ABSTRACT
The paper evaluates the effectiveness of the electromechanical shock absorber for a subway car based on dynamic quality indicators. To determine them, a method of synthesis
of random forced vertical oscillations of a dynamic model of a subway car was developed,
which is based on the method of sliding summation taking into account the spectral density
obtained when processing the test results of a subway car. Also in the work the technique on
definition of indicators of dynamic quality of the metrocar with electromechanical shockabsorbers which is based on modeling of processes of movement of the subway car on a site
of a way with casual roughness and definition, by results of modeling, indicators of dynamic
quality is created. The study of forced random oscillations of the dynamic model of a
subway car showed that the spring suspension based on electromechanical shock absorbers
has a significant advantage over the central spring suspension for all quality indicators in
the entire range of speeds. The dependence of the average power generated by the shock
absorber is established.
