The theory and practice of railway vehicle testing in the laboratory Part 2 - Medium and heavily damped systems (TM-DOS-93)

The resonance testing of fully fitted Railway Vehicles, under controlled conditions, at the R.T.C. has only recently been done. Previous to 1977 vehicles were usually stripped of all dampers to enforce lightly damped vehicle responses. The reason for this was because Kennedy-Pancu techniques alone were used in a very crude...
