Capacitive and inductive coupling systems today are used only for short-range special purpose systems.
British locomotive-hauled passenger carriages adopted a dual coupling system in the 1950s.
The tensional load of drawing the train (draft force) is carried by the coupling system.
In addition to a different gauge, this series was equipped with an automatic coupling system.
I return to the thoughts earlier in this chapter that decoherence requires coupling systems and the loss of phase information.
Notable differences include different voltages, loading gauge, coupling systems, signalling and control systems.
The cause, transit officials said, was a defect in shock absorber of the R-44 car's coupling system, which connects one car to another.
They were unable to operate with any other stock due to their new coupling system.
This is because the coupling systems for the tracks and trains were different.
A sensory substitution system consists of three parts: a sensor, a coupling system, and a stimulator.
