Excerpt from Freight Train Resistance: Its Relation to Average Car Weight
Existing train resistance formulas likewise fail in most cases to take into account these variations of resistance with car weight, and probably much of the divergence among them is properly to be ascribed to this fact.

Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the relationship between the weight of freight cars and the resistance of freight trains on level tracks. It is a collection of experiments conducted by the Railway Engineering Department of the University of Illinois. The author conducted 32 tests on various freight trains with varying loads, speeds, and car types, to determine the impact of car weight on train resistance. This book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in rail transportation and engineering, as it provides a comprehensive analysis of the factors that affect train resistance and offers insights into improving the efficiency of freight train operations. The formulas and data presented in the book can be applied to real-world scenarios to optimize train performance and enhance overall rail operations. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
