Assessment of the impact on the railway track of a special purpose passenger car model 61-934

Abstract

In this work, theoretical studies have been carried out in order to assess the strength of structural elements of the track superstructure from the impact of a special-purpose passenger carriage. The assessment of the impact of the wagon on the railway track was carried out according to the stresses in the edges of the rail base, stresses in the main area of the subgrade and the stability of the track against lateral shear. The calculations showed that the strength and stability of the structural elements of the track superstructure as a result of the impact on it of a special-purpose passenger carriage model 61-934 meets the regulatory requirements.
