Abstract:

New bearings for the overhead railway in Wuppertal - Part 2: Pressure pieces for pointracks bearings

The reconstruction of the overhead railway in Wuppertal was the occasion for extensive testing on circular laminated elastomeric bearings as well as on pressure pieces for point rocker bearings. The most important results of the tests are as follows:
- up to now the restoring moments of laminated elastomeric bearings are considerably underestimated
- the influence of plastic deformation on the restoring moments of steel point rocker bearings is negligible.
The following report describes a part of the conducted tests and the analysis.

Keywords:
modulus of rigidity compression-tension-bearing shear modulus restoring moment tensile stiffness
