THE SAFETY AGAINST THE PENDULOUS CAR UPSET

In this paper, the principle and the calculation methods of influence coefficients and danger indices of the pendulous suspension system are described, and the problem of car upset of 381 series pendulous electric cars is examined numerically. It is shown that the pendulum stopper is effective in making the danger index smaller.
