INVESTIGATIONS INTO THE UTILIZATION OF THE WHEEL/RAIL ADHESION OF ELECTRICAL LOCOMOTIVES
Since the adhesion coefficients are of basic importance in the design of railway traction stock, it is intended to bring up to date for bogie locomotives the Curtius & Kniffler characteristic of 1943. The objectives of the basic investigation are: An exact as possible description of the adhesion utilization of the Class 120 three-phase locomotive and comparable vehicles on the basis of experimental studies (experimental wheelsets, statistical procedures); and comparison of the characteristics so found by relating these to the individual design features and checking for possible consequences.
