A Study on the Dynamic Characteristics of Railway Rolling Stock Applied Air Aprings

공기스프링 적용 철도차량의 동적 특성에 관한 연구

Air spring for railway rolling-stock is a part of secondary suspension system which play the role of supporting load, damping vibration. Recently, air springs are actively applied to railway rolling-stock to substitute coil spring with upgrading the manufacturing skill. This study is started to get the fundamental datum related to air spring for the purpose of developing the test draft for air spring. To analyze the performance of air spring, we conducted the simulation for railway rolling-stock applied air spring and tested train in convention lines. Thus, we have obtained useful datum to develop the test draft for air spring. Here, we describe some results.
