rolling stock

Experimental determination of lateral sway of a pneumatic spring when passing through a railroad switch in conditions of provision of high-speed trains` safety

The operation of railway rolling stock under high-speed conditions is crucial for Ukraine, as it will increase the throughput and carrying capacity of the railway network and improve the mobility of people in large cities. The dynamic behavior of the pneumatic spring, as the main structural element of the suspension system of high-speed rolling stock, has been studied. It is noted that the issue of the dynamic performance of the pneumatic spring is of broad scientific interest, as it directly affects the dynamic indicators and safety of the rolling stock when interacting with the track.
