CHARACTERISTICS OF BIAXIAL VEHICLES IN CURVES

BEITRAG ZUM VERHALTEN EINES ZWEIACHSIGEN FAHRZEUGES IM GLEISBOGEN

The study described deals with the problem of unequal friction of front and rear wheel sets acting on the rails, which is a result of the difference in the geometric angles of attack. The conditions are explained under which three possible kinds of free-wheeling may occur. The behavior characteristics of biaxial vehicles are illustrated with the aid of examples.
