This document sets out a framework to replace and/or complement physical tests with virtual tests by introducing simulation credibility for a given railway application. This covers simulation development, use, and management. Users of this document can be: - simulation engineers or organizations and their subcontractors, - standardization working groups to introduce simulations in their standards or - technical assessors and conformity assessment bodies. This document provides guidance, particularly when simulations are not yet defined. Where applicable, this document can be used in conjunction with existing standards pertaining to the use of simulations. If simulation is already recognized in existing domain-specific standards, this document does not modify the requirements of those standards. However, it may assist in future improvements and harmonization. It does not provide domain-specific guidance on applying simulations. For the use of technologies including, but not limited to, artificial intelligence, model-scale testing, and distributed computing, relevant potential technology based risks can arise.

This document defines the assessment of endurable longitudinal compressive force (LCF) of a vehicle. The endurable longitudinal compressive force is a parameter depending on the vehicle design. It is used to estimate the risk of derailment of a vehicle as a result of being subjected to longitudinal compressive force, under operating conditions. NOTE 1 As operating conditions can vary in several aspects (infrastructure, train configurations etc.), this document defines uniform assessments of endurable longitudinal compressive force per vehicle in specific operating conditions. The main assessment of endurable longitudinal compressive force for conventional trains is derived from UIC 530-2:2011, which is based on practical tests performed in ERRI-B12. Assessments of endurable longitudinal compressive force for high-capacity trains in this document are required by the methodology of IRS 40421. IRS 40421 assesses operational train parameters. This document applies to the following types of vehicles: - single wagons; - permanently coupled units with standard ends between the vehicles; - permanently coupled units with diagonal buffers and screw couplers between the vehicles; - permanently coupled units with a bar coupler between the vehicles; - articulated units with 2-axle bogies; - wagons with 3-axle bogies; - low-floor wagons with eight or more axles (e.g. rolling road wagon); - vehicles with centre couplers; - railbound construction and maintenance machines as defined in EN 14033-1:2017. NOTE 2 This document defines the acceptance process to be followed by vehicles that are operated in a way that high longitudinal compressive force occur in the trains due to their operational environment (e.g. train composition, brake mode, track layout). The following vehicles are not in the scope of this document: - locomotives and passenger rolling stocks; - vehicles that are only operated in passenger trains. NOTE 3 Locomotives, passenger rolling stocks and vehicles operated in passenger trains only are not in the scope of this document as they either are subject to low longitudinal compressive force in operation or have sufficient endurable longitudinal compressive force due to their axle load. Acceptance criteria and test conditions as well as conditions for simulation are defined in this document. Conditions for dispensation of the assessment of the endurable longitudinal compressive force are also defined in this document. This document applies principally to vehicles which operate without restrictions on tracks with a gauge of 1 435 mm in Europe. NOTE 4 The influence on railway systems using other gauges is not sufficiently understood to extend the scope of this document to gauges other than 1 435 mm. NOTE 5 For wagons with centre couplers, a need for assessment of derailment risk due to Longitudinal Forces on other gauges (1 524 mm, 1 600 mm, 1 668 mm) has been expressed. The influence on railway systems using other gauges is not sufficiently understood. This document only introduces some notions to assess it independently from the gauge.

In general terms, Miner’s rule is a common approach to calculate how the accumulation of a specific load that varies over time effects the time until failure. This international standard specifies the application of Miner’s rule for calculating the design time until failure of plastics pipes and piping systems of plastics materials under varying, but known, load conditions. Miner’s rule can also be applied reciprocally to calculate the tolerable load levels along a desired design time. This international standard specifies particularly the application of Miner’s rule to calculate stress or pressure regimes, respectively, that are tolerable during a targeted design time for plastics or composite pipes. Further, the application of Miner’s rule on the effect of accumulated damage on polyolefins caused by oxidative attack under varying temperatures and times on the design life is specified. It is necessary to apply Miner's rule to each failure mechanism separately. Thus, for mechanical failure due to internal pressure, other failure mechanisms, such as oxidative or dehydrochlorinative degradative failure mechanisms, are to be neglected (assuming, of course, no interaction). A material may be used only when it is proven to conform to all failure mechanism criteria. NOTE Miner's rule is an empirically based procedure and is only a first approximation to reality.

