The search for the proper shape of TCs means that in this work, the evaluation of TC properties is based on select quantities and the generation of such a shape through the use of mathematically understood optimization methods. The studies presented have got a character of the numerical tests. For this work, advanced vehicle models describing dynamical track-vehicle and vehicle-passenger interactions as well as optimization methods were exploited. In the software vehicle model of a 2-axle freight car, the track discrete model, non-linear descriptions of wheel-rail contact are applied. This part of the software, the vehicle simulation software, is combined with a library optimization procedure into the final computer program.}, type={Artykuły / Articles}, title={Optymalizacja wielomianowych krzywych przejściowych z punktu widzenia wielkości zrywu}, title={Optimization of polynomial transition curves from the viewpoint of jerk value}, URL={http://www.czasopisma.pan.pl/Content/103338/PDF-MASTER/ace-2017-0012.pdf}, keywords={kolejowe wielomianowe krzywe przejściowe, symulacja komputerowa, optymalizacja, railway polynomial transition curves, computer simulation, optimization}, }
