedom dynamics models and multibody dynamics models, a computer simulation in case of earthquake is carried out. By the result obtained from computer simulation, characteristics of the AGT vehicle in case of an earthquake was clarified.
