The trend of train coupling failure on Serbian railways in 10 year period
Апстракт
This paper presents an analysis of train coupling failure on the Serbian Railways and
displays a trend of characteristics over 10 year period. The impact of changes in the organization
of exploitation and maintenance and led by the introduction of Entity in Charge of Maintenance
(ECM) and reconstruction of Serbian railway company into 3 separate entities as well as some
differences and aging in rolling stock induce certain changes in the parameters of train coupling
failure. The analysis is done based on parameters of train configuration and driving specifications.
Only freight trains with single traction locomotives are considered. The distribution of coupling
failure along the train, driving regime and velocity is comparatively discussed related to the values
from the previous period. Load status, as well as the length and mass of the trains in the extended
collection, correspond to a certain distribution. Causes of failure and damages to coupling and
draw gear indicate spe...cific conditions leading to failure. Analysis significance helps the
systematization of failure features and sets the ground for defining the parameters that impact
failure and determining their quantification.
