Abstract

This Special Issue focuses on the scientific and technological advances related to railway vehicles and their interaction with infrastructure. It highlights multidisciplinary research addressing numerical modeling of dynamic behavior, experimental validation, and innovative approaches that support the design and homologation of modern railway systems. Contributions spanning theoretical, computational, or experimental methods are included, reflecting the growing need for efficient, sustainable, and high-performance rail transport solutions.
