Abstract:

The Federal Railroad Administration’s Office of Research

and Development is conducting research into fuel tank

crashworthiness. A series of impact tests are planned to

measure fuel tank deformation under two types of dynamic

loading conditions – blunt and raking impacts. This paper

describes the results of the first set of blunt impact tests for two

retired EMD F-40 locomotive fuel tanks, Tank 232 and Tank

202.
