For wheel rail formula train, maglev train passes through the electromagnetic force suspension on the track, and the automobile body does not have the contact with the track, does not produce the friction loss, and the operation is maintained simply and is a neotype traffic methods, and compares in the high-speed maglev train that is fit for long distance main line operation, and the economic nature of well low-speed maglev is better, and the construction degree of difficulty is low, and ambient noise is little, especially adapted intercity track traffic. Because the maglev train runs by means of levitation force, the maglev train puts higher requirements on the light weight of the train body compared with a wheel track type train which directly falls to the ground. The optimal design of a vehicle body structure and the application of a novel light material are necessary development directions for vehicle body light weight, but the application of the novel structure and the novel material often brings some new problems of vehicle body rigidity, noise, fire prevention and the like.
The carbon fiber composite material has light weight, high rigidity and high strength, is more and more widely applied to the field of rail transit, can be particularly used on a bearing structure, can obviously reduce the weight of a vehicle body while improving the rigidity of the vehicle body, and has wide application prospect. In the field of rail transit, there are a plurality of patent applications for preparing a car body structure by using a carbon fiber composite material, and patent application CN 105128876B "a carbon fiber composite material car body and a manufacturing method thereof" proposes that the car body is composed of an integrally formed car body and a bottom plate which are prepared by carbon fibers, the car body is composed of an outer skin, a sandwich layer, an inner skin and reinforcing ribs bonded on the inner skin, but the structure does not relate to the noise and fire prevention problems of the car body structure. Patent application CN 206187017U carbon fiber composite vehicle body structure for medium and low speed rail transit provides a carbon fiber composite vehicle body structure composed of a carbon fiber outer skin, a carbon fiber inner skin and a flame-retardant foam core material between the outer skin and the inner skin, and flame-retardant epoxy resin is added in the carbon fiber composite material of the inner skin and the outer skin. Patent CN 208325223U "a structure of low-cost carbon-fibre composite air-iron automobile body" has proposed a carbon-fibre composite air-iron automobile body structure for suspension type, its automobile body side wall and headwall include the strengthening rib skeleton, interior covering and outer covering, it is attached in the strengthening rib skeleton, on the outside surface, pack the core foam piece of pressing from both sides in the net of strengthening rib skeleton, but this automobile body structure does not relate to cab part, and there is the operating mode difference that is showing in the structural style of suspension type air-iron and the automobile body structure that falls on ground, also not specifically relate to structural strength and sound insulation, the comprehensive problem of fire prevention.
Patent application CN 110489907 a "method for optimizing design of digital prototype of vehicle body of rail transit vehicle" gives general steps of vehicle body topology optimization design, which is actually software logic for running topology optimization software itself, and the core key of vehicle body topology optimization design is not in the running logic and general operation steps of tool software, but in the design skill and thought of each specific parameter, which is the core key for obtaining the required structural configuration, and the scheme does not relate to parameter design content, so that it may not actually obtain the required structural configuration. The actual setting of the design space range, the specific constraint conditions and the calculation conditions is the key point and the difficulty of the topology optimization design, and whether the input parameter range is set is reasonable or not directly determines whether the optimization calculation is converged or not and the reliability of the simulation calculation.

At present, the train body with the cab structure prepared from the carbon fiber composite material adopts the hollow integral carbon fiber cab hood, the longitudinal impact force of 800KN cannot be borne at the cab, and the existing carbon fiber train body structure does not achieve coordination and unification in three aspects of structural bearing, sound insulation, noise reduction and fire prevention due to the disadvantages of the carbon fiber composite material in the aspects of sound insulation, noise reduction and fire prevention. In the field of maglev trains, no report on maglev train bodies made of carbon fiber composite materials exists at present.

To meet the vehicle body stiffness requirements, the sandwich layer filled with the carbon fiber sandwich structure is often a high modulus material, such as a PMI foam material.

Compared with a metal material, the fireproof performance of the carbon fiber material is relatively low, and the bonding glue layer of the carbon fiber can cause high-temperature failure at high temperature, so that the fireproof performance of the carbon fiber material is remarkably reduced. According to the invention, 40-50 wt% of inorganic flame retardant is added into the epoxy resin adhesive of the carbon fiber, and water system fireproof damping coatings are sprayed on the inner surface of the car body and the inner and outer surfaces of the underframe panel, so that the fireproof safety performance of the car body structure is further improved.
