Dynamic study on safety against the derailment to the six axle locomotives

Abstract

This paper treats the problem of dynamic forces produced by flow curves that there is a "discontinuous bend" mathematically represented as an angle where there is a so-called" shock angle". It is a situation that can occur in curves with seamless lines, the vehicle being applied to a dynamic force shock that may affect traffic safety. An example of calculation was done in the case of a tank wagon in which the center of mass due to high, maybe even toppling under the effect of shock.
