Experimental Study on Effect of Failure of Yaw Damper on Ride Quality of Metro
This article chooses a metro yet for operation to investigate the effect of yaw damper failure on the ride quality of the metro.By removing the yaw damper to simulate its fault condition,the running stability and vibration characteristics of the vehicle before and after the removal of the yaw damper is studied.The experimental results show that the removal of the yaw damper has a significant impact on the ride quality of metro,especially on lateral stability.The more yaw dampers are removed,the more significant the increase in the stability indicators of vehicle operation.The failure of the yaw damper has a greater impact on the stability of the vehicle when it is running at high speed or passing through a straight line or a large radius curve.
