Out-of-round railway wheels—wheel-rail contact forces and track response derived from field tests and numerical simulations

Last updated on 28 October 2014 9:36

The influence of different types of railway wheel out-of-roundness (OOR) on the vertical dynamic wheel-rail contact force and track response is investigated through extensive field tests and numerical simulations. The response from a freight train, provided with a number of different types of severe wheel tread damage, is studied. Two...
