Last updated on 09 December 2013 3:09
The limitation on flexibility in the resilient wheel may be set by the need to avoid vertical resonance at high speeds. This condition is aggravated for the APT because of both high speeds and a small wheel diameter. A further problem with the resilient wheel is probably that of longitudinal...
