Review 1 for Wikipedia:GLAM/PoliMi/2024

I reviewed the topic "Rail vehicle resistance". Congrats, such an interesting topic and well referenced. I've just corrected few lexical typos. I could suggest to add some final sections, such as a "See also" section where to put useful links within other wikipedia pages, or an "External links" section to put useful links and webpages related to the topic outside Wikipedia. Thank you! Wolf230318 (talk) 12:31, 12 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you so much, I added the See also section. Xebe22 (talk) 14:59, 12 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Review 2 for Wikipedia:GLAM/PoliMi/2024

I reviewed the article. I found it interesting and well written. I have just corrected a few misspells. Besides that to improve the article I could suggest to add more real-world example that could benefit an average reader. Also a more experienced reader could appreciate an idea on how the coefficients for the resistance equation can be estimated without experimental data (if it is possible obviously). In any case congratulation for the article. --FedeJ12 (talk) 12:44, 12 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks, I added a paragraph about that. Xebe22 (talk) 14:59, 12 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Review 3 for Wikipedia:GLAM/PoliMi/2024

I have read your article related to "Rail vehicle resistance". I've found it very interesting. It could be useful to add some "External links" or "Bibliography", if available, in order to deepen more the topic. Thank you! Ilmaggio98 (talk) 12:44, 12 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I added the See also section at the end. Thank you so much. Xebe22 (talk) 15:00, 12 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Observations and suggestions for improvements

The following observations and suggestions for improvements were collected, following an expert review of the article within the Science, Technology, Society and Wikipedia course at the Politecnico di Milano, in July 2024.

Very clear summary. A section on the importance of different coefficients could be added. For example, at high speeds the coefficient A is negligible while the C is more important. For this reason it is important for train manufacturers to develop models for the numerical estimation of the coefficients to optimize consumption during the design phase.
