Structural and functional analysis of tank containers
Journal Title: Metallurgical and Mining Industry - Year 2017, Vol 9, Issue 1
Abstract
The article presents peculiarities and results of the structural and functional analysis of tank containers in order to identify potential areas of improvement of their structural and parametric images. To achieve this goal, the functions and design features of the tank containers and their constituent performances, as well as the particular stages of life cycle were comprehensively studied. Materials developed and presented in the article indicate promising development of using the tank containers as only in the railway, as well as in the multimodal transport. Thus, the further deployment of these areas makes it necessary to improve the design of tank containers in order to improve their technical, economic and operational indicators. The results obtained give reason for the need for creation and introduction in machine-building enterprises of Ukraine of new competitive domestic designs of tank containers.
