Structural performance of 117J tank cars and 117R variants under derailment conditions : final report. : T44-3/32-2023E-PDF
"This report describes the study performed by Sharma & Associates, Inc. (SA) for Transport Canada (TC) on the crashworthiness of various designs of rail tank cars. It describes several improvements to the methodology used in earlier work including the effect of temperature on material properties. The results are presented in terms of the estimated number of tank car punctures and top fittings failures in a range of accident scenarios"--Introduction, page 1 (first section).
