RUNNING PERFORMANCE TESTS ON THE CAR BODY VIBRATIONS OF THE 591-PROTOTYPE ELECTRIC CARS

For the purpose of raising running speeds on curves, the 591 prototype electric cars were produced, and various tests were performed on Tohoku line in April 1970. As for riding comfort, it was confirmed that the allowable maximum speeds on curves are determined not by stationary lateral accelerations but by shock vibrations at the entrances of curves.
