This study investigates the content of the research on the
standard for technical specification of Metro Vehicles for
rapidtransit systems. The EMU in Kaohsiung and Taipei rapid
transitsystems are introduced first. Second, topics which must
be decided in the early stage of planning are discussed, such as
methods to form a train, evacuation of passengers on train, and
methods of power collection. Then, subsystems of metro vehicles
are included. They include carbody and fixture, brakes system,
heating ventilation and air conditioning, door system, bogie and
suspension system, coupler and draft gear and lighting system.
At the end find, interfaces between metro vehicles and signal
installations, power supply system, communication system, depot
equipment, civil structure and fixed facilities and track system
are specified.
