Axle Class

[This is preliminary documentation and subject to change.]

Axle class by Matej Pacha (c)2011, University of Zilina, Slovakia (matej.pacha@kves.uniza.sk) The class is used to manage and simulate axle forces considering adhesion problems. Basic configuration: - Motor generates motive torque what is converted into a motive force (through gearbox) or the motive force is passed directly to the DriveForce property - With known TrainSpeed the Update(timeSpan) method computes a dynamic model of the axle - additional (optional) parameters are weather conditions and correction parameter - Finally an output motive force is stored into the AxleForce Every computation within Axle class uses SI-units system with xxxxxUUU unit notation
