Vertical and lateral stiffness tests on a Paulstra rubber/coil spring (IM-DOS-135)

Last updated on 24 May 2013 3:45

Vertical quasi-static and dynamic stiffness tests, and lateral quasi-static stiffness tests were performed on a Paulstra Rubber/Coil spring. The results of the vertical tests proved close to the desired characteristics of a suspension unit for a four wheeled rail vehicle. The lateral stiffness was very low. As the...
