STUDY OF VIBRATION FREQUENCIES UNDER IMPACT CONDITIONS

This paper will present a study of vibration frequency characteristics under impact conditions for a typical friction type draft gears used on railroad freight cars, a comparison of typical instrumentation records showing force-closure clutch action of typical and representative electronic equipment used to measure these vibration forces.
