What is Optimizing Cant Deficiency for Speed about?
The document discusses increasing the permissible cant deficiency on Indian Railways curves to optimize speed potential. Currently, cant deficiency is restricted to 75mm or 100mm depending on the route to accommodate mixed traffic of passenger and freight trains. Increasing cant deficiency to 100mm would allow speeds on curves to increase by 6-8% by permitting higher lateral acceleration of up to 1.5m/s^2. Studies have assessed the effects of higher cant deficiency on rail stresses, lateral loads, stability
