During the meeting on 9/16/15, team members from fail safe team gathered around and share their ideas. Considering the fact that the design of the bogie be similar to existing bogie, we all came to an agreement that, addition of the upstop wheel (3rd wheel) is very logical, since the wheel will stabilize the bogie and will keel the bogie from falling. Next, the team is focused on other fail safe mechanisms. One of the main goal of this week is to come up with a failing scenarios under any circumstances. On 9/23, the team will be discussing on how reasonable is that scenario and hopefully come up with a solution.
Lastly, I have read chapter 6 of Safety and Emergency Operations of the Fundamentals of Rapid Transit. This chapter gave me an idea of possible failing scenarios and a way to solve it. On our next meeting, we will be comparing the list of the failing scenarios and come up with a possible solutions.
