Long nosed head car for reduction of micro-pressure waves in tunnels. The head car design is based on that of the experimental high-speed train FASTECH 360S’s “arrow line”.The fifteen-meter-nosed car reduces micro-pressure waves that occur at one side of a tunnel when the train is entering the tunnel opposite end.

Full bogie covers and sound absorbing panels reduce noise. To suppress noise emitting from the lower (bogie) part of the train, that area has been completely covered, while the smoothing of car body side reduce aerodynamic noise.To minimize noise levels, sound-absorbing materials have been used where possible.

Higher-performance brake technology.With improving the performance of the brake system, Series E5 train can achieve an emergency braking distance equivalent to that of a previous railcar (275km/h) from its maximum running speed of 320km/h. When the emergency brake at the earthquake is operated, employing a ceramic jet device improves adhesion between rails and wheels.

A titling system improves ride quality on curves. All cars are equipped with a titling system to system to improve ride quality on curves. Titling the car body with air spring to counteract centrifugal force improves ride quality and train speed when negotiating curves. With this system, trains can navigate curves of 4,000m in radius at speeds 320km/h.

Full-active suspension system suppresses car body lateral vibration.Series E5 utilizes electric actuators with heightened responsiveness and output.All cars are equipped with full-active suspension systems, in order to improve ride quality.

“Early Earthquake Detection System”

Two trains running at approx. 270km/h (170mph) through the Sendai area were exposed to strong shaking from the earthquake.

The power supply to these train was cut 9 to 12 seconds before the first vibrations arrived, and their emergency brakes were applied.

The largest vibration came to these trains approx. 70 seconds after their emergency brakes were applied. By then, it is supposed that the trains had reached a speed of about 100km/h (63mph)
