INFLUENCE OF FASTENING METHOD OF WHEELED ARMORED VEHICLE ON FLAT WAGON FOR FORCES TRANSMITTED BY LASHING ELEMENTS

During the transportation of cargo on the type Slmmps wagon platform, significant attention is paid to securing the transported load on a given wagon platform, primarily based on the imposed loading instructions. In the subject literature, there are no direct computational analyses on the forces acting on a specific type of cargo with a given mass, particularly under critical conditions. This article presents an analysis of the security of an armored vehicle in a platform wagon under critical conditions. Securing analysis was conducted for two fastening methods: the cross method (with a large strap angle relative to the direction of travel) and the straight method (with a small strap angle relative to the direction of travel). On the basis of these fastening methods, an assessment was made of the security of the transported cargo in the form of an armored vehicle. Armored vehicles are most commonly secured using the cross-fastening method with four securing straps. This study compares the force magnitudes concentrated on the securing straps in the cross-fastening and straight-fastening methods.
