Abstract: Disclosed is a railway vehicle with a car and a bogie. The bogie includes a chassis and a secondary suspension system. The secondary suspension system includes a jack and a power supply device of the jack fluidly connected to the jack by at least one flow limiter. The jack is configured to go from a first so-called passive configuration, in which the supply device is inactive, the jack then being able to passively damp the oscillations between the car and the chassis using the flow limiter, to a second so-called active configuration in which the supply device is configured to supply the jack in order to modify the distance between the car and the chassis or in order to keep the distance constant between the car and the chassis.

Abstract: The invention concerns a method for determining the location of a railway vehicle comprising a first navigation module determining a regular resolution position of the railway vehicle with a first accuracy measurement and a second navigation module determining a high resolution position of the railway vehicle with a second accuracy measurement, using the received signals. The method comprises the steps of determining a first confidence area around the regular resolution position, based on the first accuracy measurement, of determining a second confidence area around the high precision position, based on the second accuracy measurement, and of assigning a weight of confidence to the knowing of the actual location of the railway vehicle, by analyzing the overlay of the first and the second confidence areas and the first and the second accuracy measurements.

Abstract: A railway vehicle includes two adjacent carriages (6), each including a carriage body (8), each carriage (6) including a lower floor (54) and an upper floor (56), positioned above each other so as to define a lower level (58) and an upper level (60), the bodies (8) being supported by a common bogie (1) and being articulated with each other through an articulation device (2). The carriages (6) are connected to each other through an interconnection passage (62), the passage (62) extending substantially at right angles to the articulation device (2) and including a lower floor connecting the lower floors (54) of both carriages (6) and an upper floor connecting the upper floors (56) of both carriages.

Abstract: A device for fastening a table top to a side wall of a vehicle includes: a structure for fastening to the side wall, and a support structure of the plate. The support structure includes: at least one crosspiece extending along a transverse direction, and at least two beams each extending in a longitudinal direction substantially orthogonal to the transverse direction, with the crosspiece being connected to each of the beams. The support structure includes bending onset zones configured to deform plastically when a force greater than or equal to a predetermined threshold force is applied on the support structure along the transverse direction.
