Review of wheel/rail force, macro-creep relationships during braking reported by BR, SNCF and DB up to mid-1985 (TM-PBS-103)

Last updated on 23 April 2013 10:07

The work reported here summarises the available test results on the effect of wheelslip on wheel/rail friction during braking. The results take the form of relationships between wheel/rail force and macro-creep. This work has been carried out by the French and West German railways (SNCF and DB) and by British...
