LAUNCHING MOTION OF A PASSENGER CAR GROUP

DER ABLAUF EINER WAGENGRUPPE

By solving the d'Alembert basic equation, the speed and distance traveled is determined as a function of time. In the calculations the total mass of the train is assumed to be concentrated in the center of gravity. Allowance is made for a continous load distribution. The influence on acceleration, speed and traveling time is shown. The derivations apply to the motion characteristics of one coach group.
