Abstract:Purpose
The purpose of this study is to match appropriate friction coefficients for subway operational vehicles, considering the dynamic variations of wheel profile wear.
Design/methodology/approach
This study combines experimental testing and numerical simulation to investigate the influence of wheel profile wear coupled with the friction coefficient on the vehicle dynamic response.
Findings
For the test route in this paper, it is recommended to control the friction coefficient on straight sections betwee… Show more
