The plan is built on nine key principles, one of which involves optimizing logistical routes towards the European Union. One of the main tasks facing Ukraine in the post-war period is elevating economic interaction with the European Union to a new level through the implementation of European rail standards on Ukrainian territory. The research in the scientific and research work is based on the use of progressive innovative technologies for the implementation of high-speed train travel on the railway network of Ukraine according to European standards. The obtained results will provide a scientific foundation for the creation and further development of a modern national high-speed passenger transportation system. The developed methodologies will be used to theoretically justify permissible train speeds while simultaneously ensuring criteria for the strength, stability, and reliability of railway track and rolling stock elements, as well as the implementation of modern technologies for the reconstruction of existing railways to enable high-speed train travel. The results obtained during the project will be utilized for the preparation of a doctoral thesis and four master's theses, publication of 5 scientific articles in domestic and international journals, as well as in 6 abstracts for international conferences. popup.description2 A systematic analysis of the development of the high-speed railway network in Europe was conducted, the main problems of the integration of Ukrainian railway transport were identified, and the current technical condition of the network was assessed taking into account the consequences of military operations. Priority projects for the construction of a new and reconstruction of the existing track to the 1435 mm standard were considered. The proposed methodology involves combining point adaptation of the existing track plan (increasing the elevation of the outer rail, curve radii, lengthening of transition curves) with the construction of high-speed railways, which allows achieving speeds of 200-250 km/h with minimal investment Product Description popup.authors Mykola B.
