Stability study of tank containers placed on a roll-trailer during transportation by railway ferry

The article presents the results of determining the dynamic load of the load-bearing structure of the tank container placed on a roll-trailer during transportation by railway ferry. For this purpose, a mathematical model was developed, which takes into account the dynamic loading of the tank container during angular displacements of the railway ferry. It is taken into account that the roll trailer is rigidly fixed on the deck, and the tank container and the liquid cargo in the boiler have their own degrees of freedom. The obtained accelerations are taken into account when calculating the stability of the tank container on the roll trailer. Thus the stability of the tank container is provided at lurch angles to 240. The carried-out researches will allow increasing safety of transportations of tank-containers on railway ferries by the sea, and also the efficiency of functioning of combined transportations in the international communication.
