Simulation of Energy Absorption Performance of the Couplers in Urban Railway Vehicles during a Heavy Collision
Railway vehicles are generally operated by connecting several vehicles in a row. Mechanisms connecting railway vehicles must also absorb front and rear shock loads that occur during a train’s operation. To minimize damage, rail car couplers are equipped with a buffer system that absorbs the impact o...
