STUDY OF A VIBRATION TABLE FOR TESTING PACKING MATERIALS TO BE USED IN THE TRANSPORT OF GOODS IN RAILWAY WAGONS. OSCILLATIONS WHICH ARISE DURING TRANSPORT IN RAILWAY WAGONS

Accelerations due to oscillations provide characteristic values of the conditions to which goods are exposed on moving railway wagons. The values of the accelerations are influenced by the design and construction of the vehicle, as well as its state of loading, also by the speed and the condition of the track. In order to provide some data of a general nature, representative values were obtained from the evaluation of comprehensive measurements.
