VIBRATION BEHAVIOUR OF THE MTC EXPERIMENTAL SUBWAY WHEEL

The natural frequencies, mode shapes, and mechanical impedances of a resilient type subway wheel are presented. An impact method which uses Fourier techniques to analyse the vibrations of the wheel is described. Several natural frequencies and mode shapes not previously reported are presented.
