With the rapid development of high-speed railway in China, the aerodynamic brake is very likely to be an important emergency braking mode of high-speed train in the future. This paper takes aerodynamic braking wing as the object, and uses the finite element software to divide the meshes, then analyses the model influenced by static stress. After simulating the vibratory frequency response of the model in the flow field, it finds that the largest deformation happens in the middle of the upper edge of the wind wing, when the wind speed gets to 500km/h and the load frequency to 4Hz. Some conclusions of this thesis can provide reference for researching the applying the aerodynamic brake in the high-speed trains and laying the foundation for solving the riding and braking safety problems.

One of the most important conditions necessary for high-speed railway traffic is a clear reduction of the unsprung masses. The fact that even with light-weight wheelsets, the steel tires still constitute over 50 percent of the total weight, shows that it is here, by utilizing the lightweight materials, that the most promising possibility of weight reduction lies. For this reason, the frictional and wear behaviour of various titanium alloys was investigated and compared with that of normal steels. From the positive results, it would appear worthwhile carrying out further investigations under practical conditions as an adequate assessment cannot be obtained on the basis of the laboratory tests alone.
