Dynamic indicators influencing design solution for modernization of the freight rolling stock

Abstract

Rolling stock directly affects the economic indices of the transport industry and the national economy as a whole, leading to the need to improve control and quantify of the rolling stock dynamic load in order to maintain safe and reliable rail connections. In the process of rolling stock designing and operating, a quantitative assessment of dynamic loads is an urgent scientific and technical problem. The article presents an analysis of theoretical studies of the rolling stock dynamic characteristics on the example of open wagons, flat wagons and hopper wagons. The loading modes influence on the dynamic loading of the wagon has been studied with the aim of solving the problem of predicting the dynamics of rolling stock and indicators of its interaction with the track. The results of theoretical studies are presented taking into account the motion speed along the curved track of short and medium radius.

Development of High-Speed Railway Network in Europe: A Case Study of Ukraine

“…In Ukraine, these issues are currently under research. Their resolution requires consideration of the experience in implementing a range of interconnected issues: methodologies for calculating prospective population mobility, taking into account transit, organizational and technical prerequisites for introducing high-speed rail (Kurhan et al, 2022a;Hubar et al, 2020;Potapov et al, 2023), selection of critical conceptual approaches to infrastructure, power supply systems (Havryliuk, 2020;Havryliuk, 2021;Fischer and Szalai, 2023;Németh and Fischer, 2021;Szalai et al, 2022), rolling stock dimensions, and alignment of structures, control devices, and traffic safety organizations (Shvets, 2023;Sysyn et al, 2021) and so on.…”

Reducing Traction Energy Consumption with a Decrease in the Weight of an All-Metal Gondola Car

“…Rail transport is an important economic sector in the world. To ensure the uninterrupted delivery of goods and people, the proper level of traffic safety and environmental safety [1,2] must be ensured.…”

Predictive model of risks in railroad transport when diagnosing axle boxes of freight wagons

“…Fundamental solutions cannot be efficient without proper ensuring of the operation reliability of the rolling stock and its components under the real operating conditions and during repairs. [1][2][3] The traffic safety analysis in the rolling stock industry of the Ukrainian railroad in recent years points to the need for modernization and improvement of the obsolete and wornout technological equipment for maintenance and repair, which will, first of all, ensure a high level of reliability and, thereby, guarantee the traffic safety increase. 4,5…”
