Abstract:Since no effective experimental approaches have been proposed to assess state of stress and distribution of pressures at the wheel and rail contact interface to date, numerical calculation methods are known as an alternative to approximate modelling of wheel-rail interaction. In this paper, a numerical procedure is proposed based on the finite element method of the complex tensions state on wheel-rail contact. This study includes the distribution of pressures and tensions on wheel-rail contact system with new … Show more
