In order to introduce quantitatively those heterogeneous multiple feature data which are possibly gained by a sensor into the discussion of tracking and association problem, we define a correlation measure which we explain as the generalization of conventional association decision. In conventional Nearest Neighbor method, the decision function can take only two values, 1 or 0, to represent the decision of association or not association. In our method, correlation measure can be take any real value from 0 to 1 to represent the extent of correlation. Considering the practical circumstances that some feature data might not be easily gained continuously, we introduce an effective factor to deal with these cases. In the paper we also discuss the comparative computer simulation tests and give the results.展开更多

Pressure measurements of two typical sections, one train-head section and one train-body section, at the windward and leeward tracks were conducted under the smooth and turbulence flows with wind attack angles between-6° and 6°, and the corresponding aerodynamic force coefficients were also calculated using the integral method. The experimental results indicate that the track position affects the mean aerodynamic characteristics of the vehicle, especially for the train-body section. The fluctuating pressure coefficients at the leeward track are more significantly affected by the bridge interference compared to those at the windward track. The effect of turbulence on the train-head section is less than that on the train-body section. Additionally, the mean aerodynamic force coefficients are almost negatively correlated to wind attack angles, which is more prominent for vehicles at the leeward track. Moreover, the lateral force plays a critical role in determining the corresponding overturning moment, especially on the train-body section.展开更多
