This article presents a mathematical model of the risk of failures, depending on the operating
parameters, of locomotive diesel engines. The purpose of this study is to determine the risk …

Rolling stock planning is one of the steps in the traffic planning process considered from the
railway undertaking's point of view. It is directly related to the efficiency of rolling stock …

The paper presented studies on reducing traction energy consumption with a decrease in
the weight of an all-metal gondola car. Based on the proposed mathematical criterion, a new …

For the first time, a theoretical dependence was obtained to determine the filler
concentration of the composite tape. On the basis of this dependence, a composite tape with …

Railway turnouts often develop defects such as chipping, cracks, and wear during use. If not
detected and addressed promptly, these defects can pose significant risks to train operation …

During the operation of freight cars, uneven wear occurs in the central bowl of the rail truck
bolster. This article aims to determine the concentration of the filler of the composite material …

This article presents the results of a study focused on identifying the main causes of the
asymmetric (clinodual) wear of composite brake pads on freight wagons. A new scientific …

The paper presents a new design of the gondola car hatch cover to increase the carrying
capacity. The results of calculations the CAD model of the gondola car hatch cover showed …

In paper has been carried out to develop a load-bearing floor to increase the carrying
capacity of the solid-body rail freight car. An analysis of the structures made it possible to …

To reduce the harmful impact of railway transport on the environment and ensure
environmental safety, railway enterprises develop and implement a wide range of …
