OVERVIEW OF DESIGN FEATURES OF TANK CARS

The study objective is to find a promising development direction in tank engineering. To achieve this goal, it is necessary to analyze existing engineering solutions, as well as to consider trends and limitations in the development of the domestic tank stock, and it is especially important to consider the design solutions used abroad. The paper includes the result of collecting and subsequent analysis of data on the design features and engineering solutions used abroad. When working with the obtained data, the most rational design option was determined, requiring a more detailed study of specific unites using computer modeling methods.
