STRENGTH OF BODIES OF PASSENGER COACHES. COMPLETE CALCULATION OF PASSENGER COACH BODIES (STRESSES, DEFLECTIONS AND NATURAL FREQUENCIES)

A detailed description is given of the complete calculation of passenger coach bodies (stresses, deflections and natural frequencies) using the general theory of redundant frames. A passenger coach chosen as application example permits a comparison to be made between the measured values and the calculation results. In addition, the report gives all the necessary instructions for the use of the calculation programme and the application arrangements.
