As a city's transportation gateway, the high-speed rail station is also a business card for displaying and disseminating urban culture. The thesis takes the design process of East Nanyang Station, the largest single-line side station building in China as an example, elaborates the design concept of extracting "dragon in the cloud, soaring forward" as the creative design concept, and discusses the station building from three aspects: the overall plan of the station building, spatial form and spatial details cultural design expression.

This paper describes the results of numerical work to determine the flow structures of the slipstream and wake of a high speed train on platforms of underground rail station using three-dimensional compressible Euler equation. The simulations were carried out on a model of a simplified three-coach train and typical cross-section of Chinese high-speed railway tunnel. A number of issues were observed: change process of slipstreams, longitudinal and horizontal distribution characteristics of train wind. Localized velocity peaks were obtained near the nose of the train and in the near wake region. Maximum and minimum velocity values were also noticed near to the nose rear tip. These structures extended for a long distance behind the train in the far wake flow. The slipstream in platform shows the typical three-dimensional characteristics and the velocity is about 4 m/s at 6 m away from the edge of platform.

California has started construction on the first true high-speed rail system in the United States. In this chapter, the CEO of the California High-Speed Rail Authority describes how the state's historic investment in new high-speed rail infrastructure will benefit Californians. Benefits include job creation, statewide modernization of existing local rail lines, short and long-term reductions in greenhouse gas emissions, preservation of agricultural land and environmentally sensitive habitats, advanced clean and green construction practices and technologies, a commitment to 100% renewable energy use, and assistance to partner cities on transit-oriented planning for high-speed rail station areas.
