MOVEMENT ANALYSIS OF COOPERATING RAILWAY BUFFER HEADS
Journal Title: Archives of Transport - Year 2015, Vol 33, Issue 1
Abstract
The paper presents movement analysis of railway buffer heads. The analysis was based on recorded video of cooperating railway buffers during operation. In this paper is presented displacement of operating railway buffer heads in horizontal and vertical plane. Furthermore in paper is specified buffer stroke during operation with maximum speed of 40 km/h. Relating these values to the static characteristic of analyzed buffer it was possible to determine the values of longitudinal forces acting on buffer under determined conditions.<br/><br/>
