Authors describe formation mechanism of long irregularities of the railway track and the importance of their elimination for the track facilities. Based on the results of freight train operation modeling on long irregularities in the traction mode, an analysis of the processes occurring during the motion of heavy trains along a track with such deviations was carried out, modeling was carried out on the basis of the “Universal Mechanism” software package. Based on the results of the calculation, interaction between the track and the rolling stock in the vertical plane was assessed in terms of the magnitude of the vertical force and coeffcients: dynamics, stability margin, Nadal, unloading (in percent) of axle springs of freight car springs. Article analizes the nature of the infuence of the irregularity slope on the decrease in the vertical force transmitted from the wheel to the rail and the change in the traction force on the dynamics of freight cars in the train and passing on long irregularities of the longitudinal profle through the indicators of the vertical force.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
