Railway transport faces the challenges not only to ensure uninterrupted transportation of national economic goods, but also to develop new locomotives and increase the efficiency of their use. In particular, the currently accepted mode of starting diesel locomotives of the UzTE16M type leads to additional consumption of fuel resources, therefore, research on the development and improvement of the conditions for starting diesel locomotives of this type is relevant. Based on the study of previous studies and designs of various systems in order to facilitate the start of diesel locomotives with electric transmission, it is necessary to establish the available reserves of the power circuit and control circuits. The article considers a mathematical model of torsional oscillations in a diesel generator start-up system with two concentrated mass moments of inertia. Torsional oscillations between the traction generator and the crankshaft of diesel locomotives of the UzTE16M type have not been previously considered. In this article, the problem of torsional oscillations of the reduced masses of the armature of the traction generator and diesel engine in the mode of starting the DG from the battery and additional devices is solved. The Lagrange method has derived a system of mass oscillation equations based on generalized coordinates of elastic oscillations between the masses of the armature of a traction generator and a diesel engine with a variable mass moment of inertia. For the resulting system of equations, the solution is performed by the method of operational calculus, taking into account the accepted functions of mass moments of inertia, moments of driving forces and resistances. Conclusions are drawn that the operation of the diesel starting system on diesel locomotives of the UzTE16M type is determined by the functions of the reduced mass moment of inertia of the diesel, the driving torque and the angular velocity function; the resulting solution makes it possible to calculate the driving torque and the range of angular velocity changes when starting the diesel generator set of UzTE16M locomotives for further comparison with experimental data; when using the recommended electric scheme for starting a diesel locomotive, an increase in the driving torque of the diesel crankshaft and the angular acceleration speed of the traction generator armature is achieved. Based on the developed model, it is recommended to determine the angular velocity of the diesel crankshaft.

The subject of the study is the process of applying optical technologies for non-contact measurements of geometric parameters of a wagon wheelset during operation and repair. The purpose of the study is to study the methods of field testing of technologies for controlling the geometric parameters of car parts using an optical rangefinder, with mutual verification of the results obtained using numerical modeling using three-dimensional digital models of objects and measuring instruments. As a result of the study, experimental and calculated dependences of the optical sensor readings were obtained during the change in the relative position of the measuring object (wheelset) and the rangefinder. Two laser triangulation rangefinders were used for field tests. For numerical simulation, a program was created that allows generating a three-dimensional model of the rolling surface of a wheelset consisting of a set of points belonging to the surface of rotation. The simulation consists in finding the intersection points of a line defined using the coordinates of the point of the radiation source in space and the guiding vector with the model of the skating surface. After the calculations, the result is given in the form of a table with calculated ranges and visualized as projections of a three-dimensional wire model of a wheel and a rangefinder beam. Visualization of the numerical modeling process is important to avoid misinterpretation of the calculation results and to verify compliance with the physical meaning of the numerical data obtained during modeling. Comparison of graphs shows the convergence of the results and sufficient accuracy of numerical models and techniques that can be used in the future to plan full-scale tests of the designed techniques and equipment for dimensional control of railway car parts.

The article presents the results of modeling the force fields in the elements of the wheel-motor unit of the electric locomotive 2ES10. The mathematical model is obtained on the basis of the Lagrange equations of the ΙΙ kind. A design scheme for the study of the dynamic behavior of the wheel-motor unit is presented. Expressions for the deflection of the elastic elements of the traction motor suspension, elastic and dissipative forces are given. A method for determining the vector force field at the articulation site of the bracket and thrust suspension TEM is proposed.

The article considers the processes of current collection in the system of AC electric traction in high-speed traffic. The existing devices of pantograph and catenary interacting by means of a sliding electrical contact are presented. The comparison of solutions with different horizontal geometry of the contact wire, which affects the speed of the lateral displacement of the contact wire at the catenary supports relative to the axis of the railway track, is given. It is shown that the speed at which the contact point moves along the pantograph strip is also important for assessing the wear of the sliding contact, as is the span length of the catenary supports, the curvature of the track and the speed of the train in the span limits. For the synthesis and analysis of the pair "pantograph strip - contact wire" with a sliding contact, a model for calculating the contact surface is obtained and the energy processes leading to wear of the components of the current collection system are considered. The results of modeling the interaction of the pantograph and the catenary with various variants of the zigzag arrangement of the contact wire are obtained. When implementing a technical solution in areas with high-speed traffic, the preferred method proposed in the article is the arrangement of the contact wire of a chain suspension with a zigzag period increased by two times compared to the traditional one. This solution provides a reduction in the speed of lateral displacement and increases the dynamic stability of the pantograph, reduces the cyclic load on the supporting and supporting structures of the catenary and increases the life of the contacting elements of the current collection system during high-speed traffic.
