Reduction of lateral forces between the railway vehicle and the track in small-radius curves by means of active elements

This paper deals with a possibility of reduction of guiding forces magnitude in small-radius curves by means of active elements.These guiding forces characterize the lateral force interaction between the rail vehicle and the track and influence the wear of wheels and rails in curves.Their magnitudes are assessed in the framework of vehicle authoriz
