  • Abstract
    The paper presented is dedicated to developing an underground train tilting control system acting over the secondary suspension while negotiating curves. The goal is to improve the ride quality while passing curves at relatively high speeds. The system changes the parameters of the secondary suspension depending on the lateral acceleration of the wagon body, running speed and bogie rotation, all measured by means of sensors.
