EXPERIMENTAL RESEARCH ON RUNNING GEAR WITH INDEPENDENTLY MOUNTED RADIAL WHEELS FOR RAILWAY VEHICLES

EXPERIMENTELLE UNTERSUCHUNGEN AND LAUFWERKEN MIT LENKBAR GEKOPPELTEN EINZELRAEDERN FUER SCHIENENFAHRZEUGE

It would be an advantage to use independently mounted radial wheels for the running gear of railway vehicles for short-distance traffic but no suitable designs are being constructed at present. The authors mention tests carried out on a model running gear, to determine running stability characteristics and the effects of the values of certain decisive parameters.
