Abstract

Independent wheel railway bogie is one of the railway bogies that have been used wisely in the world. Many researches and developments have been done on independent wheel railway bogie instead of fixed wheel railway bogie. The active steering bogie could provide smoother riding compared with the fixed wheel railway bogie. The project has been introduced to design an independent wheel railway bogie in order to improve the performance during high speed cornering, and provide the stability movement to the railway bogie. CATIA V5R16 is the computer aided design software that is used in the designing step. The reliability of the independent wheel railway bogie is clarified through the result of the safety factor. The safety factor is justified through theoretical and analysis. The static analysis of the independent wheel railway bogie is done by the structural analysis of CATIA by comparing with two materials, steel, and cast iron. The simulation of the railway bogie is performed by using Universal Mechanism software in order to accomplish the project.
