Articulation joint support shaft: the effect of its flexibility on power car resonant modes (IM-DA-112)

Last updated on 03 December 2013 9:27
The body of Power Car 1 (E-train) on the resonance testing suspension has flexural frequencies of 10.82 Hz laterally and 7.91 Hz vertically with the articulation joint un-pinned. With the articulation joint rigidly pinned and treating the body as a simple uniform bar, the lateral and vertical frequencies would be...
