För att svensk järnvägsinfrastruktur skall kunna vara konkurrenskraftig i jämförelse med mindre miljövänliga alternativ krävs kapacitetsutbyggnad och hastighetsökning av det svenska järnvägsnätet. Vid hastigheter över 200 km/h finns krav på att dynamiska analyser behöver utföras. För vissa brotyper, exempelvis samverkansbroar med ändskärmar, är det svårt att påvisa acceptabel vertikal accelerationFor Swedish railway infrastructure to be competitive compared to less environmentally friendly alternatives, capacity expansion and speed increase of the Swedish rail network are required.