This document is applicable to lakes, which are water bodies occupying one or more basins with surface areas typically greater than 1 ha (0,01 km2) and maximum depths (at mean water level) greater than 1 m. All types of permanent and temporary lakes, including natural, modified and artificial, freshwater and brackish, except for those systems which regularly connect to the sea, are included in this document. Based on these criteria, it can be estimated that there are at least 500 000 natural lakes across Europe, most of which are located in the glaciated landscapes in northern and western provinces and in Scandinavia. Lakeland districts also occur locally in areas such as large river catchments (e.g. the Danubian plain) and around the Alps. Elsewhere, naturally occurring lakes are relatively sparse and in such areas reservoirs or pits are more common. This document is designed to: a) support environmental and conservation agencies in meeting the monitoring requirements of the WFD (Article 8, Annex II and Annex V); b) generate data sets appropriate for monitoring and reporting of Natura 2000 sites designated under the Habitats Directive and the Birds Directive; c) provide information supporting other environmental reporting requirements (e.g. in relation to biodiversity or environmental impact assessment); d) support lake management and restoration initiatives. This document: e) defines the key term of ‘hydromorphology’ and other terms relating to the morphological characteristics of lakes and their hydrological regimes; f) details essential features and processes of lakes that should be characterized as part of a hydromorphological survey and for determining the hydromorphological condition of a lake; g) identifies and defines the key pressures affecting European lakes; h) provides guidance on strategies for collecting hydromorphological data depending on resources available and the anticipated use of the assessment; a hierarchy of approaches is recognized from the ‘overview method’ utilizing existing databases, maps and remote sensing data through to recognized field-based survey techniques such as Lake Habitat Survey (LHS) [3]; i) offers guidance on data presentation; j) establishes guidance on data quality assurance issues. This document does not deal with biological assessments in lakes such as the presence or absence of individual species or community composition, nor does it attempt to link specific hydromorphological features with their associated biological communities or to create a classification based on such links. However, it is relevant where plants or other organisms form significant structural elements of the habitat (e.g. a gradation from riparian to littoral vegetation). With respect to the WFD, the hydromorphological condition of a lake only contributes to its status classification at high ecological status (HES). Hydromorphological conditions are not defined for good and moderate status but shall be sufficient to support the biological elements. However, some countries are now beginning to classify lakes according to their hydromorphology. The information gathered by using this standard can provide a basis for classification, but this classification is the subject of EN 16870 and not EN 16039.

This document specifies design criteria for heating and cooling systems in buildings using electrically driven heat pumps for heating and cooling alone or in combination with other heat generators. The heat pump systems considered in this document (source system/sink system) are listed in Table 1. For cooling purposes, energy source and energy sink can be reversed. This document also applies to other energy sources such as wastewater, massive absorbers, ice storage systems, as well as heat pump systems using more than one energy source. This document takes into account the heating requirements of attached systems (e.g. domestic hot water) in the design of the heat supply but does not cover the design of these systems. This document covers the aspects dealing with the heat pump, the interface with the heat distribution system and heat emission system, the control of the whole system and the aspects dealing with energy source of the system. Design criteria for reversible heat pump systems for heating and cooling are also included in this document. Table 1 - Heat pump systems used for heating (within the scope)

ISO/IEC 25063:2014 describes the Common Industry Format (CIF) for context of use descriptions and specifies the contents of both high-level and detailed descriptions of the context of use for an existing, intended, implemented or deployed system. A context-of-use description includes information about the users and other stakeholder groups, the characteristics of each user group, the goals of the users, the tasks of the users, and the environment(s) in which the system is used. The context of use description is applicable to software and hardware systems, products or services (excluding generic products, such as a display screen or keyboard). It is important to gather and analyse information on the current context in order to understand and then describe the context that will apply in the future system. The context of use description provides a collection of data relevant for analysis, specification, design and evaluation of an interactive system from the perspective of the various user groups and other stakeholders.
