Abstract

Railway traction vehicIes moving along tracks go through excited vertical and pitching vibrations due to the vertical unevennesses in the permanent way. These vibrations give rise to axle-load variations, and dynamic loads in each element of the drive system are created by the variations in the creep- and axle-load-dependent tractive effort transmitted through wheel-rail connections. The dynamic loads can be correctly described by the examination of an integrated "track - vehicle - drive-system" model. This paper deals with the dynamic analysis of the load-processes developing ill the drive system. The analysis is based upon the results of digital simulation.
