ON THE EFFECTS CAUSED BY THE SHOCK DURING RAILWAY VEHICLE BUFFING

Journal Title: ROMANIAN JOURNAL OF TECHNICAL SCIENCES - APPLIED MECHANICS - Year 2011, Vol 56, Issue 2

Abstract

A theory of shock caused by the buffing of railway vehicles is presented. It considers kinematic parameters and forces as response of the mechanical system caused by the vehicles that are effectively taking part in the buffing.
