The aim of the paper is to assess the actual capacity of the corridor lines in Slovakia in terms of the freight transport needs and EU transport policy objectives, based on the analysis of track capacity. The railway track sections of the north-south corridor on the ŽSR network are problematic from the point of view of limited capacity, especially at Štúrovo border station. Part of the research includes measures leading to an increase in the capacity of lines and stations for the needs of transit freight. These measures have to be assessed from an operational and economic point of view. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
This paper aims about the historical and technical evolution of scientific thought in railway vehicle behaviour, while running on straight track and cornering. The point of view of many railway scientists and mechanical approaches are presented and joined to the operational reality, referring from the beginning of railway use, through the idealization in modelling, to be able study the problem of wheel-rail interface.
