Description:

Damages at vehicle bodies required an analysis to qualify the vehicle-runway system. The aim of the analysis is to declare critical effects and show the possible and necessary measurements. The running tests on the vehicle had many objects. Effects of waveform could be seen in the spectral density functions for vehicles running on runway with waved rail wearing. Effects of waveforms were found to be little on the mechanical stresses of vehicle body. The curve of the runway has major effect on the values of the mechanical stresses.
