Prediction of the press-fit curve in the assembly of a railway axle and wheel

Last updated on 27 October 2014 1:21

A methodology for the prediction of the press-fit curve in the assembly of a railway axle and wheel is described. It starts from friction measurements on samples taken directly from the two components. A new apparatus, adaptable to a common axial testing machine, was developed for this aim: it permits...
