DYNAMIC STRESSES ACTING ON THE WINDOW PANES IN PASSENGER CARS OF THE TRAINS MEETING IN TUNNEL

DYNAMISCHE DRUCKBEANSPRUCHUNGEN VON FENSTERSCHEIBEN IN REISEZUGWAGEN BEI ZUGEGEGNUNGEN UND TUNNELDURCHFAHRTEN

An attempt is made to obtain a theoretical estimate of the stresses acting on window panes in passenger trains at high speeds. Pressure and expansion readings were taken on window panes while the train was passing through a tunnel, the results being evaluated during comparative tests under the influence of explosible pressures. The procedure is illustrated for the example of the nose wave.
