Wheel/rail noise : investigation of the modes of vibration of a static '36 inch' (914.4 mm) nominal diameter railway wheelset (IM-PHYS-071)

In the general investigation of the noise generated by railway wheels running on steel rails, it is essential to determine the modes of vibration of the wheels themselves, in order to determine the source of the noise, and to decide whether the resonant response of the wheels is a major...
