High-speed railway (HSR) is defined by the International Union of Railways (UIC) as new lines with design speeds above 250 km h 1 and upgraded existing lines with speeds of up to 200 km h 1 [1]. In China, HSR is defined as new passenger-dedicated lines designed for electric multiple unit (EMU) trains running at a speed of 250 km h 1 or above (actual or reserved), with an initial operation speed not lower than 200 km h 1 [2]. The worldwide development of HSRs and high-speed EMUs can be roughly divided into three stages: initial operation, line platform expansion, and rapid development.
